Far off, in tha dark and dismal

front Of his dim den. Near him
the Bob Cat was curled up, trying

he was much ashamed.

"Well, I have a feeling that l

mewed the Bob Cat.
"Have patience, my friend, "
spoke the Wolf. ''Whcn l catch
Uncle Wiggily, which l shall surely
do today, you may have some nib

The Bob Cat said that was very
kind of his friends, but he want
ed to know how the Wolf was 60

This way answered the Wolf,
looking through the bushes to make
sure no one heard him. "This is

THE CAVE MANS KIDS

Here is and Inspiring note in the field OF
education President Osborn of the American Museum
of Natural History who knows mankind all the way
from Fifth Avenue back to preglacia wants to
given modern children the advantages of the old trog
lodyte kids.
'"The cave boy certainly had advantages which our
boys have ceased to enjoy argues this scientist He
was surrounded all sides by vibrant nature full OF
inspiring and wonderful phenomena, which filled him
with reverence and awe.
His father and mother, at least in the Gro
Nagnon period, carefully instructed him not only in
flint making but in the rudments of art, while his
sisters taught him to and cook. Education was
part of his daily struggle for existence The boys
survival depended his aptness in working, in learn
ing and in imitation
The modern boy, with all his determination, must
have instructive appreciation of those ancient bene
fits Give him half chance and he digs himself
cave and reves every form of wild life that he
find or initiate, and learns for himself the things
pre,priate thereto.
Think of this, when the kid off and play
cave man or Indian. They're just trying to overcome
their handicap of modern civilization.

HEARST REPLIES
TO N. Y. CHIEF
Publisher Reiterates Charge That
Smith Dragged in Ku Klux
Khan

NEW YORK. Sept. William
Randolph Hearst last night counter
ed Governor Alfred Smiths deun-
ciatory letter Of last night by reiter
atlng his charge that the governo,
dragged in the Ku Klux Khan in on
posing Mayor Hylan's campaign for
reelection and by repeating his
statement that Governor Smith con-
nlved with William G. McAdoo TO
bring about the nomination of John
w. Davis at the last democratic ma
ional convention.
In a statement telegraphed from
Los Angeles to Joseph A. Moore, of
the New York American, a Hearst
paper, he replied to which he char
acteriZed as a "vulgar TRADE that
any resident of billingsgate or any
occupant of the alcoholic ward in
Bellevue could have written"
Governor Smith in his statement
had referred to the earlier charges
of Mr.. Hearst in his local newspaper
by saying: "Mr. Hearst's entire
statement is a lie"
Governor Smith declares that he
did not say that Mavor Hylan was n
Ku KluXer he merely intimated it,"
Mr.. Hearst wrote
The difference in statement is
only one Of trickery and cowardice.
Either Mayor Hvlan is a Ku Kluxor
or he is not. If he is one, Governor
Smith should have had the courage
to say so directly. If he is not ono.
Governor Smith should not have
shown the contemplate political
trickery to imply it indirectly"
Governor Smith says that he did
not meet Mr.. McAdoo at the Ritz
hotel in rooms of Mr.. Nixon, the ex-
Tammany boss, and the ten cent
fare appointee of Governor Smith
do not know who paid for the
rooms-Perhaps it was the Morgan
interests-but | do know that Co.
ernor Smith did meet Mr.. McAdoo
at the Ritz hotel, and agreed upon
Mr.. Davis as compromise candi-
date as every guest of the hotel
knew at the time and as every en-
ployee of the hotel knew and openly
discussed.

10,000-ton cruiser is a small affair
compared with 3O,0OO-ton battle
ship, but leaving battleships out Of
consideration, the former is a decid T.
eddy formidable craft.
And this is the type of vessel
which the English and japanese are
now concentrating upon buildinr.
The upshot presently viii be the bic
navy folk predict, that while the
United States may remain, at least
theoretically, upon battleshjn
equality with England and some
what Japan's superior, she will be
relatively so weak in cruisers as 80
be, net, at a HOPELESS disadvantage.
To be sure, President COOLIDGE
plans to call another conference, to
limit cruiser-building, but the big
navy group doesn't believe there is
the remotest possibility England and
Japan will agree to this.
BY just one method, the bic
navyites think, does America stand
some chance of bringing the Eng
fish and Japanese to terms-by set
ting the English and japanese so hot
a cruiser-building pace that they
can't keep up with it. Rather than
be outbuilt, or strained beyond
their powers of financial endurance
by Americas greater resources, it's
foreseen that the two other peoples
would be willing to call halt all
round at some reasonable figure.
The aviation question will figure
in the controversy, but it doesn't
seem likely that those who declare
the plane has made surface fleets
obsolete can muster strength enough
at present to produce n serious I'M
preston.

|DISCOURTEOUS YOUTHS

Trio Who Abused Mayor For Not Giving Them Lift Express
 Regret.

Three youths who became abusive when Mayor A. NJ. Paonessa failed to stop his machine and give them a ride, came to the executives office in City hall this morning and of- fered their apologies, which were accepted by the mayor after he had given them fatherly advice.
 The boys were on West Main street signalling drivers going in a westerly direction. When they ad- dressed discourteous remarks to the mayor, he stopped his machine and caught one of the trio. He took the boy to police headquarters to question him as to his companions whereabouts and information was received which led to their appear ance at the office of Probation or fcer F. c. Connolly. Mir. Connolly suggested visit to the mayor and the boys agreed. One of the youths told the mayor this morning he re- gretted his actions the more when he learned his remarks were ad- dressed to the man who provided a swimming pool for bays.

YOU'LL SEE RED THIS FALL,
 AND PLENTY OF IT
By HoRTENsE SAUNDERS

Get ready for a hectic autumn, advises Henri Bendel. New York style authority.
 "All shades of red. scarlet, car mine, lipstick and red-purples, as well as rose and the most delicate pinks and apricot hues are receiving lavish fayors from Dame Fashion," he says.
 Whatever else may change be- tween now and fall, nothing can stop the wave of color that Is on the increase rather than the wane, de- spite the most fambuoyant summer in years.
 Apparently there is no end to the variety and combinations in colors. Contrasting shades that were always Before supposed to be pugritically inclined and had to be separated immediately before they started a riot have been tanned and brought Into complete harmony. There's no longer any color line drawn"
 After red In popularity come shades Of blue and green. he told me.
 Blue is another color that makes all the stops In between delicate azure blue and midnight blackness, with particularly popular stopovers at Indigo and lead pencil blue." he went on.
 But blue is a harder color to wear than red. It makes certain demands on the complexion. par ticularly In the brighter and harder shades, than red does, and for that reason has to run second.
 Green is shown in fewer shades than either red or blue. The soft graytsh greens are liked In wools and crepes for day wear, and the bright emerald and soft Nile shades are shown for evening""
 Hhe showed me a new creation, photographed today on Clara Joel, the actress, that Is typical of the newest mode. It Is of crepe Roma In the softest, loveliest shade of rose iIuds iIld Dlc'
 It has the new black fullness in- troduced by circular-tiered folds that point to form an irregular hem line. The scarf Is very interesting and may be wound about scarf fashion or tied in big bow in the front-in fact. you can do anything with It that your fancy suggests.
 The scarf still predominates," Bendel pointed out, and has made the fur neckpiece quite a superfuous acquisition this season. It offers the opportunity for variety that wo- men demand, and it keeps the sil- houette animated and changing. which is highly desirable. Also it keeps the shoulder line much trim mer and more slender than a fur possibly can"
 For evening, scarts of tulle and diaphanous materials are quite as important, he thinks.
 They give certain finish and suggestion Of the mysterious that every sophisticated woman loves VI he says. "They make 1t possible tc introduce originality and personalit
