ruf1es in the sleeves Of this dress. They
are made of net like the vest. and bound
Here the modish crush girdle is retained.
This model is also intended for cotton
crepes, and rHtine.
Speaking of bound ruffles," for sleeves,
calls attention to similar treatment of two
circular founces about the hips of the
lower left figure. The skirt (S212) Is
plain and close fitting, narrow at the foot,
and yet cut so as to have the latest sill
houette outline produced by the founces.
1t is made of gabardine, a material vie
ing with serge for practical wear: and
one which hangs well. The binding Is
taffeta silk cut on the bias. Binding of
braid, on rufiles for street skirts are ex-
ceedingly smart again, with similar
finish on the jacket worn with it. Ribbon
velvet is also much used as the finish of
lace or net rufles.
Still the upward tilt of skirts in front
is seen. Two tunics, cut slightly circu-
lar, so as to fit the hips snugly are the
feature of a very practical and becoming
skirt in model (s195). As shown, the
model is made of a lightweight summer
suiting, with fancy ribbon vest and cuffs.
and a soft silk girdle. The lines Of the

features that are pleasing and easily
adapted to the needs of the average
woman.
Box plaits are again in vogue. They
have ventured in with the excuse of let
ting a little fullness into the skirt bot
tom to make walking easier. Outing
skirts, for golf and tennis will have some
plaits, disguised, or hidden, if not plainly
in view. The large figure near the centre
of this page shows one of the latest types
of dressy afternoon gown, made of a
brocaded crepe de Chine. The skirt
(S14S) has two box plaits in the middle
OF the front, side drapery, just enough
bouffant to be up to the minute and even
the hint at a tunic in the middle front
section, which is trimmed with n row of
buttons. The soft blouse of the same ma
terial has a rounded collar seeming to
outline a bosom shaped vest, having no
collar. While the faring Medici and the
Chinese collars. are much used on some
dresses, there is no decided tendency to-
ward stock collars, save in a few strictly
tailored waists, and a few neckwear ac-
cessories, which the manufacturer has ex-
plotted for the sake of n change. You
viii notice that there are long circular

hHAGPIE effects are conspicuous in
Nl parascls. as well as in dresses and
hsos for the season of 1914 BLACK and
white stripes are smart and popular, as
;p-ssnced in the noEel parasol shown on
is page with the brocaded crepe de Chine
o<s1me. Shape counts for as much as
Il, covering itself. This particular
novelty has a rolling edge not unlike the
upturned brim of a sailor hat. II it were
a rain umbrella, there might seem to be
an excuse for the gutter in which 10
catch tire drips.
Another noticeable fancy black and
white parasol has the stripes running YER
ticzlly on n frame described as the
Minaret, which fashion motif it resembles.
The sides are in panels joining the top
at a sharp angle. In fact there is n
double roof on the inside frame. Black
raarsbout borders this fancy accessory.
SHRED net or lace covers combined
with ribbon are noticed among the dainty

dress are graceful and very becoming.
For a dark silk dress, or al light one, the
same idea can be carried out with the pat
tern for this useful wooden dress. A plain
and Powered material may be combined
splendidly in the same design also. The
shops are featuring plain poplins, with
novelty ones of the same color ground
having printed flower designs on them
One or both tunics are made of the fancy,
and the blouse trimming. In wash ma
terials, one tunic might be of lowered
and the other of plain. The three-quarter
sleeve is seen on many new dresses and
separate waists; while the full length
sleeve is so much in evidence, that we can
only conclude both are correct. In all
probability, the shorter sleeves viii OBJ
tain for midsummer.
Apropos of sleeves, the latest long silk
gloves are flesh color, to give the effect
of none on the arm. This follows the
Paris fad for flesh colored stockings with
almost any kind of shoe or slipper.
The semi-tailored dress, so indispen-
sable in the practical wardrobe, has not
been forgotten amid the fancy creations
for the opening displays. Here is smart
dress (S1S9) for morning, shopping,
travelling or outing. Just a little fullness
in the skirt is held in by plaits at the
foot, and near the belt, giving the effect
of some fashionable breadths across the
hips, and making the skirt comfortable to
sit in. The blouse is severely plain ex-
cept for a vest of soft white crepe de
Chine, turning over in n wide collar. The
cuffs match, and have an odd and inter
esting fastening of frogs on cord loops,
in lieu of ordinary round buttons. The
model selected to show here as a type of
simple gown easy to make, and very in
expensive, is made of black and white
WOOL rsfine costing ST 5O nor ward The
vest is white and the cording either side
of it, and on the skirt is black moire silk.
The girdle is moire also: and to complete
the chic effect, a trim little turban is worn
with this gown, being of black Milan with
a MORE crown; and trimmed witRa fancy
ostrich aigrette.
The price of this and of each OF e. other
patterns for illustrations described is 10
cents.

parasols, which like all other articles OF
feminine ndornment are more or less fussy
1t is quite the correct thing to trim your
parasois as You would your hats. Para
soils handles are long to allow for the
height of hats of the moment. Some
handles are of jet or irridescent
beads; others are of natural wood, -,
plain or carded ; and still others have
tops or knobs of colored quartz.
Dressed in the attire which Paris de-
signers are now featuring, many smartly
gowned women look as if they walked out
of some olden time pictures. Vatican
and Directoire hats have been reproduced
from portraits. Quantity picturesque are
the latest plateaux of straw or velvet with
loops of ribbon feathers, or flowers piled

REVIVAL SPIRIT
IS GROWING
FOUR ADDITIONS LAST NIGHT.
THOMAS breaches A TELLING
SERMON AGAINST SIN.

Four additions at the First Chris
tian church last night show how the
revival spirit is growing in the Thom-
as meeting. This makes a total of
twelve added so far in the series.
There will be a baptism service to-
night. The subject of the sermon will
be The Second Coming of Christ. ="
The evangelist says he will give some
new ideas upon the subject and will
show anyone who comes, what an i'm
portant doctrine it is.
Wednesday night the Seven Snares
of Satan will be a presentation of
the seven conditions of thought and
living which keep people from Christ.
Thursday night Thomas will deliver
his sermon-lecture, What is the Mat
ter with the Modern Young Lady" in
stead of Friday night, as first an
nounced. This is a very interesting
and popular sermon and everywhere
the evangelist goes it attracts a large
audience.
Last night Mr. Thomas sang a
sweet song, The Name of Jesus" and
1t was well received. The sermon last
night was a plain attack on the evils
of the day, both in and out of the
church, and the speaker delivered
some telling blows. He said, "If Je-
sus should come to Ardmore tonight,
he would see churches refusing to
take organized and adequate action
against the evils of the city"
THE church fails to do its work
because it refuses to take the com
mands of Jesus literally
"If Jesus came to Ardmore, he
would see a great number of useless
names on the church rolls-names
that stand for nothing
He will see many things going on
after dark that would make him
blush with shame"
Christ would be amazed at the
number of thoughtless people who

In another opinion by Judge Har-
rison. the rule OF descent and dis
tribution for the Choctaw indians is
elucidated and re-stated in terms that
add to the recorded knowledge on this
subject. The opinion says;
Upon the death OF a mixed blood
minor child Of the Choctaw tribe OF
Indians, the fee in their allotment
ascends to parent of tribal blood, and
not the parent who has become cit
izeu of the tribe by virtue OF an in

This case grew out of contest as
to who was the. rightful owner of
three allotments that had been made
to the children OF an intermarried cit
izen and an Indian woman who had
separated from him and married an
other man. The three children had

Oklahoma City, Okla, May lin
the case of Fielder VS. Fielder, which
was decided in the supreme court
commission today. in an opinion by
Judge Harrison, the propaganda for
increase of married women's rights
gets strong support. 1t was an ac-
ton brought by the woman for dam
ages for personal injury inflicted by
the husband during coyerture The
old theory was that women, upon be
coming wives, merged their personal
ity in that of their husbands and be-
came non-eXistent insofar as any sep
arate legal entity was concerned.
Judge Harrison said in this opinion:
1T is the policy of our constitution
and statutes to open the doors of the
courts of justice to every person for
redress of wrongs, and reparatfon for
injuries; and under our constitution
and statutes a married woman may
