BOB PJtESSEY ON THE BANKER GOOD MONEY AFTER BAD One point at which President liar- ding may save over $700,001) can be pointed out to him without hesita tion. It is in connection with the United States tariff commission. According to Washington dis patches it asks for a million dollars and is likely to get $700,000 That it should get anything is little short of a scandal, for the labors of the commission, whatever they have been, have produced no public bene fit whatever There may lie argument for some commission of this kind ITesidetii Taft thought so, for he created the old Tariff hoard though he had only a slender warrant of law President V\ Ilson thought so, for he recoin mended the present commission to congress and got II provided for,not withstanding his parly had taken ground against any such organiza tion. President Harding evidently thinks so, for he has nominally vest ed it with additional powers. But if such a commission is to be of actual servte* there must be more than abstract thought about its functions Work must lie il and what ’ Has 1 No. •ation led ill No1 Among the many “Oooatry News paper Helps” bow ou the market is a Mae ot stu f called ’ Bob Pressey’z Jingles,’’ and 1 b tb s we often fed somtthiBg good.

PROPER APPRECIATION - The country editor has played a vital role in the development of his country. Too long has he been the object of thoughtless jibes and very thin hfiihof. Of all the boasted free institutions of America the last we could spare would be the free press; and the country editor is the free press. Remove him and ignorance, doubt, suspicion and discontent will soon breed anarchy. There’are thou sands of him all over this land, tak ing positive stand on publie Issues, upholding law and order, fighting for publie decency and righteousness and disseminating the world's news as well a; printing the family item, interpreting public opinion and crit icising men and events. He is apt to be partisan, but that is because he is human. He may occasionally es- poue a fuestlonable Issue, but not for long; he may ride the wrong horse, but seldom a dead one; he may make mistakes, but he can be found at his desk next day ready to answer for them. We believe that he who asked to wylte the songs of -a nation might have said with better effect: ‘ Let me edit the country press of a nation and I care not who makes the laws.” —Denver Times, IOWA BEARD IN FRANCE A Paris dispatch dated December 4 «dates th a t 3 L L a s tfcr, am ateur wireSess operator lirfcg «a «he s»V wrhs c tf CefcHfib«, !h W 'd ^ B f i S e i r : ef th e Seise, «ring a ta x HEN the tvwlii was new wad outig, there were Indians who rtiumed the plains, even us we do now. These were large iudiums—meu of gi gantic stature tutd great strength. And they were created by Ti-ru-wa, who created all the world, and all the an imals, and nil the people. With these great Indians lived the animals even as we have them today. The giants ruled the world, for they were very si rung; and ‘they were so .swift that ibey hunted the buffalo .bn foot; ami they would ruu down u buf falo and kill it with a stone, or a club or a knife. Then even though it was a great buffalo bull, they would sv.irg it to their shoulders and carry it into camp, iso you can see that they were very strong, and that they laid great power on earth. For they were feared by all the animals. For many years they dwelt on the plains. But as lime Went on they censed In honor Ti-ru-wa, wtio had cre eled them; and they ceased to believe in Ltin ami in Ibe tilings lie did. They thought they were very strong, and llmt they vveibi more powerful limn Ti-ru-wa himself, and they would no longer pray to him. When the rains would eome they would shake their lists ul the sky and curse, mul call out had words. And If it was loo warm or too cold, (lieu (hey would laugh at Ti-ru wa, and scoff at Ills strength, and fell each oth er stories of lmw they would run the world if they wme in power All tills lime Ti-ru wa tried to keep I hem hap py nml did favors for them, and con tinned them in Ihelr strength, ami did nil lie could In make the world a hap- py nne lor Ihciu to live in. But limill.v T’i-ra-vva became angry, ami lie im lunger would smile at I he n‘in,! people on earili lie sent tlie black clouds and I lie storms and (he luliluiiig mid the thunder down upon Ihc giants who had scoffed him And the water lose and rose, and these giant (H'ojflS fled before it. But ruu ns they might I hey were unable to es cape, ami by and by Ihc water arose „or Hie level of the laud, and these great people, even to the last man and the last woman, sank down Into the soil ground and the mud and were downed. When all tin“ giants hud been de stroyed and had disappeared, then Tl ru wa recalled 1ie l rain and the (him- dir, .and the lightning and the storm And he made the sunshine to shine again and the grass to grow and the frees In lihnmi and grow green. And llie world was restored to the animals as it was before, hut the giants, who hurt scoffed ’i'l ra wa, were gone for ever. So Ti-ru-vs made a man and a woman. And he made them small of stature; and they did not have the streugih of (lie giants. But they were good and they honored Ti-ru-wa. And sti that they might live, lie gave to lhem the corn, and taught them to oiil- livale it and to dry It and to make meal, and to make it their food. This they did, arid so Tl-ru-vra sent to them children; and the children grew up and a tribe was formed, and that tribe was the rawnees. And today they are still the Pawnees, and the Pawnees have become a great people, fur ever they have honored Tl ra-vva who made them and who gave them the corn, and the meat, which Is their food. ■ Today you may go on the prairie and find the great bones of the giants who were drowned; and you can find them In the deep canons, and deep In the ground—and that is the proof that ihev really did sink .into the ground as is tfdd ns by our* fathers. ________ ■% Note—This legend is distinctly Paw nee, and is common among the ma jority of the Pawnee family tribes. Ti- ra wa is the god of the Pawnees, sim ilar to the Manitou of the Utes.-the Great Spirit of the Iro^iis ,and the Napi (Old Man) of the Blaekfeet. The flood Incident, told here, is told In a Unde different manner by the Utes, the Comanehes, the Arapaboes, the Chey ennes and# the Xavajos—in fact, by practically .all of the western Indians.

Velvet ts excellent for blouses as to* tmts and gowns, and metal fabrics promise to lie extremely fashionable. (Tepes have lost fume of their good style. The printed crepes nre going rather big, and new patterns on th* Persian order make striking blouses. Embroidery, fur. soutache, luce, beads, metal otnamenis, tinsel and ribbon share the honors of trimming. Among Hie skirts, there is a notice able tendency toward dressiness. Side- draped skirts with uneven hern are made In velvet crepe A few char- rneuse models are to he distinguished among the throng. The wraparound style Is especially adapted to velvet, in addition to draped and wrap-around models, a good deal of the circular cut is to be seen, occasionally effected by inset goders.

Bert 1 feer fhstt I ans Tall and Short and Thin and Stout Women Should Choose Hats ,. to Suit Build. It cannot be denied that a «'Oman’s hat will make or mar her appearance. A tall, full faced woman almost invari ably finds that a hat with a broad brljn or one w hich Is w ide at the sides will add to the charm of her fape arid give proportion to her figure. If ghe should decide on a small hat she should select one which is firm and definite in shape arid, if possible, hav ing definite contour of angles.4 Women who are disposed to he both short and stout should adopt a small, rather severe type of hat. For the thin face a soft round hat with a small curled-up brim made of flexible materia! such as velours or ribboin will prove becoming and effec tive. TIi* hat should not be too big or drawn down on the head, as this gives a ftattened-down and dwarfed effect to the whole figure, Black and white millinery stilts women who have good complexions.
