FASHION FADS|
| ANDFANCIES |
BY Mildred Ash

~ oNCEALING their gayety
the demure. maidenly coats
~ Of alI-white silk crepe or
cloth appear very modest and re-
firing. This is only until their
lively Innings are revealed-these
fairly shrek aloud, being Of the
most vividly colored plain or
printed crepe de chine.
Feminine frills distinguish the
newest long mousquetaire gloves
of white glace kid. An elabor-
ately perforated ruffle extends
along the side seam, all the way
up to the elbow.
An interesting heading Is the
close-fitting toQue Of black Milan,
tightly draped in tan suede with
large cut-outs through which
shines the black patent leather
facing.
A new trick is performed by
the versatile scarf that is Of the
same cloth 4as the spring. coat
which it trims. Formerly merely
a collar feature, the4scarf, which
hangs to the knee, now frequently
forms the. sleeves Of the latest
spring wrap. Such a design is
Of extraordinary grace and dis.
tinction.
Peeping inside the coat or
jacket Of the tailored suit, one
discovers that the scarf is just
as popular for town wear as 1t is
fo1 sports. The opened wrap in
variably revals striped, checked
plaid or printed scarf of home
spun, cashmere or silk.
A few drops Of ammonia in the
water used for washing windows
saves a great deal Of labor and
gives a brilliant polish.

this very intelligent piece of infcrma-

The governor must think Eugene
Debs and Jack Dempsey are heading
a couple of tickets which might be
taken into consideration in the cleo
tiOns when he picks either La Toilette
or Judge Davis for second place. The
Governor was applauded, no doubt,
when he made this wise observation.
But republicans-real republicans
who went through the ordeal yester-
day afternoon, shook their heads last
evening when they read the address
cf the Governor in the Helena evening

ally given all three candidates for

OUR DUTY is TO
SUPPORT A NEW
SYSTEM OF EDUCATION

Our duty, the duty of every citizen
and educator, is to support a new sys-
tenn of education The fine fabric of
that should be MORAL DEVELOP
MENT. The professional studies and
development should support the moral
side of the system. When we have ac-
cOmplished this, We may then properly
and sincerely boast of a true democra-
cy and free country.

in which the athletic coach was re-
ceiving fifty and sometimes a hundred
times as large a salary for his in
struction as the other instructors
Students, he stated, were passed
through college on their athletic
standing, and not on their intellectual
attainments. Athletics holds too
prominent a place in the modern col
lege. The ratio should be balanced.
College degrees are being distributed
broadcast, at present, and no mere
furnish an index to the real knowl-
edge of the holder than do the results
of the practices. 1t seems that all is
sacrificed for individual advancement.
There is no stress on common benefit
of the citizens of the country. When
a lawyer now days receives his LID.
he goes forth not to support the laws
of a nation, but to interpret these
laws to the best of his personal adj
vantage. Law used to be a noble pro-
fession with a few noble people to
uphold it. Now it is a complex study
under which the student can control
his fellow man in almost every in
stance. Morals do not enter in.
The WHITE MANS BURDEN is to
support not only the professional
lines of education, but also the moral
education Of a nation. On the should
ers of a few individuals is placed the
burden of fighting against sething,
ignorant population, which stubbcInly
uphOlds its own advantage, and fights
for material individual gain. 1t is a
great problem which will tell its story
in the future. Politics, Morals,
science, all bow to the almighty dol
lar. Nothing is popular now which
does not contribute toward coming
money, the stuff with which we buy
our debauchery.
Morals are not predominant in our
makeup. The father sends his son
forth into the world to make his for
tune. He does not as a rule say:
"SOn, whatever you do be honest.
Only honest toll is dignifed. See
that you support that rule. It is not
the money you make, but how you
make it." But he usually says: "Son,
l am sending you out to make your
pile" l want you to come back a
millionaire. That would do my old
heart good. Nc matter what methods
you use, make the money" That is
the way we are following the great
moral laws set forth by our knowledge
of right and wrong.
