COATS ARE TO BE LONGER
Partisan Dress Arbiters Have Said So,
bat the Length Is to Have Some
Restrictions.

OF one thing we are certain: That
the coats on street suits are decidedly
longer than what women expected.
1t is true that many short coats were
brought over by the buyers, and hun
dreds more were made here, but the
masters of dress, in Paris. accented a
longer coat and their models are win
ming out.
One does not mean by this that the
coat reaches the knees, o. that it Is
cut in a straight line around the fig
ure, but it does mean that the waist
coat front reaches we'll below the
waist, and the back drops half way
down to the knees. There is no bob
tailed effect in the smart coat this
month 1t is excessively broad, and
SO full under the arms that it appears
to be Craped. and there is a narrow
belt across the back to push up the
fullness above the waistIine, but there
is enough of peplum below this
breadth and ful1ness to keep the
proper proportions.
One of the very new street coats
has a panel inserted down the middle
Of the back which is cut six inches
longer than the sides, hanging like a
sash to the knees. 1t is straw
which shows how the wilma will blow.
BY the way, this coat was part of a
suit that had many new features in
it. 1t was a canary yellow Suther
land tweed with q short skirt, a black
satin collar on the coat and a lining
of white satin with dull purple stripes
1t was intended for country wear with
a small black hat made of silk beaver
holding upright a stiff yellow brush,

The colorS of the materials are a
matter Of choice, but colors of too
light shade should not be selected,
as they will soil too quickly. Dark
green or claret colored material would
be serviceable and look well, and in
both cases; the lining might be Of pale
blue or yellow soft silk.

The part failure of certain tree crops

indifference in this regard among the

the subject of fruit growing in gen
eral, as well as special courses and
lectures in regard to the various
branches of the industry.

Luther Secrest and Robert
Swadley furnished considerable
amusement for bystanders last
Thursday evening by doing a few
accrobatic stunts. As will be re-
membered it was very rainy
evening and the mud was rather
deep in the streets. Messrs.
Swadley and Secrest were up
town and spied a wagon going
their Way on Waisworth Ave,
and climbed in. The driver hit
the team a cut with his whip just
as they began to straighten up
and out both went on their heads
into the mud. 1t required a
shovel to get the mud out of
their hair and ears to say nothing
of getting it scraped off of their
clothes. Fortunately, however,
the mud was soft and the men
were not hurt.

Denham Theatre.

At the Denham Theatre Miss
Lang and the Denham Players
will present the very clever COM
edy Green Stockings" by e. w.
Mason commencing with the
matinee Sunday May 10th.
The story deals with a custom
that required the eldest daughter
of the family. if not married or
engaged TO wear green stockings
at the wedding of a younger sis
ter. Celia Farroday had twice
worn green stockings, and the
third time for her was in sight,
and she was looked upon by the
family as hopeless old maid.
But Celia was the really clever
one of the family, and was grow
ing tired of the patronage of her
sisters, the unconcealed disap-
pointment of her father, and so
she determined to invent sweet
heart. This she did picking a
Colonel Smith," whom she sent
to South Africa, there to fight
the natives, and to get killed at
the right time. She wrote him
regularly, and destroyed her let
ters. But one of these got into
the mails, and to Colonel Smith,
who did exist, and on the day she
announced his death through the
columns of a newspaper, Colonel
Smith turned up at the Farraday
home. He was III pursuit of the
joke himself, but he found he
had met his fate instead, and the
end comes with Celia happily en-
gagged to the colonel. All of this
material is worked out in a most
delightful way, and makes one of
the most charming of comedies.
Miss Lang will have the role of
Celia. the part first played by
Margaret Anglin for two years
and Mr.. Anthony will have the
role of Colonel Smith"
Green Stockings will run for
the entire week with the usual
Matinees Sunday, Wednesday
