STRAW hat are tabooed today that Is, If you're a man.
From bow on, no matter how cherished the possession of a
Panama or any of lta kin may be, you must place it carefully away,
friends, for another date. Around our Grain eicbange this morn
ing things were fairly pacific. No gay head gears were torn In strips, as
la their yearly fate in Chicago, but It Is of note that a few thoughtless
Straws that entered farorlte' downtown haunts this morning found a way
of hiding themselTes, to be called for snrreptlously at a later date.
"Dob" Rutledge of the Union Pacific headquarters left his home dar
ingly this morning looking his beet In a lovely Panama. Mrs. Rutledga
reminded him that It was September 1, and "Dob's"' answer was, "Not on
your life; we are going to have hot weather yet." "Dad" Weaver was
greeting his friends at 9 a. m. In a good looking straw hat Just as though
It were July 1, and a few strays were found around the newspaper offices.
There might have been a few less here had it been Saturday rather than
Wednesday!
Mr. Robert Burns remembered the day and sallied forth with a brand
new felt Ills straw he claims had bad a couple of rough voyages recently,
otherwise It would have been In evidence this morning. Mr. A. B. Warren
discarded bis straw hat several days ago, unmindful of the date because
of the chilly weather.
Defying conventionalities, Messru. T. M. Orr, A. C. Wakeley, Prank Wal
ters and Sam North donned straws.

HOT LUNCH HELPS
RURAL SCHOOL KIDS
Merita of Plan Explained to Doug
las County Teachers by State
University Representative.
LITTLE GIRLS WASH THE DISHES
Hot lunches are cooked and served
In a number of the rural schools of
Pouglas county now. The policy Is
In the Interest of building; better
bodies to be the temples of better
nlnds. Superintendent Yoder says
the work Is being constantly ex
tended. Mrs. II. J. Gramllch of the State
university, who Is Instructing classes
In the annual Douglas County Teach
ers' Institute in the court house, ha
a full sample set of the utensils re
quired for rsrvlng warm lunches to
the children.
Teachers were to'd of ways and m"a"'
of getting the cash to carry out this
Idea for better nutrition. Pome of the
teachers, she said, have held entertain
ments to which a small admission was
charged and this money was used in
buying thoe things which csn't be
brought from the homes. Others have met
success by asking the pupils to bring a
cent or possibly S cents per day for the
purpose.
"Care must be taken," she said, "not
to have the lunches too heavy. For ex
ample. If you are going to have baked
beans on the warm lunch on a certain
day, tell the children not to bring meat
or egg sandwiches."
h Idresj Io the Work.
Some of the school have warm lunheti
only on certain days of the week. Others
have them every day. In any case sev
eral girls are selected to take charge ol
serving food and washing up the dishes
each time. Boys are made monitors of tht
cooking utensils and put them away in
a box with a hinged door after each
meal. Thus the lunches serve the doubl
purpose of nourishing the bodies and
teaching the children useful accomplish
ments. JDenliens of the county jail though'
they heard angel voices when sh
brought her class of teachers In "dra
matlzatlon" out In the corridor on th
,'oiirth floor and they went through th
dnce evolutions accompanied by a gent
little child song, "Swing, swing around 1
a circle, children; bow to your partners;
bow, bow, how."
Thursday the more experienced teach
ers In the county's srhno's will Join tho
others who have been li re since Monday
and the two biggest days of the Instltuto
will be begun.

HARRY K. THAW FILES
SUIT FOR DIVORCE
PITTSBURGH. Pa.. Sent, t u.w v
Thaw, through his attorneys. Stone
Dions, to is afternoon fiiea a petition In
common pleaa court . asking a divorce
from his . wtfe. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw,
charging mlnoonduct with John sr.
of Ksw Tork.
NewasNaper Man ReewaaaaenaU It.
"R. B, Wentworth of the 8t James,
(Mo.), News, writes: "Two month ago
1 took a severe cold which settled la my
lungs and I had such pains In my lungs
I feared pneumonia. I got a bottle of
Foley's Hooey and Tar and It straight
ened me up Immediately. I can recom
mend It to be a gouuins cough and lung
medicine." Many mothers write this
reliable medicine cured their children of
croup. Itay Fever and asthma sufferers
ssy If gives quick relief. Sold every,
wt.ere Advertisement.
Advices from New Tork are to the
effect that the fall fashions, includ
ing the ankld watch, have arrived
and that they are stunners.
In a short time madam's beet
friend, male or female, will not be
able to recognise her. She will be
garbed In a coat with a huge fur col
lar that will hide her faco up as far
as her nose, and will wear short,
voluminous skirts, reaching but a
few, a very few, Inches below the
knees. She must show the tops of
her boots this season, and they're
making the boots very high.
Rainbow Pigeon Ornament
If madam wants to be in the best
of form she niuBt buy . a rainbow
pigeon and carry it on her wrist.
This will mean that, since It would
be rather awkward to ask the pigeon
to move every time she wants to con
sult the wrist watch she will have to
dispense with this ornament.
Instead, she will wear an ankle
watch. It's a rather perilous pro
cedure, consulting an ankle watch
while walking, so the kind Parisian
dressmakers are sending over some
divided skirts. They're something
Ilka the directolre, only mora so.
The Blit Is about three Inches wide
and starts at the hip. '
Fur Cuffs o-s Knee
Madam will wear pantalettes un
der them, and the trouserettes have
cut little fur cuffs at the knee. This
makes it a bit easier to get the ankle
In the strategic position necessary to
consult the watch, but It Is probable
that a majority of the women will
have to catch hold of a policeman or
a lamp post to see what time it is.
Charles Kursman, an Importer,
Just returned from France, describes
soma novelties in the autumn fash
Ions for women, among them being
high-top boots with a dainty gold
watch resting on the ankle.
The Silhouette Skirt
The silhouette skirt, shortor and
wider than ever, will , prevail, and
the J off re wrap, - which takes its
nam from France's war hero, will
soon be displayed in the shop win
dows. Hosiery is to be the gayest,
the ultra violet rays to predominate.
"The skirts are to be shorter and
very much wider," said Mr. Kurs
man. "They will be worn with
high, fancy boots and varl-colored ,
hosiery. j
"The high hats will be pulled
down forward over the eyes. j
"Before returning I visited the
Jenny collection In Paris and, in
spite of the war, 'it was greater,
grander and better than ever. I
was at the resort Ezalns le Bains,
where the fashions were of the gay- j
est. I have found the war has made J
the styles more sensible and wear-1
able."
The photo here shows Miss Kay
Lanrell, one of the beauties of the
Ziegfleld "Folkes," wearing the new
ahkle watch.

There will be no slackening anywhere in the lively interest this great sale has produced.
Our thousands of customers the first day will advertise the good news broadcast.
It is hardly necessary to talk about the sale of the Pierce stock of shoes, since Its im

as dealers in only the most reliable and highest grade shoes.
What we want to emphasize most is that right now, on the threshhold of fall, you can
buy the shoes you need at
