e L SN PAGE TWO THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 10, 1919 TURBANS FOR FALL| - Smaller Headgear Welcome Re- lief From Summer Styles. Large Hat Still Holds Favor for Drees Occasions; Many Picture Mod- els Shown. For fall wear, following the summer season of big more or less floppy pie- ture hats, the chic little turban or toque is a welcome addition to the -~ wardrobe. The draped turban is an es- pecially popular bit of headgear and it 4s a hat quite within the province of the home milliner. The fact that-hand embroidery i8 much in evidence on fabrics used for hats and for hat trim- ming makes it possible for a woman to express great individuality in the de- velopment of her headgear. The day of the large hat has by no means passed, and for later dressy ‘wear many picture models gre shown, ‘with handsome ostrich plumes of great length and richness the favored trim- ming. Soft crowns predominate on the big hats, although some of the more tatlored models show stiff crowns. A novelty shown by some of the leading milliners is a severe sailor Turban of Beaver and Extremely Close-Fitting—For Walking or Mo- toring It Is Ideal. that is really a feminine adaptation of the silk *“topper” worn by men. In the development of the soft crowns, brocaded fabrics and materials richly embroidered are often used to accompany brims of plain color msa- terial. STYLES FAVOR THIN GIRLS Bouffant Draperies and Accentuated Hips Are Not Designed for Stout Persons. Maybe you think that the girl under one hundred or close thereto does not have the difficulties in dressing becom- ingly as does her sister who weighs an- other hundred pounds, says a writer in the Philadelphia Record. In some ways she I8 worse off, for correct corseting and very careful tailoring will do much for the stout woman, while, unless the mode sponsors it, frills and the other first aids of the thin girl are apt to look passe. At present she should be in her ele- ment. She can build up so delightfully without recourse to ruffles, flounces or frills at all. Think what pounds the new stiff panniers of taffeta can add to the thin girl's appearance. There is a &reat deal to be done with skillful drapery, too. Large billowy folds of heavy satins will make up many de- ficlencles in the shm figure, N Probably the best news Is that if she has po hips she may simulate them in several ways. A very new Paris frock suggests one, for it rolls 4 plece of soft but heavy brocade turban fashion right below the normal waistline and then adds a tulle overskirt to soften the ef- fect. Another frock that does much the same thing shows a skirt of heavy sat- in draped into a 2-inch frill at the walistline, held there by folded girdle. The frill was allowed to fall over the girdle, and again a tulle overskirt fall- Ing over the frill softened and added even more bulk to the frock. The ruffled chemisettes in vogue again play into the thin girl's hands, and if her ankles are overly thin the heavy wool stockings to be worn with the sport oxfords all winter are an- other feature in her favor. Even the coats with their large armholes, which camouflage narrow, thin shoulders, show that the mode, while not perhaps having the very thin girl in mind, is at least kind to her this season. Black With Relief. It is a long time since black has been 80 much the mode. Coatlike frocks of black velours are very smart. This soft, dull black fabric frequently is relieved by a bright colored fastening of some sort. Fastenings are in favor this year, and give a good oppertunity for introducing a note of brightness. Committee Quizzes Radicals of Pes’ Uni EW YORK.—The School Teachers’ union is the latest organization to re- celve the attention of the attorney general in connectlon with the Lnsk‘ legislative investigation into bolshevism, begun more than four montbs ago Deputy Attorney General Berger and Archibald E. Stevenson, counsel for the Lusk committee, have for a month held hearings under the peace and safety act of 1917, passed to enable the state to deal with pro-Germans. These hearings had as an object uncovering the extent to which bol- shevism has spread in unions which were designated as “radical” at open hearings of the Lusk committee. While the teachers’ union was not so desig- nated, it became known that one of its officers was among those examined. The examination is said to have dis- closed that the union contains many teachers of socialistic tendencles, and an attempt is being made to learn to what extent the members are trying to carry bolshevist teachings Into their classrooms. The subpoenas calling the officers of each labor organization have required the production of all records relating to the membership and the personnel of the officers. The examinations aroused protest in socialist circles, whose leaders assert they are contrary to the spirit of the law. “This is a fine style of inquisition,” said 8. John Block, attorney for the Rand School of Social Science, “and is without the slightest justification. We believe the law under which the inquiry is held is unconstitutional, but rather than take the trouble of going to court, we have told the union leaders to appear and give such harmless information as is asked. As a matter of fact, | there is nothing those who have been summoned have any desire to conceal from the public.” PRESS :GENT'B CRUELTY. DR. E. A. SHANNON, M. D.

Leadership Through Service fi generation ago leadership in any industry was inter- preted to mean the ruth- less use of power. Today it is recognized that leadership in industry is attained and maintained only when, through efficiency, an organization . is able to render superior service. A generation ago competition meant getting the business without regard for its effect on the industry. Today competition means friendly rivalry in supplying the world with superior products at 2 minimum cost, and getting the business through superior service. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) enjoys a leading position in the tfigroleum industry, and is maintainin is leader- ship because it recognizes tiat this posi- tion can be measured only in terms of usefulness and service. It is the ambition of those responsible for theactivities of the Company to strengthen this leadership. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) believes that an organization can live and prosper only when it puts ideals of service above ideals of profit, which is exactly what the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is doing. The profits earned are but a measure of the service rendered. Thus does the Board of Directors of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) inter- pretits obligation to the public and to the 4649 stockholders, not one of whom owns as much as 10 per cent of the total stock. e Standard 9“1_1.)
