OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS THE BRITISH FAMILY "Daughter is she in her toother's home, but mistress in her own," has for many years adequately described the attitude oi the colonies of Great Britain to the mother country, and never before has it been more applicable than today. The modern daughter of today is much more assertive of her rights in the home than the daughter of yesterday. Still loving the old mother country, and still willing members of the family, the colonies of Great Britain are today much more strongly assert- ing themselves in the deliberations of the mother country than was ever thought possible a few years ago. The representative of Canada to the League of Nations council a short time ago made the mother country very uneasy by his attitude on European secret diplomacy. In his denuncia- tion of the evil of such secret diplomacy, as had been carried on in Europe for generations, and which finally ended in the con- flagration which swept the world, a demand was made to tne effect that if the members of the British family were to be called upon to help fight the wars of the mother country, they must have some say in the negotiations of the mother country with other countries. The meeting of the colonial premiers of the British empire, which is meeting in London, is, for this reason, one of the most important meetings ever held in the history of the empire. The colonies are meeting, not as colonies, but as self-governing states, sovereign in all matters pertaining to their own govern- ment, and equal in all matters with each other and the parent nation in the consideration of matters effecting the entire em- pire. Britain has learned her lesson and America may take the credit for having taught her that lesson. A repetition of the breakin away of a colony of Britain, as in the case of America, cannot happen in the future.' -x tf THE HIGH SCHOOL TANGLE From the present circumstances surrounding the selection of school site, and the bids received for the construction of the proposed new school, it does not look as if very much construc- tion will actually be done nthe building this fall. The failure to designate a site by the citizens and the failure of the school board to accept any of the bids offered for the construction of the building means that there will'be another delay in getting at the actual construction. We understand the school board has a certain amount of money at its disposal with which to build the school. We no- tice that alternate bids were considered in which certain changes and substitutions were made. We hope the school board will not substitute poorer materials for standard mate- rials. If the building has to be built in units, it is much better to build a*smaller unit at this time, which will accommodate the school attendance for two or three years, at which time an- other unit or two units could be built if needed and yet pre- serve the architectural effect of the whole building. We under- stand this is the way the State Teachers college is being built, and there is no question but what a beautiful structure can eventually be constructed. Under no circumstances should the materials or workmanship be skimped. Experience with sub- stitute materials was furnished with the old high school build- ing and no one could say that it was good policy. Extravagance is unwise, but good material and good work- manship should by all means be put into the building, even if the building must be smaller. We believe this is the policy of the school board and we trust a way will be found out of the present difficulty by the board, which will' solve the problem before them. Above all things, we should be very careful with our criticism of the school board's action. THE NAVY BOMBING TESTS IIIIIMHIINIVIJNritMtiUIUIMiiriikililih Lmmii.t... E. H. DENU, See. and Mgf. J. D.

But the exercises did not prove, a many air enthusiast* had hoped, that we may dispense with first-class fighting ships. As effective coast defenders, under ideal conditions, airplanes proved their worth, but, of course, ideal conditions are fre- quently wanting. For example* the exercises were postponed a day on account of fog. And there is yet a limit to the radius within which planes may effectively operate. However, the tests showed that a combination of adequate bombing planes and battleships is a necessity. As the Japanese naval attache, who witnessed the tests, well expressed it, the tests were inter- esting and impressive, but the battleship is still a force to beand.Hajee reckoned with and willjbe for many years to come.

We ha\e it with us tills* summer in many developments, fioift narrow girdles with floating enl that nre mere finishing touches of color, to gorgeous affairs made of brilliant brocaded ribbons, that dominate the costume. The dress becomes a back ground for these pretentious acces sories when they are made of such splendid stuff. On midsummer dresses of sheer materials sashes are often made of the same fabric as the dress, and oc casionally, narrow ribbon is used with these fabric sashes. Girdles of fabric finished with bows and long ends of narrow ribbon make a happy combina tion, but the handsomest and dressiest sashes leiualn, as they always have been, of ribbons. Three of them are illustrated here, found among the sim pler designs, for sashes have been much elaborated by combining ribbons of different colors in them and by rib bon flowers and ornaments.
