WITH HIGH OR NATURAL WAIST
LINE. WITH OR WITHOUT CIRCULAR
RUFFLES.
Everything that gives the effect of
breadth at the hips is smart. In the case
of this skirt, the effect is acquired by
very simple means. Three circular ruffles
are arranged over the skirt on indicated
lines. They fare very slightly but, never
theless, they give the fashionable lines.
The skirt itself is in three pieces with the
edges Tapped at the left Of the front. As
matter of course, the ruff1es can be
omitted if plain skirt is wanted. Simple
as the skirt is, it can be treated in two
or three quite different ways. The plaid
illustrated is feature but many COM
binations are being worn and distinct
tunic effect can be obtained by making
the ruffles and the skirt above them OF
one material while the lower portion is
Of another. Plaid over plain would be
peculiarly effective treated in this way
and such effects are essentially smart.
The finish can be made at either the high
or the natural waist line.
Inc pattern of the skirt 8Iz3 is cut in
sizes from AZ to 81 inches waist measure.
1t will be mailed to any address by the
Fashion Department Of this paper, on
receipt of ten cents.

The only time 1t is excusable for a
man to be neglectful Of his personal
appearance is when he Is q fresh
widower. and then 1t Is really COM
mendable.
A widows love affairs are Cupid's
dull reading, but a widower's are his
funny papers.
For few weeks after his wife's
death widower looks at women with
the Indifference that characterizes a
sick man, but oh, how soon he gets
over 1t!
' 1t Is a wonder that it is not de-
manded of the bereft that they put
up new monuments every time the
styles change.
There are not enough men to go
around, which accounts for the change
of sentiment regarding widowers
Formerly 1t was an outrage when they
married again; now 1t is duty.
When some men marry the second
time, every one Is reminded of a boy
who has to learn his lesson over again.
1t often happens that a man retained
to the last reputation for good sense
because his wife outlived him and he
never had chance as a widower to
show how big fool he could be.

 the close of the school the several out l lines were bound in book form and mailed

1 Corn club boys that they were welcomed. They acted as guides during the organiza- ton of the school. In meeting the trains and conducting the boys as they arrived l to the headquarters, they did q service which was appreciated, and often com | mented on by the visitors.
 The college dormitory and student cot tages were used by the boys for sleeping
 quarters. Here they were provided with i water, lights and bathing facilities. The
 superintendent and his assistants occupy | ing the same quarters, and supervised {, every department of the school both day
 and night
 The dining hall was thrown open and all | the boys were fed in the college dormi- 1 tory. The planning and service of all
 meals were in the hands of ore of Au- 1 burns most competent boarding house l keepers.
 l The quarters, while being occupied, and
 the dining hall during meal time, were inspected by numerous visitors, who,
 without an exception. pronounced the for mer commodious and comfortable and the latter abundant and appetizing Without such large number of boys gathered from every section of the state it is quite interesting to know something of the business arrangement in the gen cal mana cement of the school The plan is here given:
 Upon arriving at Auburn each boy was required to register, giving his name. postoffice, county, and the name of his father. As he registered ne deposited suf- ficient funds to cover his expenses while attending this school. Arrangements were made for the deposit of any additional funds or other valuables, such as watches, rings railroad tickets, etc, and to take care of these valuabes until the boy was ready to return home. large envelope was provided for each his name. address and county being written on this. All of his vauables, including his money, were placed in this envelope. From time to time as the boys desired it spending money was issued to them and at the conclusion of the school a settlement was made with each boy. All of these en- velopes show on the outside the entire transaction with each boy. All envelopes, receipts and records are kept on file
 This most successful enterprise was made possible because of the co-operation given those in charge, by the State Bank CTS association; state, district and coun- ty agents in farmers cooperative work; county superintendents; county high school principals, agricultural school pres idents, teachers of several counties of the state, judges of probate and courts of county commissioners, business men and bankers in almost every city and town in Alabama

 Games of volleyball and baseball were played each afternoon by picked teams from north and south Alabama The
 larger boys playing baseball the smaller ones volleyball. Four games of base ball were played, north Alabama winning two. and south Alabama an equal num-
 Der. The young fellows proved a sports manlike lot of ball players. Their games were devoid of any roughness and char acterized by the spirit of fair play which was very evident at all times The conduct of the boys attending the
 school, deserves the highest commenda- ton. During the concert given at Lang don hall on Friday night. the director of the programme. in speaking of the conduct of the 166 boys who were attend ing the school, said: We have been with these boys constantly since they have been here. have slept in the
 dormitory with them. and have been with them during the day as well as at all
 meals. l have not heard one word, from
 any of them, that had tinge of vulgarity
 or profanity about it. The dormitory
 was repainted and calcimined just before
 the boys arrived I have today made an inspection of quarters and have been un-
 able to find wherein the building has been defaced in any way, not even by a single pencil mark. During the recess periods,
 while we were engaged with our pro- grammes, the boys had every opportunity to make depredations on the peach and apple orchards, but not one report came to me of any corn club member pulling any fruit from the trees ou the horticul- tural grounds. In fact ihe conduct of the young farmer boy has been ideal, and l take pleasure in commenting them for it.
 The programme given on Friday even ing. consisted of yells. songs, compost tions, declamations and histories of the acres of corn grown by prize winners. It was intensely interesting, reflecting credit on all taking part.

UP AND DOWN BROADWAY
By ALLAN GFIFFIN JOHNSON

New York, August 15.-(Special )-Al- most everything except reports of the war in Europe, seems to be taboo in the New York newspapers of today, and yet, in spite of them, merry old Manhat- tan is actually smiling. Not at the fact that other nations are murdering each of their warfare which in many cases are so wholly out of the question that the papers that publish them publish kind of retraction soon thereafter.
 About the most realistic enthusiasm we have experienced is the marching of the foreigners who have been making Broad way resound with the national airs of their nationss Gotham had a thrill or two at the outset, but it has quickly settled back to it's customary callous- ness and apparent absorbtion in itself.
 Hotels and newspapers are doing an enormous business, but up on the popular roofs (and by the way. pronounce that word roof" as you would sound the double O in "hoof'). Terpsichore still reigns supreme, and the tangoing thou sands do not seem to know that a war is in progress.
 The regular playhouses too, are reopen ing and are drawing splendidly, and ev- erything Is In its regular course of early preparation for the approaching season of fall gaieties. It IS a strange little island-in fact 1t Is a large little island and 1t hesitates long time before it takes stock in anything except itself. When it reads that European armies are rushing toward such and such a point, 1t smiles indulgently and wearily and thinks: Yes rushing along at less than 10 miles an hour-what dyou mean, rush. ing, anyway"
 And as for our marooned Americans New York thinks it is going to be fierce to have to listen to the long drawn out tales of their experiences when they are all safely settled in their Manhattan houses once again.

JUST SEASONS.


 The green of the summer is fading away, And autumn Is slowly advancing; The blue of the heavens we gaze on today Grows gray even while we are glancing; The gay. dancing leaves on the zephyr
 kissed trees, Ere long shall float earthward on
 autumn's chill breeze,
 And thus be an end of their dancing. Then winter, old winter season shall lay His hand on our hearts as he passes, Yet nature so wills it. then why not be
 gay,
 For hark ye, my lads and my lassies. Afar in the distance the joyous hum Of springtime, the glad time, and soon
 1t will come,
 All decked in its green. waving grasses! Like nature. each heart has its winter and
 fall;
 Iris all in life's little summing; Yet sorrow but holds us a while in it's
 thrall,
 Ere joy returns with it's drumming; For autumn and winter and sorrow and May pause but moment ere onward
 they go
 For springtime is surely a-coming! Here are a few tipping figures which may guide you away from insult upon your next visit to this city: For dollar and Ia half dinner 50 cents; to the hat boy. 25 cents; to the elevator boy for round trip, 10 cents; for a 25-cent quick lunch df you can find one), 10 cents; to the barber for 15-cent shave. 10 cents; to the boy who brushes you off. , cents eff you are close -fisted); to the girl who ushers you to your seat in ''movie' theatre. 10 cents; to your butcher, grocer.
