Quiet English Parish.

The tiny parish of Clannaborough,
North Devon, England, little village,
has a population of only AZ, so that
baptisms, marriages and burials are
not very frequent. The other week
the first marriage ceremony for Is
years took place, but even then the
couple were not parishioners, the
bride coming from St. Austell, the
bridegroom, whose home is at Ex-
mouth, being the rector's brother-in-
law.

TWO views Of the straight-backed
i coat, cut away In front above the
waist line, and hanging straight from
the shoulders, shows how easy and
comfortable looking 1t is. The waist
line is not defined either in the
blouse and skirt or-in the coat. The
blouse deserves its name as 1t hangs
over the top Of the skirt and the ef-
feet is apparently to make the waist
large rather than small.
Other models in these coats are
longer in front and gathered in to a
loose belt or band, placed at the nor
NAL waist line or a little below 1t.
And there are few models for pres
ent wear with shorter sleeves Three
