Of OREGON
COSTS LESS PER CAPITAL

OF SO states which maintain state
universities, the state of Oregon ranks
absolutely the lowest in amount of
support given per student. This is
from Bulletin SO of the United States
Bureau of Education.
The per capita cost is obtained by
dividing the total appropriation by
the number of students and this gives
such states as Florida, Montana and
Utah, respectively, $54l, $54l, $5l7.
The average for the whole 30 states is
$500, Oregon enjoys the unenviable
distinction of being last with II per
capita support of 1857.

Some Wonderful Creations are being
Shown by Artist to Ladies of
New York City.
VELVET HAS PROMINENT

Advocate of Persian Styles for
American Women.
BY MARGARET MASON
written for the United Press)


Monsieur Paul Poiret
is here for to say
That your style must be all to the
Persian.
So turbans acquire
And tunic on wire
And on trousers don't look with
aversion.
New York, Oct 20.-Since Paul Poir-
ct and his svelte better half are in
our midst to show American beauties
the gentle art of dressing, every fash
ion shop is giving subtle Persian af-
ternoon S where dangerous models pa
rade in latest Oriental creations in
spired by the great and only Poirit.
Soft strains from Liza Lohman s 'The
Persian Garden" fill the air. The
lovely models fill the gowns, and later
friend husband will be called upon to
fill the bill when you've taken your
pick of the wondrous creations.
For morning wear three lovely Poiret
models were offered at a recent ex-
hibition. First was blue serge with
long straight lines, the loose normal
waist line belted in a girdle of scarlet
and gold embroidery thken from
Persian document. The girdle was set
up in triangular piece on the front
Of the bodice and triangular patches
Of the embroidery frightened the long
loose sleeves at the wrist line. The
skirt was draped up slightly at one
side with a patch of the embroidery
and revealed the new knee-high boot of
soft blue kid loose and wrinkling above
the ankle
Another tailored costume of tan cloth
was inspired by the uniform of an
ancient Tunisian warrior 1t was made
with short Russian blouse elaborately
braided in Oriental designs A girlsh
model in rose duvetyne, which by the
way is one Of the newest Of the many
new and lovely materials, was of
blouse and tunic effect with touches of
black.

Velvet is Much Used.

Velvet is Much Used.
Judging from the afternoon models
offered you won t dare wear anything
but velvet. Quite the most beautiful
gown was Of lustrous old blue panne
velvet much draped as to skirt with
Iall the fullness about the hips; the
bodice was cut low and filled in with
soft net and band of mink outlining
the shoulders and coming well down
below the bust line on each side Of the
front.
A rich black velvet skirt topped with
q bright scarlet tunic cut like the
uniform Of the warlike Cossocks was
the Poiret offering for the afternoon.
The tunc was sleeveless. Bright red,
blue green and yellow barbaric EN-.
broidery Of the TRANSIT Caucasian regions
outlined the armholes and lined the
tunic. Long black velvet sleeves like
the skirt contrasted with the tunic. A
soft draped model Of olive green vel
vet has three quarter loose coat below
which a wide ribbon of old blue showed
diHped from the girdle in long loop
caught in at the front and the back Of
the draped skirt. A startling costume
Of black and white was in velvet with
a wired tunic of black chiffon edged
with brlliants. The low cut bodice
WAS outlined with an outstanding wired
frill with brilliant edgng and the short
transparent sleeves were finished with
a row Of them. The skirt was draped
up IN front between the knees where
Il huge tassel of jet dangled on n twist.
ed rope Of jet from the girdle and
clanhed like a ball and chain at every
footstep. Like wondrous visions from
fairyland the evening gowns were pa
raded into view The exquisite coloring
aud mvishng designs Of the fabrics
reekeed Of the splendors Of the Orient
and the romance Of the Arabian nights.
A quantity charming sartorial poem by
Paul Poiret inspired by the miniature
Of young Princess Of Bagdad showed
a scant straight skirt Of white satin
slit up in front surm0unted with four
little stffly wired tuncs Of white
chiffon rising in tiers to the short
wasted black velvet bodice. The low
round neck was outlined in n wired
white chiffon frill and the sleeves were
mere black velvet caps. The hdaddress
was a close fitting casque Of whole
pearls, An adorable gown with n skirt
Of black satin aud a tunic like the in.
yerted calyx of morning glory was
another Poiret inspiration. The calyx.
like tunic was Of pale lavender satin
lined with rose pink satin and embroid
cred in Persian flowers In delicate
shades Of layended pink and blue. The
low cut black satin bodice had the
flowered embroidery converted into
short sleeves and draped softly over the
bust

CAN CARESS HER
WHEN SHE'S DEAD
kISSLEsS MAID OF THIRTY SAYS
WOMEN HYPOCRfTICAL: MEN
DON'T COUNT.

POTTSVILLE. PA. April 21.--This
town Is agog over the presence of a
young lady of thirty years, who has
never been kissed Not only net
kissed by a man. but not by woman,
either. and the townspeople who have
had the pleasure OF her society were
simply astounded when Miss Eleanor
Slayer, of Cincinnati, who is visiting
some friends in this city, refused to
be a party to the kissing habit.
Al a recent social function at the
home of her relatives, Miss Slayer re-
fused pointblauk to be kissed She
confessed to her age and then de-
clared that OSCILLATION was habit and
a practice which she despised so much
that she had never had the temerity
TO adopt It
Miss Slayer said that she was OPP
posed to women kissing each other.
because they never meant affection for
the other when they kissed They
are always hypocritical and when a
woman kisses, Miss Slayer says 1t is
with the though you wretch. IN get
even with you for this on their
minds.
She added that she is not n man
hater, but that the habit was unciean,
against her scruples. and that she
would never kiss anyone while she
was alive. After she was dead, she
said. she did not care
