Peg tops and panniers, tunics and
ruffies, mark the new skirts and seem
to be growing in favor every day.
Often these hip draperies are of chif-
fon or net the new soft taffetas seem
especially suited to panniers, as it has
just body enough to require no bones
or wire The lowered taffetas are
very quaint and pretty giving an 1880
effect which is fascinating.
No 1896 shows an afternoon costume
Of plain and figured taffetas. The
skirt is a peg top design with the folds
laid In softly about the waist. A soft
sage green is the color, with the side
tunics showing just a suggestion Of
pale Persian shades and a cleverly ar
ranged waistcoat Of the same shade Of
green velvet.

gagged in the big conference at Wash
ington, d. c.
The gathering will be of statewide
interest to Georgia in two ways. First
thousands of people from all parts Of
the state will come to the conference
in Atlanta; and second, some of the
famous speakers will be sent from day
to day, when their local speaking en-
gagements do not conflice, to other
towns and cities of Georgia to speak.
In previous years DR.. Len G. Brough-
ton has presided over the conference,
but this year he has cabled that he will
not be able to come. The Conference,
however, has secured the cooperation
Of Rev. Sol c. Dickey, D. D., as direc-
tor of the con serence, and it is expect
ed that the gathering will be the most
successful in the organizations his
tory. Rev. Richard Orme Finn, of At

tic exchanges have resulted. In q
canvass OF Pierre sentiment the suf-
frage workers interviewed 446 WON

ferent and 81 opposed. The ants
claim that the iva was conducted
in a prejudiced and artful manner
and that many of the expressions
were the result of personal campaign
ing, and not bona fide opinions.

The archbishop of Canterbury is
endeavoring to have the government

it imposes on each marriage certifi-

Nearly half a million recruits are

months unless some unexpected cal

a majority of them are unmarried.
Many weddings are occurring daily
at the various camps and new recruits
and their sweethearts are often much

English law one of the parties to a
marriage must have resided in the
parish in which they are married for
at least fifteen days. The archbishop
of Canterbury has suggested that this

than loo, 900 have arrived on Eng

pouring across the channel daily
Thus the burden Of the tragedy is
falling upon Holland, England and
France. While the eventual repatria-

countries looms on the horizon as
one of the greatest problems in mod
