THE READY MADE
 CLOTHING BUSINESS.

The New York Times printed a lit tie article the other day on the de- velopment of ready-to-wear clothing. It told of the great changes in that trade during recent years. The diff ference, as one man puts it, is trying to fit every man that comes into the store, instead of merely trying to fit the average man.
 It is fortunate for the average mans purse, that ready made cloth ing has shown so much improve ment. In primitive times the cloth ing was cut and made up in each in dtviduaI home. Later there was period when women with some ex- perience as addresses turned out clothes for a whole village. Their rates were low and the clothing wore well, even if it fitted poorly More particular people, of course, patron jed higher class establishments.
 Today. tailors pay high wages, and in the larger cities much more com, fortable, workshops have to be pro- vided. The custom maker who ten years ago was charging $35 for a, suit of mems clothes, usually has to ask $45 for it today.
 Meanwhile ready made clothing has made no great advance in price. The makers pay more for labor, but by running large shops they keep the
 
 ity of hard working people have to forego the glove fit of finely tailored suit, as a too costly luxury. The disposition of the ready-to-wear trade to meet the needs of slim and stout and tall and short men enables nearly every one to find something that4 comes pretty close to his needs.
 Much the same conditions prevail in women's clothing. The cost of custom made dresses grows every year. Fashionable dressmakers. with style and gift at fitting the in diVidua1 figure, command almost any price they may ask. The average woman looks more and more to the ready made shop. Her vanity is not quite so well satisfied, but she has a lot of money left for other needs.

, Yales was the team work. Quick,
short passes invariably resulted in
field goals and that is what counts
with the score keeper. The work OF
Mark Mayer and Son Kahn for the
Yales was fine while Sam Barrow
proved quite accurate in goal shooting.
Billie Roberts played rather spec
tacular game for the Harvards with
Mobiles and Yates playing the floor
hard all the time
The second game proved to be the
most exciting and closely played. In
this game the Princetons gained a
lead of two points in the first half
which finally won their game for them.
The game ended with the Princetons
13 and the Cornells IL. In the first
part of the game the Princetons start
ed off with the pass work that the
Cornells were slow to get, but in the
second half OF the game the team
work of the two teams was as equal as
the score for the half, to 5. DeSilva,
captain of the Princetons, worked hard
for his team and shot foul goals in
grand style. Vaughn, Long, and Bark
dull work exceptionally well for the
Cornells.

planning that the draft was sent at
the request of the Indian woman to
pay her debt.

Schools Operating Illegally.

Yankton.-State Examiner f. l.
Lampy, who has been going over the
county officers accounts at the Yank-
ton county court house. gives as his
opinion that the Yankton city schools
are being operated illegally since the
institution Of the commission form of
government in the city. The board
of education operated under a special
charter and this was maintained after
the city adopted the commission plan,
although Mr.. Lampy claims that with
the change of the city government the
schools Of the city would operate un.
der the same law as other schools OF
the state in cities under commission
The city recently voted a 500, 000
bond issue for building a new school
which is held to be legal, as it was
placed under a vote Of the people.
