There Was noth- “ing elge for them to do provided they There is béund to be much inte- rest in the statement that was made by President Shea of tHe gas and electrical commission, which was lat- er suppéerted by Commissioner Jen- sén, when he said that for the next five years it ought to be good sailing in the gas and eléctric plant. From that we are to gather that the out- Jook for business amd the means of meeting it are good. It is: indicated that during that time we will be get- ting the benefit of the improvements whieh have been made at the plant and which have cost much money. For that the people will look with pleasamt anticipation even as they have recognized in the past the bene- fits they have been getting in the way of cheaper rates, The aim must be‘as long as we have a municipally owned gasand elec- trieal plant, to keep it up to the high- est standard of efficiency. Reference wa& made to the pavment of fancy priees for coal which raises the ques- tien as to whether it is possible at a plant of this size to manufacture eleétricity as economically as it can be purchaséd. If we can we want to continué to manufacture it, but if it is péssible to buy it at a lower cost 2nd thereby eliminate the expenses of renewing equipment every now and then and be certain of getting current * when it is wanted, it appears.to be a business proposition that ought té be thoroughly looked inte. If it is pos- sible to acquire electricity from pro- ducers who can possibly make one. pound of coal do what it takes thrée and a half to do at our plant, and all coal bears a fancy price thése days, it seéms to be a situation demanding a thordugh investigation, not only to see whether it is so, but for the end of thé five year period if not for the present. GERMANY’'S REVOLUTIO Among the other problems that are awaiting adjustment in Europe must now be added the new situation have been indications that all was “~not gerene in that country fer some little time, and it will bé reealled ~~that the pleas of the Ebert govern- ment to the allies for easing up on thé peace requirements and particu- larly the delivery. of certain Geérmand for trial by the alliés were based upon the claims that to attempt to carry bdut such provisiens would mean the downfall of the government. That to a degree. displayed the weakness and the inability of thosé in power there to direct affairs. That they read the feeling of the people aright is now indieatéd by the fact ~that despite the leniency secured from the allies the government has been ousted. And the most conspicuous part of the whole affair is that whileit sééms to have been fully realized in advance that it was underway and it was known who were directing it sufficient econtrol was not possessed by the Ebert government to attempt resistance, Thé much talked about forces were not called upon and it will have to be -numbereq among the few bloodless, revolutions theugh, of course the end is not yet. Naturally much interest surteunds the attitude that the new government takes toward the terms of peace and whether it will get the support of the people. Its leaders are members of the reactionary group, those who stéod out for the continuance of the war and.who worked in harmony with the von Tirpitz pelicies, They are sympathizers with the old regime and it is significant that they should have been favorites with Prussia, Sentiment in Germany is nevertheless divided ang the situation will be fol lowed with deep concern as the na- . tiemal assembly is reconvened and new developments take place. STILL BREAKING AGREEMENTS Onee again the dockworkers of ‘New York have gone on a strike mnd they hope to get the workers of other citiés to jein them in demands for increased wages eéven though they have an agreement that runs for more than five months. In the case of their previeus strike when so much inconvenience was caused by the t¥ing up of transportation they wére disregarding their agreement and now within six months of that time, despite the new agreement they are tossing it aside as a scrap of paper and planning to causs not only the steamship owners but all these who are dependent upsn such ser- vice all the trouble iy possibly can instead of putting forth their best efforts to reach an amicable so- Tutien. Heére is another case of chasing the high cost of living, but there ap- pears to be a total disregawd for any- oné élse or a dispssition to listen te reason. As in such cases the de- mands unquestionably are placéd at a higher figure than thay expect to get, and even though there is an agreement the fact that the ship- owners are prepared to grant the men ation is open to a fair settlement. But whén in defiance of the sérvice to the public and without deferencd to thme attitude of the owners théy Zo out on strike their very act de- stroys whatever sympathy they might otherwise arouse. 3 It is a regrettable fact that the leaders of such men are not guided by different policies. e is no reason why a settlement could not bé réached while the men remained at work, but the vefy fact that agréé- ments in the past havé been ‘éatirely disragarded it cannét fail to be im- pressed upon . them tl there is bound to be a disposition to discount any promise that the men make for the future. By their own actions they have made their pesition all the more difficult to maintain. DANGERS AHEAD Evidence continues to pile up against the id#a of providing a bonus for the servicé men in the recent war. In additién to what service men them- selves have said and what a member of thé. Américan Legion's executive committee has stited it cannmet fdil te be recognized that little tHeught has| Been given to thé diffieulty in car-| rying out such a peliey. Not only has the setretary of the treasury and his assistant opposed such legislation as would provide for a two billion déllar bonus but it has received the disapproval of congres- sional leaders and the head of the federal reserve board. They deéal with the danger that would be in- volved in attempting to float a bond issue to care for such a provision and point out the effect it would have upon the cost of living, credit and the sevéral issues of - governmfent honds already issuéd bécause of the war. . Nothing but discouragement there- fore appears to' conifront the efforts for a bonus through bords. There is the alternative of taxdtion and whenéver the mérits of the two meth- ods are discussed that is considéred the logical one if anything of the kind is to be attempted. But haste in such a matter is meeting with even greater -discoufagement, for it is fully realized that it would be a de- cidedly different course than pursued in other wars. It was more than a generation following the Revolution- ary war that anything in the way of money was voted the vetérans and then only to those who were needy and a quarter of a century passed be- fire the:service pension for the Civil war vetergns hectfia efeotive. Nothing should be alloweéd to stand in the way of giving every witeuation ‘to the sick and crippled but for those lnl good health afid in many instahcés far better off than they ever were be- fore thére is nothing that calls for histy action. ———ia DELAY, THE CAUSE Perhajs thére may bé some satis- faction defived from thé British standpoint of maifitaining that this country is te blame fer the troubles fhat have afisen in Turkey, but it will get little sympdathy on this side of the water. Regardiéss of what may be charged t6 the Unitéd States con- cernihg the Adriatic gituation it is perfectly evident that we had ne fing- er in the Turkish pie, in spite of the fact that it was the desirs of Europe that we shiuld, It is a fact well] known of course that we were never at war with Turkey ana that we have constantly maintained that we want- ed ne' hand in directing the govern- ment of' any of thé ceuntries in Bu- rope or the near éast. The allies were urgent in their de- sire that the United States should take the mandate fér the near east. Had it been willing to have done so it is entirely possible that the situa- tion there woyld net be what is is today. There woyld have been a defi- nite peliey arranged and .it weuld probably have beén underway at the present time. But there was ne chance from the first that we weuld undertake such a task, even in Ar- menia toward which thé country is most kindly dispésed. Whatever de- lay there has been concerning’ this couritry and its connéétion with near east affairs has been due to the un- justified idea that we- eduld he pre- vailed upon té6 aceept = mandate in that quarter, and the apparemt un- willingness to aepépt thé plainly ex- pressed and - unfaverable sentiment of the country against such a step. The fact is that there hag been a dawdling pelicy followeq with thé re- sult that there is wrangling over the dispositien of the spoils. Delays hdve cauted trouble and even given the Turks time t0 set up strenger re- sistance. Had the adjustment of the Turkish affairs been earrisd out months ago there are reasons te be- lieve that. fresent day troubles would have been obviated.

Ehtire capes of gray squirrel fur are among the ‘meost luxurious garments, Bulgarian embroidery, in bright col- ors, is seén on some of the spring blouses. 3 - Angora cloths in Scotch plaids, or with blazer stripes, are used for skat- ing coats. 'RIBBON FOR BAGS. Salesmen now on the road with rib- bon lines are sending in good orders and the trade as & whole is described as being in a healthy condition. Pro- duction still fails to.come up to what manufacturers desire, and the record es of raw silk are giving a ‘very rm tone to ribborvalues. While the call from the bag trade is not as active as it was, the logs in this di- reéction is more than made up by the business coming from the suit trade. Vestees are no longer separate arti cles, but are . incorporated in ‘war- ments, which aceounts for the en- tfance of the suit manufacturers into the ribbon trade for the first time in several years. 2 TWO KINDS OF SKIRTS. Business on separate skirts scems confined to two principal styles, one with the side plaits and the other the circular model. The latter is made With & very wide bottom, and generally has two seams, one on each side. The plaitéd models are brought out in a number of variations, combining the various kinds of plaiting. The popu- lar materials are those on the velour order, and others of fine worsteds. Plaids are used to a large extent in the plaited models, owing to the at- tractiveness of- this design when work- ed out in such patterns. Checks and stripes in a number of designs are employed in the manufacture of cir- cular models. EVENING WRAP. For evening it is very chic to wear a brocaded wrap. One of the color schemes most in favor is a combina- tion of hlack and gold. Effective as one could possibly wish is a wrap with a huge enveloping collar of quil ed satin edged deeply with black fox. Gold galloons and heavy: gilt cords serve still more to enhance the charm. LAUNDRY HINTS. Use a smooth, well-tnade béard.

BATTING COSTUMES. If one éan judge from what one sees in the shops at this seasen of the year as to the coming summr sea-surf fash- ions it looks pretty much as though there ‘would bé a lot of starting cos- tumeés and accessories worn. The pre- fectly plain black silk bathing costume eompletely. smothered in deep fringe is going to be one of the most popular models, Dolman wraps of rubber are also go- | ing to be véry mueh worn. Already there are any number of striking com- binations of eclors in these capes. One that was attracting considerable at- tention was of white rubher, with deep yoke in black rubber, and from this yéke hung deep fringe the léngth of the cape, this in black and white rubber also. On the yoke were queer figures cut out of white rubber. Can’t you imagine how startling this cape will look on the beach? BREAKFAST CAPS. 1 Extremely becoming as well as youthful locking are the newest break- They are really nothing out strips of lace insertion and ribbeén, combined with the éver pepular rese- bBuds sewn together to form a wide bandeau.

Meost of these caps aré made in the flimsiest of silk laces and nbow colored ribbons, and are fascinating, to say the least. FLOWER TRIMMING. ; Flower trimming on hats is in high faver; in fact, mever before has flower trimming been used so much in winter, A clevér idea ds to take the hat that you bought at the ba’innh\c of the season te the rhillinér's and have it thoroughly cleaned and freed from dust and then have all the old trim- ming replaced with a trifiming of gayly colored flowers.

Such curtding should be treated by a epecial process. First soak them overhight in eold water. Next morning put them in enourh as eream is not the ecru you soft. warm, verv soapy water and wash them till perfectly clean. Lacé or madras curtains usually need no rubbing. You have only to squeeze and press the soft material in the soap suds and the dirt, loosened by an overnight scaking in cold water, will come out readily.

Fiva cénts’ worth ow saffron may he 4dded to a quart of water and boiled or a-moment, Strain and add to the rinsing water, Save a little of the saffron water for the starch water into which the cur- tains go last of al. Then press out the water without wringing, spread the curtains between clean sheets and press out all the moisture you can. After whieh the curtains may be iron- ed, or dried on curtain frames, HOW TO CONSERVE. To conserve sugar—Mix ome eup of sugar with one-quarter cup of ‘corn starch.

Then remove the marrow from the bones and remove all the outside skin. The meat with the fibres in it place on the stove and boil verk slow- ly until well cooked. 7'he bones and small pieces put over and boil. When partly cooked add one- quarter pound of butter. Then put in two oniong, two potatdes, one turnip, a little cab- bage, celéry and parsley. This makes a delicious soup. If you have more than you like can it.
