Fashion Sounds Death kneIl
To Extremes in TIGHT Skirts
By TESS HENRY

So far as the fashions of the present
season have declared themselves.
there can be no question OF their
charm and grace. The excessively
tight skirts have been replaced in the
smart world by modified form, that
while showing pretty figure to great
er advantage, is less cruel than the
extremely tight fashion. Although the
silhouette is still straight, it is softer
in line, more graceful and womanly.
The new materials in softness and
lightness are taking their part in the
fashion of the hour, crepe de meteor
and satin charmeuse are some of the
weaves that adapt themselves admir-
ably for evening wear. The new styles
are taken from the time of gay little
Marie Antoinette, with her panniered
skirt and pointed waist, but with such
modified form that you would consider
them but very distant relation.
The manish skirt is becoming more
feminine, although the narrow outline
is the foundation, it is now relieved
by many different styles of soft drap-
cries. Just think, only a few months
ago, everything was in fashion so long
as it was tight, and this style was
carried to such extremes by a num-
Der of young girls and women, in their
desire to be modern and just little
more daring or risque than their as
sociates, that it brought forth caustic
remarks from strangers, and the hob
BILE and tube skirts were referred to as
the monstrosities of feminine apparel.
Many Pitfalls.
There are great many pitfalls of
fashion. Beware Of choosing too much.
You don't want to look like an ami
mated Christmas tree. But truly the
goddess of fashion is as tickle as the
winds. It's enough to try the patience
of saint, but then saints never did
have to bother about clothes. Just as
soon as we become reconciled to one
style the change comes, and we must
adopt the new ones.
The local department stores are
showing variety of new goods, in
Mackinaw cloth, Bedford cords, and
the sponge weaves in the manish
cloths and beautiful ratine trimmings
and soft silks in the new changeable
taffeta. The coats shown are mostly
in chinchilla in the dark blues and
shades of brown, which are the two
most popular shades this season.
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1912-09-05
New suits.

A number of the new suits have the
Robespierre collars and the directore
revers. Gowns with waist lines both
normal and raised are shown. The
slightly raised line is so universally
favored and becoming that the manu-
facturers are showing it considerable
favor. Serge is the favored material
for early Fall wear. The full length
coats are going to be the leading sell
er in the ready-to-wear departments
this coming season, although there
have been several other styles intro
duced and exploited by the manufac-
turers.
Hip-length coats are classed as
mackinaw coats, and are made OF. the
serviceable mackinaw cloth and sold
by any of the local dealers in dark
blues, reds and in the manish mixed
weaves.
Separate Coats. :
Separate coats for fall are made on
almost straight lines, with tendency
to draw them in around the feet, the
general idea being to give the figure
as slight an effect as possible. Sleeves,
though often widened at the wrist,
are set in at the armholes without
any ful]ness; backs are very slightly
fitted at the waist and the quite often
finished with broad belt at the nor
mai waist line. These belt effects are
one of the features of the new models.
Shoes are Smart. "
The time is past when woman
dresses and then puts on her shoes.
Now the shoe is very important and
harmonious part of the costume. Ex-
tremes in footwear are passing. The
new shoes are smart in style, but they
do not show exaggerations. The Gu
ban heel, one and three-fourths inch
and two inches high is the heel most
in favor. This does not apply to eve
ming slippers which have, as usual,
the Louis heel. The women of today
does not think it extravagant to have
number of pair of shoes, it is econ
omy and besides shoes need rest and
incidently there is something very
restful to ones feet in a change of
shoes. Wearing the right kind of
shoes with the right gown is the prin-
cipal thing. There is large selec-
ton in the evening slipper and per-
haps it is because every woman
knows that black slipper makes her
foot look q couple of sizes smaller

years ago, but the law was repealed.
The major portion of the financial
support is furnished by the municipal
ity and province (our county and
state.) This eliminates local politics
and the tendency to run cheap schools
in the rural districts. They pay high
er wages, and get better qualified
teachers; we pay lower wages and
get lower qualified teachers. They en-
courage consolidation by an additional
grant of over one thousand dollars,
while We attempt to do so by a grant
of not more ,thon one hundred dollars.
81 Pay Better Salaries.
Among other things, the longer
terms and better qualified teachers
give them higher percentage of pu-
pills in the upper grades and enables
these pupils to pass their more diff
cult examinations. Their, inspectors,
who correspond to our county superin-
tendents, are appointed for an indie
finite tenure In these Offices they
have had five changes in eight years,
while We have had over forty in the
same time. They are paid more, too.
The minister Of education, who cor.
responds to our state superintendent
of public instruction. is appointed for
a term OF four years. His salary Is
$500, or $500 more than Is paid our
corresponding official. His qualifica-
tons and work are no greater either.
Thus the element OF politics is reduced
to q minimum, the salaries are COM
with the duties of the
offices, and the schools in the end are
the real beneficiaries. Here the sal
aries are small, and with two elections
every other year, the ablest men and
women seldom enter, and those who
do sometimes tire Of the struggle and
