6EST SPRING COLOR
BLUE SERGE MOST POPULAR OF
THE SEASON.
For Small Girls Wear Nothing Can
Be Better-Here Is Garment
That VIII Make Up in Most
Satisfactory Way.

AS enduring as the rock of ages
blue serge comes into its own every
spring. Not that it goes out at any
other season-but In springtime 1t fs
as omnipresent as showers, flowers and
nice earthly smells. Always popular,
serviceable and in the best of taste,
1t holds an assured position that no
upstart, short-lived rival material can
GUST it from.
For your small girls between-sea-
son coat nothing could suit your pur-
pose more satisfactorily than navy
blue serge, and splendid design by
which to make up such garment is
offered in the sketch.
The odd feature is the belt, which is
an extension of the right side of the
coat. Starting from the neck, the
overlapping right side resolves itself
into slanting fve-inch band that
curves gradually into the belt. The
end is pointed and brought around to
the center front of the coat, then fas-
tened in place with three buttons, cor
responding with the three that hold
the top of the coat together. Snap but
tons at the sides and back of the belt
will serve to hold it in place. There

OLD IDEAS TO BE REVIVED
and Netting Will Be Favorites
of the Future.

Lace assumes more and more an i'm
portant place in the domain of home
furnishing. 1t is SO important that up
holsterers have to employ lacemakers
and are obliged to make lace purchases
on a considerable scale.
Among other things, pianos and win
dows are draped with lace, leaving
room for legitimate upholstery to come
afterward. All styles are available.
The renaissance" combines with lace
of quite modern origin. And, combin-
ing with all and second to none in
fashion or effect, IL the old-fashioned
crochet. The present taste for crochet
denotes remarkable revival in this
kind of thing.
Another revival besides it, and max

added. will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri-
ant; remove every bit OF dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing
the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to get the ready-tO-use tonic, costing
about so cents large bottle, at drug
stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding a
lot of muss.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it
does it so naturally, go evenly. You
just dampen Il sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared.
After another application or two your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft ard luxuriant and you appear years
younger.

! The winter season of the Morning
Music Club was formally ushered in
last night with the recital, given under
| its auspices, of Nine Dorothea North,
| the distinguished American soprano,
IN the Auditorium of the Voman's Col
/ lege. In spite of the cold night, Hat
| tiesburg music lovers in large numbers
attended the concert, and, from the re-
ception given Nine. North, they con-
sidered themselves more than repaid
for the trip.
The program was an exceptionally
pretty one, and Nine. North's voice
control was perfect. Encore after en-
! core was demanded, and eacl. time
she returned to the stage, smilingly,
and apparently more than willing to
satisfy the demands of her audience.
Not little bit of the credit for the
success Of the recital is due to Mrs.
A. J. Grove. the well known Hatties-
burg musician, who furnished the
lpiano accomplishments for Nine. North,
and following the conclusion of the
program. the singer openly compli-
mented Mrs. Grove on her work.
The range of the singer, who pos
sesses a dramatic soprano, was con-
sidered wonderful, and the program
was rendered artistically.
The next number of the clubs course
will be given December II.
The program was as follows:
