UNITED ties for women! This
N is gratifying piece Of news
flashed straight from Fashionland.
Come to think of it, how self-sacrihc-
Ing we of the feminine gender have
been to grant, as we have in the past,
to mere man a monopoly in so delect-
able an accessory to ones attire. AT
last the bond Is broken. Aided and
abetted by Mistress Fashion, we Of
the gentler sex have declared for
equal rights when It comes TO knitted
ties. In proof of our independence
we are haunting the handsomest, most
gorgeously colored ties knitted art can
produce.
Now that the knitted tie has found
its place in the feminine mode, we are
exercising our new privilege to the
fullest extent With the tailored suit
with the one piece cloth coat dress,
we are wearing a contrasted or har-
moni1ed tie as the case may be, while
1t is the finishing touch to the blouse,
the slip-over sweater and the knitted
iacquette. or course il is perfectly
stunning with the now SO fashionable
knitted sports coat which most every
one is wearing those hrisk wnuy
days

fective a knitted tie can look with one

are quite the rage just now. study the

BURNING WASTE LAND
MENACE TO WILDFOWL

The practice in some sections of
burning over waste land and marshes
during April and May frequently re-
cults in great destruction OF bird life
and birds nests and eggs, particularly
on marsh lands where wild ducks
breed, according to the Biological
Survey of the United States Depart
,Inent of Agriculture. The department.
suggests that where il is at all pos
sible the growth should be left alone,
or the marshes burned previous to the
ARRIVAL OF the birds or the building of
the nests, which would be. generally
speaking, in February and March. In
many instances the burning is un-
necessary and no good purpose is
served by 1t. Due to the draining OF
numerous areas throughout the coun-
try for agricultural purposes. suitable
breeding places for birds are con-
gtantly becoming fewer In number
and for this reason the unnecessary
burning over of waste lands and
marshes should he discouraged every

AUTO TOURIST "HOTELS,

A new kind of hotel is being
built nowadays. 1t is called the
"Rodome," contraction from
Road Home" and is for the spe-
cial convenience of motor tour
lists.
Last year saw a phenomenal
increase in the number of auto
parties taking long trips. The
machines themselves are better
able to stand the journeys than
ever before. and accommodations
have been improved in every part
OF the country.
So the logical step was the Ro-
dome. Many of them are being
built now on the Pacific Coast,
and doubtless they soon will
spread all over the country.
The Rodome has its little col
ony of stores, it provides facili-
ties for the care of the auto, and
its arrangements for taking care
of guests, most of whom usually
prepare their own meals. are said
to be excellent. The charge, too,
is low for the accommodations.
The significant thing, however,
is that auto touring has become
recognized as an institution. We
no longer marvel at the man who
announces that he is going to
drive across the continent; we
merely start wishing that we
could go along ourselves. The
country IS smaller today than it
ever was: we are, in fact, neigh
bors with all our hundred mil
lion fellow citizens.

WHAT MIR. WOOD would DO

Representative VIII Rs w Gods
Of Indiana, has promulgated a re-
markable doctrine regarding the
lame duck" question. Mr.. Wood
says that when a candidate for
public Office is beaten, that he is
beaten, and that's all there is to
it. The Indiana representative
further threatens to carry his
proposition to the White House
i'll protest TO President Harding
over the suggested appointment
of Senator Harry S. New to the
cabinet. Mr.. Wood AYERS that he
supported Senator New in last
years primary campaign. but
that the voters of Indiana settled
Mr.. News status when they gave
the nomination to Albert Bev-
eridge. Therefore, insists Mr..
Wood, in obedience to the peo-
pies mandate, Mr.. New should
say farewell to Washington and
go home to Indiana.
But as a sort of offset to Mr..
Woods declaration, we find Gov.
Warren T. McCray of Indiana
writing a letter to the President
in which he says 81 believe also
! can say truthfully that a large
majority of Indiana Republicans
are in thorough sympathy with
you and your administration and
are perfectly willing to trust your
judgment in the selection of your
cabinet members" Coupled with
the fact that a number of mem
bers of the Indiana State Senate
saw fit to send their endorsement
of Senator New to Mr.. Harding
i'm m d a tely following Mr..
Woods pronouncement, it would
appear that the latter gentlemen

trine to Lame ducks" of pack
