MILWAUKEE. Wis. Lucille,
the great Parisian couturiere, is
now designing hose for American
women. Not only is the famous
Lucile creating some of the most
dazzling ball gowns and street
dresses in the world for American
iromen, but now the supreme dress

Hence, loathed monotony! No
shoe is worthy of the name unless
it combines two leathers or two
colors. The spirit of the season
seems to be that of combination,
and that spirit is certainly most
slavishly followed in the realm of
footwear. Peace and quiet and an

they turn for solace to their
lothes, amusing themselves by
eing into what kmall details
they can bring variety.
Let the shoe itself be of be.igp
kid. Then its strap, or heel, o
binding. Imust be of a darker
shade. Such variety of treatment
gives the designers of shoes grea
play for their fancy, and never be
fore have they exercised it to such
advantage. Shoes are- no longer
merely foot coverings, necessary
evils, all made on a mold like
horseshoes. No, they have indiv
uality and personality, and smart
shoes add the finishing touch to :
costume which no other accessory
can supply. This season's are ex
quisitely designed, beautifullv
faslioned. and exceedingly graci
ful. Another reason for the impo.-t
ante of shoes in the world of fash
lop ; the increasing brevity o;
skf'-tr. Naturally enough, wher
only the tip f the shoe was -iis-cernable.
no one paid much atten
tion to them. It is a different
fti.ry when, knee length skirts con

r To be well turned out. modish
stockings and shoes are absolute

The high heel is the only one for
thnce who would be - absolutely
correct. If you are one of those
who can gracefully manipulate
the three inch, slender spike heel
so much the better.. Your evening
slippers and your afternoon foot
wear may choose as high heels a
your fancy dictates, and your
street shoes can wear Cuban . 01
Spanish heels pf practically the
same height. The only difference
between the spike heel and "the
modern Cuban heel is the width or
girth, as in height htey are nearly
equal.
However, there Is one danger In
the very" high heel, and that is Us
ad$?hon . by those whom Nature
was so unkind as to present with
weak ankles. A gentleman, re
marked upon the number of
bound ankles and limping ladle
that one sees nowadays, and could
ot imagine how such an epidem
ic of sprained ankles arose. HI?
ideas on the subject were that that
disability was not contagious! A
word to the wise Is sufficient, and
after one sad experience, most
weak-limbed women will avoid the

Creates Hosiery Shades for America
women's hose, it was an historic
moment for American styles," de
clared Edward Freschl, president
of the company. "This is the first
time that a world celebrity like
Lucile of Paris, in the making of
exquisite pictures from fabrics
that are to adorn and enhance
woman's loveliness, has ever com
pleted the work by creating also
the hosiery shades. Lucile in do
ing this for ua has made it pos
sible for all American women Jo
have the very latest word in hos
and inconvenience.
On the golf course, of course,
low heels are entirely au fait, in
fact they are absolutely essential.
What would not the Greens Com
mittee do to a young lady who
walked over the fairway, leaving
tiny little heelprints here and
there to mar their efforts! But
even in the golf shoe, the femi
nizing influence is felt. The
"brogues" of former years are
still worn, bu .the most popular
golf shoe today is the Peal oxford.
Designed by an Englishman bear
ing that cognomen, his shoes have
been copied all over the world,
and they are among the most com
fortable and smartest shoes used
for sports today. The toe is usu
ally of the rounded, box type,
adorned with perforations. The
heel is a low Cuban, and its leath
er lacings cross the open-cut in
step twice, then tie with a tassel
to top them off.
Lizard Skin Smartest of Reptile
Leathers
Still does the, voice of the snake
charm Eve, and he brings into the
conversation also his close rela
tions, the lizard and the alligator.
In fact, the lizard has played false
towards his sponsor and now out
shines in popularity the other rep
tile leathers.
Be that as it may, there can now
be no question of the fact that
these novel and interesting leath

"Lucile has created for us three

combinations of tints that will
make a perfect finish to any dress

B T 1 COSTUMES
DISTINCT IN TYPE
Two Kinds Being Shown;
Must Be Either Practical
or Decorative,.
Swimming costumes are of the
popular one-piece-wlth skirt-attached
variety, but they are most
distinctly of this season's mode.
They utilize the broad stripes so
often found, often in two or three
shades of one color, sometimes in
vividly contrasting colors. They
further prove their smartness by
using square necks apd V-necks
. . . . quite a new departure from
the familiar curved type.
The rather unbecoming, man
nish type of suit with inside shirt
and separate trunks has been sup
erceded this year, largely because
of its tendency to accentuate the
hips unduly. In its stead we find
'runks attached to a tunic, both of
jersey. The trunks usually ex
tend to the knee, while the tunic
is of hip length. Although de
sighed strictly as swimming suits,
this does not prevent them from
taking on many charming little

Beach wraps for the swimming
suit are not elaborate, being of
turkish toweling or a rough wool
en weave. Matching jersey is also
used, and they all favor the cape.
Cardigan jackets are sometimes
used instead of full length wraps.
Pyjamas are favored for th

beach. One striking pair seen was
of black satin, bordered in reil

was formed of alternating stripes
of the red and black fabrics.

across the upper instep. One just

Salem Student
Speaks on China
(Continued from page 1.)
Chinese, when they come to Am
erica, in not finding Christian
standards universally practiced;
consequently, he said, many con
verted Chinese who return to their
native land embrace one of the
two great Oriental religions, or
become atheists; which led him
to stress the necessity for Ameri
ca living up to Ideal Christian
standards, if wishing to have any
substantial influence upon Orien
tals. China Peace Loving
He depicted China as a peace
loving nation, which, until the re
cent past, has lived in harmony
within hersef. He expressed re
gret at the manner in which opi
um has been, forced upon her, and
how gradual encroachments, hith
erto borne without political re
sentment, have eventually led
Chinese leaders to adopt a more
agressive policy.
He sketched the activities of the
great Chinese leader, Dr. Sun Yat
Sen, in organizing the revoltion
which became successful in 1907,
and overthrowing the powerful
Manchurian dynasty; from which,
however, not all of the reactioary
forces of the old regime were re
moved. Dr. Sun- then went to
southern China and established
military schools, etc.
"And the war in which China
is now engaged." continued Mr.
Tsai, "is Dr. Sun's army the
Cantonese forces against the
northern war lords, the majority
of whom are bandits. The
newspapers say that the southern
army, now advancing upon Shan
hai, are as much bandits as are
the northerns,' but that is not
true." emphasized Mr. Tsai. The
northern war lords, he said; con
trol one-third of China.
He reminded his hearers how,
during the Japanese-Russian war,
the poor of northern China, who
could neither read nor write, were
hired by the Japanese government
to fight the Russians, thereby
achieving Japanese victory; that
thereafter this class of Chinese
were exploited by Japan, who
forced the Chinese government to
recognize a bandit chief, giving
him an official military title.
"Ever since which," Mr. Tsai stat
ed, "Japan has been financing this
bandit faction, until she controls
all interests in tha t portion of
China; which explains why, when
the Cantonese or southern army
raises the cry. 'China for the
Chinese.' the others began to in
terfere." China's George Washington
He mentioned the hostilities of
two years ago, and, upon the
death of Dr. Sun Yat Sen. his
uniqne will to the Chinese people.
For more than forty years Dr.
Sun endeavored, peaceably, to get
other nations to assist in having
Justice rendered, and to help solve
China's problems; failing in which
Dr. Sun's final solution was to
militarize the nation.
"Today. Dr. Sun is worshipped
by more than half of China." de
clared Mr. Tsai. "Instead of bow
ing to any god. (hey bow to t'e
memory and likeness of Dr. Sun.
who is their Ideal and their Inspir
ation, because the Chinese have
been so oppressed !,at they con
sider his method the only way by
which tbey can gain their free
dom:" Mr; Tsai considers China very
open minde,) and tolerant. It has
a voluntary, but not compulsory
educational system, and requiring
missionary schools to register
with the department of education.
A unified educational system,
however, is her desire, as under
the present system, some are edu
cated in the native schools and
others in the missionary institu
tions. The early education of Mr.
Tsai was at the latter, his father
being a minister of the Christian
faith.
Old China Passing
"The old China is fast parsing
away, and a new China is being
born," Mr. Tsai reiterated. Citing
the traditional high sense ot jus
tice of the Chinese, people he
urged interest in her problems, to
the end she might remain peace
loving. "Formerly," he said, "the
most respected people of China
were Vatmers, merchants, artisans
and the professional classes, with
no place for soldiers., but today
soldiers are almost worshipped."
and Young -China wants military
training, in order to be on a par
with other nations, so to be able
to cope with them. If need be.
R. J. Hendricks, who has de
voted much study to Chinese his
tory and conditions, expressed the
opinion that the universal peace
of the world will be set forward'
indefinitely, if China remains
peace loving rather than militar
istic. In response to an Inquiry as to
what America can do to benefit
China. Mr. Tsai stated as his
opinion that this can be done only
be refraining from military inter
ference, that is, that China must
settle her own national problems.
He believes that Americans in
general tre sympathetic' with the
Nationalist cause in China an
opinion, derived, he stated, from
inquiries of many types of Americans.

These figures were contained in
a report of the grain inspection
department filed recently with
Seymour Jones, state market
agent.
There was weighed and inspect
ed out of docks and elavotors for

wheat. The shipments were se

bushels and Africa 37,333.
There was inspected -by the
grain department 680.212 barrels
of flour. 1810 cars of hay, 1667
cars of potatoes. Fees for these
inspections aggregated $14,836.17.
The state grain department was
established in July. 1917, with
headquarters in Portland. As a
result of the growth of the depart
ment four offices have been es
tablished. These are located in
Portland. Astoria. Terminal No. 4.
Multnomah county, and at Pen
dleton. The three former offices handle
all incoming cars of grain at the
terminals and all outgoing rars or
cargoes when requested. The de
partment also inspects and weighs
all hay received at Portland and
Astoria and has charge of the in
spections of potatoes and onions
All cars of grain are inspected on
the railroad "hold" tracks for the
merchants exchange as it is ne
cessary for the grain companies to
determine the kind of grain in
their cars. ,
Most of the wheat from Walla
Walla district is consigned to
Portland Thjs requires that
the Walla Walla grain firms have
a man stationed in Portland to
simple ell the farmers crops when
they are delivered to the ware
house. A portion of thee samples
are sent to the various grain firms
while another sample is sent to
the state grain inspection depart
ment. The grain" departmet issues a
certificate on each sample received
and a copy of the certificate is
sent to each grain firm. As a re
sult of this program the bids of
the various grain companies are
uniform to the extent that the
proposals have .to do with one
sample of grain. The state grain
department inspected 1545 of
these samples during the year
1925.
The Pendleton office was es
tablished for the purpose of giv
ing the farmers in Umatilla coun
ty an opportunity to have their
samples graded in the same man
ner as are the samples from the
Walla Walla district. The office
also inspects cars of grain at
warehouses or at Reith. to enable
the shipper to demand a reinspec
tion at terminals, if he feels ag
grieved at the grade placed on his
car by the Pendleton inspector. It
was said that much Montana
wheat also passes through Port
land for the reason that shippers
prefer to' sell their product at a
point where there is an inspection.
Much of the corn and oats mov
ing frjm Nebraska over the Oregon-Washington
Railroad & Navi
gation company's lines is held at
Reith for inspection, due to. the
fact that much of these products
are consigned from stations in the
east where inspection is not
available.
In addition to the grain and hay
inspections the department is
called upon to weigh other com
modities such as cotton, wool, flax
seed, coal, iron, lard, hides, corpa,
oil, molasses and bran.
The grain department has a
large platform scale with a capa
city of 20 tons. All hay is weigh-
