SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
A Days Sport.


It's fun to go a-tshing when the day is
bright and warm,
When the clouds float high and heecy
with no threatening Of storm,
When the waves we're softly plashine
'gainst the bottom of the boat
And the sunbeams in the water look
like diamonds afioat.
It's fun to fling the line into the water
and to see
The bubbles rising to make plain just
where your hook may be.
And YOU feel a placid patience as you
idly sit and wait
And wonder if some foolish fish Will
nibble at your bait.
It doesn't really matter if the fish refuse
to bite,
Provided only that the lazy day is warm
and bright;
In fact, mid your enjoyment Of the
zephyr and the shine
II seems an interruption to be pulling
in line.
And so it is a joyous and a profitable
day,
Fen though when homeward bound !
have no trophies to display
And everything is peaceable and friendly
as can be.
have no grudge against the fish and
they have none toward me.
Exhausting Experience.
whats the matter with our morose
friend?"
Political indigestion" replied Senator
Sorghum. The pork barrel and pie

A New Link With Canada.

Ever since the peace of Ghent, Bri-
tons and Americans have rejoiced in
the unbroken century and a quarter
of tranquility which has prevailed along
the unfortitied border between the
Dominion of Canada and the United
States-a model of neighborly living for
a world loath to abandon faith in guns
as a guarantee of good behavior along
common frontiers. In Washington this
week a 181-nlile link was forged in the
chain of Canadian American amity and
friendship. when the long-pending st.
Lawrence Waterway treaty was signed.
Thus is insured the eventual con-
struction of a great water highway
from the Atlantic to the uppermost
reaches of the Great Lakes. 1t makes
a lively appeal to the imagination to
conjure up the vision, planned to be-
come a reality within ten years, Of ocean
liners entering the American continent
at Montreal and taking their course
unimpeded to Chicago, Duluth and in
termediate points. Immense as the
Panama Canal project was, the ST
lawrence Great Lakes ditch" dwarfs
1t in magnitude, the S500,000,000 joint
cost of the Canadian American ship
way being just double the outlay on the
1sthmian enterprise. Its completion
will be a towering monument alike to
English-speaking craftsmanship and
engineering skill.
A subcommittee of the United States
Senate is about to institute a compre-
hensive survey of the treaty. as a pre-
liminary to its necessary ratification by
the Senate, as well as by the Canadian
Parliament. Objections are already
certain. On this side of the st. Law
renee New York State requires assur-
ance that its rights are fully safe
guarded, both with respect to its flnan-
Cial contribution to construction costs
and utilization of the almost limitless
hydroelectric energy to be developed
from impounded waters. 1t was regard
ing these questions that Gov. Roosevelt
vainly sought conference with the
President, but which Mr.. Hoover right
ly pointed out were issues that would
arise only after treaty with Canada
was signed.
The Ottawa government also faces
ratification tussle. Premier Taschereau
of Quebec threatens to take the whole
affair to the Dominion courts. Quebec's
mighty ocean port of Montreal natural
ly looks aSkance at a development
bound to rob it Of good deal of its
prestige as the Atlantic side gateway to
Canada and far western North America.
Railroads in both countries will no
doubt protest, too, for freight-carrying
from the heart of the continent to the
sea is obviously on the threshold OF
revolutionary developments.
In acclaiming 'the greatest internal
Improvement yet undertaken on the
North American Continent" President
Hoover recalls the many and extremely
complex engineering, legal, commercial
and international problems that have
been worked out by the representatives
of both countries in a spirit OF CO.
operation of which all North America
can be justly proud" The people of the
United States will follow the physical
naturalization of the st. Lawrence
Waterway during the years just ahead
in the same spirit of pride, conscious
that it typihes work of immeasurably
practical value for both ourselves and
our great neighbor to the north.

 Tn additione to the statuary there was a great array of real Oriental furniture, the most valu- able piece being a long ebony bench inlaid with mother-of pearl. Rugs and draperies which were used also represented a small for tune, and sterling silver was used for table services.

Simple Fabric Takes Lead in
Fashion Parade.

The little girl in the gingham
gown, celebrated in the sentiment
tai songs Of yore, has returned as
the leader Of the 1892 fashion
parade.
Bingham isn't just something to
wear to school any more. We've
seen it in blouses and street frocks,
In tennis dresses and pajamas ear
lier this season. And now comes
the bingham evening gown. Believe
It or not.
And it's making a great hit with
the younger set, where the new or
der of the day is simplicity.
A Bingham dance dress is Of q
checked imported Bingham, in wine
red and white. Its lines are simple
with a nodded empire silhouette,
unbelted, following the lines of the
figure. And its only ornament is a
crisp white organdie flower at the
bodice.
It has wide shoulder straps, ar
ranged in a suspender fashion in
back and it's about the smartest
thing that has come along.
1t illustrates the new trend of
the best-dressed set, which frowns
on ostentation and elaborate gowns,
at least for this summer and halls
with loud hurrahs the simple, old
fashioned fabrics that are riding
high in the mode.
