NEWEST HAIR DRESSING

sidered the result Of utter ignorance;

America but the excuse was not pres

In Paris the miiliners are bringing
out many large hats. which have tempt
ed women into believing that the wide
brim will again be in fashion. but it is
hardly probable that this will happen
as long as the narrow silhouette re-
mains.
The small hat is too convenient and
universally becoming to be easily given
up. According to the way we live
large hat is nuisance. 1t blows in the
wind, it is decidedly uncomfortable in
motor or trolley and 1t is objection
able in any public place.
Women like the small hat and there
fore they will probably retain it and
the small coiffure, and the latter is
the more important. 1t makes women
look more refined than they did under
that fashion Of heaping the head with
false puffs. cur1s and braids. OF course
the sickness is exaggerated today. for
every woman expresses her mentality.
or lack of it, in the way she dresses;
but at it's worst it is better than
mountain of hair. Women have learned
to arrange it in a graceful manner. and
even the hairdressers have stopped
complaining. for. after all. they have as
much to do as they desire.
There are various ways of sweeping
the hair across the forehead and some
are excessively ugly. One thing is GER
tain. however. the ears must be cover
ed il ones face is to be at it's best un-
der the modern hat. 1t goes down over
the ears and the hair should show be-
low it. This is not always easy to man
age. for few faces can stand the long
slanting line over each Of the temples.
Those who are clever are able to curve
the hair sharply in at the end of the
eyebrows and bring it out again in
front OF the ear. This line is very
graceful

1Y ANNE RITTENHOUsE.

There is no way Of divorcing the
coiffure and the hat as far as fashion
goes.
That is the reason women watch one
or the other with good deal Of inter
est They realize that one governs the
other. As long as the hats remain small
the coiffure Will do go. The woman who
cannot wear small hat or arrange her
hair close to the head wonders wnat
she can do under the present fashion
to make herself look more attractive.
1t is always a sign OF artistic culture
to like the small head. and yet this is a
difficult lesson to teach. An immense
headdress has always appealed to the
majority: there is better feeling or
balance between the head and the rest
of the body, but the real feeling should
be to make the head, like the feet and
hands, the tapered point of the body.
When general Grecian styles came IN
the small coiffure came in with them
Both were accepted in moderation lor
a time. and now both are accepted with
enthusiasm. We may not recognize the
drapery of Egeria in the swirling
white satin gown of the girl who en-
tcrS ballroom. but the idea Is the
same, and the drapery is merely modi-
fed to suit modern convenience and
environment.
Women anxiously await the outcome
of fashion in hairdressng. There does
not seem to be any set OF arbiters for
the coiffure and yet its changes are
frequent and drastic. Once upon a time,
and not SO long ago, women wore every
kind of hair. human and otherwise, on
top Of their heads and held 1t in place
with several gaudy combs. IL many OF
these coiffures had been seen on a

Mistah Mocker the Mockingbird had
been very late in coming up to the Green
Meadows from way down south. The
truth Is he had almost decided not to
come You see, he loves the sunny
southland SO much and all who live
there love him so much that If 1t hadn't
been for Unc' Billy Possum and or Mis-
tab Buzzard he never. never would have
thought of leaving even for little while.
Unc' Billy and OF Mistah Buzzard are
particular friends of his, very particular
friends, and he felt that he just had to
come up for little visit.
Now Mistah Mocker reached the Green
Meadows just after Peter Rabbit had
brought little Mrs. Peter down from the
Old Pasture to live with him in the dear
old briar patch. He knew that little Mrs.
Peter didn't know anything about him,
for he never had visited the Old Pasture
where she had spent her life. But he
knew all the bird people who do live
there. for he had met them in the sunny
southland, where they spent the winter.

AMERICAN FASHIONS.
BY LILLIAN YOUNG.

To combine several materials and trim
mings and then bring them into pleas
ing ensemble by dash of still another
color and fabric is one of the tricks by
which fashion is distinguishing herself
lately. The idea is so capable of such
varied treatment, and allows such a
splendid opportunity for originality, that
it is indeed interesting. Also, it permits
some practice in economy, because bits
from the scrapbag can be worked in with
telling results as, perhaps, never before.
For dressy white frocks of handker-
chief linen, marquisette and voile, en-
broideries in eyelet and solid work play
an important part among trimmings,

INCREASED ENROLMENT
Second Monthly Report Made by SUI
perintendent Edwards for this School
Year DlsclOEes General Increase.

The report of superintendent Ed
wards of the Moorhead public schools,
for October the second report for the
present school year, shows a total en-
rollment of I'll, fOrty-siX more pupils
this year, according to the correspond
ing report made last year.
The superintendent avs the increase
is distributed through the different
grades so that it is not very noticeable
except in the fifth and sixth grades OF
the Sharp building. The enrolment in
each of these rooms is over 40 and too
large for the best quality Of work. This
condition will necessitate the opening
of the extra room at the Park building
another year making it possible for the
pupils OF the sixth and seventh grades
of tina ward to remain in their school
two years longer.
h enrolment in the high school
has now reached $50 which is nine
more than last year at the same time.
The most marked increase this year IS
in the two lowest grades. The first
grade with an enrolment of 116 sets
a new high mark. The second grade
wiah an enrolment of eighty and the
third grade with an enrolment or
seventy-eight promise good classes for
the future upper grades. All indica-
lions point to a steady increase for the
next two or three years.
