The New Sport Coats.

The sketch that is shown today in green
and white Jersey gives one the impress
sion that the sweater, with all its popu-
larity, has become a bit too informal for
certain kinds of country life. This coat
is of the silk Jersey. but its manner Of
making. it's appearance Of being a. gar
ment fit for the street and its ornament
al touches of green embroidery Instantly
raise 1t above the social rank OF a
sweater.
The short skirt that goes with this coat
has a deep band Of green leaves at the
bottom. done in several shades Of green
silk, and this cucumber touch is carried
out in the hat, which has a green crown
and a piping Of silk in the same color at
the edge Of its faring white brim.
Embroidery is in first fashion. which Is
a piece of news that some women may
like who are idle. 1t is usually done with
a coarse silk thread in loose. Chinese
stitch, which gives a maximum effect
with minimum effort.

Green and White Sport Suit.

France has been told repeatedly that
the American climate is too hot for the
people to indulge in the kind of midsum

to dignity and elegance, so she Is send

things that, in her opinion, cater to this
far-famed heat.
She has designed green and white mus

and linen frocks undyed. with belts. col
lar and buttons of pale green.
She has sent over blouses in this same
tone of fresh, young green. that are to
be worn with plain white linen skirts or
with linen suits; and now there comes
an exceptionally good looking sport suit
made of cucumber green, silk Jersey with
bands of white embroidered in green.

COOL COLOR SCHEME FOR SUMNER.

and thereby do a charitable act by max
ing him feel that a breath from some
whhere in the north has come floating
into the heated strata?
Cool as white is to wear and to OBJ
serve. there Is still a more fragrant cool
ness added to it by a touch of glimmering
green. Women should study these things,
the relation of colors to heat and cold.
although they cannot take the people Of
the tropics as an example.
Asia, Africa and India in their hottest
quarters produce a people whose desire
for centuries has been to wear the most
vivid colors; and what the humans do,
the animals are assisted to do by nature.
Why all this is true is too deep and
exhaustive a subject for the mere pratt
tier on current fashions: but, the preach
ing of the artists aside, the American
woman in hot climates should wear the
costumery that makes her seem as invit.
ingly cool as the lodge in the garden OF
cucumbers, for which the biblical writer
so ardently sighed.

FORECASTS MODIFICATION OF
ACT PASSED BY LEGISLATURE
LAST JANUARY

Oklahoma City, Sept. From fif-
teen 10 twenty state banks will liquid
ate and as many more will nationaiize
within the next twelve months unless
the anti-usury law, passed last Janu-
AIRY. is modified by the next !egisla-
lature in the opinion Of j. ID. Lank-
ford. state bank commissioner.
The law has now been in operation
seven months and two state banks
have quit business; two haze nation
allied and two consolidated, while
only two new ones have been char-
tered, according to Mr.. Lankforl.
"The state banks are wilIng to op-
crate under a reasonable usury law
that Will apply with like force TO both
state and national banks, but the
present law is too stringent and too
discriminatory in its operltion,' said
Mr.. Lanhord.
The provisions of the law DO not
apply to national banks which are sub
icct to federal regulation, and this in
effect is discrimination against state
banks.

A Great American
Naval Victory

TT was eight O'clock and the full moon lit
up the scene. Jones brought up his ma
Il rines, and by a sustained musket fire kept
Pearson from dsengaging the Scraps. One of
his men, hearing that Jones had been killed,
ran up to haul down the flag and surrender.
The flag had been shot away and the coward
called for quarter. Jones knocked him down.
Captain Pearson at the cry called out to Jones
asking if he had surrendered. 81 have not yet
begun to fight" was the reply that flashed back.
Then the tide of battle turned. An American
sailor climbed out on the main yard of the Scraps
and threw a hand grenade which fell into
mass of cartridges on the main deck. A terri
flying explosion Immediately resulted Panic
seized upon the British, and finally, at half past
ten o'clock, Pearson struck his coors.
With this battle John Paul Jones leaped into
immortality.
