planned that he had been DELAYED by
illness and that his honeymoon had
nothing to do with his failure to
appear.

open and Mrs. Edouard Albion, wife

tryman, Feodor Chahapin. who is now

If we need to have it expounded to
us that government is not so impor-

in the White House is about as likely
to do harm as good at the present time,
then Mr. Harding is a good candidate.
For any period where leadership is
not important he is pretty good. 1t
may be that two years from now lead

it does at present. In that case the

Edge had already picked Runyon,
and placing Mackay as president of
the Senate, left him there wondering.
At the dinner of compliment ten
dered Mackay at Trenton at that time,
it was understood that it was both a
dinner acknowledging his leadership
in the Legislature, and a public ac-
Acknowledgement of his being the next
candidate for governor. What took
place at that dinner was enough to
make a horse laugh. Runyon was
there and in compliment to his pres
ence he was asked to speak He did.
He said that more notable example
of the party hero never existed than
Senator Mackays. He had been the
acknowledged party nominee for gov
ernor, but that in order to restore
party harmony in certain directions,
and to insure party success at the
polls he had consented to withdraw
from the race for governor in favor
of him, "myself-Runyon." Mackay
stood aghast. He had never agreed
to any such thing. He had never
thought of it, in fact, for it had never
been brought up before. Senator
Edge had assured him he would be
the party candidate. And now at this
dramatic moment when the heart of
the party sat at the banquet table to
acclaim him as the next governor,
along comes Runyon, groomed by
Edge to pull off this theatrical stunt,
and so poor Mackay was left high and
dry, only to fall" for Edge again in
the highway fight which ended in such
dismal defeat for the whole shee-
bang. Gratitude? Why, it looks as
though Edge did not know it's mean
ing Poor Mackay has again been
made the goat.
Mr.. Mackay is man enough to pad
die his own canoe, and if he will take
his own counsel and lean on few
of his admiring friends he will go
along far better without any further
dependence on fake promises.

REJECT FRENCH GOWNS
Germany Forbids Importation
Since Occupation of the Ruhr.

Berlin.-Lrieda and Gretchen are to
to be no more smart little hats brought
to Germany from the fashionable mil
linery, shops on the Place Vendome
and the Rue de la Paix.
These articles are not permitted to
cross the German boundary since the
the leaders of the German fashion in
dustry have instructed their buyers
that French models are not to be
bought either directly or indirectly.
High prices in France had prevented
German firms from buying many
models. Consequently the importa
tions Of such finery from France had
been inconsiderable as compared to
prewar times. But Berlin modistes
were slowly resuming their Paris trips
and buying limited quantities Of late
creations, when the Ruhr trouble came
along and brought the general boycott
against articles made in France.
Baron Dseecoll, managing director Of
one of Befain's greatest fashion shops,
said that this latest prohibition. will
make little difference to Berlin de-
signers, as they have not relied directly
on Paris for their styles since the be-
ginning of the war and have, to a
great extent, become creators Of their
own models.
"Of course, many of our ideas come
from Paris. 1t is foolish to deny that
Paris leads in the creation of modes" :"
declared the baron. But Germany has
learned to develop Partisan sugges-
tions and adapt them. In many cases
they are greatly modified as Partisan
designs are often too extreme for our
trade. The prohibition against. the
importation of French goods will affect
modistes and milliners only in two
lines, silk and flowers. 1t Is difficult to
replace certain French silks and
| flowers"
Vienna and Berlin have been work
| ing together in the development Of
modes since the beginning of the
| World war. Because Of the low ex-
| change they have been successful in
developing a considerable trade for
model gowns in the Scandinavian coun-
| tries, the Balkans and central Europe.
American and French fashion maga-
zines have been the source of many
ideas for the German and Austrian
fashion creators. They also send their
representatives to the great watering
places on the Riviera and have little
difficulty In keeping up with the latest
French ideas.
