Sensible Changes In Ladies' Fash
IONS

Although We have had no change
Of fashions within year, says Har-
pers Bazaar, the most casual observer
must perceive difference between the
costumes of last winter and the pres
ent. The "dashing girl Of the PERIOD
styles have passed away, and we have
in their stead more quiet, refined dress
ing, suitable for dignifed women, yet
not too demure for the most youthful.
In lieu of costumes made up Of colors
in contrast, we have now shades Of one
color pervading the suit; the Grecian
bend panier, with its unsigbtly puff,
has given place to a modest tournure
and graceful drapery; towering CHG
mons of false hair are supplanted by
natural braids that disclose the contour
Of the head; plump, healthy looking.
waists are preferred to waspish ones;
instead of skirts ankle short for prom
snading, we have mole graceful ones
Just clearing the ground, while volu
minous trains are discarded for the
more sensible half train; high, curved,
French heels are positively outre, and
.hs jaunty jockey hat with its defiant
,igrette, is gradually receding before
he demure looking gypsy bonnet. The
asst mentioned change we regret some
what, but we congratulate our readers
On the tasteful, sensible, and lady like
'nsensdle that q fashionably dressed wo
nan now presents. There is scarcely
! target left at which critics can aim
heir arrows of malice.

The social and domestic misery
produced in Germany by the war is
very great. A German paper states
that in the province Of Westphalia,
at the beginning of October, there
were Il,Sl7 married women, the wives
and widows of soldiers, together with
22,7l3 children obtaining relief from
the public funds. In Hanover, 1924
women and 26,418 children we're de-
pendent upon the public for support.
In the Rhenish provinces there were
14,3i2 married women and 20,616
fatherless children who were utterly
destitute. Thus in only three Prus.
sian provinces there were last October,
S4,753 women and 7S,770 children in
a condition Of misery and want, and
it is believed that destitution to the
same extent prevails in the other prov
inces of Prussia. The price of provis-
ions is extraordinarily high.
