FASHIONS AND FADS

Some of the most charming of the
low-cut net guimpes have fronts
slightly frilled.
In the smart tearooms in Paris
one sees women wearing their hair
in a series of knots
Luxurious small handbags for au-
tumn are often of silk and are gold or
silver mounted.
It is characteristic Of many OF
the new collars to be long in the back
and short in front.
The new Medici collars are strong
rivals of the Robespierre, but not so
universally becoming.
The Robespierre fashion promises
to be the rage in both blouses and
one piece dresses. 81
Black velvet pumps with colonial
buckles, worn with black silk stock
snEs. are very popular.
Some of the new purses are made
~ reindeer skin, lined with moire,
They come in vivid colors.
The newest wells are escurial eff
fects with magpie colorings. These
are astonishingly becoming.
The new English raincoats for
girls have porous "sweatband" in
side across the shoulders.
Afternoon and evening dresses are
much longer than hitherto and have
that much added grace.
Many of the new gowns have their
skirts caught at the foot by buttons
and ornamented straps.
The fad for making one side of the
bodice different from the other is as
much as ever In evidence
Peau de suede and the softness of
silk, is a favorite this season.
Long wraps of velvet cloth or satin
are much favored for autumn wear
before putting on fur coats.
1t is said that some of the soft
warm cloths will be faced with white
kid, even the buttons being kid COW
cred.

A GRACEFUL 0v~N
GIVING SLENDER LINES

A GRACEFUL 1V-N
GIVING SLENDER LINES
Lines that give a slender effect and,
consequently, a suggestion or height
are the ones sure to be in demand.
This gown is really ideal for the
panels meet in way to give a con-
tinuous line and altogether is especi-
ally TO be commended whenever slen-
derness is sought In the illustra-
tion, It is made of charmeuse satin
combined with moire velours and lace
and the result is a very handsome
gown; but the same design can be
utilized for any seasonable material,
for simple wool fabrics and all fash
ionable silks Voile is one stand
by for simple gowns and voile with
panels of silk or satin would be very
pretty. Striped silk for these last
would Intensity the slender lines and
brochef or Powered silk would be
most attractive. Long sleeves are
fashionable this autumn and they
also tend to emphasize the effect
sougt but they are not obligatory, for
fashion allows those Of shorter length
and these can be cut off and finished
with cuffs. They are of the one
piece sort stitched TO the armholes,
and the blouse and skirt are finished
separately The closing Of the blouse
Is made at the left side beneath the
revers The skirt is cut in six cores
and the front cores are Tapped onto
a panel so that the closing is easily
made invisibly. The back gives the
effect of a double panel and the skirt
can be finished at the high line, either
with or without a point at the back,
or at the natural line with a belt.
For the medium size, the waist will
require rs yards Of material p,

FRUIT TREES
Will REMAIN
THIS SEASON
LARGE ORCHARD IS SPARED
Owner Believes An Excellent
Fruit Season is Ahead

So favorable is the prospect at this
time of fine peach crop this year
as assured by the continued cold
weather which holds the trees in
check, that Mr.. ]. d. White, owner
of the great Bagley-Ray orchard near
Americas has fully determined not
to cut down the thousands of trees, as
first proposed This orchard is one
of the largest and finest in the world,
and the expressed purpose of Mr..
Whittle some time ago to cut down
the trees and plant cotton instead was
regretted
The big orchard will remain one
year longer, at least, as the result of
low priced cotton and the better pros
pect of a good yield of fruit this
year Mr.. n. A Ray, one of the for
mer owners of the big orchard, will
superintend the farming interests on
the plantation this year, states that
the prospect for an abundant crop
of peaches this year is indeed ex-
cellent, and if seasons continue pro-
pitious a record yield is anticipated.
Not only has the continued cold
weather held back the buds, prevent
ing premature sprouting, but has de-
stroyed myriads of insects that usual
ly infest the orchards, Recently the
trees in the orchard have been gone
over very carefully and all old or dis
eased ones dug UP and buried. Only
the best stock remains, live vigorous
trees that insure a good yield Mr..
C. S. Verdery, so long with the Bag
ley-Ray Co., will continue in charge
of the orchard Other fruit growers
in the Americas territory make SINH
lar flattering reports, and if the
weather is favorable during the next
two months big peach crop is as
sured.

Embroidery Flouncing Useful on Fu-
ture Occasions Should Not
Be Overlooked.

Now's the time to pick up remnants
of embroidery f1ouncing that can be
used for various things. The embroi-
derry ruffle on the underskirt is al
ways attractive In either blind or
eyelet work it looks well and outlasts
lace.
Fine batiste can be combined with
lace and the body of the goods
matched and tucked bands incorpo-
rated with the embroidery to form
exquisite blouses.
Lingerie mats for young girls, for
little tots and for older women are
easily fashioned of short lengths of
fine embroidered flouncing. Edge the
scallops with lace or face the entire
pGim with Tuffles of net Although we
are thinking of the last rose of sum-
mer, there will be many occasions
Jhat will demand pretty dressy hat,
especially in the evenings.
Yokes can be made of fiouncing, the
remainder of a bodice made of tucked
material. This same idea can be re-
versed and plain tucked yokes COM
bined with embroidered lower por-
tons.
For finishing combinations narrow
fiouncing of fine lawn or batiste is not
to be improved upon. Corset covers
also can be made entirely of flounc-
ing with straps of embroidery or lace.
AS for edging bureau scarfs, making
pincushions, etc, the opportunities
an should be not hampered by pau
city of ideas the use of odd pieces.

fine LIBRARY WORK
In Charge Of CharlattG'S Large
Library

Miss Mary B. Palmer, the first libra
rian at the Carnegie Library here, so
we'll and pleasantly remembered by
Americas folks, is meeting with rich
" deserved success in her post as
chief librarian of the large Carnegie
Library at Charlotte, N. C.
A recent issue of the Charlotte OBJ
server contains an exhaustive report
nv Miss Palmer on the workings OF
the library there. The Importance OF
the library can be judged from the
facts tlat more than thirty-tive thous-
and loans of books were made by the
Charlotte Carnegie library during the
wear ending December 81. This is an
average circulation of about six read
ers for each book. There are sever
hundred more persons REGISTERED than
there are books in the entire institu
ton. Six hundred and forty persons
addde their names last year Abou
fourteen thousand people visited tn
reading aAd reference rooms.
Every phase of library work il
