A revival of certain style features
that obtained during the Merovingian
dynasty from 400 to 900 A. D. is assured
and these styles will be constantly re.
ferred to as, pronounced Moyen Aazh
and meaning Middle Age. The Nero
vingian dynasty begun with King Nero
! wig hence the name, and concluded with
Dagobert.
At first we find the hair wrapped and
coiled and stacked much as at present.
These wonderful stacks of hair were
ornamented with massive ornaments
fashionable. This style gave way to
simple braids with the hair parted in the
middle. So we may expect a change for
the better in the present method of hair
dressing. In fact the change is already
here as the summer has reduced the
amount OF hair worn and the plain Gen.
ter and front Is used by all the hair
dresser.
During Dagoberts reign dress came
in for much thought. The feature of the
Dagobert styles is the simple bodice.
The upper part of the body was clothed
in a close fitting garment with tight
sleeves and "a free of ornaments until
it reached a very low waist line. Here
it was met by a very full skirt which
hung in great folds and the junction
was marked by a girdle or hand Of some
gaudy material. This produced the
long waist line that will completely
dominate every other style feature this
season.
This pagahert bodice was really a re-
vival Of the Egyptien of Ancient Times
and will be referred to by the fashion
literature as Rgyptiep as we'll as Moyen
Age, Merovingian and Dagobert.
Some of the first costumes shown by
the fashion creators will be decidedly
freaky but the American Tailor knows
just what will appeal to US and has nod
flied these styles to the point of simple
elegance in all tailored garments.
1t is the back of Fountains tailored
suit coat that will so please US all. The
back is wide, very long and curving.

That the sportsmen of Alabama haven't the least bit of superstition in their makeup was shown when they adopted December 13 as the date for holding the annual trials
 If yesterday had been bright. balmy and springAlike instead of mean. with a genuine cloudburst flooding and drenching everything. the attendance at the organization of the Southern Field Trials Club held in the rooms of the Commercial Club. could not have been larger numerically. The rooms were crowded with some of the best known citizens of the State. as well as great number of the representative business and professional men of Mont gomery.
 They were all devoted lovers Of blooded bird dogs. were the enthusi- astic sportsmen gathered there. and if the future life of the Southern Field Trials Club is anything like an index of the grand rally. that the sports men gave the birth of the new organ izatioD, yesterday. the only similar event in the world that will be bigger than this Southern Field Trials Club, will be the United States Field Trial Club at Grand Junction every year.

GOOD TEAM
 AT AUBURN Rain Has Held up Prae-
 tice. FIRST GAME NEXT MONDAY Reynolds Will Again Be Mainstay
 in the Box. For the First Time in the History of the School, There Are Prospects of . Good southpnw Being Developed.

Auburn, March 20-(Special. )-The rainy wether. together with the exam nations. has fnterfered sadly with the practice of the A. F. l. ball tossers.
 The present inc weather Is rather aggravating if anything, because exam inations are on so that there has qeen will not be very we'll prepared for the first games with Columbus and Mercer. Nevertheless, because there is good ly number of last years players on the squad, a creditable showing Is looked for. Outside of late start the team ought to be somewhat stronger than usual. Last year five games were lost out of the twenty played. and this ter record is looked for.
 The losses from last year include McLemore. who caught: Ware, who wards. a pitcher. As Ware and Mc- Lemore were ruled, out. Edwards might be considered the only loss. Mo Lemore's place was well filled by Hall at the end of the season last year. and this season he is catching better than ever. To assist him. Collier. Moran, Stroup and Lamb are hard at work. To there are Tavlor and Mac Smith. ~who pitched some last year. and Thomas, a new. man. Tavlor is steady and re- liable. while Smith and Thomas are Auburn has never had a southpaw. so that one would be very welcome.
 The bulk of the pitching will, of s Gne os the mos Auburn has ever had. and with in- creased weigh<. ought to be better than ever this year. First base will again be looked after by Captain Mo- Coy. He is playing a far better game than last year. as he is in good physi- cal condition for the, first time in two years. He is the best first baseman Auburn has had in some time.
 Red Smith, who played short last year. has been moved to second. He Is more at home there and his big stick Mcclure will very likely look after third. where he did so well last year. He has a powerful whip and heads off many scratch hit.
 now is Allen. new man; He fields well and is a fair hitter. He is young. however. and somewhat slow. Two other players who are showing up well in the infield are Hubbard and Grimes If either one of these should develop so as to play third acceptably, Mcclure would be moved to short. where he Is as much at home as at third.
 In the outfield. Webb and Stewart. of last years team, are fighting for their old places at center and left field re, their hitting ought to improve cousid- erably. To i'll the vacant place in right field there are a number of ambitious tossers. including Smyer: Owen. Me will win out.
 The schedule is the best that Auburn has ever played. It includes Howard, University of Georgia. Georgia Tecn and Cumberland. on the campus; away from home Sewanee, Mercer. University of Georgia and Georgia Tech. will be played.
 A practice game will be played with the Columbus professionals on Mon day. It will give the team much need ed experience for the games with Mer- cer on Friday and Saturday.

 There was some doubt as to whether the old Southern Field Trials Club still held their charter. Judge Gaston. MT.
