1t is the privilege of the bride to
select the style that shall govern in
making the costumes of her maids.
Just how quaint and picturesque the
modes of today allow them to be may
be gathered from the illustration CIV
en- above. This costume looks as if it
might be a faithful copy of style
worn by some demure maid who -four

gown and the bonnet are products of
1916 and, worn together, they testify

SILK Net Is Durable.

Silk nets, expensive. of course, but
more durable than tulle, come in every

out by crinoline or by petticoat, If
they are to stand out; but many wom-

HIGH SCHOOL COACH
STARTS PRACTICE
Football Candidates at Island Park
Veterans Scarce-Instructio in
Preliminary Work.

Coach Diedrich Stolte of the Brat
tleboro high school football squad lost
no time after school opened in getting
candidates together for the squad. He
held his first drill at Island park yes
terday afternoon.
Eleven boys worked as the first squad
and about as many more were worked
cut as the second squad. All of those
in the second squad were very light,
but that is no reason why one or more
of them win not make the first squad
before the practice is many days older.
The veterans were scarce. Edward
Moran, Dunton and Thayer of the reg
ular linemen last year were on hand So
were Plimpton, who played in the line
in some of the games, and Betterley,
who worked in a few contests in the
line last year. Those five were all of
the veterans back yesterday.
The new corners to the squad includ-
cd Justin Moran, younger brother of
Edward; "Podge' Sherman, who saw
service last year on the freshman team
Harry Plumb, younger brother of San
ford Plumb, who is a member of the
University of Vermont squad this fall

Connection with Death of Will

afternoon in connection with the murder
of William Costello, the Holden, Leonard

day night.
During the last a hours the county Off

i'm three automobiles that passed over the
North Bennington road between and -
O'Clock Saturday night. These cars made
| the crossing of the Bennington and North
| Bennington trolley line, near where the
| body of the murdered man was found, IN
! the vicinity of $50 o'clock. The occupants
! of the three cars, seven in all, state that
they saw two men standing on the trolley
track but a few feet from the travelled
| highway.
1t is presumed that the descriptions

tent with the appearance of one or more
of the three Italians under arrest. The
officers have been rounding up all sus

of them in jail.
