JUST LIVING.

We are all better for an occasional
song, and sometimes someone else exl
presses for us just the things we have
felt but not been able to put into
words. In new book called "The
Home Road'' Martha Haskell Clark
has the following poem which appeals:
Just living, day by day, with eyes that
fall
In mute content on simple home
sweet things,
The ember glow that reddens on the
wall,
The homing swerve of friendly April
wings;
Cloud shadows dappled dark on field
and hill,
Gray dusk that folds golden win

WATCH FOR ARTIFICIAL SILK.


In talk on artificial silk recently
Miss Edna Irene Avery, who ha'
charge of the textiles work for thu
home economies department at tAt
State College of Washington said:
Recently the newspapers announced
the death of great inventor. 1t was
Count Chardonnet who sought and
found a way to put together artifi
cally little celluIose, some strong
acids, and by adding alcohol and eth
er, make fiber so beautiful that il
rivals silk and so has received the
name artificial silk" because made
in laboratory and not by nature Is
laws of creation.
This fiber has become so desirable
and necessary that it now ranks in
Importance with the four principle
fibers, Wool silk, cotton and linen.
1t is even thought that it will super
cede some of these good old standbys,
and for this reason makers and users
of artificial silk are seeking better
name for it.
A committee was called, which de-
cided upon "rayon' as name which
described the fiber and yet had no
connection with words of common
usage. !.
We find this artificial silk mixed
in many Of the new fabrics for spring.
When mixed with wool or cotton 1t is
easily recognized by its simmer, and
it adds materially to the beauty of
the cloth. 1t is never concealed in the
weaving, as cotton is sometimes when
put into wool, but is brought to the
surface, for it has nothing to hide and
everything to give. Since it is cheaper
than true silk, one can purchase bet
ter appearing material at not too great
cost. 1t is, however, frequently mixed
with true silk and then it is not so
readily detected, and the consumer
may find herself paying the price of
real silk for the manufactured variety.
This is much the case with hosiery
and undergarments, for when the ar
tificial yarn is knitted it seems to
true silk better than when it
Is woven.
Among the arguments for artificial
silk, are the facts that real silk turns
yellow with age, while the artificial
remains white. Real silk rots with
and artificial silk does
not. Artificial silk is not weighted
with metallic salts as real silk is apt
to be, and therefore outlasts the gen.
zine fiber.
The housewives only protection at
present, perhaps, is to buy hose made
BY reliable firms and sold by reliable
merchants. The labels should stipu-
late either "real sikh or artificial
,ilk. = When the term "silk'' is used
alone, one should be cautious, for there
ire manufacturers who make use of |
llusive terms to label their products,
IN unless the general public is aware
If the fact, they are often induced to
,uy an imitation article. The same
hing applies to silk underwear.

 Britain Causes Surprise
 Great Brtain's dramatic an nouncement yesterday of her read- ness to accept compulsory arbitra- ton on the provision that she would not be brought into court because of some act of her navy, performed in attempting to maintain or re- store peace in pursuance of sane tions taken under the league of ma tions, continues to be the supreme topic of discussion among the dele gates to the assembly.
 It has strengthened the hopes that a pact of sanctions will hc constructed to enforce order against any country which refuses 10 arbi- trate a dispute. However, it is also recognized that the British sugges- ton is so far-reaching in nature that 1t may open up a great variety of questions, involving the freedom of the seas.
 Stresses League Leadership
 Behind the British suggestion and the possible conclusion of a pact of sanctions is the fundamen- tai idea that henceforth the league shall become an important direct ing international body dedicated to the preservation of world peace, with all its members cooperating for the maintenance of that peace against any aggressor.
 The league assembly has taken a holiday until next week. Today and tomorrow are heinz devoted 10 work in the committees in an en- deavor to make some progress on the problems of arbitration, secur- ity and disarmament.
