The word from Italy. which is

ION capital. according to many,
is that womens skirts are going
to get shorter.
We are not much authority on
fashions. and We certainly know
nothing about the skirts going up
or down. but the report is that,
in Rome. the latest fashion shows
feature skirts which are almost
knee high.
This takes US back to World
War II. and then back into the
twenties. and that's about as far
back as We can 60. We recall
! that the short skirts did not
bother US much then and We
imagine We can weather the
storm again. if it comes to that.
Our thoughts on this matter
turns to the fashions for men.
Why not have trouSer lengths 60
up or down: Ii the clothing
trade could sell the men on the
idea Of changing the length OF
their trousers. the$ could sell
the poor male suckers as many
new styles Of suits as they ped.
die off on the women. merely by
changing the style every year or
two.
But. fortunately. men are not
quite so sullible. and they will
probably 60 on wearing their
trousers either TOO long Or too
short. as most of them do. And
in the end. it makes very little
difference. Men 60 about their
business and get things done in
either short or long trousers. and
the world turns the same as
before.
So We suspect. the world will
60 on turning il skirts get short.
er. and maybe few more heads
will turn also. and that may be
good for all those males who are
feeling rather respondent or
weak in the you know where.
Now We see the fields of har.
vested grain. and wonder when
our summer came.
l, seems only last week that
We were looking over the fields
Of green. growing wheat as We
rode along the highways. and
now We look at these same fields.
yellow with ripe grain or harvest.
ed stubble. l; hardly seems pos.
sible. but fall is just about here.
Harvest season. getting ready
for school. and the hurry of
tourists to get back home on or
shortly after Labor day is a
sure sign.
Seasons are like money We
wonder where il went. Nothing
new or strange about the though,
tho. or money for that matter.

ing my parents complain abou,
the same thing,
This is another Browning
While il, safe bet il can't com,
pare with the Browning We know
there is another one in Illinois
We found that out last Sa,ur,

Wonder If all this squabble
about curtailed mail service and
shortage Of funds has anything
10 do with taking a le,,e. five

Things seem 10 be warming ur
in good shape for the North
American Indian Days. County
Youth Fair and Rodeo that opens
Friday. As this is being written
on Tuesday afternoon. after JUS,
downing a cup Of coffee and
taking . swing around by the
camp grounds. we counted seven
teepees already up and several
families had just pulled in with
lodges that will be up before
the sun goes TO rest.
The boys in charge Of the
celebration this year tell US tina,
It's going 10 be . real bang.ur
affair bigger and better
than ever. and this We can be
lieve. knowing that they have
been doing . lot Of advertising
and . lot u travelling around the
country.
Chief Last Star recently re-
turned from the Sheridan ceie
bration and expressed his DISCUS,
with the way the thing was
handled this year in that liquor
flowed al too freely on the camp
ground. which Of course caused
. lot 0f trouble and disgusting
Whoop.ups. They have taken
the nsturalness out Of the even,
by going into too much com
