The First Long Trousers

MEN it's just 100 years since long trousers began 10
lNl come into fashion. Beau Brummel the celebrated
English society leader had introduced them few years
before His daring example had been copied by the dan
dies of the day But most held back, especially the
conservative substantial" ones.
They considered long trousers childish form Of mas
querade and afraid they would look ridiculous if they
abandoned neebreeches.
Today it's the other way around
After century the pendulum swings and knee-breeches
are coming back. They by golfers, engineers
and other of the outdoors and camping trips and
hikes.
Judging by and comfort, great many men-if
truth were known-would like TO knee pants" all

Why not? Alas in mems community association they
have acquired timidy and of shame in anything
not conforming to the crowd Long trousers still

teeth of convention and wear short ones.

Clohiers predict they will be commonly in offices

The Bubble Bursts

CONE months ago we warned against buying up old Ger
- man war bonds in the hope Of making a killing
What We predicted would happen, has happened The
bubble has burst The German government has decided
against any reyaluaton Of the old imperial war bonds
held by foreigners and if German holders thereot-and
there are many heavy losers-are given relief will be
only thru special assistance voted to them alone and by
way Of charity
So bonds which few weeks ago went soaring in this
country from nothing at all TO $500 TO the million
marks worth have already crashed back TO under $500
bringing heavy losses TO American holders. The slump
hardly stop there but there may be fluctuations due
to the fact that some will keep believing, anyhow
in the bag of gold at the rainbow's end.
The poet was right when he said hope springs eternal
And so was Barnum. who said il differently
