cRINoLINE is BIG FAILURE
Idea Is scorned by London Leaders Of
Fashion-Narrow Skirts Form
Keynote for Season.

London.-The attempt by Bond
street modiste to introduce a modified
form OF crinoline skirt among the
fashions for the fall has been fail
ure, The idea has been even more
laughed at than was the model who
ventured out on the West end streets
to test public opinion on such skirt.
Designers of women's modes now ad-
NIT that crinoline or any form OF un-
naturally expanded skirt is dead.
AS a matter of fact. narrow skirts
will form the keynote OF fashions
here for the fall and winter The de-
signers say they are only Just begin
ming to recognize the possibilities of
displaying the beauties of the female
figure by tight dresses, and they now
will depend on the beauty OF form
rather than as hitherto on the cnarm
of artistic drapery
London is also learning at last
something from New York. and much
brighter colors will be worn No one
color will hold predominant sway the
coming season. Royal purple is dis
appearing. and It's place is the marked
feature of women's dress will be
taken by vivid colors.
The leading materials to be used
will be rich velvet, with costly en-
broidery embellishments and fur trim
mings. Fashionable dresses Will be in
every way the most expensive ever
yet devised.
Complete Punishment has been de-
clared against the vogue of black. but
black and white will hold its own, es-
pecially later in the season. Some

ANXIOUS TO LEARN

At the teachers agencies here it is
said that the demand for more and
better teachers is accompanied by In
creases in the cost of tuition. This
is especially true of the private
schools. especially the boarding
schools.
Two or three years ago." said one
teachers agency manager, "a boy
could be sent to a very good boarding
school for 5000 or 5000 year. Now
the average charge at such institu-
tions is $500 or $500.
THE colleges that charge tuition OF
course do not depend upon these fees
for support; nevertheless many of
them have raised their tuition
charges on an average of s25 year.
The private boarding school business
must be profitable. for the number OF
establishments is increasing
This. of course. is good for our
business. for it quickens the demand
for teachers and raises salaries. The
only educational institutions that are
declining are the old-fashioned day
seminaries. The free state schools are
fast driving them out"
The Elbert County tribune., 1911-10-13
Demand for Good Teachers
Greater Than Ever Before.
Reopening of Schools Shows That De-
sire for knowledge Has Kept Bet
ter Tnan Abreast Of Growth
in Population.

New York-"The schools OF the
country are opening this month and
with an increased attendance which
shows that the American thirst for
education has kept ahead of the
growth in population" This was said
by manager of the largest teachers
agency in the country. who from the
nature of his work is in touch with the
educational situation all over the
country. Incidentally he added that
good times were ahead for the mem
bers of the teaching profession.
The last school census showed that
20.00o.000 were enrolled in the various
institutions of the country. While no
figures for the present year are OBJ
tainable, 1t is estimated that common
schools alone have at least 1S.010.000
pupils.
Most of the public schools In the
north and east open soon after Labor
day. The exceptions are some schools
in northern New England. where. ow-
ing to the hard winters and the diff
culties of transportation. sessions are
held only In the spring and autumn.
In the far south the heat delays
school openings. and in some districts
pupils do not return until November
The latest institutions to begin the
years work are some of the southern
mission schools. which depend mainly
upon teachers from the north Ses
sions there are postponed until late in
the fall. SO that the northern teachers
may not be subjected to the unaccus-
toned climate.
Most of the colleges and universities
will have begun work by the first of
October. AS rule the state universi-
ties and normal schools start earlier
than the universities privately en-
dowed and have longer terms.
