Now that Natalie Prichett's

Hampton Ellis (the owner of

1t was not so long ago that
this dynamic lady missed them
about two weeks ago. Mrs.
Ellis is beginning to realize
that she is not the only one
who loses things. At Rippon
Lodge several weeks ago at
one of the Ellis famed garden
parties, three gentlemen's hats
remained unclaimed after all
the guests had departed. How
ever, all but one has found its
owner-only a forlorn brown
felt remains!

GERMANY ON SPOT
IN FAR EAST FIGHT
United With Japan Against Reds,
but Trade Interests Are
Threatened,
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, October 7.-Although of
ficial quarters maintained cautious
attitude toward developments in the
Sino-Japanese war today, officials
pointed out privately that the conflict
has placed Germany in a rather
dificult" position.
They declared that while Germany
was united with Japan in an anti
Communist front, there was no desire
to make this synonymous with an anti
Chinese front.
Influencing Reichsfuehrer Hitler's
policy In the Far East is the fact
that Germany's trade with China is
one Of the most important items in
constant struggle to widen the market
for German products. German COM
merctal interests in China are endan-
gered equally with those of Great
Britain and the United States.
