1t is predicted that in a few years
all men will be wearing high silk hats.
The high silk hat, the two quart hat,
Must it give up it's lofty mission
OF publishing the tidings that
It's wearer occupies Position?
The lid which, once or twice a year,
Was absolutely necessary,
Must it now, every day, appear
On every Tom and Dick and Harry :?
Alas! Hereafter, we shall not
Know who is who, or who is what?
Today it marks the rich and great,
Or those who hope for such a status.
The statesman and the candidate,
Impress us when they wave it at us.
With irohed brim and silken sheen
1t challenges our admiration,
And adds flip to the mien
OF all who hold important station.
But ah! it's glory will be dead
When it appears on every head!
When chauffeur, plumber, porter, clerk,
When thinkers, husbandmen and tam
ehers,
In going to their daily work,
Affect this badge of better manners,
How shall we know, in park or street,
At worship, or at public meeting,
Which of us are the towns elite,
Or where ambitions heart is beating
A high silk hat on every one!
Society, thou art undone!

Stewards Washington Letter
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer

WASHINGTON - Thirty pounds OF
INT in it's vitals are too much for any
tanks digestion. There was a war
time idea-not shared in by tank crews
that tanks were practically invulner-
able. The fallacy of this theory has
been amply demonstrated in the last
few days at the Camp Meade (Md)
tank school.
Camp Meade is 25 miles from Wash
ington and about five miles from any
where which is very fortunate. "a
high charge of still higher explosive
doesn't blow big tank into scrap
metal with any advantage to the neigh
borhood. Doors, bolts, manhole covers,
cogs, cams and assorted steel fragments
fly about two city blocks in every
direction. IS
Even at a distance Of two blocks,
approximately The range from which
the firing is done, the officer who
pushes the BUTTON dives for cover the
minute he's pushed it.
Lieutenant Colonel H. L. Cooper, in
charge at the tank school, wanted to
find out just how much a tank really
can stand.
SO he got five obsolete and valueless
tanks and undertook to learn by actual
experiment Under, on and against
them-just like artillery hits-he placed
the equivalent, in INT and a new ex-
plosive called triton" of shells of vari-
Gus sizes.
Firing these charges electrically he
got results far from reassuring to any
soldier who may previously have
thought he could go into battle in
tank in absolute safety.
Colonel Cooper had no tanks left
