Tailor-Made Is Elaborate.

The ~long-coated suit is v~ariously ex.

orS that a rich broadcloth is the best
vehicle for their work.
A soft shade of deep rose red, just
what one sees in a "jacqueminot rose,
is employed for this smart design,
and there is just a touch OF velvet
richly embroidered that makes a sug-

A taffeta passementerie Is used to
border the open front all the way
down, and the easy ~fullness of the top
drops into a smartly curved ceinture.
The coat skirts are applied with a
p~rettily shaped hip seam, deep plaits
in the center front and back, making
for a graceful fullness. The sleeve Is
a full gigot model, the shoulder built
out in the form Of a cap, and the full
ness tapering below the elbow drops
into a stiff cuff that rises we'll up
from the wrist.

such cases ii is absolutely impossible
for firemen to render effective aid. In
the illustration is shown a fire escape

constructed that it can be quickly
raised and lowered, and also leveled
or tilted when necessary. A truck
drawn by horses serves as a means
of propulsion, the platform fitting on
the truck. The fitting is accomplished
by shafts under the platform, operated
by a lever connected with gearing at

Last evening one of the pref

messed in Hope occurred at the
home of Mr.. George Mclean,
when his daughter Eta was
united in marriage to Mr.. Arthur
E. Robinson, of Sharon.
Promptly at five o'clock the
wedding party entered the par

march played by Miss Mabel
VanDusen.
The ceremony was impressive
ly performed by Rev. Hitchcock
and after congratulations the
guests were invited to the din
ing room where a dainty supper
was served by the four sisters of
the bride.
The bride was gowned in white
silk down and carried a boquet
of bridal roses.
The many gifts of silver, china
and linen testify to the high es-
TEEN in which the bride is held
by her many friends in this COM
munity where she has spent her
life since childhood.
