Silk Stockings

There are ten times as many sill
stockings. and silk sox, worn today a.
there were a few years ago. First
the change from long TO short skirts
encouraged il and war wages made
IT possible. 1t is simply typical OF
the American well dressed women
and girls and the American well dres-
sed men and boys.
There is a wide difference between
attractive silk hosiery and no hosiery
at all, that is. going barefoot, or in
the coarse stocking and wooden shoes
OF foreign countries where wages are
from one-third TO one-tenth OF Am
erican wages.
1t IS the same with mems hats, col
lars silk ties and good shirts. Our
women wear CORRESPONDENCE good
and attractive clothes throughout.
This American apparel is not con-
fined to the rich. The Office or Tao
tory worker, male or female, dresses
about d. Ntil dS lit DOSS. VIC 40
not call good clothes a luxury either
we include them among the neces-
saries, just as W. do good food and
good homes.
In other words we are silk stock
ing nation, not barefoot nation, and
we want to continue a nation OF fully
employed, well paid people, who can
afford to get the good things OF life
and have considerable over for saw
ings and investments. An this only
possible under continued Protection

Vote Republican

Republicans and other friends oil
good government should vote the
Republican ticket This is the safe
way to record your belief in sound
isan question. LaFollette fathers a
temporary movement, a damning sys-
TEN OF class prejudice. He is not a
Progressive, as was Roosevelt. He
showed this in 1912.
On his attempt against the consti-
tuition and his espousal of government
ownership OF railroads he is now
trying to back up.
John w. Davis cannot be elected.
But LaFollettc. without hope OF cleo
ton, is a menace He is not a buiid-
er. as was Roosegelt, but he So ks.
as he has for thirty-iive years, to
destroy our precious heritage. James
X. Garfield, Theodore Roosevelt's
staunch supporter and friend, says of
Lafollette: HE only dares sugar
coat with mild radicalism, but were
ne ushered into power (Which he
could be by even carrying a few
states) the horde OF fanatics that
would be brought to Washington to
administer our government would
make every sane man and woman in
shudder."

Notes Cannot be Herded

The Socialist-third-party campaign
directors are claiming that large
blocks of organized votes will be cast
for LaFollette and Wheeler. These
claims are based on the fact that some
of the radical leaders of farm and
labor organizations are supporting
their ticket. But the voters cannot
be herded and driven like cattle. as
the following editorial in the Kan
sas Union Farmer, points out:
when the Railway Brotherhoocs
of the American Federation OF Labor
endorsed LaFollette good many
folks took II for granted that the third
party candidate would have the unit
ed support OF the working men OF
America. The truth is that there is
no organization, union. association,
church or secret society that can de-
liver all ITS votes TO one man or one
party. The Farmers Union cannot
vote its members. The average AM
eriean docs his own political think
ing. He may shcw signs OF herd

Not Another Roosevelt

LaFollette is not another Roosevelt
in any sense, nor did the Progressive
movement OF 1912 bear any real re-
semblance to the so-called Progr. y
sive movement OF 1924. incidentally
it is to be remembered that LaFollettc
bitterly opposed Roosevelt in the cam
paign OF 1912, and his State of Wis
consin gave TAFT two to one major
ity over Roosevelt. His following.
unlike Roosevelt's is not made up of
Republicans. but of Socialists and
others OF more or less radical views.

ASKED AND
ANSWERED

Q. Can a person be blind in on,
eye and conceal it from the public
or does a blind always show, or re
veal itself?
| Theodore Roosevelt became blind ir
one eye while he was President, the
result of mishap while boxing with
friend. He kept the secret for years
and no one suspected it. Many a
man or woman does not even wear
glasses. as did the ex-President, carry
a sightless eye unbcknown TO those
with whom they come in contact.
Q. In connection with this endless
urge for preparedness" please state
what was tine average percentage of
training in the service before our
soldiers went overseas?
American soldiers received an aver
age training of six months before go
ing overseas. and from two to three
months additional before going into
battle
Q. By what theory of consistency
is there Washington Monument and
a Lincoln Memorial in Washington
when both these illustrous men are
buried elsewhere?
A yankee will sometimes answer a
question by asking another one: so,
what could be more fitting than to
have this great monument and this |
great memorial in the Capital of the
Nation? 1t is not to be supposed that
either is to be regarded as a tomb
stone

The expression is one of Herbert
Hoover's.
Q. What is an atoll?
This name is applied by geologis;s
and others TO any one of the lagoon
islands or annuar coral reefs found in
the Pacific and the Indian Oceans, the
Red Sea, and some other parts OF the
tropics. An atoll is ring Of coral
rock, oval rather than circular in
form. One reaches eighty-nine miles
in its longer, by twenty in its shorter,
diameter; but in general they are OF
much more limited dimensions.
Q. Is bob-white the same as a
quail?
This bird is so named from his
note. In the North and East he is
called Quail; in the South and West
he is partridge, but he is generally
known as Bob-White
Q. What material is the fastest
track for racing automobiles-wood,
dirt, or pavement?
There are many elements that en-
ter into the speed obtainable from
the various surfaces The length,
shape and banking of the track det-
ermine whether it is possible to keep
a car wide open the entire way around
the track or whether it will be neces-
sary to shut off the motor at the
turns. The smaller tracks that is
one-half mile, are mostly built of
dirt Some of the larger tracks have !
paved surfaces, the one at Indiana !
polls being paved with brick. The
newer speedways such as Altoona.
Los Angeles, Kansas City, and Char
otto, North Carolina, are built of
wood They are one and a quarter
niles long and with high pitched |
banks, particularly on the turns. The
surface is of 2x4 boards, set on end.
These latter tracks are by far the
astest.

Why is his name associated with veg
tables and fruits?
Luther Burbank is a naturlist, an
originator of new fruits, flowers, etc.
lie was born at Lancaster, Massa-
husetts, in l849. He spent his boy
God on farm and was always de- !
