faces with whiskers of one
fashion or another. Some wore
the flowing, full beard. Others
those mutton-chop whiskers

were considered mascu

came a tendency to cut down on
the facial mattress. The close

decided to go clean-shaven.
Now and then a sporadic effort
is made to popularise the whisker-growing
fad. Just to see

the governor delivered in Staple,
ton, Staten Island, N. Y., on Nov
ember 2. 1922. He quoted as fol
lows from that speech, by tne
rovernor:
"What is the truth about the
tariff? The. fact Is that it is
cold-blooded "hold-up of the whole
American people In the interests
of the few who were only too wen
represented at Washington."

Of Smith Quoted
Then he quoted-from an arucie
in the Industrial Digest oi tnis
rear which he said gave this state
ment on the attlude of Governor
Smith: "Necessary Items by the
hundreds are unnecessarily taxed
by the tariff clothing, beef, ege-
taoies, cninaware uuu ou.
"Governor Smith now says De is

the senator. "A competitve tar

TERRIFIC GALE HITS
ENGLAND. MUD
LONDON, Oct. 20. (AP) Re
ports received here from all parts
of the British isles testify to tbe
violence of the storm which swept
Great Britain and Ireland last
night and today. The gale reached
a velocity of nearly & hundred
miles an hour in parts of Ireland.
Londoners, kept awake during
the long night, heard a sixty mile
wind, interspersed with sheets of
rain,-rip tiles off their roofs and
wreck their radio aerials. Tel-.
phones and telegraphs were com
pletely crippled.
The experiences of London were
mild, however, compared with
those of the north country and
Ireland. Ireland still was virtual
ly isolated tonight and communi
cations were only beginning to be
established with the northern
counties.
Property damage was particu
larly heavy along the Clyde.
where in addition to the havoc
wrought by a seventy-five mile
wind, large areas were inundated
by heavy rains. All shipping, in
cluding trans-Atlantic had to be
suspanded. The Anconia reached
dock just as the storm was burst
ing. The passengers, including
two hundred returning harvesters.
had to spend an unscheduled night
aboard ship as the heavy seas pre
vented tha tender from approach
