The opinion of Superintendent
side people who wish to know what
kind of schools the city of Roswell
has before moving their families
here to make their homes with us.
Prof. Clark says there are no better
schools in the Territory, and he has
visited them all. He further says
thai there are no better schools in
towns the size OF Roswell in any of
the states. There is room in the lat
ter statement, perhaps, for f1attery,
as well as a lack of personal knowl-
edge, but when the Territorial Super
intendent makes a comparison with
other schools of the Territory he
knows exactly what he is talking
about, and is exposed besides to OBJ
lection from other towns in his 1--WE
jurisdiction. He is right in the con-
cIusion hat the people of Roswell
have the proper school spirit. Our
schools are being improved yer
day, and our people will not be sat
isfied until the word superior takes
the place of equal in making compari-
sons with other schools. Education is
the foundation of good government
in territory, state and nation. 1t
be made the test of the qualification
to vote, applied to white and black
alike.

THE STYLE IN MUSLLNS.

Because brilliantly colored trimmings
are used on handsome gauzes and
chinOns. the idea has come down for
use on simple muslins.
One does not have 10 cling to lace and
white ribbon for trimming to be in
good taste Colored ribbons OF all kinds
are used on the plain white muslin
frocks as well as striped ones.
One Of the best designs for an mex
pensiVe white lawn shows a foot trim
ming Of fOur-inch green silk ribbon, run
on a top edge and headed by groups OF
eight tucks each.
The blouse is run with groups Of eight
tcsvFSs leugthwise and between these are
smas frills of narrow green ribbon. The
high Felt Is Of green and white ribbon
fold ad together. and at the side there
are ,Wo loops and long ends. The sleeves
are small, run IN tucks to the elbow
ana finished there with a band Of rib
Don turned up on the sleeve.
This muslin sleeve Is almost straight.
but small and under IL is yet a smaller
sleeve Of plain cotton net, which turns
the elbow AID finishes three inches be-
low It with y small cuff and Tuching
Of lace.
This design is really prettier or a
striped muslin, say green and white,
than Il IS on plain white. It viii also

The Directoire styles in satins and
crepe de cnlneS nave gwen an impetus
to the smart One-pieCe high-waisted
skirt IN plain muslins.
A very good model has a long skirt
edged with a hem and fine tucks on
each side Of a broad band Of white
net, which is covered with a railroad
track design of white soutache braid
1t is tucked in to fit the waist line,
and these tucks flare out into fullness
below the bust and are draped into folds
at the shoulder line. Each fold is en-
phasized with a small braid button.
There is a V-shaped yoke and a stock
Of the hlet net run with the tracking
Of sOutaChe in a very irregular, err
ratio way. This gives a good deal OF
style and is far better than the straiL ht
design. It looks like the dashes given
by an artist in black ink or pencil al
the side of a picture.
The sleeves are entirely OF this net
dashed with the soutache, hanging
straight down the arm without touch%hg 2
It to within a few inches below the el-
bow, and then edged with a band made
up of five straight rows OF soutache
Color Is given to this frOck, and also
the DirectOire sty.e is accentuated by
placing a small lat bow Of colored
satin ribbon at the point OF the V
shaped yoke at tle back. and letting
the long ends hang to the hem.
