JEFFERSON THEATRE
Opening Night q Big Success
Large and Appreciative Aud
fence Present.

The opening of the Jefferson
Theatre Sunday night was big
success. A large and appre-
ciative audience was present and
thoroughly enjoyed the high
class attraction secured for the
occasion. Owing to the very
cold weather many of the parish
residents and those from neigh
boring towns were prevented
from attending, otherwise the
house would have been packed.
A number of Crowley, Opelousas
and New iberia people came
over to witness the performance.
The theatre was in thorough
trim for the occasion and when
lighted up was beautiful. The
tasteful and elegant arrange
ment of the inside gave a fine
effect and showed that Lafayette
has indeed a jewel of a playhouse.
For the pleasure of the first
audience and to add just the
little extra touch to the elegance
and charm of the theatre Mr..
F. E. Davis. of the Moss Phar.
macy donated u sufficient quaint
ity of Janice" to perfume the
entire house..
Promptly at $50 the curtain
was raised and for two hours
those present were treated to q
high class performance, which
heretofore could only be seen at
the New Orleans theatres Hoity
Toity is a sample of the class of
attractions which manager
Girard hopes to provide for the
people of Lafayette and in the
two which will appear here,
Finnigan's Ball tonight. and
Iris next Monday night, he has
been most successful in carrying
out his purpose.
The stage of the Jefferson is
the same size as the Tulane
stage, and with the proper
patronage the citizens of Lafa-
yette may have the pleasure and
opportunity Of seeing the same
class of plays that draw crowded
houses in New Orleans without
the discomfort and expense of
going there.

Tight-fitting waists may be worn,
and these must be carefully boned.

THE G OF A c
Many Kinds Are Employed in Divers
Ways of Trimming and Some
Can Be Made at Home.

This is a wonderful season for lace.
Hardly any kind of lace is out OF fashion
altogether, even Irish lace, which was
temporarily retired, having been re-
stored TO full favor. In robes and sep
arate coats heavy embroidery and lace
are combined with excellent results.
French crochet lace and English eyelet
embroidery were combined in a moder-
ately expensive robe. The skirt was
the waist was a bolero to be made up
over a finer lace or chiffon blouse.
Trimmings of hand embroidery com
bined with real lace are very beautiful
and often very expensive. A clever
woman could make these trimmings her
self, perhaps using bits of boarded lace
and thus bringing down the cost. In this
connection. 1t is suggested that instead
of buying lace and embroidery inser.
lions. it Is often economical to buy the
a%li-over embroidery and cut it in strips.
A little fine scanning or beading on the
edges adds to the effect. The economical
m is likewise recommended to
study the many collar and cuff sets
marked at such extravagant figures, and
to observe that plenty of them are quite
possible to get up al home for half the
money or less. OF course, the woman
who can embroider, and does not con
slider the time wasted, can make almost
any kind of a collar and cuff, but those
VINO cannot may combine embroidery
and lace to good effect. Transparent
yohes and sleeves are also possibilities
for home manufacture. The ones in the
shops Il be carefully studied. and a
pattern perhaps will be necessary. The
rest is a matter of patience.

. DETACHABLE FLOUNcE.
Petticoats Are Now to Be Bought and
Are Made by Home Dressmaker
with Removable Flounces.

A woman invented it to serve a double
purpose without filing up double room
In the small trunk she was taking away
with her. But she found it so satisfac.
tory that even after she had settled
down from her wanderings she went on
making new ones after the pattern she
had contrived. She passed the idea on,
too.
Then the shops took it up, and the
idea was developed until elaborate kinds
have been evolved that have three or
four ruffies of different colors, and some
times different materials, although the
favorite of all, of course, is silk.
The most elaborate OF them is made
with silk webbing for a top, which really
runs the full length of the skirt. and is
finished with a six-inch dust-ruffie OF
taffeta. .
Twelve inches from the edge of the
dust-ruffie is a set of buttons where the
rnffie f~astens on; and the skirt is rein
forced there, both to steady the buttons
and 10 guard against the extra strain
on the cloth.
The ruffies are as full as ruffies can be,
and are tucked and plated and pinked-
everything done to them that will make
them still more full. They are made of
taffeta. one of black. to match the top;
one of blue and the other a gay plaid.
And that top has enough wear in it to
outlast all three fiounces.
'Mohair tops are more satisfactory for
the average woman. for silk webbing
is pretty expensive. and taffeta won't
outwear nor than one ruffle. A mohair
top just about lasts long enough to wear
out the three rufilesG
Ii the top is cut OFF IL inches shorter
than you want your skirt to be when
it is finished, it will do duty for half a
dozen fiounces; but the buttons, which
should be set close together in any case,
must be still closer, so that there are no
ugly gaps.
But whatever you do. don't make the
mistake of having white tlounces to at
tach to black or colored tops, or colored
1ounces t o button on a white top.
They're radically different-white and
skirts-and should be kept dill
ferent.
China silk makes a good petticoat
top, and separate fiounce as well, for a
lingerie fionnce. Both hounces should
be trimmed into a great fun with the
wide, soft lace that comes for just that
purpose, and is delightfully."- inexpensive.
When pongee is used for a top, make

the girl who wants more changes than
she can have skirts, or perhaps can get

WEDNESDAY, MAY "a
An Alarming Situation.

If Perth Amboy had a Board oil
Health that was alive, some of the
disgraceful conditions about the city
would not be tolerated another day,
especially now as the hot weather Is
approaching. The members Of the
board would not have to go out look
ing for these disease breeding places.
They would walk into them with their
eyes shut, at least they stand out SO
bold that no II can help noticin 9
them.
We do not pretend to know of all of
these places, but we know OF enough
TO state definitely that the Health
Board is grossly negligent OF its duty
and that Perth Amboy Is practically
without any protection in this regard.
Just as a sample of the absolute dis.
regard for public health we will refer
to Oak and Prospect streets between
Smith street and New Brunswick
avenue. Along these thoroughfares,
just back of the property line, are
pools of stagnant, green, Shiny vat err
in which refuse of all kinds is seen.
In these dirty pools children play,
tos sing paper boxes out and then
wading after them, breathing in the
foul stencil which come from the
filthy places. Is it any wonder that
the children contract disease? These
same children go to school and thus
aid in spreading contagion.
We merely mention this as one in
cidence where the health board is
negligent. There..are scores Of others
and in a city which had a Board of
Health worthy of the name they
would have been attended to long
before this. Perhaps the local hoard
thinks il should ignore everything
unless directly reported to it. Ii the
members have this oelusion they
should resign quickly and let men be
appointed who will give the city some
thing like proper protection. In Il
city with a population of the size and
character that Perth Amhoy has, the
duties OF a health board are of the
most importance. 1t is u wonder we
have not had u great epidemic of con.
tagion long before this. Tho present
health board is more than a disgrace
to the city; by the negligence of that
body every resident is exposed to the
greatest danger. The matter is be-
yond triairg. Cannot something be
done?
