Women Need More Clothes.

"A woman must have more clothes

Workingmen and Regional Banks

In a communication to the
Seattle Sun, Henry Dubib, a citi-
zen of Selleck, Wash, asks in
what way working1nen would be
benefited by the establishment
of regional bank in Seattle.
The answer is simple enough,
says the Sun.
Many workingmen are borrow
erers. That is particularly true
of Seattle, where we have such a
large number of small homes
owners among the laboring men
of the city.
Many of these homes have been
purchased on easy terms. Actu-
ally they are paid for on the in
stallment plan. In a great many
instances, the deferred payments
carry as much as, or more than,
8 per cent interest.
Interest rates usually rise or
fall according to the scarcity or
the plentifulness of money in
the community.
Under The MD banking law it
was the 11aast peri dically to
concentrate nostpf the banking
capital of the nation in certain
big centers of the East.
The result was higher interest
rates in the cases of both the lit
tie and the large borrowers in
many parts of the country.
Under the new banking law
the concentration of the banking
capital of any prescribed region
would be, for all practical pur-
poses, in the city determined up
on as a reserve center for that
region.
Should Seattle, for instance,
be named as a reserve center, a
large percent of the banking cap
ital of the states of Washington,
Oregon, Idaho and Montana
would be at the beck and call of
the regional bank in this city.
The influence that condition
would have on the interest both
little and large borrowers would
have to pay, can be perceived at
once.
Not only so, but our leading in
prises, frequently put to neces-
dustries and commercial enter
sity of borrowing, would not be
stinted and starved by the tend
ency of our banking centers, at
periods when call money is in de-
mand at high interest rates.
In word, it would put indus
tries and commercial enterprises
here, upon which large numbers
of men and women depend for
a living, on practically equal foot
ing with similar industries and
enterprises in the larger financial
centers of the East.
With capital, labor in this Sec
ton would be equally benefited,
for both would. or could, be pro-
tected against exorbitant inter-
est charges.
Money would be easier and
cheaper.

What the Skirt Of the
Winter Season Really gS7

fective in the long tunics, dropped over
velvet or satin foundations, in which
they are usually developed. But lace and
tulle, quite as fashionable as velvet and
brOcade, are sometimes more effective
In less severe arrangement. To be
sure, there are some very good tulle
tunics, weighted at the bottom with
fringes of monkey fur or bands Of metal
lie embroidery. But the many-ruffied
skirt Is perhaps the best for tulle.
Sometimes three or even four tulle
skirts are superimposed, one above the
other. One charming debutante's frock
is made with a mauve satin foundation.
Over this Is dropped a skirt OF finely
pleated white tulle. and over that
second tulle skirt, plain, and dotted here
and there with deep pink roses. over
that is long tulle tunic, faring about
the lower edge, which is held out by a
piping of fnauve satin. The bodice is
made up OF a deep mauve velvet girdle
and little tulle. This is one OF the
most effective frocks imaginable for a
young girl.

A two-volume book might be written
on the skirt OF the moment, and yet the
subject would be only lightly touched
upon.
At a smart dinner q few days ago
there were as many different kinds Of
skirts as there were women at the table.
There was a frock of tulle, with many
flounces, bound each with satin. There
was a velvet frock, with a narrow fOun-
dation gathered into a fur band. and n
flaring overskirt of metal-brocaded silk.
There was a velvet frock with a skirt
draped about the ankles, slashed at the
back with a generous hand, and there
was a satin frock with a skirt slashed
high at the front. and a bead-embroider-
ed tuIle tunic that fell quite an inch
below the foundation. Then there was a
velvet skirt cut on circular lines, fitted
about the hips, two and a half yards at
the ankles, really the old bell skirt
that has been revived.
All Of which goes to show that the
skirt of the moment is as varied as Is
woman herself!
