1925 LAUGHS AT HATS
 WORN BY MEN IN 1925

BERLIN, April 4.-Men's hats of olden days afforded the Berlin public much amusement during the recent exhibit of clothing, held to contrast the styles of the last 100 years with the styles of today.
 High hats, much taller than those worn today, and as shaggy as New foundland dog, appeared in the win dows of many haberdashers. Curious straw hats loaned by museums also produced broad smiles among the throngs which gathered about show windows. Many of these were shap- ed like old-fashioned silk hats, and were made of bamboo and oriental grasses.

Keep ShoyeIs of Silver
 And TroweIs of Gold

NEW YORK, Apr. 4.-What be comes of gold trowels after use at cornerstone layings, or of silver picks and shovels after being used to break ground for some new fane or public work? These commemora- tive tools almost invariably end up in the archives or strong rooms of the institutions concerned, where they are carefully preserved, say manufacturing jewellers in answer to questions arising since Mayor Hylan recently used silver to turn the first earth for new subway division.
 Jewellers say these implements de luxe could scarcely be thrown aside or melted up again, their material and artistic, as well as sentimental value, being too high.
 gold trowell, for all it has but a few brief minutes of actual use, costs as much as $1,5OO, according to the price lists. Silver trowels command $15O; silver-plated, $50 A pick or shovel fashioned out of solid silver would stand any committee open ing day arrangements good $500; even a plated tool cost $150.
 Though the metal itself might be reclaimed, jewellers say, not so the art work the best of these souvenirs represent. The chased work and en- graving, the latter giving names Of dignitaries and an inscription of the event, reveal workmanship of a high order and would make them priZed among collectors.
 As proof of sentimental worth, jew el2rs report that gold trowe :, used at the laying of cornerstones of church es. ale usually placed afterwar1 with the old communion sets.

Presents for Him.

i This isn't going 10 be a list of what
the we'll regulated man would like for
Christmas, girls.
You know perfectly we'll that even
after you've read those lists, and
made notes and estimates and every
thing. you go right out and buy him
the same old shaving set, or handker-
chiefs or neckties or books. So I'm
| not going to waste my time giving you
! the low-down on what he really wants.
But my message today has to do
with that vulgar business-expense.
What is the germ that lodges in
every girls mind about two weeks be-
fore Christmas, and starts spelling
the entire outlook for her?
It's germ called false pride and it
can make a self-conscfous young thing
miserable for weeks-it can rob her
of all the pleasure of giving.
She wants to give him something
nice. But she hasn't very much money
and she knows he has quite a bit.
She realizes that his family and
most Of his friends will give him
rather costly things and she reflects
sadly that her little present will look
pretty cheap next to the gold cigarette
case handed him by Aunt Jennie.
So she sits down and begins to
even if she had enough money, her
mother would never in the world let
her spend that much on a boys pres
ent-stlll she feels that to shine in his
eyes she ought to ante up with come
think pretty grand.
In the end. she dasheS off and buys
him something more expensive than
she can afford-presents it to him
with the remark that she knows he

lief when Christmas is over. and for
gotten.
All of which is perfectly ridiculous.
For you must know. girls, that You
can't possibly find out exactly what
he wants for Christmas.
The only way you can be sure to
satisfy him is by sending a fat check.
and since that is prohibited by all the
books of etiquette. the next best thing
is to give him something that will
show you've spent some thought as
we'll as cash on it's selection.
Don't save all your pennies and
think you're going to make a hit with
the elusive male by the costly grand
eur of your gift.
If he's in love with you, he'll regret
that you've spent more than you could
afford on him-when you might have
bought things for yourself.
II he's not in love with you, he ii
secretly think that you've shown
rather poor taste in lavishing any
thing so eXtravagant on a casual
friend
Either way you lose. So it's better
not TO try to pull a Rockefeller as you
set about buying the great Christmas
present.
Honestly. try to get something for
him which you think he needs or
wants. Don't buy him a solid gold
toothpick and say to yourself: We'll,
even if he doesn't want a toothpick.
this one is solid gold. and he ought TO
appreciate that"
Show good sense and good taste in
your selection and he can't fail to APP
preciate that far more than he would

What Tomorrow Means to You

The planetary aspects of tomorrow
are fairly favorabl for the customary
observances and usual recreations of
a Sunday. In the afternoon, however.
there are some adverse indications
that denote righteousness, inpa-
thence and a desire to argue II these
unfavorab influences are overcome
and they can be by the exercise of
willpower-there will be little or
nothing to mar the happiness of the
day and the contentment that will be
engendered.
Children born tomorrow are des-
tined. according to the signs, to be
normally healthy as infants. and the
minor ailments from which they suffer
will. at no time, occasion alarm. The
indications point to a good physical
maturity. Their dispositions will be
variable. At times they will be cheer
full, bright and frolicsome. At other
times, and without any warning Of the
approaching change. they will be mo-
rose. taciturn and hard to get along
with They will apply themselves with
assiduity to their studies, and at all
times should be encouraged to asso-
ciate freely with friends of similar
age to their own.
If tomorrow is your birthday you
are bold to the point of recklessness.
venturesome and fearless, and you
act quickly and impulsively. You
rather look upon life as a gamble.
and you take chances which others
would fail to do. In most instances
Fortune has smiled and your projects
have met with a fair share Of sue
cess. You, however, are liable to
bank too much on past performances
and are prone to rush at speculative
risks that may entail disaster.
Your friends, as a result OF your
genial disposition, are many, and
none have every appealed to you in
vain for assistance. You also enjoy
the trust and esteem of the COM
munity in which you live, and your
VOWS and judgment are respected.
Your home life should be very
happy, as you always make light of
the little trifles that cause annoyance
to others of a more conservative
character.

pal Bishop Of Massachusetts,: John II.
