Dropped Girdles for
 the Summer Frocks
l. + + + + + * + + + + + + + 4 1

Many of the newest summer dress es show the long girdle that fastens toward one side of the figure. This is d natural evolution, for, even if these girdles have gone somewhat out of fashion during the last winter months it is perfectly natural for them to be revived for the summer frocks of soft fabrics. It is we'll enough to talk of long, tight gowns but it is almost impossible to make up cottons' in quite such an exagger- ated way, and for tub frocks no one would contemplate doing such a thing. It is, therefore, we'll that we may attain the same effect by the line of the dropped girdle, and the newest importations show that the style will be becoming. Sometimes these girdles are of net loosely draped around the figure and fastened on the left side. or in the front with a large pin of the art nouveaue style.
 An interesting variation of this ar rangement is, shown on some of the
 ightest frocks, where the thin mater ial is draped around and fastened in the front with clasp pin or through an embroidered ring. This gives the long line of the girdle without inter- eor;,,r with the carve of the liDS and the natural length of the back. This style is particularly effective when the gown is of soft crepe de chine or chiffon cloth, as both of these ma terials are particularly adapted 70 crushing. and either may be run through an embroidered ring.

ness office are many and varied \ few days ago q woman whose moi lit ten had been chased into a tree by TWO strange dogs, telephoned tbe manager for assistance. Two employ eS With q ladder were immediately dispatched to her aid, the dogs were put to rout and the kitten rescued, Another case along the same line was that of man who came home early one afternoon without his latch key and found no one ill his house. He likewise telephoned the manager who immediately sent help in the shape of duplicate key. In fact the first im- pulse of the Garden City residents in the face of any household difficulty rom q smoky fireplace to a colicky infant is to telephone the manager to have it set right. The system is pa ternalist, but convenient.
 Every piece of machinery which takes the place of the ordinary poli- tlcai government in this remarkable town, which has no government at all, is in the hands of the manager. X carriage and automobile service run in connection with the hotel is en- tircly under his conrtol and as a re- saIl1 the charges are far less than would be expected. There is no charge for sprinkling the streets. looking after the trees. or maintain ing any of the attractions of this sub urb. In other words Garden City is perhaps an extreme illustration of the spreading theory that a town or city should be administered simply as a business enterprise and that to run it economically, eliminating politics and red tape. is to give it the same advantage over other localities as that which d well-managed department store would enjoy as compared to one operated under the wastefu] methods employed in handling most municipal undertakings.

 In connection with the removal to the new federal building now in course of completion, I state that more complex systjm of delivery of mail will be inaugurated, which will insure still better service. Four rl- raj routes have been installed from this office, which insures to the busi- ness interest closer daily communi- cation with the rural communities, and applications are on file for two more of such routes, covering en- tirely the county of Jefferson. How ever, action on these additional routes has been deferred until such time as an effort is made by the re- spective farmers living on these routes to improve the roads. l have every assurance from the county judge that his assistance will he given.
 Large package and letter boxes combined have been stationed in the business portion of the city for the convenience of the public, and l ask that same be used for packages. pa pers, etc.
 Forty-one blocks have been added to the free delivery system, and if the city fathers would comply with my many requests of naming streets by having signs made beginning at the court house and placing same at each intersection of street and av enue at the right side of such street and avenue, it would materially as sist this office and the stranger com ing here in finding and locating the way
 l suggest that the honorable city council will sn the very near future take this important matter in hand and the good result obtained by such action would be to immense benefit to the office and city at large.
 According to the last census of people served by free delivery, eX- elusive of box patrons and rural free delivery patrons, was 14,699 people, l which count does not include people served through general delivery.
