considerations.
But winter millinery that is ad-

following characteristics:
Most brims are off the face in

Turban. cloche and swathed

OF Fur and Felt
Distinctive and stunningly new
is the black white turban of fur
and felt that has the feeling OF the
wound handkerchief in the way it,
white felt swathes the head and
side, from the rear.
This turban combines many OF
the new features of fall millinery
in its chic smallness. The black
fur snuggles down over the head
to produce shallower crown eff
feet. the white felt unites with
the fur in manner to suggest
the beret and the complete crea-
ton achieves that tailored. close

Exotically stunning is the pic

with a Spanish bandeau Of ecru
lace. Here is the hat for a brides
maid, or for wear with a stunning
period frock to a formal afternoon
affair.

had sought safety only short

enough to make sure that no one
was watching that hole. Then he

raced and out along a long branch.

just across the line in Panama it
is 20 cents. Rentals everywhere in

The government also Is in the
wholesale business. Through the
commissary Of the Panama Railroad
company il sells all sorrs of sup
plies to shipsrof all nations. 1t repairs

and through the Panama Railroad,
even acts as commercial agent for

Canals Capacity Approached
Engineers and traffic experts say
that canal traffic is nearing capacity
and predict complications unless n
means is found to operate it safely
at night, or unless a second water
way is built. As is well known. the
United States owns a canal conces-
sion in Nicaragua. Early develop
ment Of this route appears to be de-
manded by the growth 90 commerce
and by military considerations.
There is considerable difference of
opinion among military and naval
authorities as to whether the United
States would be able to defend the
Panama Canal from capture in the
event Of war with a foreign nation.
IL two nations with strong navies
were to combine against the United
States, it is possible the American

This probably is the natural result
of the considerable extra-treaty au-

States since il began operation Of the
canal.
Fail TO Follow Example
Despite the good example set for
Panama by Uncle Sam in the Canal
Zone, the country is generally in a
backward state. To even the casual
visitor there is a marked contrast
in conditions in Panama City and
Colon. on one hand. and their YAM
Incorporated neighbors. Balboa and
Cristobal. on the other: and this
contrast IS amplified in the interior
in proportion to the distance from
the Zone.
The Canal Zone appears to the
visitor to be a socialistic state in
ideal form. The government owns
and operates everything: hotels,
apartment houses, hospitals, clubs,
recreation fields. public utilities, res
taurants. stores.
In Cristobal. for instance, there is
n ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS department
store that would be N source Of
pride to any city of $4,000. Every
thing from apples to zithers is sold,

and members Of the army and navy.
