The bicycle industry Is more than
keeping pace with the times" said l..
P. George, manager of the motorcycle
and bicycle department Of the Schu-
man Carriage Company. THE factor
les cannot turn out bicycles fast
enough to supply the demand. "The
Price of all bicycles has BEEN in
creased by 20 per cent, and we fully
expect a so per cent increase within
the next few months. The Iver-John-
son factory at the present time is $500
behind the orders in, and they have
refused to accept orders for immedi-
ate delivery. The increased price is
due to the cost Of metal. In letter
from one of the bicycle manufactur-
ers they report that there is demand
for better wheels, and that the prices
have advanced in most cases 90 per
cent, and that it would not at all sur
prise them to see the cost of produc-
ing to so per cent before the first of
the year George says that he has
200 orders for lver-JohnsonS waiting
to be filled.

~IlE Englishwoman takes such
II comfort from her afternoon cup

w pcration, such rest for worried
or weary nerves, that it does seem a

relaNation--if one has time for it; in
England, 1t IS a custom as unalterable
as tho laws of the Modes and Per-
sians--or the recurrence of the dim

woman would far rather omit dinner
from her daily routine, than afternoon
tea. Everybody takes tea at four

apron and assists the junior Office boy
to prepare tea for the entire Office
staff.
good many women, having ex-
perienced the delight and comfort of
English afternoon tea, have made
valiant efforts to establish the custom
in their own homes over here; but
sooner or later. after the novelty wore
off, something more important was
sure TO interfere with the pleasant 1t

O'Clock became spasmodic. dependent

- Of 1t these days Nobody wears
1t put old ladies and very small girls
whose mothers do not care for rom
pers. All the rest Of femininity spends
the morning hours, and most of the
afternoon as well, in sport clothes.
There are many advantages about the
summer wardrobe made up of sport
clothes and evening gowns and women
have been quick to find them ont.
one IS SO comfortable in sport clothes:

up, be it q walk, or sail. a game of

Separate Skirts and Sport Waists For
Golf.
This is the era OF the separate waist
and shirtwaist-only one must call II
a blouse, these days: or preferably q
"bloose" if one is extremely Partisan
and up-to-date. Sineularly enough il
is not at all necessary to wear a man
rish, tailored blouse with a rough and
ready sport skirt-not at ALL ones
tennis blouse may be of Georgette
crepe daintified with hemstitching,
and ones golf blouse Of pink and
white striped satin, if one so elects.
The sheerest. most elaborate lingerie
blouses were worn last summer at
fashionab bio summer resorts, with Colt
and tennis skirts of flannel and avn
ing-striped cotton; and signs 1T the
Southern resorts this winter point TO
the same custom for this year.
The pastel striped golf hlousas arc

There are households. however, in
which the excellent custom OF after
noon tea Is kept up, year in and year
out; and there are hostesses who make
q practise of serving afternoon tea
regularly on a special at home day
every week. other hostesses who do
not bother about afternoon tea every
day, because Of the press Of more i'm
portant affairs, have standing order
in the kitchen so that when a caller
is being entertained of an afternoon,
a neat maid-without any evident sig
nal OH the part OF the mistress
brings in the tea tray and establishes
it costly, quite as though it were a
custom in that house every afternoon
the year round. This is a pretty hos
pitality that IL rather to be commend

BLANCHE SWEET IN
 THE BLACKLIST"

Although not designed in the form of a propaganda for or against the cause of capital and labor, "The Black list" the most recent Jesse l.. Lasky Feature Play Company production on the Paramoust program, in which Blanche Sweet is the star, probably will create national interest. The theme of this production has its origin in the troubles between oper- ators and miners in Colorado, about two years ago, which resulted in ser ious conflict.
 The deep human note in this theme lies in the fight of labor for the right to work. The economic principles dis cussed are applicable to all lines of industry, and on this account "The Blacklist" should prove of absorbing interest to people of every locality.
 Miss Sweet will have exceptional Opportunities in this production, which was directed by William C. DeMille, who also directed her recent produc- tion, "The Ragamuffin."

 To establish and maintain indoor and outdoor rifle ranges for the use of all able-bodied males capable of bearing arms under reasonable regu- lations to be prescribed by the Ma tional Board of Promotion of Rifle Practice, $300,000 has been appro- priated, also $6O,OOO for the transpor- tation of teams to National matches, and $2,000,000 for the expenses of camps for military instruction and training of citizens.

COMMISSION OF ENGINEERS
 WILL REPORT IN SIX WEEKS

Little Rock, Aug. 21.-The Commits sion of Engineers recently appointed by the government, consisting of c. H. Miller, John R. Fordyce, W. N. Gladson and others, to make a survey of the industrial plants of the state, have been engaged on the work, and will probably be ready to make their report to the government within the next six weeks. It is understood that the purpose of the government is to determine the ability of various kinds of industrial establishments for the manufacture of military munitions. When this is done, contracts will be awarded them of sufficient size to train the workmen along these par ticular lines. The output will be stored for emergency, and in case ot warfare, all the factories would be prepared to turn loose everything else and work effectively for the govern ment. Arkansas plants should be able to secure large proportion of this business.
