ing Field, regardless of whether they
were trained as attack, pursuit, bom-
bardment or observation officers. The
squadron Is not an active operating
organization and has no equipment

There would be an inevitable delay in
case Of emergency in putting the
squadron on an operating basis.
Under the suggested plan, local Re-
serve pilots with pursuit training
would be assigned to one of the
active pursuit squadrons, probably at
Selfridge Field, Mich. Attack pilots
would be assigned to an attack squad

bombardment pilots either to the l4th

DECORATIONS FOR
HATS FOR AUTUMN

Judging by the forecasts of au-
tumn millinery we are getting back
to the days when a hat which
wasn't trimmed wasn't considered
as worthy of attention.
Autumn hats have all sorts of
novel decoration, usually in shade
which contrasts so that there is no
chance of overlooking the elabora-
ton of detail. Bonnet-like shapes
that look suspiciously like those
great-grandmothers once wore are
trimmed with pompons and perky
ostrich tips. Tassels, silk cords and
even spangle arrangements in sew
eral different shades trim more
sophisticated models.
The alliance of different tones is
as significant as the trend toward
trimming. Novel fancies of ribbon
in two shades of green appear on
black felt models and those of very
dark red shades. A soft raspberry
tone is effective as a contrast for
grayish blue.

Char+ing Your Life

If you want to find new happi-
ness in life, you must decide what
things will bring you that happi-
ness. If you are in doubt Of your
true goal, you must trust your
intuitions. If you cannot find a
specific answer, go with your in
ner lodgings. Do the work you
most desire to do. 9B
Never worry about conse-
quences when you do this. Choose
the thing most important to you
and seek that first. This is the
dynamic rule of successful worry.
But if you have decided to fol-
low it there is still another point
to remember. Do not expect to
achieve perfect success. There is
an average ratio of error in all
conduct. Why should you escape
it or blame yourself because you
sometimes fail? Growth means
perpetual embodiment, struggle
up where we have fallen down.

Skirts shorter and fuller is the
exciting headline flashed from fash
ions realm for fall and winter. An
other significant style message is
that the new modes reflect strong
British trend influenced by the
forthcoming coronation of King
Edward VIII. All this as a pro-
logue to the story of the dress here
shown made of black spotprcof
transparent velvet with full circular
Victorian skirt and a basque blouse
trimmed in royal blue chiffon with
metal coin dots = inspired by fash
ions popular in the days Of Queen
Victoria. We learn furthermore
from the series of fashion revues
presented recently by the Style
Creators of Chicago in the whole
sale outlet that the coronation
theme reflects in street outfits as
well as in the richly colorful and
jeweled evening costumes, also that
the red being used is strictly Brit
ish wine color and that typical
British tunic and cap influence is
evidenced in new stylings.

lame. The elegance of the material
of which the blouse is made carries
an important message in regard to
the new fabric collections which
foretell the use of most opulent and
grandiose weaves for fall and win
ter fashions. Per example the lat
est move is to wear a waistcoat
of costly brocade with the new suit
as happy diversion from the reg
ulation blouse. AS to evening vel
vets and satins and such they are
superbly beautiful and classy"
A tuscan wine costume of hubby
wool is centered in the group. Here
we have a jacket with fitted back
and spectacular lynx tuxedo front
that dramatizes the picture. The
very new and popular fur REFER
fronts such as stylize both jackets
and long coats are quite similar to
the tuxedo treatment. The dress
with the tuxedo" jacket is of
matching material. 1t interprets a
new neckline and has a double
pearl ornament fastening down the
front. Speaking of leading colors
the wine shades repeat their tri-
umph with dark rich green's (spruce
green's the new theme) contesting
for first honor. ............
The costume to the right is Of
spruce green wool trimmed in
mink-dyed kolinsky. Here we have
the more-than-ever popular tunic
lines. The tunic suit is a leader
among leaders this season. The
deep fur bordering is typical of the
smartest fur treatments for fall.
The matching muff and self-fur col
lar add a final touch of chic.

handsomely appareled throughout
the coming round of campus and
social activities. In fact the YER
dict handed down from the supreme
court of high fashion declares a suit
dramatized with lavish fur embel-
lishment becomes an absolute
must have" this season for every
woman and most especially for the
college girl who would do the cor
rect thing in matter of practical
stylish daytime dress.
Since fur-laden costume suits are
so outstanding on the current style
program we are picturing a trio of
last minute models that simply
radiate with style-significant de-
tails. These stunning ensembles
were recently shown at a fashion
revue presented by the style Gre
ators of Chicago in the wholesale
district-a brilliant affair that in
trigued a vast and appreciative
audience to a point of high en-
thusiasm.
In these striking fashions three
distinct trends are indicated-pep-
lum. tuxedo with REFER sugges-
tom and tunic. Generally speak
ing, the costume suit program for
autumn and winter Classics into
these silhouette influences.

lum effect that distinguishes the

NOTICE TO A NOMINEE
| LOT of folks today believe tn

A LOT of folks today believe that
"A when political parties are con-
vening, the favored candidates,
wherever they may be, have one
ear to a keyhole, a wetted finger
uplifted to test direction of the po-
litical winds, and have set their ra-
dio dials the proper wave length
to listen in on convention hall.
Maybe they're right.
But it wasn't always like that.
We had ten Presidents before the
man who was destined to become
the eleventh, James K. Polk Of
Tennessee, was informed of his
candidacy by telegraph.
The dots and dashes that spelled
out Folks surprising overthrow Of
Martin Van Buren, in the Demo
cratic convention of 1874 were inn
pulses over newly-built line of
telegraph between Baltimore,
scene of the convention, and Wash
ington. Polk, who was waiting in
Washington, was the first man who
received the news in what is to-
day a commonplace fashion.
Van Buren,, seeking to succeed
himself, was easily the favorite.
But he had steadily lost ground at
the Baltimore meeting after being
placed "on the spot" by the ques-
ton of the annexation of Texas.
Southern delegates began to forsake
his candidacy in large numbers.
His managers attempted to change
the party's new two-thirds rule to
a majority ukase, but were unsuc-
cessful.
A steady drift to Polk began on
the ninth ballot of the convention.
Strangely enough, a letter from
jackson, Van Buren's mentor,
which pleaded for harmony, helped
complete the rout in Folks favor.
The telegraph wire served for
one more purpose on this momen-
tous occasion. Sen. Silas Wright
was in Washington and had been
rendered second place on the tick
ct with Polk. He was angry over
the shelving of Van Buren,, so the
dots and dashes which came back
over the wire carried his indignant
refusal of this chance to become
the vice-president of the United
States.

KICKING TEDDY UPHILL

TT IS certain that Theodore Roose-
welt would never have be-
come President in the manner he
did if it hadn't been for Sen. Thorn
as Plat, then the political boss OF
New York state. In order to in
sure the presence of Republican
at Albany, but with inner misgiv-
ings which were soon to be
realized, he prevailed on the popu-
lar Rough Rider to become the
gubernatorial candidate, shortly
after the Spanish war.
Roosevelt was elected and
showed Immediately that he could
not be controlled by Plat or any
boss. Platt's embarrassment was
only that of a politician. But the
discomfort of his friends, thorough
1y disturbed by Teddy's big stick
gestures, became problem.
The solution, finally arrived at
by a devious route, appeared be-
fore the primaries of 1900. The
Republican party in New York was
to name a candidate for governor
perhaps Roosevelt again-in Sep
TENDER. But the Republican party
in the United States had to name
a running mate for President Nc
Kinley, and the latter convention
would be held in June!
Plat decided that Teddy would be
the vice-presidential candidate. He
would kick Roosevelt uphill, and
out of New York state.
Roosevelt himself realized the
move had been launched to shelve
him, for so he regarded the vice
presidency. Moreover, neither
Mark Hanna of Ohio, president
maker in a big way in those days,
nor Mckinley wanted Roosevelt on
the national ticket.
But Platt persisted. He was aid
ed by Roosevelt's growing popu-
larity, particularly in the West.
These Westerners carried their
Roosevelt enthusiasm to the con-
vention with them. The boom
reached proportions that Hanna
could not ignore and in confer
ence with Plat the night before the
nominations the president-maker
capitulated.
Hanna issued a statement advo-
eating Roosevelt for the vice-presi-
dency and told the newspapermen:
"Boys, you can't stop it any more
than you could stop Niagara"
Soon to become President at the
unfortunate death of Mckinley,
Roosevelt won the election. And
when the gleeful Senator Platt was
asked if he would attend the in
auguration he replied: eyes, / am
going down to see Theodore Roose-
welt take the veil"

Tunics Are Now Designed
for All Types of Women

The vogue of tunics has reached
the state where there are tunics
designed for fat women, tunics for
thin women, tunics for young and
tunics for old. Woe unto the fol-
lower of fashion who happens to
choose the wrong one.
Those fiaring, knee length tunics
which start from slender waistlines
and shoot out in all directions are
intended for the young and will
Lowry creatures. The more they
fare and the puffier the sleeves of
the accompanying blouse the
younger they are. Stylish stouts
are permitted to adopt the tunic
theme providing they select the
straight line version.

Gray Uniforms

Research among the archives OF
Fort Monroe, Va, reveals that the
high-powered rifle was responsible
for the change in color of uniforms
of the United States Army from
blue to olive drab. Blue, it was
discovered, is visible at a longer
distance than any other color, and
makes an easy target for sharp
shooters. Until after the Spanish
American war there were no guns
accurate or high-powered enough to
make any difference.

him to tell me the time, he flipped

must say she was pretty. She's a
coed who went to the same col

your picture in his heart, unde-

Many new gadgets are on the
market for making food service
attractive.
Gadgets for molding pats Of
butter into attractive shapes are
poisoning in abundance. One Of
these is a metal butter curler with
a wooden handle that pulls the
butter into the shape of shells.
Since it is heated before use. the
butter can be nodded just as it
comes from the refrigerator.
Many other types of wooden
moldS are available. Wooden
butter prints stamp pats Of butter
in variety of ways.
The efficient-looking, slotted
wooden spoons are a wise addition
to the kitchen. These are useful
not also in stirring and mixing,
but also in Straining. A new
wooden spoon comes in a diagonal
shape, designed so that every bit
of food can be Scraped from the
bottom of the bowl.
