URGENT NEED FOR A Mama

1t is thought by some in Germany
that the name "harem skirt" or mor9
horrible still "trouser skirt" is the
only thing that prevents the spread
and general use of this much talked Cd
article of wearing apparel. So These
same people have offered prize for
the best names and have hit up "Amo4
Zon" and cavalier" skirt as a result.
and hope by keeping these more al1urat|
ing titles before the feminine public to
popularize the garment. Not that IL
needs so much to be popularized, they
say. The leading German shops adj
vertise it in bewildering variety, and,
privately claim that orders are pou1
ing in to degree which shows that
like other extreme modes gone bo1
fore, the trousers-er. that is, the
cavalier skirts sure to conquer inh
the end. But II the more timid fotS
lower Of fashion buys one, and keeps
1t hanging in her closet to gaze upon
with awe and admiration, yet is afraid
to wear a "trouser" skirt upon the
street. by all means let us christen ID
with something softer and more femlJ

W0MAN'S FOOT GROWS LARGER
Shoe Manufacturers Say Number
Two Shoe 10 Now Almost
Obsolete.

Shoe manufacturers claim that the
American woman's foot is growing
larger. The number two shoe is al
most obsolete. they say, and sizes
four and five are much commoner
than three. The explanation seems
to be that the phenomenon Is due to
the increased use Of the feminine foot
as means of locomotion. The con-
stantly increasing number Of women
engaged In industry and the growth
in popularity of tennis, golf and walk
Ing have had their inevitable result,
and common sense has done much to
abolish the wearing Of pinching shoes.
The tradition, that small feet are an
excellent thing in women has per.
sisted long and will not die without
struggle. Conservatives need not
fear that women will carry this mat
ter too far: they know when to stop.

Skirt DraperIss,

In the introduction of new TUNE
outlines fashion goes step furthel
and even introduces drapery. Thus
many of the models have a new and
refreshing aspect.
Scarf draperies are particularly no
ticeable. One point of special interest
among the many scarflike draperiei
for skirts is the application of the
scarf in the form Of train. The train
is in reality only scarf suspended al
one side of the robe.
Because Of its narrow width and
great length, provision Is made fol-
carrying the train. Thus, 1t Is care
lessly thrown over one arm, or is held
by a loop through which one Of the
fingers may pass. It is not expected
to trail out behind the skirt, but rath'

WHY lLLlNOlSANS ARE
CALLED SUCKERS.
BY A. w. MACY.

Two or three explanations Of
why tho people Of illinois are
called suckers" have been
given, but probably the most
plausible is the enc In connec-
ton with the lead mines at Ga
lena. In the early settlement Of
the Mississippi valley marvellous
stories were circulated concern.
Ing fortunes made at the mines,
and these attracted to Galena and
Vicinity a great many OF the iii
nois farmers, especially from >he
lower portion Of the state. 1t
was customary for them, after
putting in their spring crops, to
ascend the Mississippi and la
Dor at the mines until fall, and
then return to gather their
crops; thus initiating the fish
called suckers, which ascend the
river In spring to deposit their
spawn, and return In the fall.
Hence such persons were called
"suckers," and the term be.
came general in ito application
to all the citizens Of the state.

the establishing OF extra courts of

the Gary court have been in response
to the popular demand although our
actions conficted without judgement
as to the manner in which the relief
ought TO be had"

these things in Gary while the reorters

gets
In Hammond it is different There
! the Gary lawyers are frank to admit
that they have been prodded by I'M
rea soning public demand. That wa
the sole excuse for their action.
Now that the attempt to locate a
superior court in Gary will probably
fail the saner and more sensible of the
lawyers are ready 10 ask for NUM-
cipal court.

that there is 81 lot of business that

Sixty percent OF Gary's litigation could

The new court would in no way con-
fiict with the city court the justice
courts. 1t would simply be a secondary
court of appeal. Between 1000 and
1000 cases annually could be tried in

whole senseless fight would be ended.
