Ign, taking heed Of His Masters Voice, the humble McCooey has done
likewise, and Messrs. Fry and Terry will not adorn the halls Of legs-
lation again. Both of these men and their New York colleagues are
persons Of character and independence, who acted on their own opln-
ions. This is what the public is always clamorng for. Yet there is
not the slightest evidence OF any effort on the part of the voters in
either borough to ascertain if the delegates who were chosen at the
primaries were truly representative Of their desires. Until the peo-
pie resolve to take some interest in men who ire brave enough to act

Basket Weaves Much Worn-Ths latest
Jabot


Jahot.
NEW YORK, Fen. 24.--Dark cheviot
serges with hairline of lighter shade
are extremely smart in the new spring
coat and skirt costumes for the first
warmer days. Black and dark blue
with hairlines OF white anywhere from
a quarter Of an inch to a full inch apart
are also much In evidence among the
materials, while striped serges the
stripe q part Of the weave and not
another color are also decidedly fash
ionable. IL 1t is desired to have the
costume possess some real warmth.
then the cheviots and the heavier
Scotch mixtures should be chosen, put
IL the spring suit is to be worn for
travelling, etc. through the summer,
then these striped serges are most ad-
visabie. There are serges now on the
market which possess little less warmth
or weight than heavy silk. and often
one of these tine grades OF serge will
be as comfortable to wear on the hot
test days as pongee o. rajah.
DIAGONAL weaves have about run
their course, and save In the plain
serges and whipcord cloth (Which. by
the way, is much in fashion at the
moment for walking and travelling cos-
tumes) conspicuous diagonal weaves
are not so popular as the basket weav-
is the feature of this springs fashions.
but this weave nevertheless Ia not ad-
vfsable unless Of fairly heavy quality.
for IL woven loosely the dress when
made up will be sure to pull and tear
In a most unplea SAINT manner.
The Use OF Whipcord.
In gray. tan and black. whipcord
makes an excellent suit for ordinary
wear. This cloth should never be trim.

a utility fabric, and any elaboration up
on IL is incongruous. Just narrow line
OF white given By the piQue or heavy
linen collar protector that is fastened TO
the inside of tho coat collar is all that
is allowable to relieve this most busi-
nessiike looking costume.
If q mixed material Is desired, coarse
Scotch tweeds are especially smart this
year, and in the light shades of tan
and the mixed gray tones are already
made up In large quantity. These
tweeds also must not be eiaporatelS
trimmed and. in fact, the simpler the
model selected to copy the smarter Will
the costume be. Velvet collar and cuffs
soften the rather hard effect OF the
tweed.
Iroadcloth for Afternoon Frocks.
l. Broadcloth is only to be seen In
elaborate costumes for afternoon In
the light shades of heliotrope ana

the coat and skirt costumes, cut short
however, will rival even the very fash
ionable wool back satin for dress wear.
/ This style OF costume Is always a
three piece affair. with an attractive
little bodice comprised principally of
chiffon or marQuisette since cloth
waist would be impractical for the
season. Many three piece costumes
ostensibly built OF cloth are formed

Ii may be either part OF the waist

There was charming little sailor
collar of white broadcloth with black
satin facing extending to within an
inch OF the edge. The white cloth

lar at the top-were outlined with "a
band of the black satin. Instead of
cuffs there was band of the white
cloth to trim the sleeve ends and q
still narrower band of the satin was
placed along the center OF this band.

tractive seni-princess frock for at
ternoon or street wear. II was de-
veioped from 'nIauve broadclorh with
a trimming Of navy velvet. This cos
tune was noticeable FOR Its good lines
and simplicity. The overlapping CEN
ter-front panel was very effectively
trimmed with two rows OF small vel
vet-covered buttons and IL was also
outlined with velvet piping. The raised
waistline effect was very attractively
shown in this costume, and the band
at the lower edge of the skirt added
an original touch in It's shaping.
