SHOW ENDS IN
BLAZE OF GLORY
CONCLUDING EVENTS or HORSE
EXHIBIT EQUAL TO BEST
or SERIES.
ANOTHER LARGE ATTENDANCE
Beautiful Specimens Of Equestrian
Tribe Contend For the Premiums
Before Cheering Crowds.

To say that the annual horse show
ended in a veritable blaze of glory
is to correctly describe the final events
of one of the most successful and en-
joyable shows since this feature of
the fair was inaugurated. There was
no diminition Of interest or atten-
dance, and taken altogether the per-
Torrance last night was in many re
spects the most ereditable of the Sc
ries. The weather conditions were
superb and the arena was in better
condition than it has ever been. There
was no annoying dust and the atmos-
phere had that twinge or -the early |
autumn that gives zest and vigor to
those who enjoy the night air.
Again the boxes were well filled
with the social leaders of the city and
county all wearing the most beautiful
and attractive gowns and the display
of handsome hats was almost equal to
that on Society night. In addition
many DCouAAAuA WHICH AAOLu otANA 4
towns, who are guests here during the
fair, graced and adorned the boxes J
Turing the evening. The social fea- !
.ure is distinctly one OF the most en- {
oyable of the horse show and last I
light there was more than ordinary
-isiting between the box occupants. =
Fair women and handsome beaux wan 1
ering up and down the promenade adj
ed a charm TO the scene that 1t
7ould be difficult to describe.
But to the horse show And that is s
be trouble about trying to describe
horse show. One grows so enthus-
lstic in discoursing upon the beauty
nd the chilvary in the boxes that he
apt to overlook the equestrian tribe, Ell
agnifcent as was that exhibit But &C
hen it comes to rivalry between til
minnie and equestrian beauty of oy
,urse, much as he loves a fine horse, de
e latter has no show with the aver ia
re Maury countian. However, the an
lendid horses were there last night ex
ID they were driven by men and VIC
omen who have completely mastered The
e art of fine horsemanship The ell
iyers displayed skill and grace thf
d ease probably never excelled even ma

While not equal to the first event in
mber of entries or in the class of cor
rses shown, the second event, lady, inc

eiHg mare, deserves special men Of

School day at the fair promises the
largest attendance not only of the
week but an attendance that viii be
close to the best record made by the
fair. The children are all there, and
they are not the only people on the
grounds. In fact it is apparent that
in order to allow the little folks to
enjoy the day it was necessary for
them to come accompanied and chape-
ronedf and protected by their fathers
and mothers and >aunts and uncles
and even their cousins down to the
third and fourth degrees.
Scenes at the grounds today are
more animated and the atmosphere
is more suggestive of the gooa old
days of the circus and the county fair
than during any previous day. The
people from all over the county are
out in numbers. If there's anybody
in Maury county you have not seen
for long time and would like to see
Just go out to the fair today. He is
there. And not only that he's there
by big majority, and so is the wife
and the children. And they are all
having good time, too.
It's jolly, frolicsome. happy, good
natured, fun bent crowd that is seeing
the sights, seeing and being seen.
The presence of thousands of children
to whom everything is more beautiful
and life's prospect as more alluring
than to their older and wiser parents,
lends a charm and fascination to
the scene that is indiscribable, but
If you will Just run out and mix and
jostle and be pushed by that crowd for
: little while you get the fair into the
very marrow of your bones. 1t win
10 you good Life will have a hap
,ier outlook for you and you'll wish
hat you too were boy or a girl. !
From early this morning until noon Z
IL roads in Maury county have led u
0 the. fair grounds. Old and young,
ich and poor white and black, the 4
armer and the laborer the merchant q
nd the mechanic, all have been =
ound for the fair. For more than two a.

ession from the city to the entrance ~

Ways to Alter skirts.

In making garments for girls 1t is
always important to arrange for
lengthening the same.
First-One of the usual methods is
to have series of tucks at the hem.
This is somewhat of a trimming and
later proves convenient by letting out
the tucks, one or more. as is required.
Second-If the dress or skirt is
plain the hem may be let down and a
facing put under.
Third-If number two does not give
sufficient length, then instead of fac
ing when letting out the hem add an
extension hem that will give the
necessary length, being careful to
match the design if there is any in
the material. A row of feather.
stitching may be made over the join
ing or finishing braid may be placed
over it.
Fourth-Several rows of insertion
may be set in near the bottom of the
skirt.
Fifth-For girls a little older, cir
cular or pointed yoke may be put in
at the top Of the skirt.

ARMLETS OF GOLD OR SILVER.
Metal Clrcets to Be a Feature of tho
Winters Fashions.

Armlets will be in vogue this sea
son and they will be an entirely new
fashion. ~ this is not meant the SIM
pie band of black velvet which every
now and then becomes stylish, but the
metal circlet of classic origin worn by
all women OF martha! aspirations in
olden days, from Boadicea to Brun
hide, and which at times in the mod
ern period kas been affected by bellies
Of a.. cc.i1 tries. The new, or, rather,
veviYGa, ar.n,et comes in gold, silver,
platinum and copper. When of the
last-nancd metal, it is lined with vel
vet to protect the flesh: but If made
of any of the first three it is worn next
the skin. 1t is a broad band of the
plain metal Not a single jewel must
be set in. Its cleaning surface must
clasp the arm midway of shoulder and
elbow Of course, only the woman
with a rounded arm can wear 1t. 1t is
out of the question for woman
whose biceps are either lumpy or fiat.
But on a well-rounded arm it is a
thing of beauty, and, carping critics
to the contrary notwithstanding, there
are many women in New York so
equipped.

To Remove Knots.

fla loop forms on the thread when
hemming or overhanding, hold the
thread firmly as it comes from the ma
terial, put the needle into the loop,
the thread on tension. and the
loop will disappear; remove the
needle, pass the thread through the
ongers from the material toward the
needle, and the knot will be removed.
and you have been spared much an
noyance and perhaps breaking your
thread. Always hold the thread firmly
at the material.
