PROBLEMS IN DRE.SsMAKING
HOW TO MAKE a SHORT COAT

@OATS that give a bolero or Elton
suggestion at the front while
they are longer at the back are
among the smartest of the season.
The one shown here is so simple that
IL can be made in few hours while
it involves absolutely no difficulties
yet it is in the height of style and it
means many possibilities. for it can be
utilized for variety Of materials and
for quite different purposes. In the
picture. it is made of gabardine with
skirt to match and Is trimmed with one
Of the new fancy pongees and. treated
in that way, it Is an exceedingly fash
ionabie little coat for the spring suit.
Later it can be made from taffetS or
from linen or cotton eponge for thu
really warm weather wear and It
would make one of the prettiest pos
sible models for the fancy coat OF
bright colored material to be worn
over white gowns at the summer re-
sort. The sleeves can be made to the
wrists or I'm three-quarter length but.
unless the suit Is to be of very prac-
teal material for q very practical pur-
pose. the three-quarter length is to be
preferred.
For the suit OF gabardine. the little
coat is lined through with soft finished
peau de cygne and is finished with
stitched edges. For the wool suitings,
the linen suitings and the cotton suit
ings. that finish is a good one. For
taffeta, it would be both pretty and
fashionable to finish the edges with
heavy cords covered with the silk and
this silk would be especially effective
if it were put on with little fulIness
instead of quite plain. Taffeta lends
itself to all such treatments and for
that material. the cord is very much
in vogue.
For the fancy little coat of bright
color. silk or cotton duvetyn or the
ribbed material known as goIfine makes
an excellent choice and it is not neces-
sary TO Use any lining. Any one Of
these fabrics can quite properly he
finished with bound edges turned under

course. thin silk lining'can be usedi

CPR1NG Is always a fascinating
=, season and it means new and
pretty gowns just as naturally
as it does budding trees and fresh
green grass. In this group are shown
most interesting costumes. They
illustrate not alone the newest styles
but also the newest fabrics and they
are replete with suggestion. The
present is a season of wonderful con-
trasts and wonderful effects and in
almost every up-to-date gown is to be
found a touch at least of vivid color.
Among the novelties of the season
are to be found soft Oriental silks and
crepes in really wonderful figured
effects. The costume at the extreme
left shows one of these with trimming
of soft white muslin frills and the use
of white muslin is really one of the

skirt being made all in one piece and
the blouse in the Japanese style that
requires no fitting. 1t would be pretty
reproduced in any seasonable material
but the two-toned taffeta that is so
fashionable this season suggests itself
at once with perhaps double net for
the friIls in place of the hem-stitched
muslin.
Stripes are exceedingly smart and

the costume could be reproduced in

|TRANPED TO WILD RICE
Son of Frank CLANCY Went Out for a
Walk Last Nisht-Decided to
Walk to Wild Rice.

The S-year-old son of Frank Clancy
of the Chaney-Everhart Candy Co.
concluded to take a little stroll last
night and before he started back home
he thought he might as well take a
look at the metropolis of Wild Rice,
which, incidentally, he found so much
to his liking that he decided Il spend
the night there.
With another youngster OF the same
age. the two boys started out last
night for their constitutional. They
walked on and on until they finally
reached Wild Rice. Naturally their
parents were somewhat concerned and
secured the town over in all directions.
The frightened mothers thought OF
the river the first thing. The police
department was notified and an ex-
petition party was instituted immedi-
ately, Mr.. CLANCY and some friends
were out all night along the river bank
and the whole town over.
This morning the lads showed ur
and said they had enjoyed a fine lit
tie outing. When they arrived in Wild
Rice they found the walk back was
too much to attempt and they were
tired anyway, so they had a refresh
ing sleep in a barn.

Old Fashioned Thrift.

Editorial in The New Haven Jour-
nal-Courier: A husband confesses N
the current number of The American
Magazine to the part money plays in
marriage. AS he goes back over con-
Jugal difficulties, presumably from
middle age, he cannot recall even one
quarrel or disagreement or misunder-
standing that could not be traced d.
rectly to money matters. Is his an eX-
ceptlonal case, or are there any num-
Der OF married people who find this
experience verified in their own lives ?
In any event, the husband IS open to
criticism on one of two counts. Either
he has exaggerated the Importance of
money in his own affairs and over
stated the case, or he is no better than
many Of his fellow Americans who
think a great deal, and a great deal of
the time, Of the dollar.
We are not going to get excited
ABOUT 1t, especially on a week day, But
It does bring UP with force the old
criticism that American life, with its
absence of rank, title and hereditary
family, leads to a struggle to make
good through a display Of money. No
american ambitious to ARRIVE" can
pc happy without money, it appears.
No family a be happy when money
Is needed to maintain a social Nosi-
ton.
In this instance, husband and wife
quarreled about savings (they were
not rich nor even well-to-do), Their
quarrels indicate the point of stress in
their lives. 1t was all a question of
money. This in itself would serve .
socialist for an argument on economic
oetermlnisrn. If three Of the primary
motives in society and in marriage
love, hunger and vanity-are bound
up In a question of money for most
married people, and all their uuarreis
relate to money, the world must he
in a bad way.
Or shall we, with excellent modern
spirit, view this confession of a. hus-
band enthusiastically? 1t can be done. If
mis- domestic fluctuations are all due to
money troubles, let him discover that
money Is ont everything. Let him an
sWer the tolling church bell and seat
himself reverentially before the
preacher Of the morning. This is one
way out
There is another without resort to
that establishment of rank and heredi-
tary family, of which signs are current
here in the east. The second way
which lies open is the one which few
Americans seem ready to take; and
that is to shake off the demon OF I'M
rest n live within ones means.
AS Alba B. Johnson told the United
States commission on Industrial rela-
Mons in regard to the 10. 0 men m
phoyed in the locomotive works in
Philadelphia, OF which he is president:
The universal craze to get rick quick
has led too large a proportion Of the
people to live beyond their means. We
should get beck to the old fashioned
ideas Of thrift. The opportunities for
advancement today are greater than
ever. The trouble now is people want
to be prematurely and illegitimately
advanced.

WORLDS RECORDS
MAY Be BROKEN
Speed Kings of America Coming
to Minnesota State Fair Auto
Races.

The greatest auto racing program
eve offered to the Northwest will be
presented at the Minnesota State Fair,
Sept. 10. Never in the history of Ham,
line have SO many drivers OF interna.
tional reputation competed against
each other.
Over $1,000 in prizes have been of.
fered for worlds records by the Min
nesota State Fair. Four drivers, pilot,
ing the greatest cars ever built here on
abroad, have entered the one-mile and
ive-mile exhibition time trials In an
sndavor to win this money. These
tour speed kings are Barney Oldfeld,
Louis Disbrow, Eddie Rickenbacher,
and Bill Knipper. Some sensational
driving Is promised.
Lively Time Promised.
Oldfeld, in his great 200 horsepower
Eront-drive Christie and famous Fiat
Cyclone, has put up a forfeit that he
will drive a mile one second faster
than any other driver. Louis Disbrow,
holder of more worlds records than
any other man, is under forfeit to do
the same. He will drive his 2so
horsepower Jay-Eye-See and little Sim.
pick Zip cars.
Eddie Rickenbacher, winner of the
famous 300-mile Sioux City Speedway
race, July 4, has entered his Dusen-
berg a used on the Fourth. At Sioux
City he won over the greatest pilots
Ia America. Bill Knipper has entered
the Delage car piloted by Rene
Thomas, the Frenchman who won the
Worlds Speedway ace at indianapolis
On Decoration Day. There are follow
ers of the game who assert that the
Delage and Dusenberg cars are the
two best ever built.
Eddie Hearne Coming.
Eddie Hearne, the noted Chicago
pilot, who posed as team-mate to
wild Bill" Endicott last year, has en-
tered the Hamline races. Johnny
Raimey, driver of the Ohio s99 last
year, is another entry. Others already
entered are Fred Horey, Of st. Paul,
and Joe Cleary, of Chicago.
History will undoubtedly be written
when all these men get together.

THE MATTER
OF CENSORSHIP

Washington, Aug. 17.-Fngland
Russia and France have intimated to
the United States, that they do not
regard h recent application Of cen
sorship' to the wireless stations as nee
essarily requiring similar restrictions
on cable messages.
The Russian ambassador, George
Bakhmetteff, ans from Newport, r.
l., especially for a conference with
Secretary Bryan Saturday. It was be-
lieVed they discussed the proposed
censorship of cables.
t'oiville Barclay, the British charge
d'affaires, who was at tho state de-
partment later, said that the censoring
OF wireless messages was a natural
prohibition required under general
principles of international law, for, by
sending messages direct from Ameri-
can shores to belligerent ships, neutral
territory would be used as a basis for
hostile operations. Mr.. Barclay held
that the T~uckerton, N. j., station
should not be allowed to operate at all,
as 1t was established since the war
began.
If a censorship were established at
cable offices, it might seriously inter-
fere with the sending of code messag-
es to the various European govern
ments from their embassies and con-
~sulates, as code messages probably
would be prohibited. 1t is believed
that the Russian ambassador discuss
ed this phase of the subject Saturday
but he declined to reveal the object Of
his mission.
Final decision on the wireless-cable
controversy is expected today. 1t had
been the intention of the Washington
government to censor cables as we'll
as wireless, but commercial companies
have questioned the legality of such
an act, and Attorney General Mercy
nolds has been asked for All opinion.

800 PHONES OUT
OF COMMISSION
ACCIDENTAL TIPPING OVER OF
FIRE BUCKET GROUNDED ABOUT
THAT NUMBER OF LINEs-HAVE
no BE DRIED OUT BY FANS.

Through the accidental tipping over
of a bucket of water on he main
frame of wires in the central offices OF
the Northwestern Telephone Co.,, about
800 lines were temporarily put out OF
commission this afternoon. The lines
will probably be out some little time as
the water has to be dried out With
electric fans.
One of the employees was working on
the main frame when in some manner
a fire bucket, containing a quantity OF
water, was tipped over on the frame
and spilled on about 800 of the wires,
grounding every one of them. With
this ground on it is impossible to use
these lines.
AS soo as the accident happened a
number of electric fans were put into
position so that they would force a
little time during which the lines will
be out of commission.
