however, important cxcep-
tons TO this rule and the pre-

Of them. Clothes undoubtedly
are much more ornate than
they have been, but they have
not reached a state of elab-
oration and fussiness where

may not wear bracelets in
such profusion as we did a
few years ago, VIC may not
wear earrings quite SO often
as we have at times in the
past, and we choose necklaces
and chokcrs of less conspicu-
Gus design-but undoubtedly
we shall all be prompted to
buy as much new jewclry this
spring and summer as ever

In the meantime the revival OF

traditional types OF jewelry.

What Your Eyes Tell

The oblong eye is said to in
dictate musical faculty or a rather
sensual nature, while the very
round eye indicates pride, jeal-
ousy and a stingy nature. Eyes
with a reddish cast are said to
betoken good nature and modesty.
Green eyes are said TO indicate
great capacity for love. while the
Hindu saying is that they belong
to those who are courageous
but foolish" The very pale blue
eye Is said by some to indicate
weak will. Deep blue eyes are
said to belong to persons posses
sing strong will power. ambition
and executive ability. Bright
blue eyes set rather far apart are
said to belong TO persons Of lit
erary ability. Almost all agree
that warm brown eyes indicate
affectionateness and a warm
heart. Brown-eyed persons are
said to be less ardent in love than
either black-eyed or blue-eyed n.
dividuals.
Eyes that turn decidedly down
ward at the side OF the face are
said to belong to pleasant per-
sons who are not very truthful.
While those that turn upward are
crafty and deceitful. The eye
that Is straight or nearly so Is
the perfectly honest eye. When
white shows under the iris there
Il nobility OF character. Eyes
placed very near together are
said 10 indicate bad temper and
jealousy. sometimes craftiness
and narrow-mindness and bigotry.
Eyes that are extremely far apart
indicate rashness combined with
good nature. The gray eye Is
said 10 indicate a high moral
character. Gray eyes are also said
to betoken an inventive genius

that Caraway of Arkansas, a Demo-
cratic Senator, Numbered last fall by
a sighting reference to this class of
voters in Delaware and his party S
candidate was defeated when the
cards were stacked the other way.
The Republican chieftains are pray
ing fervently for the revival of bust
ness and renewed evidences of restora-
tion of public confidence in the Ad-
ministration. There is a reliable re-
port current in town that the Demo-
Gratis chances of obtaining the sinews
of political wars-campaign funds
have increased of late. 1t is probably
the direct outgrowth of "big men,
among the Democratic workers assid-
uously cultivating the money bags
hitherto exclusively at the disposal of
the Republicans. Recognition is given
to the fact that the Presidential cam
paign will be far more expensive than
in other years. 1t is expected that high
err taxes on industry, which seem in
evitable, at the next session of Con-
gress will drive many contributors to
political funds into the camp of the
minority party.
The guest list at the Hoover sum-
mer camp ON the Rapidan in Virginia
will be studied and interpreted more
closely this year. The president is
more at ease in this rural retreat and
will undoubtedly listen attentively to
helpful suggestions advanced by his
visitors. At the White House visitors
have always been conscious of their
surroundings and naturally more re-
strained in their condolences, no mat
ter what their station in life. These
barriers are broken down around a

WaIberg Hits
Stride Against
". Y. Yankees

RUDE Walberg, Pine county's repre-
sentative in big league baseball,
seems destined to another good sea-
son in 1881. Last weeks st. Paul
Pioneer Press carried the story of
Philadelphia to victory over
New York with the RUDE doing the
splendid pitching for the Athletics.
According to the press the crowd of
S0,4O3 persons who saw the game,
was the second largest crowd in base
ball history, the all time record being
set September 9, 1928 when S5,265
spectators saw the Yanks and Athle-
tics in a double-header.
Walberg did a great bit of work
last Sunday, striking out of the
Yankees and allowing six scattered
hits and two runs, while his team
mates gathered three, even though
faced by those two terrific sluggers,
Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Rube
hasn't yet lost a game this season and
was chosen by the Athletic manager
to pitch the opening game played be-
fore President Hoover.
Sundays game must have been a
fast one for it took but one hour and
forty-five minutes to play it, and Wal
berg, besides the six strike-OutS to his
credit also made three assists, a
goodly number for pitcher to get.

Washington Letter
By v PDaley

Washington, April 22-Wage cuts
and higher taxes are among the early
symptoms of political nightmares re-
ported throughout the country. The
emphasis placed on these two items
fosters the belief among observers that
these subjects may overshadow the
prohibition question as leading issues
in the Presidential campaign of 1882.
Well-informed visitors here are en-
deavoring to steer the Washington
high-cOmmand of both parties into a
better appreciation of actual condi-
tiOns. 1t is always a problem to regi-
ster good advice with party workers
in high posts, especially when it en-
anates from humble workers in the
political vineyard. A resentful voting
public bent on expressing reprisals in
the ballot box is something to bother
the real thoughtful leaders.
There has been relatively little men,
ton of other "sore spots" in party
affairs. Powerful agitators have been
carrying on studied campaign under
cover to stress the race issue among
negro voters. 1t is delicate subject
packed with dynamite and obviously
is provoking uneasiness in the Re-
publican ranks, in particular. The
colored voters have grown in num-
bers and in political strength in ILL
nois, Indiana, New York and Michigan.
The exploiters in their own ranks
play on their race emotions with
marked success. The recent errors
of omission or commission on the part
of Administration leaders in dealing
with their people are, featured and
distorted to arouse resentment. An
organized detection of these colored
citizens who have voted the Republi-
can ticket as traditional matter
would change political states in some
