PUSH THE RETAIL TRADE.

Every city in the new state i,
reaching out for great things. fol
big industries, wholesale houses,
factories etc. They are setting the
mark high as they should, but it is
possible in looking to the great
things, that lesser but equally inn
portant matters may be overlooked.
In grasping for the great things
that are in the future, there is
danger Of neglecting the things
that are possible in the present.
Factories and wholesale houses
are desirable and necessary, but at
the present time, Chickasha must
depend for her prosperity largely
upon her retail trade. When her
merchants prosper, the town pros
pers and grows. Are we using
every means for the extension OF
our retail trader
Chickasha should draw the bulk
of the retail trade within a radius
of twenty-five miles. She is now
drawing trade from that district
but within that territory are large
number of towns and trading points
that are dividing the trade with us.
OF course, we should not and do
not expect to monopolize the trade
in this section but we have a right
to get ah that we can by legitimate
means in the way Of offering super
ior inducements to the trade and
placing the advantages Of Chick.
ash before the buying public.
The citizens of Chicka sha have
spent large sums in building roads
and bridges for the benefit of the
farmers who want to trade here
and it has been a heavy drain on
the merchants. but beyond this.
little has been done for the distinct
purpose of promoting the retail
trade. what can be DONE 7" is
IN important question to consider
and one that is not easily answer
ed, but one fruitful phase Of the
proposition is before us now, the
county fair.
A county fair is designed primari-
ly to promote the agricultural de-
velopment of the country and to
foster the trade interests of the
town that gives it. AT its base, is
the recognition Of the fact that the
prosperity of town and county are
mutually dependent. A fair doesn't
necessarily bring big business for a
few days and its SUCCESS is not to
be measured by its effectivness in
bringing about that end. A larger
view must be taken of 1t and its
ultimate effect upon the develop
ment Of the county and In strength
ening the bonds of friendship be-
tween town and country must be
considered. Direct returns must

from among them rose a blue ostrich
plume telling from the right side

gloves, a brown card case and UNI
brella were worn with this costume
Although in the telling it may sound
somewhat crude, If one has in mind
the usual shades of these colors, so
much care. skill and taste has been
expended in the combination of this
costume that there was not one dis
cordant note, and the wearer with
her fair hair and complexion was a
pleasant thing to look upon.
In opposition to embroidery will
be the uses that fur will be put to,
and as paradoxical as it sounds they
will be worn together and often the
effect is most harmonious when
some of the soft brown furs are
placed against the creamy white en-
broideries. This Is seen on some of
the most artistic hats seen in the ex-
hibition rooms of our fashionable
milliners. One of these hats had a
crown of fine Broderie Anglaise-
and by the way all embroideries
must be of the soft fine varieties.
The brim was of velvelt, blue; and
about the crown was a tail of fur
the head lying on the left front on a
bunch of Japanese Iris, the fashion
able flower this winter. Underneath
the left side was another small show
ing of fur, Iris, and velvet held to-
gether with large gold buckle.
The costume worn with this hat was
a blue cloth consisting of a cloth
Empire skirt with fur trimming
down the front panel, while the bo-
lero was of velvet trimmed with fur
tails. over a Broderie Anglaise blouse
lined with yellow silk: Brown gloves
the exact shade of the fur carried
out the beautiful color scheme.
A great vogue is promised for the
Russian pony skin that made so
good an impression last season, and
for the regulation street costume
travelling, ETC., it is very stylish;
but as an accessory to a dressy suit
to be worn at a high function it has
too much the appearance of the

who look too well in the long or
half lengths not too be considered.
There is one thing to be said for the
short coat, 1t is easy to put on, it is
| less cumbersome and leaves the
skirts and limbs free for walking.
In the matter of coats, saw some
very pretty ones last week strapped
| with cloth the same shade as the silk
of which they were made, there
seems to be a great liking for these
coats of silk trimmed with cloth
bands and a few ultra fashionable
women are having suits made con-
| sisting of cloth skirts decorated only
with machine stitching and usually
laid in box-plaits inverted plaits or
tucks while the coat is silk of the
same shade as the skirt and strapped
with the cloth bands and the ma
jority of these are of the long hip
length a few were close fitting but
many others were of the pony styles
slightly modified to suit the figure
of the wearer.

intended for dressy wear. All the
coats seen so fasten in front with |
buttons close to the throat and in

are not popular for wear with the

with such a jacket to wear a tailor
