their last summers costumes.
Sleeves in general are long and tight
fitting, but one also sees a tight fitting
over-sleeve that reaches from shoul-
der to elbow in length, but 1t is cut UP
into a round opening or a square one
on the outside arm. For summer wear
the oversleeve will show long sleeve
of net, mousselfne or lace underneath,
some being in full bishop shape.
Draped princess tunics on the bias
are among the late creations. They
allow the waist-line to be naturally
placed and closely moulded to the figure
with much grace. Fine stripped fab
RIGS are used effectively. They fasten
on one shoulder and on the under seam
of the sleeve attached to the same side.
Panel tunics where long silk fringes
trim the bottom of each panel, are eX-

P. Q. Receipts Prove
Condor Is Growing.

The building activity that is to
come over the Wheat City dur
ing the year 1909 brings up
the question of Condon's growth
during the past year. The resi-
dents can readily bring to mind
the many improvements made,
the new buildings that were
erected, the organizations that
were started, etc., all pointing to
a good substantial and healthy
growth.
But for still further proof that
Condor and vicinity has had q
good increase during the past
year, the reports of Postmaster
Reisacher will give the fact that
the general gross receipts during
every month of the year 1908
were larger than the correspond
ing months of the previous year.
The business of registered mail
during the year 1908 was more
than double that of 1907, while
the money orders sent out of the
Office amounted to $500 more in
1908 than in the previous year.
This all goes to show a health
ier condition in the community
and necessarily an increase in
population.
