Separate Skirts Have Graceful Lines.

At it's best the newest separate skirt is emfnent1y chic and sensible as well. The extra touches embodied in drape- Fiess applied stttchfngs. etc. add to it's value because they give a dressy ef- most informal occasions. The, model shown here is a three-piece skirt with cascade drapery at the sides. It is gathered at the front and laid in deep pleats at the back, the adjustment be- ing effected at the side
 In medium size the skirt requires 3X yards 44-inch material. In cutting the design. the back gore and piecing for front gore must be laid on an open width of material, as shown in the cut ting guide. The front gore, which is marked by triple "TTT'' perforations ts placed on a lengthwise fold, while the stay. having one '',T'' on the edge is placed on 1engthwise or a crosswise fold. If the skirt is desired in shorter length. cut off from lower edges of gores or turn a hem the desired amount.
 There is no denying the fact that the draped skirt is a trying one for many figures. yet some of it's difficulties may be overcome by not oVeraecentliating the breadth at the sides. Youthful and slender figures wear it admirably. how ever. The new seasons. styles are so charnafng1y varied. though. that the wise woman discreetly passing by 1n- becoming designs. finds many others that will become her figure and be ex- ceedingly Tnodfsh at the same time.
 The materials most used for separa- rate skirts are gabardine broadcloth, serge. veile. ,taffeta and faille.

Syracuse, March 2-No greater tri-
butte was ever paid a President of the
United States or more impressive ex-
hibition of patriotism provided than
at the unofficial state convention of
the democratic party last evening.
Resolutions expressing the fullest
confidence in woodrow Wilson and
recommending his reorganization were
adopted with a great deal more en-
thusiasm than Tammany, which was
in control, usually displays.
A splendid Endorsement made nota-
BILE a speech of thrilling periods that
provoked tumu1tuous approval for the
President and, in part, for former
Gov Martin H. Glynn, who delivered
the speech with patriotic fervor.

OF equal importance was the unmis-
taxable sentiment expressed by the
leaders of the party that congress
stand by the President in his defense
of American rights and against the
violation of them by any foreign
power.
Tammany Leader Murphy, appear
ing in a new role as champion of a
President whose first nomination ne

act of disloyalty to the country.
He received assurances that every
one of the 10 Democratic votes in the
lower House would be found on the
side of the President in any test that
his opponents might raise.
The following Delegates at Large
to the st. Louis Convention were
named:
