new STYLES SHOWN
AT FALL OPENING

Surrounded by appropriate autumn
settings, extensive displays of fall
styles were viewed by hundreds of
women at the formal fall opening of
the Palais Rolay today.
All the trimmings are in keeping
with the French styles which are on
display. French backgrounds made
of lattice work and autumn leaves
have been placed in the show win
dows.
The cynosure of all eyes in the west
window is an evening gown adorned
with bead representation of peacock.
This gown represents the type which
has attracted much attention recently
in New York society circles.
Show coIored Coat
A cytun colored coat with heavy
fur trimmings which is very expensive
and which was especially hard to get
because of the dye shortage, is the
feature of the east window display.
Large ferns and palms are properly
distributed in such way to make the
inside very attractive
Although the opening was announc-
ed for today only, the trims will re-
main as they are for the remainder of
the week.

SOUTH SIDE DROPS
HIGHWAY PETITION

Upon recommendation of John Me
woehner, chairman of the road COM
mittee, the South Side improvement
association at special meeting last
night, decided to drop the matter of
the Adolph Blickwedel and John Me
woehner petitions for improvement of
south end streets under the Three
Mile Road law. "Reminiscences bear
ing many more signatures than the
original petitions were filed with the
commissioners Saturday.
1t was thought that perhaps the
dropping of the road petitions would
assist in getting an appropriation for
a South G street bridge.
