geranium mousseline. The same shade
OF pannc is draped across the corsaee
from a dull gold buckle in front ami
finished in a large fat rosette bow
behind.
The theater wraps have q curious
cut with a seamless effect resembling
a priests cassock shortened in the
front. They are composed OF rich
silver and gold MORE, and are
trimmed with large fur collars. In
buttons there is a novelty in the long
oxidized metallic olives used to fasteu
velvet and fur coats. All the leading
furriers and dressmakers use this
button.
One feels that at last the fantastic.
extreme models introduced earlier
have sought their own level, and In
the French capital good taste is seen
on the boulevards, in the shops and
in all places OF amusement.

THE LONG, SUFFERING
CUIRASS

nARIs promises TO all America the
downfall of the cuirass. She
sounds it's death-knen in no un-
certain notes, but the evidences are
against an acceptance of her mandate
On this side of the fishpond.
The cuirass will go the way of all
unusual styles. undoubtedly. but we
raise the question. When" Fashions
usually hold on until they have been
carried through two materials, a sum-
mer weight and a winter. Those are
rare failures that have not stood the
test of time sufficiently long to tempt
us into proving them in both weights.
A single style also works its way into
the evening robes and then into day
time garb. provided some adaptations
may make them appropriate for each.
The cuirass has not yet run the
gauntlet of the evening gown. 1t
fought so bitterly for an existence in
midsummer and on the broad highway
that II may have worn itself out with
the Partisan before it reached the

This model, suggesting old armor,
is essentially dignified. but 1t has beer

line. but it has been made common

fabrics, but every known and. alas.

It has suffered an almost ridiculous
popularity.
In the cuirass. the whole middle por-
ton Of the princess gown sprang into
a sudden prominence which alarmed
some OF the most Frenchy OF men dress
makers in Paris to the point Of It's sud
den recall: but here in America IL Is
being held in allegiance. There Is even
now a chance for its continuance: IL
may yet respond TO the kindly treat
ment. and. be assured. it needs the kind
lest that can be accorded II.
The true cuirass outline varies to such
an extent as TO drift into intense ugli-
ness in the finished whole. or to admit
OF rare beauty. in mt this model may
be close or loose. and either way may
prove a dismal failure: in drapery. IL
may be smoothed or wrinkled, and the
skill of the modiste will determine the
result You may have whichever you
will. the right cuirass on the wrong
woman or the wrong cufrass on the

lection? The design lends itself to the
richest Of old-time elegance In ornamen-
tation. while perfection OF fabric
lavished on the long and flowing gown
OF cuirass outline could not be better
employed.
1t is not surprising that the POSSIBLE

PARIS, Oct. 81.
~ RENCHWOMEN over here have
II wavered between long coats so
u much favored by Redfern and
the shorter and newer models dis
played by Drecoll, and. womanlike.
they have decided between the rival
lengths by accepting both. So on the
fashionable promenades one sees
smart walking suits with long red
ingotes. which are generally trimmed
with huge rolling collars Of fur. On
shorter Jackets the collars have de-
parted from the usual round shapes.
and smart square velvet ones much
like small sailor collars are to be
seen. Many other jackets are elabo-
rately braided. Fur again is utilized
for trimming, but on these models 1t
appears in narrow bands about one
inch in width.
Beautiful chiffon blouses are worn
with these suits. The same color as
that of the dress is used for the over
bodice. and a foundation of bright
contrast seems to be the most ia
vored.
Astrakhan and Imitation sealskin
wraps, fastened with one big jet or
jeweled button, will be much worn
later on with little round length vel
vet dresses made to escape the
ground. Chinchilla and blue fox have
again returned to favor.
For children the styles are simply
tinv copies of less ornate models worn
by their smart mammas. Little marquis
and tricorne hats in cloth shapes are
trimmed with a metal rose or bow.
The little coats have simple trimming
of buttons; velvet being particularly
chic when worn over white lingerie
dresses.
Just at present the hat without any
trimming Is popular new thing.
The becomingness OF this model Is In
the line OF it's upturned brim, and. OF
course, only a certain type OF soft
features can wear 1t gracefully. The
upper and the lower surfaces Of this
novelty are Of different materials. 4
band Of silk or velvet is wound around
the crown, and that's all.

Gold fringe adds lovely touch to the
edge. Then over all are large embroid-

Heavy cords and tassels hold this wrap

w not be round. You may depart
from the usual shape to bring out the
good points OF your features and to sub
merge the unattractive lines by coun-
teracting yoke effect.
The round features of the Cupid type

fected. or an irregular opening which
drops in steps from the neck to the

In vertical lines, whether tucks. braid

For the long. oval face the opposite
treatment should be tried. A rounded
yoke with lines Of braiding running
parallel with the edge will do wonders
for the face above. This type of face
looks better above fluffy Pierrot collar
than long jabot.
If women would master the lines OF

The good people of the Methodist

ulated upon the erection Of the
splendid edif1ce which was opened
for the first time on Easter Sunday,
and for which such contributions
were made as to insure the wiping
out of the church debt and the dedi-
cation of the building debt free. 1t
has been no small undertaking to
finance the proposition, and credit is
due to Rev. Magin, the local pastor,
and the members of the church gen.
orally for their enthusiasm, energy
and hard work. The new building
ranks with the neatest church edi-
fees in the state, and the field in
which contributions had to be sought
was small and not Astounding with
wealthy contributors. The showing
that has been made, therefore, is all
the more creditable.

when, as a matter of fact, these

the average expenditure of less than

1t is estimated that 1924 acres
could not be seeded in this particular
territory because of the wet, that TO-

that 87,035 acres, although seeded,
were not worth harvesting, that 1861

in the fall and 171,492 acres al
though representing crop, were too
wet to be harvested.
It is pointed out further that add

cutting, to that which was too wet
to be harvested, there was q total
loss of crop on 253,66O acres, which
