Strong, who was state (Chairman of the Hoover food campaign in Oregon in 1921 and who is acting In the same capacity for the present (campaign to raise $100,000 in Oregon Tor starving German children, reports good response from all parts of .Oregon. He say a: "It is quite remark able the response which Oregonlans aire making to the appeal for German (children. Even before we. have ap proached anyone for money, the sub scriptions are coming in, both large and small amounts. It does not seem (to make any difference to our people nrhat nationality, race or creed that children belong to, they only have to e convinced that there is starvation, (Imager and sickness, and the sub scriptions come in. i "There Is this interesting phase bout this campaign, that all the ex penses connected with it are being "borne by certain individuals in the pBast and that one hundred cents of vory dollar subscribed throughout the kcountry will go toward the purchase tot food. I "In Germany, the food will be dis tributed by the American Quakers (through the medium of kitchens. We tiave received a copy of a typical menu (Which is being served to these chil dren which represents one hot meal a day and costs 2 cents a meal."

Almost every form of entertainment, day or night, now resolves Itself into a dance, and the debuts and countless other activities of the younger set have brought out the most artistic expres sions of dancing frocks shown In many seasons. Quite early the Parisian designers, foreseeing a gay Jeunesse season, sent over a variety of models, which were quickly absorbed and translated Into many charming versions. The houses from which usually come the best things in youthful dress Vlonnet, Jen ny, Miller, L'anvan, Lenif and Cher ult have established standards, and their latest models are engaging Jeune fllle style, full of airy grace and beau ty. Even the couturieres who repre sent modes of more formality, conspic uously Callot, have worked out delight ful frocks for the dance that will be equally popular with the debutunte and tlie young matron. In this colorful season of beautiful silks and satins, rich brocades and metal laces, inspiration is not lacking, and youth is always an alluring ideal. Fushion has drawn far away from the simple floating draperies of chiffon that characterized the evening gowns for two or three seasons past; these look like the negligees of the present day. Everything lias become more elaborute, In a way, though lines still follow the figure. Individuality is now given the widest expression. Relics of the Bruce A find of an interesting character has been made on the field where the famous battle of Dannockburn was fought in 1814, and where, It Is claimed, Scotland won its independence as a nation. Three sharp-pointed wooden stakes In an excellent state of preservation have been discovered three feet below the surface on a piece of land formerly known as the Mltton Bog. Tills bog Is referred to In the chron icles of the battle, history recording that King Robert the Bruce of Scot land had pits made In the bog and pointed stakes placed in them to stay the progress of the English cavalry, and it is a matter of history or tra dition that this device proved to be very successful. These stakes, which were found standing upright in the soil, are regarded as genuine, and are now being treasured as historical rec ords in the ancient town of Stirling. rinting' and demand their THE HERALD .....-.., - - dm How Silver in India Helped to Win the War Silver fought another good fight in the World war. In 1018 the allied armies were battling desperately. Every available man was on the fight ing line. One of the things the allies needed most was Jute; gunny sacking is another name for Jute. There is only one place In the world to get Jute India. Patiently the British govern ment had taught the natives that sil ver certificates were as good as sliver, but by 1918 the British government, by Jute purchases, had withdrawn nearly all the silver used to back these cer tificates, gays a bulletin of the Nation al Geographic society. Germany learned this and began propaganda in India. A run on Indian banks would have destroyed the confidence of the natives in Britain and thrown India into revolt. Silver must be found somewliere to save India, and possibly to save the allies. Supplies of mined sliver had been exhausted. There was only one big source of silver, the vaults f the United States treasury. Here great piles of silver dollars backed our silver certificates. Britain asked for thnt sliver. The United States sold It glad ly. More than 400,000,000 of silver dollars were melted and sent to India, later to be replaced in the vaults by new purchases through the PIttraan silver act. That's how silver helped win the war. Intuition of Woman 1$ Swifter Than Is Man's Sir Humphrey Rolleston, president of the British Royal College of Sur geons, verifies the observation that in women instinct is highly developed, says a London letter in the New l'ork Evening Post. "Women," declared Sir Humphrey the other day, "have in a more devel oped degree than men the power of rapid perception or intuition, allied to second sight and clairvoyance, or of arriving at a correct solution of a problem per saltum. Apart from its potential use and application in re search, this faculty of arriving imme diately at a correct opinion, without the process of conscious ratiocination, resembles the clinical Instinct born of long years of experience, and Is no doubt a function of the unconscious which is so Invaluable In diagnosis. Hospital sisters often have this power, and when re-enforced by a more ex tensive training, it should be an asset to woman doctors. While the average woman student was superior to the average man, the best woman students were not so able as the best men.

Chanel is making afternoon dresses in a lovely shade of medium blue satin or crepe de chine, and at the same time is lining fur coats to match In the same celestial shade. Callot has a great many evening dresses in blue. Jean Patou also uses blue and Drecoll reports great success in this color. Paris manufacturers of dress acces sories, such as Judith Barbler and Natalie Bourseul, are selling blue funs and corsage ornaments and blue head dresses. Shoemakers are taking many orders for evening slippers in deep blue. Many blue kid slippers and low cut shoes are being worn on the street. The navy blue serge sut is coming back into Its own. Another color favorite is old-fashioned flesh pink. Callot, Vlonnet, Boulanger, Paquln and Drecoll are Type of Embroidery Used by Patou. Entire Dress, Except for a Shallow Yoke and Sleeves, Is Covered With This Needlework. showing lovely new evening dresses In flesh pink velvet and satin. Many of these are embroidered in' brilliants in widely scattered all-over patterns. Callot also embroiders flesh pink In gold. There are many lovely new dresses developed In flesh pink chiffon and sheer lace dyed to match. One has always associated the Idea of pale pink with young girls, but matrons have takes It up now and it is the next favorite to pure white. , Metal cloths are again very popular and many of the most elaborate eve ning dresses are being developed In metal, usually in the hammered pat terns in preference to the ordinary bro cade. The plain or fulgurunte, or brilliant surface metal cloths are also In high favor. The hammered metal cloths are often in patterns taken from the Renaissance, appearing almost like the work of goldsmiths, imitating as they do the effect of repousse and ham mered metals. Gold and silver em broideries on laces and nets are again noted as well as the nil-metal laces. Cloche Hat Holds Popularity. The cloche hat is perennial in Paris. Nothing yet has been found to displace it In popularity. Everybody prophesied that it could not lust and yet it seems more in favor than ever. Women with shingled hair, of which there are a multitude in Paris, find that the cloche hat is the only form that can be be comingly worn. The straight brim hat or the upturned brim is hideous with the shingled head. One wonders if women will ever go back to long hair again. It seems as if every woman were shingled nowadays, the grandmother, mother and daughter, ranging from live years to seventy-live. More conserva tive women, who dare not because of their husband's or some other male's prejudice to crop the hair, are buying shingled wigs. It Is a perfect mad ness in Paris. The cloche hat must survive as long as the Shingled head remains the fashion. Practically every actress in Taris has her hair cut. Almost every role Is played with the shingled head. The lending role in "Carmen," in "Louise" and in all the modern drama Is Inter preted by bobbed-hair nctresses. In fact, the whole idea of feminine beauty seems to have changed. A woman glories now In the shingled head rather than in long hair. Lanvln Is showing, in addition to her many cloches, hats that are frank ly Oriental turbans. Other turbans with curious brims which turn up look almost like Egyptian and Hindo Chlnese ornaments which adorn the sacred temples. Evidently Lanvln has taken her millinery inspiration from this source. Can Dresi Little Mis According to Her Type It is comparatively recent that much attention has been paid to the dif ferent types of childhood. Insipid colors were the only permissible shades not so many years ago and the ma terials considered suitable for youth ful modes could be counted on the fingers of one hand. Today a different state of affairs exists and a visit to any one of the shops devoted entirely to fashions for the very small person will prove that no matter what her type, it Is pos sible to dress any child In a manner as attractive as It is practical. ' Following Orders A young artist was given permis sion by the captuln of a large ship to get on a staging, slung over the side, for the purpose of getting a better view of another vessel which he want ed to paint. It was not long after that the cap tain got into the ship's boat, and shout ed up to the deck, "Let go the paint er!" the painter being a rope by which the boat is made fast to the Bill p. The order not being obeyed prompt ly, he shouted again, "Let go the painter." Instantly a voice replied, "He's gone, sir; brushes, paint and all I" Merely Incidental Doctor Rubetlnker was a qualified M. D., but, settling in a cattle country and finding the demand strong, he had added veterinary work to his other practice. "Nothing serious," announced the doctor, after examining a valuable bull which he had been summoned posthaste to treat. "Give him one of these powders in a quart of bran mash three times a day." The rancher heaved a sigh of relief. "Wait," he said, as the M. D. V. S., was about to leave. "I reckon, as long as you're here, yon might as well have a look at the old woman. She's been ailin' for a month or two." He Marvelled at It As the scientists say, it is not easj to tell what is going to Impress s stranger when he visits other lands. An Abyssinian prince was delightec with our ice cream cones. An Ameri can financier who made a trip to Mon treal was asked what Impressed hire most. He tried to give a faithful an swer to this question, thought it ovei carefully, and then replied: "The fact that Canadian money was accepted without question everywhere I went.'' "Do you know," said the conceited actress, "that I was offered $4,000 a week to remain in New York?" "Indeed !" remarked the candid lis tener. "And was the offer made from Boston?" Boston Transcript.
