The shawl. however. which is

so many unusual colors that it is
dllllcult to choose the most beautir

and the peasant lands of Europe
they come. each with distinctive
motifs and charm.

From Russia comes the newest
type of shawl and one which will
probably have quite a vogue. The
hand painted costume is a distinct
favorite. and the shawl. which is
also painted by hand in colors gay
and beautiful. will undoubtedly
share the same favor. The designs
come in many striking patterns and
are usually shown on an onective
background of white. It is this
type of shawl which Miss Talmadgo
has sponsored. as it is most un-
usual and sets as to such great ad‘

It ought to be stated. however.
that Congress was on the verge. the
very verge in fact. of ordering a
Congressional investigation of the
incident. “Ron” is regarded as al-

through him that all or the war vet-

receiving apparatus and unquestion-
ably his most popular audience each
Sunday evening is composed of the
disabled donshboys who did their
hit in France or who met with en-
during ailments in the war canton-
menis maintained in this country.
The boys in the hospitals were
ready to quit cots and crutches and
go to war again in defense of
“Ron." Each one was planning to
take the matter up with "his” Con-
m. _The soldiers were out-
raged that “Roxy" should be pre-
