BURR
ENDORSES

William H. Burr, the prominent
New York engineer who examined
the local reservoir plans and ap-
proved them in their entirety, has
addressed communication to
Mayor Pratt in which he states that
revised blue prints received from
Water Commissioner Reuterdahl
vary little from the original plans.
He states that it is not essential
to have the new reservoir on a
level with the Cook Hill standpipe.
and that a slight change in loca-
ton and elevation is advisable to
remove the necessity of an
auxiliary station.
Engineer Burr ends with this
statement: Il have wired Mr.
Reuterdahl my approval of the re-
visions indicated above"

the sort OF effect which the designers
achieve in this. line.
Even more attractive than the cambina-
ton sets are some of the exquisite sets
all In rare fur. We have seen one OF these
whose price was monumental, but tusti-
fled by the beauty OF the furs. Fine Rus
sian sable was the fur-a fact that alone
explains the thousands asked for the set.
A very wide straight stole, soft and
easily draped as velvet. was meant to be
draped softly around the shoulders, fall
ing over the sleeve quite to the elbow
and reaching almost to the floor in front.
1t was lined with self-color brown chiffon
and a little dull gold lace mingled with the
chiffon frills which faced the edges.
An enormous flat pillow muff, lined.
showing a little OF the chiffon and gold
facing in its openings, was untrimmed, and
a hat or turban Of the sable with low,
wide, round crown and soft narrow brim
dropping all around, was untrimmed save
for a white aigrette at the left front. This
hat sat very low, like the sultan's tur-
bans, quite concealing the hair save over
temples and ears and a glimpse OF fringe
or wave above the brows.
A similar set in chinchilla was turned
out by the same maker and lined with soft
amethyst chiffon and dull silver lace.
Costumes trimmed in fur and with neck
fur, muff and hat to match, are the very
height OF the mode, and charming things
are done with the idea. often a separate
neck fur is done away with and there is a
big fur collar on the costume coat. Cuffs
of the fur are added, and a wide band or
several narrow bands on the skirt. A muff
and hat match the costume in fur and
color scheme.
Beautiful breitschwanz redingotes with
collars and cuffs OF ermine or chinchilla
are accompanied by big muffs Of the err
mine or chinchilla and hats or turbans Of
this trimming fur and black velvet.
