RACING STARS
PAY TRIBUTE
TOETTERMAN

One of the most glowing testimoni-
ais ever paid by any racing celebrity
TO a coming champion was paid by
Eddie Rfckenbacher, the famous rae
ing driver and champion on many
tracks. to Red" Fetterman. the win
ner OF three consecutive dealers races
at uniontown Speedway, Pennsylva
MIA,
RiCkenbacHer, who was viewing one
OF the races in which Fetterman was
participating and watching the diff
ferent drivers, early in the race WAS
attracted TO the splendid driving of
Fetterman in a Peerless. Turning to
Ralph De Palma and Oldfield, who
with him were watching from the
pits, Rickenbacher said: "Fetterman
looks like winner to me, He is driv
ing the headiest race of the lot and
knowing the Peerless car that he is
driving, he should turn in a winner"
After the race had been won by
Fetterman, RiCkenbacher, DePalma
Oldfield, Chevrolet and other famous
drivers were the first to congratulate
the plucky Pittsburg boy on his mas
terful handling of the Peerless car
and his good work in bringing in a
three-time winner.
1t is freely predicted by men who
are we'll acquainted with the racing
fraternity, that Fetterman will be
seen at the wheel of some Of Amer
ica's fastest cars in the near future
as good men are always sought after
by the owners Of speed cars, and
Fetterman's three-time winning of
the dealers race at Uniontown stamps
him as a sure chamninn and one who
can be relied upon bring a good car
over the tape first.

VESTS, WOMEN'S NEW HOBBY
They Are So Fashioned That They
May Be Worn With Suits or Not
AS Fancy May Dictate.

A distinctive feature of several of
the new suits is the waistcoat. The
designers have had a forethought to
make that adjunct q separate thing;
that is, the suit itself is so fashioned
that 1t is complete without the vest;
and, on the other hand, the vest itself
may be worn irrespective of the coat.
This arrangement will appeal to
many women, particularly those who
60 in for outdoor athletics. At the
same time 1t does not make the suit
lacking in smart qualities for town
wear. There is another commendable
thing about the waistcoat suit. A
woman may fancy ii at the beginning
of the season and then tire OF Ii after
a little wearing of the garment. Should
this prove the case she may discard
the most conspicuous and colorful fea-
ture thereof and be CARRIED In sober
colors.

Amos SLOWLY DYING OUT
Comparatively Few Remain of His
toric Race of Aborigines Of
Northern Japan.

Investigators call attention to the
Amos. the aborigines of northern
Japan. is slowly dying out. 1t is es-
timated that these residents of Hok-
kaido, the most northerly of the great
islands making up the japanese en-
pire, are now no more than 10000.
The Amos, a dark, picturesque APP
pearing people, live in groups of TWEEN
" TO forty houses in scattered dis
tricts on the island. In spite of cease
less efforts on the part of the central
government and each prefectural gov
eminent in their behalf. which give
them allotted portions of land. provide
them with habitatiOns, give them in
structions in farming and furnish
them with necessary education. they
nevertheless show no sign of benefitiRg
from the care taken of them.
japanese writer's term them an indo-
lent, improvident race and declare that
both men and women are addicted to
drinking and appear to regard any
llllllS uOuc lOT lllelI Dtuelll do d nulS-
ance.
The male Amos pass their time in
hunting and fishing. The women are
described as more industrious. Bear
hunting is the great occupation of the
men, but the bears, like the Amos
themselves, are becoming fewer. The
men have dark hair and long, thick
boards. Hair is sacred TO them. Their
faces are usually tattoOed.
The "bear festival" as it is called,
consists of the Offering of q Slaugh-
tered young bear as a sacrifice to the
gods. The animal is nurtured for
about five years for this specific pur-
pose. On the occasion of the sacrifice
the men and women join in grand ban
quets and merrymaking. The Amos,
like many other primitive people, wor-
ship the sun.

HEM TO BE NARROW
New Skirts Have No looseneSS
Around Ankles.
Some Designers Have Gone Back to
Zouave, But This Is Not Expected
to Win Wide Favor Among
American Women.

Many things are positively settled
concerning the spring fashions, but
the one feature about which there is
no confusion is that the hem must be
narrow, no matter what method is
used to obtain this effect.
Evidently, from the French gowns
that have been shown, there was hest
tation on the part of many of the de-
signers as to the introduction of the
hobble hem. One is not accustomed
to hesitation on the part of the
French where clothes are concerned,
and the exhibition of this quality in
the cutting of the new skirts gives
one a feeling that France is designing
new fashions from what the engineers
call point in the air" She does not
know what women will accept, for she
has none of her usual channels of fash
ion through which to exploit new
ideas. Only one or two of the French
designers have ever been to America,
and their knowledge of the American
woman comes through the smart cos
mopolitan, who is as much at home in
Paris as in New York, Washington or
Chicago. These women dress alike all
over the world. They do not represent
any phase of Americanism and, of
course, they are In the minority.
France made up her mind that she
was to narrow the hem of skirts, but
she wasn't sure enough of her own pO-
sition to throw a few hundred hobble
skirts on the market and let it go at
that. She has, therefore, compromised
in one way or another, but she has not
allowed the narrow hem to escape her
clutches and fly out into the flare of
looseness around the ankles that has
prevailed for two years.
More than one designer has gone
back to the zouave skirt, with its full
ness drawn up to tight lining at the
hem; others, like Georgette, have
gathered the fullness of the skirt into
a cuff hem, which means band that
turns upward and outward. This
hem is often cut into battlementS at
the top, which extend over the full
uSSS VI Tic Shlll Il ulS cllCIl 10 Wei y
good and it has been widely adopted
by the American workers.
There is no return as yet to the
sheath skirt, the kind that shapes it
self into the figure from waist to an
kles. Every skirt shows fullness
either at the waistline or above the
hips, but there is not nearly the full
ness that we have been using in an ex.
travagant manner.
1t is thought by the experts that the
zouave skirt will not last very long
because it has been worn in America
more than France knows and does not
bring anything of freshness or novelty
with it. The skirt which is plated al
the waist and held in by cuff hem sc
that it will not flare is far more tt
our liking.

COMBINATION SUIT Is BACK
an Association of Two Distinct
Fabrics and Colors.

The SO-called combination suit is
TO One-piece garment, but rather to
the association of two distinct fabrics
and colors. Perhaps the idea had its
rise in connection with sports wear,
but one finds it now expressed in
dresses of more or less informal lines,
but far less like the outing garb than
have prevailed during the last two or
three seasons.
For example, there are suits whose
skirts are of white serge and coats
of dark velveteen. And there are
costumes whose skirts are of penciled
striped serge, gaberdiIe or the new
mohair fabric which is known as
satalga and which are topped with
coats of plain cloth or of some knitted
fabric 1t is something of q relief to
anticipate the wearing of suits which
are not intoxicated with a color med
ley or which make one dizzy in their
mad alliance of unhappy colors in
striped, plaided, checked or spotted
designs.
Also it may be recorded that the all
white suit shows signs Of revival. AL
ready it has been worn by women of
unQuestiOnably good taste at the vari-
Gus southern resorts; and with it has
appeared the all-white hat, white foot
wear and other accessories. The one
concession to the cOlOristS is found in
the parasol and sometimes in the belt
which may be of some paralyzing gay
tone or a conglomeration of high colors.

Since narrow box plaits and machine
stitching entered the arena of things
tailored, they have scored many sue
cesses. Plaits, especially when they
are narrow, help the designer In
achieving long lines and are the best
of aids in accomplishing the straight
silhouette.
Both suit coats and separate coats
are made with narrow box plaits set
onto a plain yoke at the line of the
bust. The coat pictured is a fine ex
ample of this plan Of spring styles.
The collar and skirt of the coat are
decorated with parallel rows Of ma
chine stitching.
