Ali Candidates Strong For Good Roads

WASI I INGTON. Motorists may place their bets on nt least one political certainty In the vast presl dcntial racing field. No matter who Is elected, tin? national pood roads movement will receive? the whole-hearted hacking of the White House. Without a single exception, all of tho presidential candidates whose opinions clash on most everything from the reason for L" cent sugar to Uncle Sam's foreign policy, are In perfect accord concerning the vital Issuo of Improved highways as a means to the future economic welfare of the country. Oov. Frank, O. Lowdon declares that pood roads Is the one thins which will check the How or young men and women from farms to cities. (Jen. Leonard Wood believes that the pood roads ' lesion is one of the outstanding features of the war. Herbert Hoover wants n mighty national organization for the establishment of the. greater roads system. W. G. McAdjo believes good mads should sup-

"Overalls" Nets Bright Reporter $10,000

DEAR, dear! Word has reached .Washington from Paris that the overall .movement - to hand a wallop to H. C. L. Is. nothing more than an "advertising stunt." And this after Itepreventatlve Up shaw of Georgia has ; icared In the house In overa; to receive, the applause of less enterprising colleagues; and overall clubs have been formed In every nook and cranny of the land; and lawyers have worn them Into court and escaped a fine for contempt, and dignified bankers have put 'em on; and a Kansas mayor has been Inaugurated In 'em. and the denim parades have marched and countermarched with the bands playing: "Overalls, overalls." and even the girls have put 'em on ! It seems too awful to be true, yet the story from Paris is circumstantial. It says that Habinr like a meteor intp Paris, leaded with more diamonds than the late ".Tim" P.rady, and scattering handfuls of idUs with a prodigality of 'Million Hoilaf" Gates, Johnny Sorensen of New York, the first overall millionaire, who has Just sold out his Interest in the big overall factories in

"No Sportsman" Is Verdict on the German

AMERICA Is a nation of sportsmen, ami the decision of the English and Ilelglan Jockey clubs to bar from participation in racing and the refusal to accept for registration in the Engllrh stud book any alien enemy horses Is of great Interest here. The French Jockey club has nor yet taken any formal action regarding alien owned horses, bu: it may confidently be expected to follow the lead of Its allies and neighbors. Whether the Jockey Club of America will take any action In the premises remains to be seen. The United .States Is so remote from the interdicted countries that there Is little likelihood of any German bred or owned thoroughbreds being seat here for racing. To Cut Soldiers' War WAi: veterans holding government insurance will be able to pay their premiums nt the local post otllccs If congress passes a bill which has Just been approved by the house committee on interstate and foreign comme rev. Tho measure revises the war risk Insurance laws with a view to the elimination of much of tho red tape. Representative Sweet of Iowa has served as chairman of the subcommittee which has been handling this class. of legislation. The plan as outlined In the bill has the approval of the treasury department, of which the bureau of war risk Insurance Is a part. It provides fo- the establishment of 11 regional offices in the United States, The bureau of public health service and the federal board of vocational cducutlon have a like number of offices and an effort Is being made to co-ordinate the work to be rendered hy these three government agencies to eo'idlers, sailors and marines of the recent war. All of these offices will probably be consolidated In one building In each

with America's development. Mr. Hryan says we should celebrate peace by building It memorials In permanent highways, "Every possible facility must be provided to encourage producers of farm commodities and merchandise to Increase production." declares Attorney General V. Mitchell Palmer, nntl II. C. L. leader. "The Improvement and use of public highways. In addition to airways, railways ami waterways. Is vital to the progress and prosperity of the people. "We have had a great object lesson In the paved highways of California." says Senator Hiram Johnson. "They have been a great factor In the development of the state. The Improvement of the highways of the nation undoubtedly will be of great economic value to the country as a whole." "Transportation has made every avenue of civilization," Is the belief of Senator Warren G. Hardin::. There Is no advancement In production and exchange until there am highways- to facilitate the transportation involved." "Good roads construction retarded by the war should now be pushed vigorously," declared Senator Miles Polndoxter. "I favor an extensive system of national roads built by the federal government and located with a view to military defense as well as civic and commercial use, and co-ordinated with existing highways." Newark, X. J.; Schenectady, N. Y., and Buffalo, N. Y., at a thousand per cent profit, arrived at Garage's, grabbing the royal suite. "The overalls campaign In America Is the biggest publicity stunt ever pulled off," said Mr. Sorensbn. "It originated In the brain of a New York reporter, who, seeing the possibilities of the 'story went to the biggest overall firm In the country and put the scheme In operation. He got $10,000 for the Idea and was given a job at the head of the firm's publicity department. Mr. Sorenson said the stock of his company bounded from 43to COO in n few days after the idea was sprung. Sportsmen of all kinds, whether or not Interested In racing, are concerned In this action. The sportsman Is the gentleman of sports. He plays fair. He Is a good winner and n better loser. "All men are equal on the turf and under It." The racing sportsmen of England and ttelgium have served notice on the German that by their standards he Is no sportsman. This action will be a crushing blow to the horse breeding activities of Germany, Austro-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey. Thoroughbred sires, most of them of English lineage, were tho foundation of the great army and racing studs developed by Germany and Austro-Hungary. The best were none too good in the establishment of a type of general purpose horse. The English Derby winners, Ard Patrick and Galtee Moore, each cost $110,000, and were among the fine sires that were available to farmers and breeders at a nominal fee. . Germany maintained racing on a more or less pretentious scale during the war, and there was no let up In breeding. Insurance Red Tape

Attractive Model Pulls About Fiflure; Shorter Design fcr Girls; Headgear Is Colorful.

Capes have by no 'means disappeared oft the face of the earth. In fa c;, their numbers have Increased astonishingly, according to a New York fashion authority. The shorter capes are the newest Idea of a well-worked scheme capes that reach the waistline or just a little below, and then are so constructed that they pull about the figure, forming a tight little place In the middle of the back, from which lines of draping Ln.-r v. These shorter eapelets are particularly smart for the younger people, (hie would never suspect a rape of being surprisingly youthful, pud yet these abbreviated affairs are certalnl that. They are made, too. In fur, loose enough to be thrown back so that they will not become burdensome on warmer days. The cape, indeed, outside of the little animal neckpiece, is the fur Idea of the moment. Many are the variations In style that have sprung into the popular market during the last few weeks. The hats that are most numerous along the avenue are bright and springlike in their coloring. There seems to be a decided leaning toward very bright and sparkling hats worn with coats or dresses or suits that are low and decidedly dark In tone. There is no happier combination. It is no wonder, that, especially In the springtime, women lean to bright colored hats. They mala the streets look as though there was some reason for ayety and happiness. Of course, the CHIC BLACK TAFFETA FROCK This Is a short skirted and wide hipped black afternoon frock of taffeta which has been developed along the latest French lines. Are Still Slim Tailleurs and One-Piece Frocks Have Changed Noticeably From Last Summer's Styles. That Paris is herself again is the general agreement of those who have seen her fashion collections for 1920, according to Vogue. A new silhouette the "rove a pouf," Paris calls It Is introduced by several of the houses nnd Is featured by at least one of them. This silhouette, which adapts in charming frocks the bustle line of the eighties, is very becoming to certain small and slender types of women, who undoubtedly will feel the spell of its novelty and charm. Its novelty, however, is somewhat less In America than in Paris, for this silhouette was revived to some extent In America during the war. Straight lines will be the rule of daytime. In tailleurs and one-piece frocks the lines seem to be even Etralghter than they were last summer. Hips are still lightly accentuated In some models, but this tendency is less noticeable this season than last. Many suits are simple and rather ftrictly tailored, while others made of taffeta and other silken materials are elaborated with embroidery and really t elong In the class of afternoon costumes.

The design is handpainted in black, the effect being unusual, distinctive and quite stunning. preen hat In tho jade shades Is the thing of the moment for those who can wear that color. And it is a color that Is not easily adapted to. those whose coloring does not exactly suit it. But then there are red hats colorings to suit every type of complexion and the woman who has not at least one of these bright turbans is out of fashion's running. The hats, as never before, tend toward a tilt off the face. For many years we had the hats with slightly turned down brims. Now we have swung to extremes in the other direction, anil nothing seems right on the head unless it turns directly away from the face. "Tains" and threecornered hats turning away from the forehead hold the lead. Bold Stripes Modish Again. The old-fashioned stripe is boldly getting into some of the new wool challis, cashmeres and Into cotton fabrics. They are seen in navy blue on white, cream and dull red grounds. The green stripes prevail on gray, light tan and white grounds. Red stripes are pronounced on white grounds. These fabrics are for skirt: to be worn with white waists or with waists of the color of the stripe. New Spring Shade. Spring frocks of silk are in shades aptly named, such as sulphur, cinder, moth, pebble, eagle and scarab. Woolen materials may be of a dune shade, canton or musketeer blue, or date or bison brown. Quail, dove and crane are shades of taupe and gray. and Straight of f kirts might be specified, but, in general, street clothes remain short. FASHIONS IN BRIEF Loop fringe of tinsel thread Is used to outline designs on foulard and taffeta frocks. Colored embroidery on white collar and cuffs makes a dainty finish for wash dresses for little folks. Panniers caught up In puffs add the necessary boufTant effect on some of the newest skirt models. Loose-legged Mexican boots of soft tan leather are a correct accompaniment of the sport costume. Ivory, amber and tortoise-shell are a few of the expensive mounts that are shown for small bags of elegance. Pink crepe narrowly hemmed with black satin and embroidered in black satin leaves Is one of the newer effects In lingerie that appeals to those seeking -the unusual. Elaborate .handkerchiefs adorned with real lace and handwork of drawn thread are a necessary accessory, following the arrival of gorgeous ostrich fans. The Spanish note 'continues predominant In fashions for evening gowns, and the woman who possesses old Chantllly lace Is fortunate as well as entirely in the mode if she chooses to take advantage of her opportunity to achieve a beautiful evening frock. Frilly Neckwear Favored. All the frilly forms of neckwear are in high favor.

Six Bugle Blasts: Lost

NEW YORK. Night had fatlen over the ranges of forested hills which extend through the Palisades Interstate Park of New York and New Jersey. The lake lying at their feet were swathed with dense mist while the tree fops cut sharply Into low masses of clouds. Ten large encampments, housing over 2,000 boy scouts. lay buried in silence. Suddenly nt midnight word flew .to headquarters that out In tho great woods somewhere a boy was lost. A youngster tenderfoot from the big metropolis had strayed from his own campfire and no trace of him had been found. As quickly as the word had come, so rapidly It sped by motor cars, with motor boats pulsing their way flashlighting to all of the camps. As swiftly rs It came, so from out the many darkened tents fifteen hundred odd boy scouts fled, fleet of foot, on their errand of seeking the lost scout. Ilere In one direction a hundred lads thrashed the oaken and laurel under Love at First Sight, BALTIMORE. Surprising their friends. Miss Alice Prince, daughter of Mr. and Mr?. Edward Prince of Elliott City, and Walter Baker, thirtythree years old of Brooklyn. N. Y.. Instructor In carpentry and automobile mechanics at the Evergreen Red Cross Institute for tho Blind, announced they had eloped to Alexandria, Va., where they were married. They are now living nt Barracks, No. 7, at the Institution. Mr. Baker probably Is, excluding Miss ITelen Keller, one of the most remarkable blind persons in the world. Blind since he was twelve years old, he was graduated with honors from Columbia university. The government sent him overseas to do vocational work among the blind soldiers and to cheer them. He served a year and a half overseas. The success of his work among the blinded men was realized, and he was made Instructor at Evergreen. It was at a dance last autumn at Evergreen that the romance began. To say that It was a case of "love at first sight" would be only one-half true, and yet tli.it Is just what it was. Miss Prince is an expert automobilOn With the Dance, CHAPE MM V t J Its! WINNETKA, ILL. Please pass tho hemlock to Cupid.

A bride of eighty-seven years, with a big floppy hat rippling around her face, dragged her ruined romance before Judge Samuel Trade, in the court of domestic relations. The bride Is Mrs. Albert Ropp, formerly Dr. Marian Paitson. for years a practicing physician In Chicago. She owns valuable real estate, a neat bank account, and a lace curtain laundry.

Boy Scout Is Found

Up the hillsides numerous others groped and combed the Interlaced woods, while other-: In varied groups splashed through swampland and tangled thick eis, all Intent on their duty. Over tho high ridges long rows of lights flickered wanly, piercing the vapors. Now and again shrill voices were heard reechoing back and forth calling, calling. Toward morning niays of haggard, tense scouts reported to headquarters that their warch had been fruitless. From across the lakes and distant waterways swept hurriedly fresh troops ready and anxious to continue th search. It was then that a brisk wind tossed away the blankets- of fog, revealing the kindly stars above. Now as the hours lengthened along the roads, from distant valleys, from gullies and rocky corridors drenched with penetrating vapors you caught tho muffled tramp of boy scout feet. No longer did you hear them calling, for day was beginning to break. If the little lad were unharmed he would have answered! Then from afar six sharp blasts of a bugle spoke, sounded nnd resounded, the hills taking up the message. At last tho lost boy scout was found and alive! On that Instant the assemblage of scouts who were resting nnd waiting rose as one, and solemnly, with right hand to temples, saluted their little comrade. Yet Only Half True NTV T 1 -sBV 1st and has her own car. The two took weekly automobile trips, Miss Prince calling at EvcTgreon with her machine, driving the blind hero In her car to her parents home every Sunday. Miss Prince was engaged In vocational work at Fort McIIcnry and Evergreen and also found time to devote to the work of tho Travelers' Aid society at Camden station. She Is a handsome young woman of the blond type. She studied music two years at the Peabody Institute.

Don't Indulgo In that languishing movement." Now take your ruler and measure yourself off about six or seven Inches from your Dartner. Scale your bodies with your compass to see that they; are exactly parallel from head to foot. Then, quoting tho deans rules again: "Leader places his right hand lightly between the shoulders of his partner,' keeping the elbows at an angle of 00 1 degree from his body, his left hand extended, palm up, and clasps hl3 partner's right hand. "Partner's left hand rests lightly just back of the curve of the leader's shoulder, her elbow at an obtuse' angle from her body and not resting upon that of the leader. A straight; line from these bent elbows would bo parallel with both bodies." Maintaining these postures, tho couple glides off Into tho new geometrical dance. It's all parallel llnca and angles.
