What are you waistmakers going to do
when separate waists go out of fashion,"

expressed tersely the faith of the trade in
the permanence of its product. The shirt

mades. has no place In the wardrobe of the
fashionable woman, and in this Office It
bears the hallmark of the tailor's finish.
perfect stitching and pressing. The sleeves
of the shirtwaist pure and simple show no
variance in style from year to year. Full
ness may accumulate at the top or the bot
tom of other bodice sleeves, but the shirt
sleeve is a shirt sleeve always, as the
tailor-made coat sleeve is a coat sleeve in
season and out; The reason for this is OBJ
vious-the need OF easy adjustment under
the coat sleeve. 1t is true, too, that the
fashionable woman decries any effort at
elaborateness in her tailor-made suit,
which, in her estimation. should never de-
part from severity of line. One of the best
known shirtwaist makers in this city said
the other day that he had not altered the
model OF his shirtwaist sleeve an iota for
five years. The cut of the shirtwaist varies
but little, too, in cut and style from year to
year The back may be cut with yoke or
not, and the fullness of the front NAV go
into the neckband or shoulder-these con-
stitute the scope Of possible changes. With
the present preference for straight un-
broken lines in the outline of the figure, the
shirtwaist of to-day has no yoke and the
fullness of the front is merged into the
front Of the neckband. For the shirtwaist
only shlrtwaistings are permissible and
many women cling to percale with it's sim
pie effects

wardrobe from the schoolgirl to the grand

Two little street boys-a negro and a

yesterday morning in the lobby of the
Park Theater when the doors of that

tinue business at the old stand. These
early morning visitors didn't offer to pur-

Then it flashed across the ticket sellers

tickets was anticipated.

they stuck bravely to their task. They

FOR EAST SIDE PARK.
Purchase of State Land and Deaf and
Dumb Institute Urged.


A petition will be presented to Mayor
Bookwalter to-day by a number Of citizens
who want an east side park. The last Leg
islature passed a law authorizing the sale
Of the grounds Of the Institute for the Ed
ucation Of the Deaf and Dumb and the
twenty acres Of ground north Of Washing
ton street directly opposite the institution.
The last land is unimproved and has often
been urged available park land. The
petitioners say:
I'VE believe that the time is opportune
for the city of Indianapolis to acquire the
ownership Of this land for park purposes,
and further represent that the rapid growth
OF the eastern portion of the city surround
ing these lands, together with the absence
of any adequate parks, renders this espe-
cially desirable and Of special interest to
the welfare of the city.
I'VE, therefore, join in urging that prompt
measures be taken looking to the purchase
of this land, and IL necessary would ask
that provisions be made for the issuance
of city of indianapolis park bonds to make
this purchase possible"
1t is doubtful whether the city will find
itself able to secure money to purchase the
land The bonded debt Is now within $50,
600 Of the constitutional limit, and 1t would
take large sum to purchase the property.
