IMMENSE FLAT HATS ARE ONLY TO
ENJOY SHORT SEASON OF POPULARITY
Devotees of Wide Brims and Low
LIKE all tilings extreme or eccentric,
the Immense flat liat, with Its
yards upon yards of silken or vel
vet swathings and its widely spread
In? wings, is to enjoy but a brief sea
son of popularity. To ba sure, exceed
ingly smart and modish specimens of
millinery, of that extravagant width
of brim and flattening of crown, which
rime to us so short a time ago .straight
from Paris, with the stamp of the ultra
fashionable thing; upon it, are still to
be seen and are being sold In the
most exclusive millinery establishments,
but according to the confidential tips of
milliners in touch with the very latest
whims of Dame Fashion, the weeks of the
big. flat hat are numbered. Of course.

Features of the Davis Bill, Now Before Congress Its Object, Universal
Teaching of Mechanics, Heme Economics and Farming.
BT E. P. ROSENTHAI
OF all the legislation which is distilled
In the Congressional laooratory
there Is none so pleasing to the
multitude ns the Davis bill. Rvery edu
cator Is intoxicated with Its aroma. Re
formers, professors and good housekeep
ers have united in beseeching Constress
with petitions to make the Davis bill a
law.
House Bill 1S204. Sixtieth Congress, pro
vide ail appropriation for agricultural
and Industrial education In secondary
s' hools. and for branch agricultural ex
perimental stations in the several states
and territories. !nd for Industrial train

What tlie Davis Bill Includes.
1. Appropriation to begiu July I. lsll.
Z. Instruction to ba given in sericul
ture and home economics in agricultural
high schools of secondary grade.
5. Instruction to be i?iven in mechanic
arts and home economics In city schools
of secondary grade.
4. Instruction In ngrirulture, mechanic

territorial normal schools.
G The Federal appropriations are to be

distinctive studies.
fi. Tlie Secretary of Agriculture is ln
t rutted' t' estimate to Congress the al
lotments to be made to each state and
-rritory. and to deslffnate to the Secre
Cvns Still Cling to Their Possessions, But Smaller Hats With Low
those to whom the wide brims and low
crowns are becoming will not banish
their beloved and expensive possessions
immediately, and local milliners predict
a fuir percentage of sales for this type
of hat through the remainder of the sea
son, but the tendency towards the small
hat, of pronounced crown, is already
noticeable u;ion the streets, and in the
new millinery displays.
A selection of several leading styles In
the new small hats, each with the Paris
ian stamp upon it, wasviuaite for The
Oregonlan's artist by the manager of one
of Portland's leading millinery shops, and
tha sketches are shown herewith.
A natty little affair of Copenhagen blue
velvet, with a soft, crush crown, is shown
In No. 1. Two long, saucy quills, with
a tiny bow of "velvet ribbon in a darker
tary of the Treasury the sum appropri
ated. 7. The sum for each state and terri
tory to be derived in this way: (a) Each
Incorporated city, town or village con
taining not less than 3uu0 Inhabitants
shall receive not more than 10 cents per
capita for the population, (b) The total
rural and other population not included
In said cities, towns and villages shall
receive also not more than 10 cents per
capita.
8. Branch agricultural experimental
stations are to be maintained on tlie
farms of the agricultural secondary
schools, and one-fourth of the Federal
appropriation for the agricultural second
ary schools Is to be used for this ex
periment station.
9. The appropriation for normal schools
Is to be 1 cent per capita of population.
10. To secure the appropriation for the
branch experiment station each legisla
ture must provide for tiie establishment
and equipment of the branch station, and
must provide, for the annual mainten
ance, s sum equal to that granted by the
Federal Government.
11. Hxperiments undertaken by these
branch experiment stations shall bear di
rectly upon tha agricultural Industry of
the United States, with due regard to
the varying needs and conditions of the
respective states.
li The Secretary of Agriculture is re
quired to see that funds are not side
tracked, but used to bost advantage for
the promotion of both instruction and experimentation.
. A
shade in the center of the front, is the
only item ot trimming upon this simple
littie affair.
One of the new Parisian toques Is shown
In Xo. 2. This toque is the merest cap
of crushed velvet in golden brown, and
at the left side a miniature bird of para
dise perches saucily, the Ions soft plum
axe curling gracefully backward and to
the side. Two other smart styles of
toque are shown in No. 4 and No. 5. the
first being a pretty combination of fur
and velvet with a long curling plume, the,
color notes being In gray and blue; a
tvpe of the simple fur toque Is given In
No. 5. For this style fancy hows, as
shown'ln the sketch, or large silken rosea
are used in the trimming. Pretty com
binations and Contrasts of color are also
seen in fur and novelty feather pompons.
No. 3 s'.iows a modification of tlie large

for each five counties.
14. Separate schools for colored people
may be established as each state de
cides, fair division of money being made
to both races.
13. An annual report must go to the
Governor of each state from each school
established under this grant.
16. Tlie Secretary of Agriculture is to
keep Consres3 posted In regard to re
ceipts and expenditures and on the work
of the institutions provided for under this
bill.
Why the Bill Is Favored.-
The advocates 'of the bill vary as to
their reasons for favoring the same. Some
welcome it because they see in It a
socialistic example. The educator wants
to uplift the worker and with pride he
points out that, through education, here
and there a worker has become emanci
pated from toll by becoming 'a great
lawyer or professor. Then there are some
who, though they do not know what the
Davis bill means, belong to that ma
jority who are thankful for any gifts
which com their way. An old adage
savs: "Look not a gift horse In the
mouth." but a gift is a suspicious ob
ject, and no matter what shape or form
It takes, be it a Carnegie library, a
Rockefeller university or a high protec
tive tariff, it should be minutely scruti
nized, for getting something for nothlpg
Is not Just, and no good ever comes from
that which 1." wrong.
We favor he Davis bill for the reason
that it aims at the correct practice In
education.
Much that we call education is con
densed hot air. wrongly labeled. Our
svstrm of teaching is the very opposite
of education and no patching or tinkering
can better It. Every child born, you say,
Crowns Are Soon to Be Fashion
flat hat, the brim losing something In
width and gaining something In crown.
The mass of ostrich plumes gives par
ticularly airy and graceful effect.
Two smart little fancy hats are shown
In No. 6 and No. . No. 6 is a natty
combination of cerise and gray, the
swathing being of soft cerise novelty
velvet, and the binding is also in cerise,
the felt and wing being of delicate gray.
Exceedingly smart and effective Is the
graceful combination of fur, velvet and
aigrettes sketched in No. 9. The color
tones are in dark blue and brown, and
the novelty buckle Is of jeweled silver.
No. 8 is a new shape in black velvet, the
wings being in white and the sash, with
the pendant fringe, being in gold braid.
A pretty combination of silken roses, in
soft, duli browns and grays, with turquoise-blue
velvet, is sketched in No. 7.
should have the right to an education.
If education has a right to be. we assent
to that, but let us take that argument a
little farther. If any one child has a
right to a complete education, every other
child should have that right. The aver
age child cannot possibly pass an exami
nation which would entitle him to the
degree of B. A. before the age of 22. The
degree of .M. A. lie cannot reach before he
is 26. and to pass through all the alpha
betical titles to Ph. D. and D. he
would have passed the prime of life. Dur
ing this time he would be a consumer and
not a producer. Oh, what a dilemma!
The total in adding rights will never
sum up wrong, and here, you say there
is virtue In giving a number of children
a complete education though it would re
sult in an injury if all children were to
enjoy that privilege. fr who would do
the producing while society went to
school? So. without further argument,
we must admit that there Is something
wrong in our theory. Yes, our theory
Is wrong.
Must I-earn Practical Things.
Schools and colleges are the last places
in which an education is obtained. If
education means anything it means de
velopment of students, so as to enable
them to succeed In life. A child may
superficially commit to memory sufficient
facts and rules to enable him to pass ex
aminations, but does that give him tlie
ability to cope with life? To control the
product of the soil, to master his tool at
the workman's bench, he must do honest
and real work, or nature will get the best
of him. There can be no compromise
or negligence In dealing with facts.
We. are so enan ored with our intellectual
greatness that we have lost the capacity
for common sense. What .society needs,
and what it must have In order to pros
per and progress, is that every member of
sociotv have the capacity of producing
for his needs. Thereby the burden of so-
An ..a llv SnrnA hv all. The
practicallzation or tnougnc is ma" .c-a"
of gratifying his needs. Thought is the
very primary science on which all the
other sciences are based, and the man has
vet to appear who is capable of teach
ing others to think. Here society can do
nothing for its members, but what so
ciety can do and should do is to shape
Its affairs so that the thoughts which
come to Its members and are expressed
by them should be healthy, and it is only
bv labor that thought becomes healthy,
and onlv by thought that labor becomes
pleasufeable. and the product which Is
the result of a labor of pleasure is artis
tic. Iabor, Art and Education the Same.
Labor, art. education, are one and the
same. When a man puts thought into his
labor his product becomes artistic and
he Is being educated thereby; he de
velops. An artistic farmer is one who
puts thought into his work by making
his farm-beautiful and not one who neg
lects his farm to paint sunsets. An edu
cated workman i3 one whose work ex
presses thought, and not one who gives
up his work to become a professor of law.
A theoretical. industrial. agricultural
school will turn out a theoretical, indus
trial, agricultural student; that is, he
will be able to give you a lecture on
chairs, write a thesis on cabbage, an
ideal salesman for a patent chickr-n burg
lar alarm, and if he is very talented he
might lecture on the arts and crafts
movement, but will be utterly useless so
far as helping in the production of things
Is concerned. The head of a great tech
nical school is a Presbyterian minister,
ot another a teacher of F.nglish. Both
have the title of Ph. D.-both nice gen
tiemra but howacan you expect them to
teach another that which they, do not
know? Theoretical teaching Is Instructing
a blind man as to the color of the rain-
how I have never yet sen a grauuaie
of anv technical school who Is at work
In -some shop actually producing things.
Thev generally drift into a second-hand
salesmanship or go behind the counter.
A true educational institution where
man will develop himself is a practical
farm, a practical workshop, whero prod
ucts for use are actually made. 1 lie
Ideal (college will he vastly different from
the objects which pa-s for a scat of

also include the church and man through
his labor will worship his maker. By
changing the conditions In the shop so
that work may bcome a pleasure, the
work produced there will he artistic;
the worker will be developed and there
can be no greater brotherly love than the
accomplishment of this. This education
would be democratic. It would include
nil of society, even the grown-ups. for
there Is no age limit to the development
of man. Man is useful so long as he
develops, and he develops so long as he
lives True education makes useful mem
bers'of society while they are being edu
cated, and they are being educated so
long as they are useful. What change
from our present system which trams
useless beings who are a burden to so
ciety while being trained and parasites
ever after. Schools and colleges can
never give a practical education, for the
product which would result from prac
tical work would interfere with outside
profits and nothing can stand in :ho way
of the God of Proats. not even the edu
cation of man. But the present system
gives us football to make up for the ex
ercise which is received from a Practical
education, so let us all unite with the

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS
TO COME SOON.
Will Probably Be Established
Within Eighteen Months.
Washington Special to Chicago Tribune
While It is true there is little or no
prospect of the passage of a postal sav
ins bank bill at this session of Con
gress, and while it might be unwise to
attempt such radical legislation in a
hurry, it Is true that the savings-bank
bill which Is to come up in the Senate
next Monday is almost certain to be
enacted into law nearly In its present
shape.
It is the purpose of the administra
tion to carry through this legislation,
if it possibly can be done, at the reg
ular session of the next Congress, be
ginning the flist Monday In December.
1909 There will be a good deal of
opposition to it. as a matter of course,
from certain special inerests; but the
general sentiment in favor of it
throughout the country is so over
whelming, and both parties are so com
mitted to It, the Republicans positively
and the Democrats indirectly, that
members of Congress will And it hard
to oppose the measure when it is once
actuallv put upon its passage.
The chances are, therefore, that by
the Fourth of July, 1910. which will be
several months in advance of tlie Con
gressional elections that year, the Re
publican platform pledge will be ful
filled and the country will be suppied
with a savings hank system as strong
as the Government itself.
Features of the Bill
One of the notable features of the
proposed svstem will be its democracy
and the safeguards thrown around the
rights ot individuals. In the proposed
law a provision is enacted that any
child of the age of 10 years or over
may have a savings bank account In
his own name, absolutely free from
the control of his parents. A married
woman similarly may put her savings
Into the Government bank and they
will remain her own until she of her
own motion takes them out.
Another feature in the democratic or
peoples bank will be the permission
to deposit extremefy small sums. The
minimum original deposit is fixed at
1 but after that time separate de
posits of 10 cents or more may be made
as often as a thrifty person has the
money to spare.
Interest Ceases at SSOO.
Interest begins at the opening of
each quarter, and once in every year
U will bo added to and become a part
of the principal, so that the compound
ing will go on year after year as long
as the depositor allows his money to
remain in the custody of the Govern
ment. Not only Is the minimum of de
posit essentially a democratic one. but
the maximum is equally so. No one will
be permitted to have a postal savings
bank account to exceed $1000. and the
interest ceases when the total reaches
half that sum. According to the gener
ally accepted plan, the Government pro
poses to pay 2 per cent per annum on
its postal savings account.
Most of the savings banks under the
state laws pay 3 and 4 per cent. They
accept much largeri total accounts than
the Government proposes to do. It is
therefore figured out by the advocates
of postal savings banks that in the long
run the private banks will be gainers
and not losers by the Government's
financial operations. According to this
theory, a man who saves up $300 on
Interest and finds that tlie interest stops
at that sum. will be more than likely to
Invest it In a private savings bank or in
the purchase of a -house and lot, or In
an interest-bearing mortgage.
Then he could return to his postal sav
ings bank for his daily accumulation, the
babit of saving inducing him to re
Invest his money at a larger rate of
interest as long as the money market Is
stable and he feels certain of security
for hU deposit.
All postofflccs which Issue domestic
money orders will be savings banks, to
gether with others to be designated by
the Postmaster-General.
GNAGGS COMPLAIN?
NO, HNEVERI)OES!
Merely Admonishes Mrs. Gnaggs Mildly on Subject Tailored Suit3.
R- 'GNAtfG, having been gently
J sounded by Mrs. Gnagg on the sub-
1 ject of a tailored suit for herself,
admonishes her as follows, in the New
Tork Sun:
Certainly. Get two tailored suits. Get
three tailored suits. Get half a dozen of
'em.
I don't s?e how a woman of your sta
tion and circumstances of life could think
of getting along on less than haif a
dozen tailored suits anyhow. A woman
has got to dress up to her standing, ot
course, and as the wife of a millionaire
why, you really should rate two or three
dozen tailored suits.
I say millionaire because that's what
you appear to think I am. The rest of
the world knows me and I know myself
as the most pauperized church mouse
that ever chewed the excelsior out of a
pew cushion. But the important thing,
of eounse, Is what you consider me to be;
and since according to your view I've, got
about nine-tenths of all the money in
tlie world why. CO right ahead and get
a tailored suit for every hour of the
day. I've got just about as much chance
to pav for a whole flock of tailored suits
as I have to pay for one of the kind
vou're. talking about.

an awful lot of money for a nice tailored

ancient stuff about you not having a

four or five days behind the style. Per
fectly shriveling experience for you. i

would subject a woman to that kind or
degradation ought to be hanged.

not totally blind, and it i uu... .

nue 2nd Broadway, then I can t see as
far as I can fling a baby grand piano,
that's all I've got to say. Vou f Imply
have soured on yourself because it isn t
brand new, that's all.
By the way, I observed how your ears
nositivelv stood out from your nead the
other evening when that silly, wishy
washv Mrs. Gitrox was telling you here
that "she had her shoes made to order
and paid $15 for a pair of them. . I had
my eye on you when the Gitrox woman
was pulling that on you. and If you
weren't a picture of envious lntentness
then I don't know I'm alive, tliafa all.
I've been waiting ever since for you
to come forward with a demand that you
be permitted to have your shoes uuid-i
to order, at 13 the throw, just because
Mrs. Gitrox has her footgear done that
way, or says "She does. 'S a mutter of
fact, you know. I think it's a condingert
shame that you haven't been having $!3
shoes made to order right along. You
ought to ' have that kind. You deservo
'em. And if Mrs. Gitrox lias 'em, then
why in the name of leuther and all Its
products can't you have 'em. that's what
I'd like to know.
I was reading the other day. by the
way. that the younger Mrs. Astorgilt re
cently paid $700 for a certain kind of a
rare aigrette for a hat. Struck me at
the time I read this that It was a sham
that you couldn't have r.ine or ten
aigrettes just like that for your hats.
How's that? You never said or even
suggested anvthing of the sort? Oh,
perhaps you didn't In actual words, hut
I'll bet a package of lemon drops that
you were thinking it all right enuiiKli.
Is there any particular reason. Iy the
way. that you should put your price for
a tailored suit at the arbitrary figure f
573? Wouldn't one for about S7I.V) an
swer ot nil?
As a matter of fact. T see in the de
partment store windows all the time some
of the bulllest little women's suits Imagin
able for $:i.87, $:;i.4i. $1S.?1. $tl.i;7 and so
on. liok tine to mo. those window suits
do about 1S00 times as line as these plain,
ornery. Quakerish looking niistits that
you have made at the man tailor's.
Now. why couldn't you go light on me
once in a while and buy one of tliosn
ready-made suits that look so line In the
shop windows? of course, I am fully
aware that it would shame you lo th
verge of the toinh to wear- anything in
the suit linr? that's reads' made. ttill,
you are to reiuemher. if you care to re
member, that I've had to wear quite sev;
cral ready-made suits hi times of nmney
stress since we got into this mat rhnonial
mess, and you never heard luu complain
that the experience was galling or hru
talizir.g. or anything like that, did you?
Why, say. there arn plenty of women
In this town that can and do t.:kc :i $lo
note and go down to the department
stores and rig themselves out from head
to foot suit. hat. shoes, belt, fictitious
hair, veil, gloves, the hull blamed works
for that piece of money, and still have
enough, left for a matinee ticket and .""inn
gumdrops. Of course, they're common
creatures with no pride, you'll be savins,
hut still they do the best they can with
what they've got. and they have a little
consideration anyhow for the men folks
who have to die and delve to supply
them with the money.
I suppose it won't make you feel in
the least cheap when 1 t II you that I
bought a new hat for myself only today
and that I paid just W f"r 1. But. It's a
good enough hat. and $.1 has cume to he
about my figure, for a hat since we wer.-
mar wcil.- since the necessity for rigid
economy came along.
But go get your tailored suit by all
means. Don't let any poor trilling re
marks that I emit deter you from any
thing. Get it.
I can't see that it makes a whole lot
ot difference in your appearance no mat
