Natty Motor Coats
Are High at Neck

The ideal motor coat fastens high
about the neck. affording protection
from dust and wind. This is a point
often overlooked by manufactures. and
Yet who make a line of automobile
coats. Many of the coats are finished
with inside sleeve pufs drawn closely
ABOUT the wrists with elastic bands,
thus sffording protection from dust
Poplin and pongee are two materials
that are especially favored this season
far motor coats. These appear in many
different styles. Cravenetted prunella
and serges make up line OF more pro-
tectiVe garments The oJher extreme IS
found IN coats made OF lightweight
shanfung. Unlined and practically only

mer tours.
Chiffon mohairs are being introduced
with success In motor coat lines, These
appear IN fine, invisible stripes, as well
IS ia plain coioTs. The dust shedding
quality OF mohair is well known and.
therefore. such coats are favorably re-
Ceived.
Linen crash and Tamie linen coats arc
much favored The fact that these
coats are washable and economical
in price makes them strong bidders for
popular trade. Manufacturers have put
oat exceptionally fine lines OF linen
coats at reasonable prices. These are
expected 20 have large sale IN natural
coiors

are a number Of circular cape styles
with and without hoods. these being de-
veloped in linen. mohair, pongee, rub

IRENE novelty Of the season. and are be-

CROCHETED BUTTON
HARD TO LAUNDER

The huge, marble-shaped crocheted
button is something of d problem in
the matter Of its laundering, as well
as it's buttonholes. AS 20 the latter,
they are only the simulated sort, for
the real buttonhole would be of such
huge proportions as TO pull out Of shape
and appear a crooked slit in the goods.
The simulated buttonholes Of a late
French model consisted of two exag-
Grated rows of solid embroidery car
RED two inches beyond each button
They were heavy with padding and
formed in themselves the trimming of
the dress
The large buttons, used only as a dec

made Of buttonhole loops OF coarse
linen thread. These we're slipped
through eyelet holes in the dress and
fastened beneath, until ''Washday,
with metal rings.
This fastening method may be applied

CLOTHES
ARE BECOMING PLAIN

Just when the excess Of elegance has
been reached in materials for women's
clothes we are turned hastily about and
asked to face the coaTsest Of plain sur
faces with commonplace. hOmely names.
It is, however. a relief to be introduced
to these more domestic fabrics.
We are positively glad to be told that
children's coats for seaside and noun
tain wear may be made Of plain red
flannel and that fashionable clothes for
groWn-up women may be built of such
domestic sounding stuffs as oatmeal

CALUMET MAN ON TRIAL.

ID. Il. Sorenson of Calumet charged
with violation of the fish laws by
using an unlicensed boat for CONNER
cial fishing, was taken up in Justice
Brands court today. 1t seems that
Sorenson owned a launch named "The
Regal" which he licensed, but suisse
quently sold. Later he built another
boat and naming it "The Regal" con-
tinued to use his original license. It
is the contention Of Game Warden
Wilson, who arrested him, that the Ii
cense is issued for the boat and not TO
the man, and that Sorenson should
have taken out a new license when he
completed his new boat.
