One Of the newest things is the gath
cred muff in cloth, velvet, t1lle or nous
seine. These muffs are about the same
size as those used during the winter,
but. with the cordings all around, look
like miniature barrels, rims and all. The
muffs made of light material are the
first indication of the spring. They are
coy, light and tiressy. Those of fur
are apt to be little warm it the day Is
not cold. and these deml-season AFFAIRS
really supply a long-felt want. Made
in the color of the dress, they are eX

The very latest idea in skirts is shown
in gown where the panel extends
from Fl a the shoulder to the hem at both
front and back. Under this panel IN the
front the skirt is divided, somewhat IN
the style of trousers, which gives l,T,
madame more ease when walking, The
effect is just like the ordlnar! ugn inII,-
fling skirt. as the discrepancy is entirely
covered by the broad front panel. This is
usually embroidered in some heavy floss
~. metal so that it cannot fly away and
discIose the true cut of the gown.

One Of the best sleeves, and already
being put into some Of the severe shirt
waists, is plain leg-o'-mutton, with
very little fulness at the top, and with
none below. Although there is plain
shirtwaist cuff, the sleeve is put into it
without gathers, which is ''snappy'' and
corresponds with the long, simple lines
of the accepted models in shirtwaists and
gowns.

Real Flakes Come Down Thick
and Fast.
BUT SOON MELT AWAY
Therefore, It's Wet Under Foot and
Not So Beautiful.
WILL CLEAR UP TOMORROW
At Least That's What Prof. Garriott
Says, and Also There's Cold
Wave Coming.

The first snowstorm of the season WIS.,
tied Washington today. and for several
hours the white flakes fell thick and fast.
1t was not moderate snowfall, but one
of the real old-fashioned Thanksgiving
eve SHOWS that the old folks tell about.
While the snow did not lay on the
ground because of the heat and moisture
that remained from the rainfall of yester-
day, it covered the housetops and trees
with white mantles and gave the city and
surrounding country a decidedly midwin-
ter appearance. Under foot the conditions
became soggy and slippery. and many a
luckless horse fell on the treacherous con-
crete of the roadways.
Up in the forecast division of the United
States weather bureau Prof Garriott the
official prognosticator of meteorological
changes. gaZed out into the snow-hazed
atmosphere at the picture of winter that
was presented. He said the stormy con-
d1tions will clear away by tomorrow and
Washington will have fairly good
Thanksgiving day from weather stand
point. The temperature will remain about
as it is today.
But next week the District in common
with the rest of the country will be In
Tor cold wave that will give the city d
dose of the SWEEPSTAKES.
Awful Cold in Alaska.
Out in Alaska tremendously cold
weather is prevailing Forecaster Gar
riott said. The thermometers there are
registering from so to ~ degrees below
zero. There is an immense mass of cold
air banked up in that frigid country.
For the present it is being held up by
disturbance on the Pacific coast. The
disturbance is scheduled to move across
the continent. This will let down the bar
rier and the mass of cold air in Alaska
producing general cold wave that is
expected to reach this section the first of
next week.
The snowfall today was preceded by
sprinkle of rain which began about
o'clock. Then there was some sleet and
the snow followed at about $50 o'clock.
Earlier Last Year.
November SHOWS are not unusual. No
was visited by snowstorm of consider
able intensity. The fall lay about half
foot deep on the level in the District.
Old citizens who believe in weather
signs and superstitions declare that a
snowfall after November 20 means in
ancient weather lore that a severe winter
will follow and that there will be as many
SHOWS as there are days left in the month
AS the snow of today came on the oath
there will be six other Snowstorms this
winter, according to the prophecy of the
old-timers.
WINCHESTER, Va. November "a
Snow has been falling in northern Vir-
Sinia since early today and the indications
are for a white Thanksgiving. Much
