The Utah State Congress OF Moth

South Temple street residence of Mrs

and are not enrolled In any public
school. Last year there were about 900
children exempted from school attend

says there are about 200 children who

In school. There are always about 1000
children 6 and years old who do not
enter school, parents deeming 1t best
not to enter them too young. Inere arc
about 500 children between tho ages OF
IA and IS who have completed the
eighth grade and do not continue In
school. This leaves approximately 700
children TO be accounted for.
1T is from these numbers that We

The Shirred Sleeves.

In this day of mousqletare sleeves
1t is a problem how to make them
so that they will look shirred and
yet be quite secure. Furthermore,
when they are made of wash net or
other washable fabrics 1t is almost
impossible to launder them If they
are made in the usual way.
One clever woman has found that
the inside seam of the sleeve may be
made like a French seam. through
which a tape may be run. The tape
should be a little longer than the
sleeve is when pulled out to its full
length. The seam for the second
drawstring may be taken Up on the
outer side of the sleeve, ana through
this also a tape may be run. When
the dress is worn the string may be
drawn up to the armhole until the
sleeve is the correct length and then
the cord may be tied up inside. When
1t is time to l.under them the strings
may be united, the sleeves pulled out
to their full length and the work thus
made easy.

THE DIREcToIRE A GoDsENp
Allows for Effective Display on Com
paratively Small Outlay.

To the superficial observed the d.
rectoire gown seems costly, but girls
who seek ways to dress themselves
well for the least possible outlay pro-
nounce the directoire godsend. Take
satin princess slip of apricot or salm-
on pink or delicate shade of blue
and yellow and see what you can do"
said clever girl recently Put over
the lining a blue tulle or chiffon and
the shimmering effect is likened to
moonlight. Add pearls of crystals to
the corsage and the result is a Doucet
gown at broadway price. Black lace,
white lace and cream lace all look
well over the satin. With a few acces
series, the effect is varied for every &C.
casion. No girl can get on without six
evening gowns. Four may be made
with one well fitted lining and with
thought bestowed on the outer por
lions. Two others may be combined
with empire dinner or reception
gowns. With yokes these answer for
the afternoon as well as for the dance
or the play. With every gown the up
to-date girl has her hair ornaments
and her gloves and slippers. These
trifies now count more for the well
got up woman than the mere gown
does. To be harmonious down to the
last thread is our ambition"

An Irldescent Shutter.

A very interesting inside window
screen idea is the iridescent glass
shutter. The glass is mounted and
hinged to the inside of the window
frame. covering about three-quurters
of the lower sash as a more perma-
lar substitute for the popular short
curtain.
Through the daytime the delicate
colors are visible In the Interior, and
when the room is lighted after dusk
there is a beautiful iridescence from

vIoLETS TO BE MoDIsH.
Partisan Millinery Already Indicates
the Trend of Fashion.

The millinery now in process of ere
alton and the models in Paris indicate
that there will be large field of
choice in shapes, sizes, heights and
materials. and that there will be less
excuse than ever for matron or maid,
rich or poor, to go unbecomtngly
hated the coming spring.
In flowers no less than in hats will
numberless varieties be used by smart
milliners. The lovely violet in all
its shades will once more be placed
to the fore and in such various forms
can it be presented that 1t is safe to
predict that 1t will assume its old
time place as a favorite with we'll
dressed women.
From the fat double violet in satin
or velvet to the single tremulous pur-
pie flower nodding on its threadlike
stalk. as 1t grows wild in the fields,
the product of the handiwork of the
French fiowermaker, all sorts will be
seen.
No domestic product equals the fine
French violets; so natural are the
latter that one almost leans to in
hale their fragrance. Always are these
done in the single flowers.
OF course. some of the velvet gar
den violets also come from France.
but the thicker, clumsier flowers are
also made here.
Lilacs in white and their own Law
ender hues, and in yellow as well. will
be used with roses and violets.
Wistaria is again to be much used.
and fine wistaria in natural tones is
one of the most artistic possible trim
mings for large, fiat hats.
Fine wistaria blooms are expensive;
the cheap should never-under any cir
cumstances-be used. They are made
In all colors.
Roses. as usual, will be used galore,
and pansles. too. in wonderful new
tones will be seen.

MEMORIAL CHURCH IN
MEMORY OE DUNBAR

According to report, Dayton
will honor the memory of its fam
Gus Negro poet, Paul Laurence
Dunbar, by erecting a memorial
church to cost 100000. The
movement is fostered by the A. M.
E. connection, one of the most in
fueptial Negro churches of the
country. 1t is thought that Book
er T. Washington and other prom
inent Negroes will aid in making
the memory Of Dunbar more per-
manent in the minds of Negroes
and men generally 1t is fitting
that Dayton, his home city, should
take such step. 1t will mean
much for the upper side of the
race, since it will stand for en-
couragenent and appreciation in
the things that count faster in the
making of people. Dunbar de-
serves the recognition. No poet
that we know of had a greater
right to be called poet. He had
the poets essentials as we read of
them in history, biography and
through their songs. Nature did
we'll for the ebony hued son, nor
did the world fail to take note of
him.
1t will be proud, proud day for
the Negroes of America when.such
an edifice as contemplated reaIs
upward, attesting to high heaven
that such a one grovelled here be-
low, who in thought was as high
and noble as the ambitious spies
may be. The race stands in need
of such incentives, truly honoring
those truly worthy. We have
been given overmuch to the show
aud tinsel of life, rather than the
rich, enduring things. 1t is to be
hoped that honor to the gifted
Dunbar take some tangible form;
if not in great church, then in
some shaft, or something
to punctuate along the miles to the
whereof the great expected.
Dunbar was prominently of his
own race; not much foreign"
blood on which to draw for inspir-
alton or intelligence. He was en-
dowed Alright, saw things through
the eyes of intellect; was careful
in discernment. No earmarks to
distinguish his pages from these
of the best among us with no color
question in it. He excelled at dia-
lect until he touched on the lyric;
then he excelled there. In fact,
his dialect simply masked his
beautiful truths, beautiful ex-
pressions and beautiful discern
ment. Those poems were also
lyrics, lyrics where abounded the
quaint ways and conceits of his
own people. This same rare dis
cernment was able to discover
something interesting and anus
ing amid all the rubbish of folk
lore, backwoods' simplicity, that
proceeds pure gold, His stories
left no stings, even when heard by
the most exacting. Others essay
ing Negro dialect have not been
able to hold the reader of the
sweetest temper all through their
productions. He knew what to
say at all times. Old Uncle Joe
and Aunt Chloe rejoice with the
rest in the refreshing takeoffs on
their peculiarities. Here was
Dunbar's greatest secret of success
aside from his recognized ability.
