DIR. F. r. Martin Of Crowley
who was here last week told US
that Crowley had sixty-miles of
cement side walks which we're all
built by contract on installment
payment, 20 per cent cash and the
balance in one, two, three and four
year payments. The crossings are
also made in cement. The side
walks at the cost of the property
owners and crossings at the ex-
pense of the town. The Doctor
told Us that oven the poorest ne
gro quarters of the town which
were left out of the cement con-
tract, came forward, and demanded
that they be included in the con-
tract aud today even the poor ne
gro sections of Crowley are enjoy
ing the benefit and pleasure of
good cement side walks. This
ought to make Us think a little
when we look at our old rotten and
delapidated wooden side walks.
When we elect a new council can
we not select men with ideas more
business and progressive than we
have been doing in the past? Arc
we going to remain in tho rear?
Can we not even follow the pro-
gressiveness of our neighbors? We
should lead, but under present
condition We would glad if We
could only follow our more pro-
gressive neighbors. We hear al
ready of some combinations in re-
gard to the town election which
will only take place next May, but
we believe our people should op
pose all combinations of the poll
ticiaus and determine to elect on
the next council only businessmen
with a determination of improving
tho town.

the growing habit of candy-eat-

young women at all hours of the

1t should be clear to every in

Immediately before or immedi-
ately after the regular meal, in
terfering with the digestion of
the food that is necessary to
health and the enjoyment of life,
should be especially avoided.
The appetite for sweets should
be satisfied, almost exclusively,
with the sugar fruits, and these
should not be mixed with more
substantial foods. Cane sugar
is we'll known to be injurious,
and glucose, which is largely
used in making candies, is no
better Maple sugar is much
better. The practice of continu-
Gus candy eating is sure to ruin
the digestion in time, even Of
young and vigorous person, and
it is important to control this
habit as that of the excessive
use of tobacco or alcohol.

BY FLORENCE Fairbanks.

Il. The latest importations from Paris
make it clear beyond a doubt that
greater fullness in skirts is the latest
dictum of the rulers of fashion. OF
course, the change is by no means
sudden. There is merely a gradual
transition, but it is noticeable even to
the inexperienced eye. To be sure,
the average frock is straight in line,
but here and there one sees the dou-
BILE skirt, the triple skirt, the skirt
of tiny frills,. and this note of full
ness becomes more ins;stent as the
season advances.
The great fashion designers of Par
is are beginning to bring out models
in which fullness has decided place.
Narrow fiounces are seen on the hens
of frocks fashioned of chiffon and
gauzes. The straight wide hem and
the band of satin finishing skirts has
claimed the attention of fashionable
women for so long time that a
change of this sort Immediately calls
attention to itself.
There will undoubtedly be an effort
on the part of the more progressive
fashion makers to widen the skirts
very perceptibly; but this is not like
ly to be taken up, at least during the
early season. Frills of Valenciennes
and narrow laces will 81 to give new
skirts the desired. fulness Yet even
these are soft enough to hang perfect
ly straight, but give delightful frou-
frou effect without actually widening
to any perceptible degree the general
lines
The coats of very short hip length
seem to have gone entirely out Of
fashion, which will be gratifying to
many women who found those coats
exceedingly unbecoming. The belief
that the new coats would be more
closely fitted seems to have been with
out any foundation, however. There
is a slight curving in OF front and
and there are, of course, certain belt
ed and girdled models which are
loosely held in, but the average coat
keeps its loose, straight lines and it's
shortened waist line in the back, an
effect usually obtained by clever cut
ting and handling of the side sections
and various seams.
That the kimono sleeve has every
intention of surviving the change Of
seasons is evident. Even among the
best of the imported models one finds
it, and the domestic models unhesi-
tatingly confess allegiance to it, but
long sleeves are feature of some Of
the most successful frock and blouse
models, and it seems safe to prOphesy
that the ultra-modish woman of the
winter will choose. long sleeves for
her daytime frock
The frill falling over the hand is a
feature of the newest and most mod
ish lingerie blouses, long sleeved, of
course, and of many other hlouses
and bodices as we'll. This feeling for
the long sleeve is as yet confined
chiefly to imported models, and
among the cheaper costume blouses
and frocks one seldom sees a long
sleeve, but there will probably be a
change later if the foreign influence
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1911-10-02

makes itself clearly felt, and the long
sleeve is once more accepted by the,
Fashionable folk
: Among the handsome materials
employed in the most recent 4modelsi
imported from Paris superb brocadesd
and velvets are conspicuous. A very
large number of the most beautiful
brocades have. gold in combination
with color, the gold being more or,
less in evidence according to the de-
sign. Sometimes one is but conscious
of a cleaning thread hare and there's
or of a general simmer of the back
ground upon which the design is
woven. Sometimes the gold is more
boldly handled. There are wonder
full chiffons and mousselines in color
over whose. surface run graceful de-
signs entirely in gold. These in vivid.
color are stunning under shadowys

but the French designers do not hesi-1l
tate to use even the most gorgeous of
the brocades unveiled and in combi-]
nation with plain monotone material
or lace. + ~

New neckwear, keeping pace with
other revivals, asserts itself in short,
broad, plated frills of'.tlack. white
and gray mousseline de sole. This
frill, exactly like those of long ago,
is divided into; unequal PORTIONS, the
narrower left for the top, by rib
bon twisted through the middle. and
then used to tie it together in front
or at the back, as one prefers. AL
though these frills soon loose their
freshness and beauty, they are be-
coming and add just the amount of
warmth necessary with the prevailing
fashion Of unlined guimpes and stock
collars. They are especially welcome
to the woman who still clings to the
round, collarless neck. Occasionally;
one sees these plated frills tied with
long velvet ribbons that reach below
the waist line. Short-neck boas of
black ostrich feathers are smartly
tied with a beige ribbon rosette
matching in color the parasol or the
feathers on the hat. Rich royal blue
is particularly desirable in this con-
nection.
There is nothing prettier than
hemstitched white marquise+te for
collars and cuffs. For winter gowns
and blouses it is charming, and is
seen on many new models. One can
make a set in an hour or TWO at home.
The cost is insignificant and the ef-
feet charming. For those in mourn
ing white marquisette accessories are
very pretty on bleuses of chiffon or
crepe. or on serge frocks.
The craze for the Tam o'Shanter
hat is at it's height. One example has
a large, full crown of draped black
velvet, mounted over brim or band
of skunk fur, the brim being quite
broad at the left side and at the back,
and vanishing. altogether at the right
side. A full black aigrctte is erected
at the center front, headed with a
cabochon of gold braid from which
gold fringe is suspended.
Eyelet designs in laces are expect
ed to be one of the strongest features
of the coming winter fashions.
