KEITH VAUDEVILLE At GRAND.

The bill at the Grand this week is
above the average in its comedy
strength, and with an offering of that
sort. there is little wonder that the big
theater Is crowded at the daily matinee
and evening performances.

comedians and a woman who is deCid-
edly clever put on a burlesque on the
old fashioned one-ring circus. II stars

NEW YORK, April Jacques
Worth, of the House Of Worth, which
dictates the dress Of American women
and indeed of all civilized women, is
paying his first visit to America.
And the sartorial prophecy and
philosophy Of Jacques Worth, as he
unfolded them for me, should be Of
/ tremendous interest to the feminine
half of Atlanta In a series of articles
for The Georgian he discusses what
to wear and how to wear it as only he
or a member of his family is able to
do. He is the grandson Of the man
who went to France as a boy of Is
and founded the House of Worth, and
his uncle. Jean. is the present head of
the famous costume house. It's in
fiuence may be traced not only in the
wardrobes Of wealthy women, but in
the styles We all adopt, down 10 the
umpty' steenth ready made copy.
The first questions ] put to NJ.
Worth concerned the r-absOTbinR
problem of what they" are going to
wear this spring and summer. Here
are few of the most interesting an
nouncementS NJ. Worth had to make
for those who are purchasing their
new outfits:
The narrow, draped skirt will
be the favorite exclusive model,
preserving the long, slim lines of
the figure and eliminating hips.
THE waist line will not be high
up under the bust. nor will it be
quite natural, but Just between
the two extrenes-what we call
the three quarter,
Sleeves will remain small and
the long sleeve, hanging loose
from the shoulder and ending in a
point, will be popular for evening
wear.
Low collars will be generally

But what about the slit szirt?" I
inquired. so many women are wear
ing it now
NJ Worth leaned back and his
naturally arched brows described q
yet more parabolic curve, also his
double get of extraordinarily white
and regular teeth showed in a fleeting
smile.

tanning q little kerosene at various
points on the lawn with lanterns sus

attracted in swarms by the lights and
finally fall into the tubs. where they
are killed by the kerosene. One ad

that a lawn may be protected no mat

they are looking to you for it. The
everyday citizen has no time to hang
around the Hobbies of the general as
sembly urging right things and fight
ing wrong things. My observation con-
svinces me that nine out of ten of the
men who button-hole legislators, in
,sist on dining and winning them and
seek to make appointments for secret
conferences are inspired by motives
which may well be scrutinized. This
general assembly should refuse to
have it's aisles blocked by lobbyists
1t should insist that they appear Or
derby and openly before your several
committees. The man who cannot tell
You publicly what he thinks and why
he thinks it, is thinking something
that you should not be interested in
Let this be a warning against the
subtle influences of the lobbyist and
let me recommend that you so change
your rules as to require the reporting

ferred to committee.
