1 JUST WHAT THE PEOPLE VOTED
FOR. I
lj When the American people eMo-j
lied the present national adminis
tration they got exactly what they (
} decided they wanted, Samuel Go.m-j
j pers toirl a large crowd at a Labor
r Day celebration at Raltimore. j
"Before that election,” ho said,’
"I issued a statement in which Ij
stated that were involved, so far as
I labor was concerned, and 1 said that |
I that the people would get
they voted for. They made their
choice between the candidates and
| parties and they have got what
they decided upon.
| “A year * ago today there was
’j scarcely a handful of men in this
(country out of employment. Now
j there are more than five million out
‘(of work. Who will you blame?
I I Will you blame the shadowy indc-
L \ finite thing of which you know
j ( nothing, or will you held responsi

KEPT BUBBLE FROM BURSTING
Too little credit has been given
banks for helping this country re
adjust. They have been cussed for
curtailing credit but the fact rc
mains that in coming down from the
dizzy heights of peak prices, few
failures of consequence have been
recorded in this country and the
hanking system stood the process
without a tremble.
Considering the change from a
war to a peace basis with its dras
tic turnover in character and meth
ods of production, the safe return
to a near normal basis has been re
markeahle and should put to shamo
the calamity howlers.
Back of It all stands a banking
I system which was able to stem the
tide of inflation and let the wind
.out of the bubble without bursting
if
Indoor Splendors of Dress
PERHAPS the main reason why r
negligees stimulate the fancy of 1
designers into unusual flights Is that l
these artistic souls may select any i
«tyle of drapery from any period of <
history In any quarter of the world !
and use It as they see fit, for these
Intimate garments. The lovely drap- (
ery of the Greeks with a charm that |
outlasts the passing of centuries, en- |
Poes 'them more than anything else. -
hence the prevailing long lines and t
graceful arrangements of drapery ,
Dint characterize the Indoor apparel of ]
women of leisure.
Lovely drapery and beautiful color ,
contribute tlielr part to the success of |
the simple model in negligees which
Is pictured here. Thu designer has .
ninde It beautiful without forgetting
to he practical and has Introduced a
novel decorntion that mokes a har
monious finish. Orchid pink crepe de
chine is the fabric used for it with
loops of satin ribbon forming tabs
that outline the classic draperies.
FINANCE THE FARMER.
| That is the subtle cry of ths
state socialist —the entering wedge
| of communism —the llussianization
of our country.
Making the farmer discontented
—telling him the state and the fed
eral government must finance you—
is the basis of the Non-Partisan
League.
-To make it easy for the farmer
io mortgage his land and home—
finally fo the state or nation to own
the program.
Very high taxes —every farm ir
ountry home plastered with an ob
igation drawing interest Is back of
finance the farmer.”
Sturdy American independence
’oes not ask state financing. The
sturdy independent, self-supporting
•itizen 13 the state. The rest is
Socialism.
LADIES’ AID
The September Ladies' Aid was
entertained by Mrs. Wortman and
Mrs. Morlaan at the home of the
latter.
The business meeting being a
short one. the ladies spent a very
enjoyable social hour, after which
the hostesses served refreshments.
This very up-to-date decorative feat
ure seems quite at home In the com
pany of Grecian lines. Brides will
appreciate the beauty coupled with
durability in this item of tlielr trous
seau and Its becomingness.
Crepe de chine Is among the most
durable of fabrics, but It has a rival
In another lovely tissue and that is
fine voile. This material is exquisitely
woven and colored, and adapts Itself
to graceful draperies after the manner
of crepe. Both are washable. Voile
invites the company of lace and rib
bons for Its decoration and will give
a good account of itself in negligees,
breakfast coats or boudoir Juckets, or
wherever else daintiness, gay color
and durability make a combination to
be desired.
