A shadow crossed Mrs. Prawling's
face. But she let it dissolve in a firm
and valorous smile.
Couldn't I bring Peter over to see
you?" she quietly implored. And she
wondered as her frank and trusting
gaze rested on the judges tired face

meditation so prolonged.

Mrs. Prawling emitted a slight sigh
Of disappointment at the remoteness Of
the date.
"Good-by," she murmured. "And
thank you again for being so kind and
understanding"
"Good-by," responded Judge Tins
dale as he watched her flutter down
the wide white steps to where her
chauffeur, with a rug wei his arm,
awaited her.
Judge Tinsdale read the four COM
plants for the second time. His face
grew slightly more granite as he con-
sidered the list Of offenses therein re-
counted. Nor did his frown tighten as
he touched a bell button and asked that
OReilly be sent to him.

arched window where the elms threw a

OF the courthouse when his probation
officer entered the room and stood re-

man at the desk came out of his reverie.

HOW HATS HAVE
U
FIGURE IN PAST

What with the Black Shirts Of
Italy, the Brown Shirts Of Germany,
the Red Shirts in Soviet Russia, the
present generation might sing Its "
"Song Of the Shirt" though 1t would
be quite different from that Of
Thomas Hood. And yet-would 1t be
any cheerier than Hoods?
Whatever the sigi.fcance Of shirts
In this era, other items Of dress
have played their larger parts In
years gone by. History suggests that
people dress not SO much for protec-
ton as for display, and sometimes
to denote differences In social rank.
Hats have played their large part,
for instance. Everyone is familiar
with the three-:ornered hat which
Napoleon made famous. It became Al
significant for his time as did the tri-
colored cockade Of tire French revo-
lutionists. Was the three-cornered
hat Of Napoleon designed to continue
the tradition of the cockade. or was
it just a fashion Of the time? At any
rate, the Napoleonic hat continues to
hold favor. l.
How much the Urban denotes,
worn by certain orientals! This
headpiece signifies much more than
a sash or shawl twisted about a cap.
It divides the Orient from the Ccci-
dent. 1t suggests rank and caste; it
seems much better fitted to a life Of
quiet and meditation than it would
be to western hustle.
Even the soft felt hat, 30 popular
with men in this country. once had
international significance. It was
worn by the great Hungarian patri-
OF, Kossuth, upon his visit to this
country In 1849. So we'll did it seem
to typify his vigorous character that
1t Immediately became popular and
has long remained so.
Whether shirts will become as sig
niticant as hats in the human record,
is an open question. The variously
colored shirts of today reflect much
history In the making. Surely. 1t Is
well for a man to know what shirt
he wears and to keep it on If he can.

NIX on the country for all time.
This permanent" MIRA, as sketched
Dy johnson, would consist of q general

dictates, and a long string of govern
ment representatives sitting on code
authorities as umpires in disputes be-
tween employers and workers and be-
tween industry and the public. Broad
iy speaking. the NRA might retreat
and allow business greater freedom.
Unless President Roosevelt can
~ prevent 1t, about half a million
workers in the cotton textile industry
will be on strike on or about Septem-
Der L, because they are utterly dis
satisfied with their MIRA code. The
convention of the United Textile
Workers of America in New York vot-
ed mandatory instructions to the
unions executive council to call this
general strike, and If it goes into eff
feet it may later spread to other
branches of the industry, involving an
additional 100000. Leaders in the
strike movement are Norman Thomas,
former Socialist candidate for Presi-
dent, and the younger element in the
union.
The specific aim will be to obtain
a reopening of the textile code and
its revision along lines demanded by
the union. Demands will be made for

Tree Growth Affected

The bronze birch borer, often de-

Fort Peck Project

60, Both army engineers and reclama-
ton officials were startled at Presi-
dent Roosevelt's comment, in his
speech at Glasgow, that some $4,000
acres Of land would be irrigated by
water from the Fort Peck project. The
point Is that the project was not de.
signed OF planned as an irrigation
project at all. It was. designed for
two purposes. One was flood control.
The other was to provide a navigable
channel for boats and barge lines on
the Missouri river.
Obviously. engineers and reclama-
ton officials point out, water cannot
be used for both keeping q channel at
navigable depth throughout the length
Of this very long river and for irriga.
ton of. some 5000 acres Of land in
the vicinity Of the reservoir.
What they think happened is that
the President, aghast at the dust
storms over deserts where fertile farms
used to be, leaped to the conclusion
that water on the land was far more
important than a navigable stream,

All Of the other projects which the
