jest Wednesday night lashed to the
front of Heckman & Co.'s auto, gaily
decorated for the occasion, Dick Neil
circumnavigated the town. If there
were any bars in the course of naviga
tion that the pilot missed it was purely
that the pilot missed it was purely
an oversight. He was afterwards

ARBITRATION ALONE USELESS
-(From Century Magazinei
No world power of today would
3rbitrate any vital matter with Ame
rica if she thought she could take
from us by force anything she need
ed, a thing that she could do as
easily as an efficient thug lifts a
watch and wallet from a fat rrtiilion
a: re .unworthy heir of veri'.e grand
sires. Never will Great Britain,
Russia. Germany or Japan arbitrate
a vital dispute with America if they
have power to dispense with arbi
tration and to smash ns to our knees
with a sudden blow.
Arbitration with preparedness for
self-defense is ridiculous; it is in
deed a contradiction in terms. A
sacred agreement resulting from sol
emn arbitration is certainly of far
greater value than any mere pros
pect of such arbitration, for it is in
fact the realization of the most san
guine hopes of the arbitrators. Yet
within this very year the futility of
depending solely upon such agree
ments has been proved upon naked
bodies of unprepared Belgium. Persia
nad China.
Last year, when the war broke out
brave and thrifty Switzerland was
fully prepared to defend her freedom
and her honor, despite the fact that
both were already supposed to be
protected by the most solemn inter
national treaties that can be produ
ced by successful and fair minded
arbitrators. Belgium preoccupied
with business affairs and with the
►taking money, trusted almost en
tirely to sacred treaties, also the
product of calm arbitration. For
America the fate of Belgium is as
a writing on the wall which plainly
proclaims that the only valid insu
rance against unprovoked attack is
reasonable military agsrress'os. For
then, and then oniy.would Germany
have respected arbitration and it;
sacred treaties, and have invaded
France through the Franco-German
border.
For treaties between nation; am
hke contract between re mots, a r
OTJScrnqsIous person will refra:"
from breaking a contract only when
the penalty attached thereto 5;
greater than the gain.

I The Return of Miss Petticoat 1
I After masquerading in various guises—such as the j|
^ tango=skirt, the sheath like skirts and a host of other varieties |
*=the petticoat is with us again for a season or two. But she |
| is wonderfully changed. Instead of the old stiff and starchy |
kind, a mass of muslin, embroidery and lace, we now have a |
H demure, simple and graceful garment, so necessary for proper |
lines in the new fall skirt; which is short and swirls about so $
much when one walks or dances. |
The most interesting feature, however, is the low |
price which Heckman’s are selling the new petticoats for: |
