The robbery became known about Z

SOCIETY WOMEN STUDY ART
aVowed idea Is to Develop American
Style in Dress and Home
Furnishings.

Young women well known in society
zave entered art schools this autumn
for the purpose of studying interior
decoration and costume designing,
says the New York Times.
Some of them are to use their knowl-
edge in the adornment of their own
homes or in giving individuality to
Eheir own wardrobe, while others in
1eud 10 embark ON professional ca
reers. Their attention has been drawn
50 this new phase of activity largely
through the European war, for they
see before them opportunities of devel-
oping American tastes and American
ideals in both fashions and in the fur
nishing of their homes.
Frank Alvah Parsons, the director
of the New York School of Fine and
Applied Art, said recently that in
svery direction this fall women OF
'weIl-known New York families were
showing their interest in practical
work along artistic lines to degree
which he had never known. This was,
IN mis- opinion, due to the many
changes which were developing from
che European conflict and the wish to
find a substitute for merely social &C
Eivities.
Other schools where the practical
arts Of decoration are taught are also
r receiving students of social promi-
hence from foreign countries as well.
This is due 10 the fact that the oppor'
-unities for study in Paris and other
European art centers have been cut
on by the conditions which now pre-

FERTILIZER OF GREAT VALUE
Experiments Show That Radium-Bear-
ing Coal, "Lignaite," Materially In
cre5ScS c. owtii of Plants.

Experiments conducted by Pro-
fessor Bottomley with specially-pre-
pared peat have shown that valuable
aids to plant life are contained in
that product; but still more striking
are said to have been the results Sc
cured by the employment of "ligna-
ite."
This is the Misunderstanding coal
discovered by the French chemists.
NM. Detaile and Lafayaise, and
Prof. Barton Scammell, NJ. S. c. L.
of Hadleigh, in Essex, England.
Particulars are being sent to all APP
plicants who are interested in agri-
culture.
A crop of Indian corn grown this
season in County Kerry, Ireland, in
soil treated with 'lignaite," attained
a height of nearly nine feet. Rad
ishes, as described in a recent lee
ture before the Royal Society of
Arts, were grown in half the usual
time and of very greatly increased
size.
As the 'lignaite" is found in all
British coal mines, and is low in
cost, its use by every agriculturist is
made possible. 1t is interesting to
note that peat and coal are closely al
lied, and contain all the vital and
necessary constituents Of plant
growth.
