" 7OMAN, SAID a philosopher, Is dressed to be
" caught Her skirts and her heels hinder
her and cause her stumble and fall if she
attempts to run. Her wells draperies, and sashes
fly back the breeze into the very hands of her
pursuers and if she does lose her footing it is diff
cult for her to rise quickly owing to her
of dress.
This is a thought in regard to feminine garb:
for the prevailing idea has always been that woman's
dress was designed to catch man who although bet
clothed for speed has for ages fallen into the
But there is no doubt whatever to the psychol-
ogy in dress. There is humor in styles and fab
RIGS just there is good and evil in certain colors
character and meaning in usterful satin, undoubted
sadness in heavy black Grape.
Woman dress, in fact is most eloquent and filled
with meanings, many of which the wearers choosing
colors and styles because they are becoming and
fashionable, do not begin to comprehend. There is
many a false note sounded unconsciously and many
a discord unntentional and strangely disturbing;
while on the other hand the eve and brain
soothed into restful peace by harmoniousy planned
costume in which tint and texture and line

Stage managers have learned this secret and dress

The psychology of dress, it is better under
stood will forbid women to wear anything hard or
ugly such as leather resembling harness. buckles
likewise stiff shirts and collars which are an abomi
nation.
There may be some doubt as to whether women
dressed be caught to catch but there be
doubt that they built to be draped in soft and
beautiful materials. Suffrage may arrive but it can
change the formation of women Gangs Of
tourists from the States going about in their bobby
skirts and riding stocks never understand how
they misunderstood by foreign women, who
cannot fathom businesslike desire for practical
economy in dress rather than beauty and the sex
note.
American who live abroad quickly lose the
dsfguring fashions Well as they look in sailor hats
they find this the chosen headgear of the girls
in London and even the chambermaids will
wash bodices and collars cut like mems shirts.
The color line from head to heel is SO much
graceful and inspiring that it is strange the
alertly intelligent American woman does not cast
out the separate bodice except travelling
venience or at least a before-noon fashion.
When Fate brings really cheap cab system it
will be interesting note how the dress of women
will improve. 1t must be remembered that in Lon
don and Paris in all the foreign capitals
need trail her skirts through the dust for any dis
lance, because franc ana less VIII save
her than that in the freshness and chic of
her appearance.
But the American woman for years has had to
dress with the main idea of how she would look sit
ting down in restaurant theater; for she has to
walk travel in street reach her destination.
From head to waist she has been gauzy and lacy; but
owing to the exigencies of muddy pavements and
crowded cars she bore full length discord-she was
butterfly in rubber boots.
And her boots of late too much in evidence;
for she has become extremist in wearing the ankle
length skirt, which could not be properly
after the luncheon hour at afternoon recep-
TONS Excellent and heathfu the fashion is
for shopping, travel and morning wear, it is
abomination when carried to extremes in a womans
wardrobe.
Dress should be symbolic and individual rather
than "stylish." Present fashions give women OPP
portunity for these virtues in their gowning There
are subtle touches in dress which make some women
always lovely and appealing while others continually
offend.
There is not only the proper choice of material,
color, and line, the right getting into" gown but
there is the wearing of it. Dress is art and when
colleges take it up shall have of beauty
to offset terrible tailor made age.
Chivalry will rise again the call of chffons, and
the He and She Problems that up distress

learn to choose and wear them we'll we can hope for
who ask greater glory than for love of Us to
carry banners to the eternal victory of life.

Physicians also used to rant
against dressing; but time has
proved that the healthiest. hap
piest. and most vital women are
fond of dress and dressing. As
power toward beauty dress is
stronger to-day than ever before
in it's history. Columbia Uni

professors abroad to study the
science of clothes in London and
Paris. previous to her taking a
chair as head of the School of
Household Arts. Scholastic rec

to clothes, long caviled at as
a pursuit of the vain and the
sinful.
Girls now being educated in
things relating to the wardrobe

practically nothing about, will
be able to prove that the lace

thing more than frivolity, being

Num- last night with his bride he
found reception committee of his
friends waiting to give him an en-

and Mrs. Wilson had alighted from
the train they were made prisoners
and were forced to take the places
of honor on wagon picturesquely
decorated with tin cans. pals and
boilers.
Following it came big beet wagon
filled with boys and other noise pro-
ducers. After a parade through the
main streets the couple was taken to
the home which Mr.. Wilson had furn-
shed for his bride. 1t didn't take
more than glance from Mr. Wilson
to realize that the house had been
re-arranged by his kind friends dur
ing his absence. The next thing on
the program OF the reception COM
mittee was to lead the couple to the
amusement hall which Mr.. Wilson
owns. Here they found peace. After
congratulations, punch, ice cream and
cigars were served at Mr. wilson's
expense. The merry making con-
cluded with dancing.

PIERCE TO HAVE NEW
TELEPHONE BUILDING

Pierce, May 2O-Pierce and the
country around it are growing SO
rapidly that the Colorado Telephone
company will spend about $1,000 in
improvements to accommodate new
subscribers and give better service.
John f. Shafer is erecting a $4,000
brick building for the Company's
use. It will be of pressed brick with
plate glass windows. Today con-
strucfion gang from Denver will be
brought from Greeley by Foreman
Basket to begin work. The gang
will take down the company's wires
in town and install cable line.
The cable will save the necessity
of 30 many individual wires. and
will give better service. Storms will
not bother it, Arial wires will be
strung over territory seven and
one-half miles TO the east, two and
one-fourth miles to the south, and
two miles or more to the north.
Later the system will probably be
extended to the south.
After the new wires are up, the
Company will install sixty new tele-
phones. There are only eight in use
in the Pierce district at present.
About twelve of tic s,ew telephones
will be installed in town and thirty
in the country.
The new building will be occupied
by the Company June 1oth.

near il were visible to the naked

shooting down with terrible speed
from the sky 1t was about as big
as a half pound pear. Half way in
its descent we saw it separate into
three or four small balls. 1t left a
trial of light behind it AS it disap-
peared from the atmosphere. 1t fell
to the ground we are sure. After its
fall the sky to the northwest slowly
became illuminated. 1t took on II

Miuiken Not Incorporated

Petition for Incorporation of the
town Of Nilliken was denied in the
eeunty court this morning by Judge
Dyadield. The petition was denied
o. the grounds that the twenty-six
names attached to the petition did
net include q sufficient number of
~ qualified land owners and cleo
oors OF the town OF hilliken.
On the original petition which was
submitted were the names of II. ID.
Rolmes, Dora Holmes and Mrs. e. G.
Num-. These were allowed to with
draw their names at their own re-
quest while Tom Tobin and Del
Robin were denied the right to legal
b sign the petition on the grounds
that they are not land owners.
This fact brought the number be-
lov the required amount necessary
for the Incorporation of the town.
II is intimated that there was a
movement to rush through the IN
corporation of the town. the alleged
oh bject Of which was to make the
town wet.
