TO BOB OR TO BONNET
(Anderson, Ind, Herald) I

| (Anderson, Ind, Herald)
With all the changes of women's
styles - with the bobbed hair and
the new shape of hat, there is one
hat that has remained unchanged
and will probably remain so. The
hat is familiar to probably every
person in the land and is as much
| an institution as the organization
which wears it. 1t is the one worn
by the Salvation Army. 1t has
been the same since 1865 and it
carries with it the solution to
! many problems.
1t is said that bonnet wears a
Salvation Army lassie for six
years. That is one solution and
the other Is that because of it's
shape, it can only be worn with
hair which can be coiled up on the
back of the head. You have never
| seen a bobbed- haired Salvation
Army lassie. That is not essen
TALLY because the army objects to
that style, but because Of the thing
! stated above.
The usual question of whether to
bob the hair thus became to the
| army a question of whether to
bonnet. 1t is peculiar that this
should be true but to take away
the bonnet would take something
from the army. Every country
in the world knows that little
black bonnet with it's flowing
strings and it's band of black and
| red. Every country knows that
| the bonnet means service and pity.
The world honors the bonnet for
the things for which it stands and
| for what its wearers have done.
They know it in peace. They know
it in war. They know it in need
| and they know it when plenty
pours her favors in their laps. 1t
/; is the answer of the army to the
questions of the people and it will
beyond doubt remain the same
when the styles have changed and
changed again.

PARIS FURNITURE
(Buttle Daily Post)

Paris, it is reported, is about to
start an anti-antique movement.
The plan is to set the fashion in
scrapping Louis XIV furniture and
Danish forever Victorian effects in
Great Britain and America.
France hopes. after the Paris ex-
hibition now in preparation, that
the whole civilized world will come
to her, not for antiques. but for
modern art in household decora-
ton. -,
Perhaps not too many tears will
be shed at scrapping the furniture
styles of the various Louis periods,
but a world which is becoming just
little independent about Partisan
clothing styles may also prove
cool toward other dictated fashions
from that center. Nobody, how
ever, will object to taking a look
at the modern French, furniture

"Why how do you do. Poucher!
the little bird doctor said Hospitality.

How are you? You're looking fine"
Poucher never answered a word.
He just stood there like the Statue

In Which Everyone Was At Fault
The Iowa supreme court has re-
versed the commitment of an editor
for contempt Of court in saying of
Judge: "Filled with puerile person
alties and obiter dicta, his opinions
present a strained effort at humor
and sensationalism wholly unbecom-
ing in a Judge, who, Of all men,
should be the exuberance of his own
verbosity."
Doubtless, as to contempt of
court, the reversal was justified. But
there should be some tribunal to
hold such utterances as contempt of
the English language.
Courts must stand for a lot of
things, including the "lawese" in
which most of their proceedings are
conducted. If lawyers were incar-
cerated every time they committed
assaults on the English language,
there would be nobody left at large
to conduct the trials.
But newspaper men a. least should
leave their mother tongue in it's ma
tive simplicity and directness.
