PREDICTION FOR THE COATS

What will the length OF the coat
be in the autumn and winterP"
The question was asked by an
American who wanted to order he'll

thirty-two inches, for she 10 . tribe
below the average height. In tailored
suits the demand Is for jackets thirty
two or thirty-four inches long, cutaway
in front, ending In = broad curve OF
blunt point in the back.
Some Of the coats, however, are
made very long in the back. almost
reaching to the hem Of the skirt, and
cut away sharply from the waist line
in the front: but these ars too eO
treme to become popular. and in any
case will only be worn by the excep
tional woman who has many suits Il
choose from.
The most favored style Is buttoned
over slightly ON tho left side, and has
the Robespierre collar and revers 60
arranged that they can be opened W
when the weather permits. Some are
made with perfectly straight-cut backs
and others have a slight fullness In al
the belt and a decided flare on the
side seams.
Nearly all have slightly rounded OF
pointed orner and all show the modt
fed cutaway effect, The Robespierre
collar, with vest Of some contrasting
material, Is very popular, and the
sleeves are mostly Of the set-in va
riety, made with a medium large arm.
hole so that they can easily be slipped
on or off.
Velvet-bound buttonholes and large
ornamental buttons trim the best
models.

TWO EXCISE

There are two license matters
which are greatly interesting the
people of this city at the present
time and which should be given Sc
rious consideration. We refer to the
effort to establish a hotel in Madi-
son avenue opposite Proctor's thea
ire and the effort to transfer a Ii
cense from Charles street to Grant
street.
Heretofore, Smith street has, in a
sense, been made a dead line for
saloon licenses. There are one or
two licensed places south of that
th%oroughfare, it is true, but they
have been long established and as
long as they remain law-abiding
there Is no excuse for interfering
with them. But every excise board,
regardless of how they have handled
the affairs in the rest of the city,
have respected the unwritten rule
thai there should be no new licenses
south of Smith street.
The effort to establish a drinking
place in the vicinity of Proctor's
theatre is particularly obnoxious,
not only because the residents of
that vicinity are opposed to the Ii
cense coming there, but because OF
the large lumber of young people at
tracted to that locality by the play
house. 1t is generally understood
that the law regarding licenses pro-
vides that applications shall be
granted only where there is a pub
lie demand. This cannot be said
about a place in Madison avenue.
There are quite a number of saloons
within a short distance of the pro-
posed new hotel and there is no de-
mand whatever that the new license
shall be granted. In fact, there is
much opposition.
There are rumors aloat that on
tractors are exerting every effort to
finish the new building SO that the
license may be granted before the
present excise board goes out OF Of
fee. In fact, 1t is even said that as
surances have already been given
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-09-30

hat the license will be granted. 1t
it to be hoped that this is not true.
The EVENING NEWS has e fit
70 criticise the present excise board
for many Of its acts, but we trust
that during It's closing days we viii
be able to commend it not only for
It's refusal to add to the number
of drinking places in the city, but
for keeping any more drinking places
from coming south of Smith street.
In reference to the proposed
transfer TO Grant street, the people
of that section are bitterly opposed
to the application and the industries
in that vicinity have also petitioned
strongly against it, The matter has
already been turned down by the
excise board, showing that the mem
bers themselves have been con
WINGED that the proposed transfer is
not desirable. We do not see how
they can consistently change their
mind and grant the license after go
ing on record as they have.
The people of Perth Amboy viii
watch closely the action Of the ex-
else board in these two matters and
it is to be hoped that the board will
so out of office with their record
clear, as far as these two licenses
are concerned.
