FATE HANGS

Strike May Undo Recovery
From War-NeW Social
Structure Looms.
BY William Philip Simms

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The gen.
eral strike which began today in
Great Britain may alter the entire
political and social structure of Eng
land before it is done. Even If it
does not degenerate into civil war,
as Premier Stanley Baldwin warns,
it might. If it keeps up long enough.
Britain's recovery from the World
War will be knocked into a cooked
hat.
Only by almost super.human efforts
have the British been able to bal.
ance their budget and restore the
pound sterling to par, so IL the ma
tional income is seriously to be cut
into by the stoppage Of coal mines,
railroads. trains, ships, steel mills.
the textile industry and so on, the
effect will be incalculable.
Not a Mere Strike
This is true, regardless of which
side is right and which is wrong. A
few months of industrial revolution
or class war would undo every foot
Of ground gained since the armistice.
Nor is that all. The struggle in Brit
ain is no longer a mere strike in
volving wages and hours OF work.
The premier was only speaking
the truth when he told the House
Of Commons Monday that the Gov
ernment finds itself challenged by
an alternative government. What
he meant by alternative govern.
ment" he did not say. He probably
is not quite sure himself what the
alternative government" might be.
What happens must depend very
largely upon the situation of the
general strike, what direction it
takes, and so on.
AS matters now stand, the Bald
win government might easily be
toppled over by the labor and
liberal parties working together and
taking advantage of some favorable
turn. The conservatives, contrary
to the general impression, are in a
minority in the country though hold.

Gloves in Seasons Colors.

Formerly, when we wished to buy
gloves, we knew beforehand just what
lay in store for us. Not nowadays,
because gloves are made Of feathers
dyed in the seasons most fashionable
colors. And you know that II colors
change as often as women's tastes,
we should have weekly rainbows on
the glove counters.
Today women buy individual gloves
for every costume. The clever wom-
an knows a trick which may be use-
full to every one. AS you probably
know, q contrast is as attractive as
matching of color. By choosing
colors which will match one costume,
or more, and contrast with others, you
will add to your appearance at a rea.
sonable cost.
The two-clasp glove seems to have
returned to fashion, and it is popular
ip all Of the we'll known shades, such
as gray, black, white and champagne.
One Of the prettiest of the new models
is in glace kid in a new aubergine
shade, embroidered in red and black
on the back.
Gloves with diagonal, straight,
fringed, embroidered and petit point
cuffs are in vogue. Some Of these
gloves have novelty crocheted backs
in contrasting color. Others have
beautiful designs and embroideries on
the cuffs. The Partisan importations
Of petit point cuffs delight the eye.
There's a caution to be observed
Some women buy the cuff, and not
the glove. The glove will wear out,

not the cuff, and usually the cuff can
not be replaced on another glove.
Strength and durability should be
combined with beauty.
Mems gloves change very little from
time to time. At present there il q
tendency to favor the hand-sewed
glove because it usually wears longer
and fits better. The hAnd-sewed glove
is made up in higher priced leather
and costs considerably more than the
machine-sewed glove. Kid, buck,
mocha, suede, cape, and chamois are
still the popular dress feathers for
mems gloves. A new leather has
been brought out this season, cream
colored llama. It resembles chamois,
washes well, and is very durable.
1t doesn't take long for a dirty pair
or gloves to dry up and crack. Gloves
that are kept clean will outlast those
that are allowed to remain soiled. Dry
cleaning Is best for gloves. because
almost every leather will shrink and
harden in water. Washable gloves
should be washed on your hands, and
allowed to dry there for some time to
keep them in shape. Most stains, and
light colored gloves can be removed
with gasoline, but it is accompanied
by an unpleasant odor. After all,
gloves are worn for dress, and moth
ing that's soiled looks dressy. Gloves
should be kept clean and fresh.
We can't all afford to keep two
jumps ahead Of fashion, but we can
all anord to have neat pair Of gloves
for dress. Let others who can, vary
their cOlors, while you remain true
to your choice.

Crickets.

With each night getting clearer
and colder, and moving, with the
moving clock-hand Of the year, nearer
to frost, and as even the days have
a sweet tang of chill in them, the
crickets leave the grass and the soil
under the garden and tunnel through
the broken mortar around the edges
of chimneys, till they wriggle them
selves in to the warmth and COM
fort of the hearth.
4 cricket on the hearth, they say,
is good luck, and certainly its shrill,
sweet chirping brings to mind the
contentment of home and the eve
ming flreside that only the whistle
Of steam in the teapot and the soft
kissing of burning pine logs can
equal. But q cricket in the clothes
closet is not quite such a blessing,

killing crickets in the house. They
are almost as undesirable as clothes
moths, yet such merry little fellows
are they that 1t takes a hard heart
to crush life out of those pretty,
grotesQue little singers. l have tried
picking the cricket up and gently
putting him outside again, but there

His Little Slip.

A travelling salesman with q poor
knowledge of the distribution of wild
animals was sent to tropical Africa
to try to induce the negroes to use
steel razorS instead of stone ones. He
was not very successful in his at
tempts to change old tribal customs,
and his lack of sales caused his COM
pany to send him a peppery cable
gram asking why he didn't get busy.
Instead of admitting the reason, he
cabled back: Travelling delayed by
immense numbers of wild rhinoce-
roses, hippopotamuses, lions, ele-
plants and tigers"
The story sounded thin to his COM
pany, especially when some one sug-
gested that they wire him, There are
no tigers in Africa" Unabashed, the
salesman merely cabled back, Cancel
tigers"
