STATE EMPLOYMENT AGENCY
RUNS GOOD MAN OUT OF JOB
George l.. Shott's Office in City Abol-
ished by Act

The establishment OF State employ
ment agencies leaves at least one man
in this city without job He is George
L. Shott. of 1927 North 18th street, the
deputy In the Employment Agency in
the Department of Public Safety, which
is automatically abolished tomorrow to-
gether with about 130 private employ
ment agencies in this city.
The position. which paid 1920 year.
was created under the act of the Leg
islature OF April 25. 1901. and comes un-
der the supervision of the Department
OF Public Safety. The duties of the
deputy were to grant licenses. supervise
and inspect all private agencies. and ad-
Just disputes between the agencies and
those who had paid fees to obtain EN-
ployment
shott was instrumental in breaking up
the practice OF supplying strike-breakers
from this city In labor disputes in other
cities. He also was largely instrumental
In cleaning up the questionable renting
Of rooms by some of the agencies. He
was appointed as inspector in 1908, when
David T. Smith was the deputy. In 1912
Smith resigned and Shott was elevated
to the position of deputy.
Director Dripps today said II was to
be regretted that the act creating the
employment bureaus would throw Shott
out of a position, since his services had
been OF incalculable benefit to the city
and State.

ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. Si.-"Be as orig

new rule for feminine fashions on the

One need be neither a modiste nor a
male designer of feminine habiliamehts
to realize the New Year crowd now mere
is the best-dressed holiday throng ATTAIN
tic city has ever entertained. Palm Sun
day not excepted
While the Russian vogue OF tight-httlng
f1arinr skirted coat and short skirt, either
banded with fur or with broad braid Is
greatly H. evidence, there Is no limit ap-
parently upon individualism in trlmmlhss
and accessories. especially as to io9tWeer
and hats The same trend toward o.Isi-
nality runs to colors: and brown, deep
green, taupe and smoke-coloreu lapii'S
are much in evidence.

The fact that exceedingly pointed and
stilted -heel boots of battleship gray suede
are being worn Is not half SO interesting
as the habit many of the best-dressed
women here have of changing their foot
wear when they change their hats. three
times II they go to theatre at night
The temperance of feathers and
plumes for hats after long run OF pop
ularity for unobtrusive fur trimming Is
another token of the revolt against eN-
cessve uniformity.
Canine fashions also have changed on

four-Iegged pet nowadays Is an Airedale
of bristling coat.
There will be gay times In all OF the

upon n weekday. the lid will be OIL so tar
as the duration of the celebration Is con-

"The old saying In time of peace

of the ages" former Vice President
Charles w. Fairbanks told students Of
the University of Washington at a

we supposed we were at the highest

when we thought we were about to
discard all the implements of warfare
we found fifteen million men splitting
the richest blood of empires on the
field of battle. shooting to pieces this
gigantic heresy of war"
Refusing to be classed with pessi-
mists, Mr. Fairbanks expressed the
hope and belief that America, both
by example of history and sanity in
the present critical hour, might exer-
else influence for the restoration OF
peace and the crushing out of the war
spirit among men. He cited the hun
dred years of peace between the Uni
ted States and Great Britain as an
example of the successful operation OF
the principle which has been termed
