Concrete pavements are necessity
not a luxury. The few miles that
we're built in this city last year made
that fact evident to everyone the
past winter. Many more miles should
be built this year and no doubt will
be. Nothing adds more to the value
of property at as small an expense as
good walks. Take advantage of the
nice weather and build walk n front
of your premises. This is the best
argument to induce your neighbors to
do likewise.

A BASE BALL MAGNATE
Councilman Holt Organized 8
League at One Time.

Hugh s (Ching) Fullerton, formerly
of this city now on the staff of the
Chicago Tribune, is continually ring
ing the ch anges on his old home and
old friends In recent article on
base ball Councilman Harley Holt is
mentioned as follows:
Possibly the oldest league ever
formed was organized by Harley Holt,
who was quite some ball player. Har-
ley not only played ball but taught
school, ran the sawmill, and knew the
rule book by heart he did not have
much of field to work on, his field
being the south part of Highland
County, Ohio, where one has to huut
several miles before finding a spot
level enough to play ball Besides,
the population was scattered. But
the league was organ zed 1t con.
sisted of Berrysville, population 300 |;
Swamp College, population IL; Nit.
Washington, Belfast, McIntyre's
store and Mt. Carmel. Belfast had
about 400 population and was the star
town, but, as 1t turned out, Mt Wash.
ington drew better, although there
was nothing at Mt. Washington but
the church and graveyard and ball
ground.
Ffftv-tour games were scheduled,
| to be Dlayed after school on Satur
days, &C., and the task was further
complicated because the schedule
maker had to avoid arranging games
either during blackberry season, hay
harvest or threshlng. Swamp College
won the championship, after desper-
ate race, playing off the final game
Thanksgiving Day and nosing Berrys-
Vile out by one game.

Exeunt the Marcel,

After two years of steadily increasing
popularity the marcel wave has met a
rival. The puff bids fair to outdo 1t In
favor, and that with speed and dispatch.
Really few of US will weep over the
"dear departed" when the marcel has
vanished 1t is French, and has the arti-
6ciality that marks every toilette detail
of that country. 1t did not transplant
well. The average American woman is
re-eminently natural. She may be, and,
indeed, very often is little lax as to her
coiffure. This, however, is fault she is
rapidly correcting. Possibly marcel wav-
ing has had something to do with her in
creasing attention tc hair dressing. Ii
so 1t has at least one count in its favor.
But 1t has many black marks to Offset
the one-many heads quite tired from the
continual waving, hair damaged from
careless use of irons, not to speak of the
faco1 it has aged.
For there is no disputing the fact that
the marcel wave does age the average
American woman. Only the freshest of
fresh faces can carry a marcelled coiffure
successfully. The French woman's face is
always fresh. Worry and anxiety are
the enemy to beauty, and, therefore, stu
diously avoided by the Frenchwoman.
Everything that luxury and art can con-
tribute toward preserving her freshness
ia studiously followed. Small wonder her
face is unlined. her complexion smooth.
her eyes bright. Here in our country the
strenuous life which even the wealthy
pursue is not conducive to the perpetual
tion of feminine freshness. And nothing
10 emphasizes any sign of age as appar-
ent arti1ciality. The marcelled coiffure
invariably ages the American woman who
is past thirtyhVe.
But since itn vogue is waning, let us
"off with the old love and on with the
new"--the put. Here is form of dress
ing that can injure naught save the

pocketbook, and that only temporarily,
since 1t only involves an initial invest
ment. Women of abundant locks of that
peculiar lively texture that "stays put"
may assay the pufred coiffure with no ad-
dition to their chevelure But these
blessed among women are the few rather
than the many However, there are bless
1ngs In puffs for the scanty locked. In
the first place, they are SO frankly and
candidly false that even the old-fash-
ioned among US who dislike the idea of
our herstuit shortcomings being known
TO our friends and the world at large
even we poor modest souls may unblush-
ingly don the candid puff
They are sold in strings, so much per
puff, six or eight being sufficient for most
purposes For quite dressy coiffures the
strings are arranged with a double row
in the back, ten in all. The natural hair
is drsseed In any becoming fashion about
the face, and the back hair brought high
and arranged In lengthwise loops or
puffs. The end of the string Of puffs is
slipped under the natural hair near the
right front and pinned securely. The
string is then arranged easily in place
about the coil or puffs of natural hair
and the remaining end pinned firmly in
place. Then take each individual puff,
arranging according to the most becom-
ing outline for the head, and pin in place
with long invisible pins; note that the
very short ones are unsatisfactory, and
those fully three inches in length should
be used. Be careful to keep the dressing
soft and fluffy looking.
Another form of puffs is a row of four,
very thick and wide. that are dressed Sin

when quite in shape pinned entire on the
hack of the head, as a compliment to the
natural hair which has previously been
arranged in preparation for this sub
Rtantial addition. This style of puff is
very satisfactory with the prevailing mill

the difficulty is to sew five medium size

Some women use the hooks and eyes on

crossed American flags embroidered with
silk In the national colors on the under
brtm. These are smartest when worn
with sailor or Russian blouse suits.
The very newest silks are in an ex-
auisite shade known as "Queens Gray"
The patterns of these silken weaves are
quiet and unobtrusive, tiny polka dots
on pekin striped backgrounds of black

stripes and small checks and figures, as
they are intended more especially for

linery modes. Indeed, some girls ar
range their hair so as to slap on a row
OF puffs when they adjust their hat, wear
ing only their own locks for indoor toi-
lettes.
Some sort of artificial hair seems de-
manded by the new hats, which are so
huge, and which have so many hooks and
corners to fill in one finds when she tries
one of them on. The French women are
putting their hair out and building it
out more and more about the sides OF the
face. One even notices an occasional
Parisienne with puffs that look like min
iature barrels in hair, at either side Of
her face, these actually hollow, and
plainly tc be seen through. 1t really
makes one wonder If we are approaching
n revival Of those modes of the eighteenth
century, when the hairdressing was
most wonderful construction, sometimes
representing u frigate In full sale, and
others a basket of flowers, ETC. Those
were days when the hairdresser flour
ished and was, indeed, a mighty man.
Though the allover marcel wave is at
ebb tide, there is still loose wave done
with very moderately hot irons, that
gives just suggestion OF soft futiiness
to the hair and i9 much liked. This Is
really never successfully attained by
ones self, since 1t is impossible to get
the irons In at Just the right angle to
produce the wave properly all round the
head. 1t is best to go to a good hair
dresser for this, or omit it altogether.
In most qualities of hair this light wave
will last a week, so it is really not so
expensive-the halrdresser charging only
about half as much as for the full mar

Her Party Frock.

The party frock is, of course. the most
important dress In the small girls ward
robe, and upon this is lavished all the
expense and fine needlework in which
1t is possible for the mother to indulge.
The material should be of the finest
lawn, dimity or batiste, and the laces
or embroideries of equal quality. Rather
should the dress carry less trimming
and be Of the best than to be overloaded
with that of second quality The more
trimmings used the simpler the mode Of
development, is the rule which mothers
OF discriminating taste follow. Little
full blouses are inset in yoke form with
Insertions the neck finished square or
round. with a little tiny frill. The
sleeves are small puffs, inset and frilled
to match the blouse, and skirts are very
full and prettiest when finished with a
frill of the material inset with the lace.
Sashes of soft white or delicately colored
ribbons are tied loosely around the waist
and bowed In tho back or finished In a
rosette at the left side In front. this
treatment matched by another rosette Of
ribbon on the left shoulder.

Lingerie Hat for Dressy Wear

Although hats of fine braids and straws

five to twelve years, the lingerie hat of

so that the covering may be removed
from the wire frame with little difficulty

often flowers. These in wreaths of small

Some Points About the
Lingerie Frock : Best
Everyday Models
Millinery and Smart
Brown Footwear.

The frocking and bonneting of small
maids has long since ceased to be prob
lem to fond mothers. Fashions dictums
in general are now such that IL followed
ones little folks cannot fail of being
daintily and appropriately dressed at all
times. Like her mother's her clothes are
made with Il definite idea as to when and
where they are to be worn, and the ma
terials and trimmings are likewise Sc
lected with these points in view. The day
when little miladl was dressed to look
pretty and sweet, regardless of the oc-
casion, has passed, and she now makes
her mud pies and digs sand on the beach
with the firm assurance that mother will
not scold or punish If her frock becomes
soiled, for when she plays she wears her
play frock, and mother doesn't care how
much 1t is soiled OF mussed.
Every mother would like to keep her
darlings in white at all times, but 1t is
an extravaganza which but few mothers
can afford White Is not practical for
playtimc hours, so. instead, the smartest
little play and morning dresses are those
made of clean-looking, neatly checked or
striped ginghams, linens or gelateas,
these latter being much in favor this
summer for both boys and girls dresses.
All the old staple patterns in ginghams
are freely chosen, despite the fact that
there are many new things advanced.
This, however, is probably due to the
fact that these are of finer quality and.
higher price than the average mother
deems 1t advisable to purchase for her
small girls morning dresses. But, on the
little afternoon frocks, which are so at
tractive when trimmed with fine white
embroideries and accompanied by dainty
white guimpes. The gingham dress is
mayhap one of those novel blue and
green plaids barred with white, needs but
the addition of wide embroidery or lace
berthe to make 1t the most attractive
frock of the season for semi dressy wear.
Galatea dresses are essentially for play
time hours, anG should, therefore, be
made very plain and simple, in Russian
blouse or jumper style. OF the two, the
jumper Is perhaps the better, being in
some ways more practical than the Rus
sian dress. When the heat of midsummer
becomes oppressive and small folks fret
and grow peevish the guimpe may be
dispensed with and the little arms and
neck barred to any chance cooling breeze.
Jumper dresses with loose pleated body
belted in at the waistllDe like the Rus
sian blouse are becoming and comfort
sble and exceedingly easy to launder, an
item to be appreciated when one consid-
ers the numbers of dresses one small girl
can soil in q single week.
The lingerie dress still holds first place
as the best frock in little miladi's ward
robe. Fashion sets no hard and fast
rules to be followed In dresses Of this
