Goodness knows the girls have few enough places to hide things these days, Tvhat with the slender silhouette and the complete passing on of the bustle. If they can derive any comfort at all out of information tucked under those few threads, they arc mighty welcome to it. By Fontaine Vin and J. Ham Vin Dallman, editor of the Springfield State Rer, yesterday filed the petition of Senator J. Ham Lewis for the Democratic nomination fbr the presidency, in which he displays the firm convictions which have won for him jjood-natured distinction far and wide, as the Admiral of the Ssngamon Fleet.

At this distance, Senator Lewis' chances for success in the presidential venture seem too remote to speculate on the ultimate admiralty which might he conferred upon the doughty Vin, in the event that his choice should win. And which no one gainsay him.

Officers of Pineville Wednesday escorted to the state border line group of writers who had colonized in their city, ostensibly for the purpose of issuing delineations of the causes o) Kentucky's unliappiness.

This ''Informal War" This "informal" -war between China and Japan has its amusing, as well as its serious, side. Thursday was "Empire Day" in Japan, the Fourth of July in that country. And China, right now resisting an invasion by the- Nippons, decorated all her ships in Shanghai in honor, of the occasion. Naval etiquette requires that nations must another nation's holiday, and failure is justifiable only if there is a state of tvjr. Now, became there is not a state of war, the Chinese drcised up their boats in honor of Japan.

But firing has gone on, there lias been a casualty list, (here have" taon violations of this and that right and, to all appearances, there lus been war, with hetiml nations propotcsting, and most recently a truce arranged to permit.civilians to leave the fighting rone. But there is no war. And because there is no the Chinese held their foes bej; pardon, their friends to celebrate a holiday, Probably there is a war, though nobody has declared war. It's a sort of "informal war" they're having over there. Just a nesv one ior book.

A Washington Daybook By HSRBBRT C. PLUMMZR WASHINGTON. A ruther frail, unoftttuswe man, who four years ago created somewhat of sensation in Washington by "speaking his then quietly going into retirement, is back in the limelight today. He is Edward P. CosUgan, newly-elfected senator Colorado, and co-author with "Young Bob" LaFollctte'of the bill to provide federal funds-for the unemployed.

In March of 1928, Costigan quit the tariff commission after a period of service, extending exactly 11 last of the original to that body made by Woodrow WUson.
