original and clever in design.
ANY number of fascinating decora-

have occasion to wear them. Near
ly all OF them consist of band sup

kind, and all sorts of sparkling and

used to make them. Spangles. tinsels,
rhinestones and pearls-the spangles
in all colors, as well as silver and
gold-provide the glitter. Tulle and
ribbon and flowers play their happy
parts. and a few soft and graceful
feathers are given places of distinc-

mediate refund of the amount due
them. The vouchers were made out
in the order in which they were re-
ceived and those who were last in line
were forced to wait several weeks.
Some even threatened suit. Visions OF
similar scenes come to the three de

think OF the new law and the admin

the law be tested out and a decision
obtained at the earliest possible date.
A number of constitutional lawyers
have observed that the new law is no

from the tax rolls of Detroit and no
portion of the refund can be used in
