Hetringbones, geometrical pat- terns and “twists” should be fa- vorites in suit designs—not for getting the solid colors and pi tels, which will always hold their} popularity. Style Not Overlooked While color will take the spot- i light, style, of course, hasn’t been | overlooked. Three-button models, with a slight body tracing effect, will prove popular. Trousers should show little variation in width this depending to a great de- ave on the taste of the purclmser. soats should be a trifle longer than previously and double breast- ed coats should continue to enjoy | popularity. | Among the patterns herring-} bones are expected to prove popu- lar, especidily in the wider, ef- fects. Glen Urquaharts and plaids will be in considerable demand— | not forgetting the solid colors which will continue to meet with favor. “Twists” are going to enjoy con- siderable headway, as are worsteds and cheviots. © Notch lapels (square and rounded notches) will be almost unanimous favorites, although the peaked lapel still remains in the picture. Topcoat Styles In topcoats the reguiar button- through mode! with cither box or guards back will prove popular, but there are indications that the fly front will also be taken up by the younger d s. Coats should be a little longer, with m mod: straight and tubular, although there are many model the man who likes a slightly fuller coat. Tweeds, herringbones, and homespuns will hold the cente of the stage, with colors offere Drivers Pay Billion For Highway Use sf ists who according to a study made by as H. MacDon. chief of the bureau of public roads, department of agri culture. This cost presents the money spent each y just for country roads and does not include the ex pense of city streets. “More interesting than the road development itself,” said MacDonald, “are the various means employed to distribute h y costs among mo- torists in a just and convenient man- ner. “State gasoline and registration taxes represent about half of this amount. The gasoline tax varies from one to five cents in the various states, while New Jersey, New York, Minois and Massachusetts have no gas tax. These states depend upon the great number of automobile reg- istrations to furnish revenue for road construction. “Other important sources of reve- nue for highways are property taxes on automobiles of this country, fed- eral excise tax on automobiles, parts and accessories and fines collected from motorists. “There are also the taxes on prop- erty of the automobile manufacturer and buildings and lots devoted to motor car merchandising. The in- come and corporation taxes from motor business and the state, local, production, corporation or income taxes of the petroleum industry ‘add to-the road fund.” Federal aid also assists in road building, but its share is compara- tively small, according to MacDonald, who says, “In the eight years from 1918 to 1925 the government has con- tributed $460,000,000 to help the re] overplaids | ¢j a wide range of|¢ jan additio i THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. | re AT S> Ie 4 Liao bnmneumatan being scientious ly, more uld re though the: tual wort of subtle is indicated by ce sonal trait rati iors by their t of these “ratings agree with s in showing a di y to | in favor in the sa gligible, just is oper: nfluence high telligence ence in 4 the boys; a ¢ direction. but initiative: diff the girls in and applies terest in ho dependability’ Lobservan punctuality, and faithfulness) ity for college work.” pfessors Patterson out that Imost — invs point show the contra is wind up th higher gra hat girl r with the Accessories of, various touch of drobe th feminine before have su ful and exotic found. costume. found in lovely harmonize with are made attr: of soft kid, em! heavy fabric. plique are espe delicate shades dress colors. lered jgns ully pretty. of colored rhine faced with cont work is very good. one. glove. states build roads. “That is considerably less than! half of what the country spent on} roads in either 1924 or 1925.

Carr is the nomad of the house of representa- tives in so far as his seat is concern- ted. During the session now drawing to a close he has sat in the chairs of at least 30 members while their reg- ular occupants presided at meetings ofthe committee of the whole, Experienced legislators admit that the work of the house would moy faster if the speaker retained the © vhow speaker to relinquish “the ‘chair dur- lug such sessions and since there are only 112 desks in addition to that of the spenker, he always takes the chair made vacant by the elevation to the rostri of the temporary presiding offic out custom is for the The “committee of the whole” ai rangement in the house is vastly dif- ferent from the system used in the senate where all matters are threshed out in regular session, It is resorted to, Carr explains, in order to give the members more freedom thi usually is permitted in discussiot on the floor and also to save the te@ ord. Another factor is that busie ness is transacted faster in the com- mittee of the whole because there are no roll cal alloting other than “yea” or “nay” is confined to « rising vote. At the close of the session of the committee of the whole the speaker resumes the chair and a formal re- port is made of the business trans- acted by the committee. The report then is formally adopted or rejected. In the case of hard-fought issues a request frequently is made to ai- vide the report of the committee of the whole if it includes more than one bill. The issue then turns upon the question of whether the ‘house, in formal session, shall annrove its own action taken in committee. A roll call vote can be demanded on such matters and the result has been to save an occasional bill from defeat or to defeat one that had been approved by the committee. Must Answer Roll Call The reason lies in the fact that only rising votes are taken in com- mittee on close issues and some! members fail to rise, either for or} against a bill. When their names are called, however, the rules of the house require them to vote unless |excused. The result is that the total jvote on roll calls is almost always | greater than the total vote recorded | ; when the clerks count those, who stand. Speaker. Carr has rarely taken part in any .dise in the committee of the whol this session but when he does his advice is heeded. To date he: has. confined himself largely” to suggestions as to the form of bills or, their: correct interpretation. He has never lifted his voice in a dis- ¢ussion pertaining to policy although he: has voted with the Independents arty issues. an and Independent mem- are called to preside dur- ing “general orders” and Nonparti- express themselves: as % sat- isfied at the treatment they have re- ceived from the presiding officer. . The trend to narrower toes shoes seems to.be one of the major. chan; in men’s footwear destined for this spring. aie does not mean, however, that thé day of the “bal- loon” toe is over, however. The com- fort to be gained from wide toes has established itself’ among men and as a result “balloons” are going to figure: largely in spring styles. The pointed effect, however, gains favor, and trends more toward the English type, although comfort is not sacrific : Simpler designs in dress and busi- ness shoes will be seen this year and in shoe the semi-soft toe will continue in “°° SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1927 C Popularity.

BY ISRAEL KLEIN Science Editor, NEA Service Somehow the car has lost its pep and power. She seems to run more easily than ever. She'll start on a twist of the crank, if need be. But she won't climb the hills she used to take easily in high, she won't pull ahead of traffic she used to. Worst of all, she’s eating up more than her usual quota of gas, and the oil has to be renewed too often. An autopsy on-an engine display- ing such symptoms will most likely reveal worn down pistons and cylin- der’ walls as the major dit ity. hat. happens as a result of this wear is the loss of power through only partial combustion of the fuel and through partial pressure of the expanding gas against the worn cylinder. The rest of the gas escapes through the widened gap between piston and cylinder wall, What's worse is that the un- burned gasoline flows down through, this Bap, mixes with the lubricating ie cranke: and helps play further havoc walls and the bearings.
