Rules And Regulations
Are Issued For Canal

Washington, July 21-Rules and
regulations for operation and navi-
CATION of the Panama canal are
provided for in an executive order
just issued. Generally these are
framed upon the regulations in
force in the Suez canal and the
500, though there are new features
made necessary by peculiar local
condisions.
One is the limitation to six knots
per hour imposed on the speed OF
vessels in the Culebra cut and il
is even required that an approach.
ing turns vessels shall maintain
the slowest speed that will keep
their Roadway. In Gatun lake,
however, in the thousand-foot
channels, the speed may be as high
as Is knots; in the 8OO-foot chan
nels 10 knots, and in the BOO foot
channels 10 knots. Every where
else in the waterway, in Mirafora-
aess lakes and locks and in the en-
frances to the ports the six.knot
rule prevails.
Greatest precautions are to be
adopted in the passage of vessels,
containing quantities of high ex.
plosives or lnfammable cargoes to
guard against injury to canal locks
or other vessels.

cred with woods are somewhat new
and interesting. As is always the
case with any work that is done on
the garment itself, becoming a part
thereof and not merely applied, the
embroidery gives a suggestion Of
elegance that is not otherwise to be
obtained. Just now the fancy is for
rather broad effects. embroidery that
does not mean close work, and women
who are at all skilled with the needle
can do the work without great effort.
Semi-conventional flower effects are
liked for the purpose and the colors
employed are apt to be bright and
almost vivid in conformity with the
general trend of the season. Bead
embroidery takes numberless forms
and may be all of one color or Of varie-
gated colors and, since to accomplish
it, it is only necessary to sew little
beads over a stamped design, it does
not seem difficult so long as a good
color model is followed. A fascinating
little coatee of white taffeta to be
slipped on over any lingerie gown is
embroidered on its edges with pale
yellow roses and their tender green
leaves, all executed in the tiniest pos
sible crystal beads and the effect is
beautiful beyond words.
In its latest development, the street
costume is a very fascinating creation
and for it are used most interesting
variety of materials. Short, iauntv
little coats that suggest the bolero at
the front share the honors with belted
coats. The poplin weaves are much
used, taffeta is a pronounced favorite
and there are a great many crepe
suitings that are exceedingly smart.
Skirts may be aounced or may be
draped but, in one way or another.
every fashionable costume provides
breadth over the hips. Many Of the
new skirts are draped at the back to
suggest hustle effect but such drapery

NOTES FROM
THE FASHION CENTERS

NHAT We are to have a summer
of feminine effects, deliciousIy
soft, fluffy costumes, all the
picturesqueness that goes with real
lemininity, seems to be assured.
Paris, the whimsical, has set the seal
Of approval upon lace and all fiImy
stufs, upon founcings Of all sorts,
upon draperies that are really ex-
uuisite and upon every possible evolu-
tion Of the fancy little cape or mantle.
Il has been whispered and hinted that
the summer styles Of 1914 would be
those Of the Second Empire and there
have been various rumors Of a similar
sort but, as has been stated In these
letters again and again, we never
really copy any earlier time, we only
CLEAN suggestions therefrom, and what
We are to have with the coming Of
a-lupiwer weather is an adaptation Of
the 1880 styles that makes them prac-
tically new and really all our own.
Every variety Of founcing Is to be
worn and women who have treasures
Of lace hidden away may we'll search

forth for lace ls to reign supreme, but
we also will wear flmy musllns EN-.
broidered to give border effects, voiles
and marquisettes that are woven In
variety Of flouncings or bordered stufFs
and it is truly amazing to note in how
many ways they are being utilized.
what an infinite variety Of effects are
being obtained with their help.
All the fancy little capes and man
ties seem to belong to this sort Of cos.
tune by natural right. We really did
not need these latest models and this
latest Information from across the
sea, for the cape was a foreteiler Of
It all. To be sure, Il came to US first
IN a rather severe from and adapted
to essentially prosaic uses but Il was
a cape nevertheless and those Of ~
things realized that the garment was
sure to develop, sure to take hum
dred forms, sure to become just what
4 IS becoming, fascinating little
wrap, capable Of producing wonderful
effects and Of giving just the touch Of
coquetry that always seems the
essentially feminine touch.
