There will be no danger of this. it was said by silver authorities, until bar silver climbs to Sl.2o an ounce.
 The high price of silver is attribut- ed here to both an increased demand and decreased production. The chief increase in the demand is said to be to enlarged use of the metal for world coinage caused by the withdrawal of gold for circulation and the substitu- ton of silver for it.
 At the same time producing cen ters all over the world have suffered ., curtailment of output Mexico. due to internal conditions, is producing only 40 per cent of its normal sup ply, 1t was said, while in the United States there has also been a reduc- ton.

ned. A very fashionable and exceed ingly pretty idea is to have pale pink silk slip under dress of white or cream-colored net, lace flouncing, or any of the transparent materials requiring foundations. This founda- tion is not entirely plain, but may be trimmed with rows of pale blue rib bon or small chiffon flowers arranged in cluster.
 The Important Girdle
 Circles are very important feat ure of frocks this year and conse- quently there are many styles from which to choose. The long, narrow, beaded girdles are particularly pretty with frocks of Georgette or chiffon. With net, organdy and voiie dresses, soft girdles of wide ribbon are most effective. There are number of ways in which they may be arranged. Some are caught in loops at the right or left side, other are wound around the waist, brought to the center front, and arranged in loose knot with the ends hanging down the length of the skirt. Frequently the ends of ribbon girdles are finished with silk fringes. Bead fringes or tassels usually finish the ends of those girdles made of the dress materials, when of crepe de Chine, Georgette crepe, or chiffon.
The Coconino sun., 1917-06-01
Styles Are Very Girlish

The styles of the dresses are very girlish, and the trend of simplicity which characterizes most of the fash ions today is even more accentuated in youthful frocks.
 An example of the beauty of ex- treme simplicity is seen in the frock of organdy in the first sketch. Just sheer organdy and a tiny picot edge of fine lace-nothing more-fashions this dainty frock. It is completed by an underbodice of lace and crushed girdle of soft ribbon. The waist is made with body and sleeves in one and a surplice front, and the skirt is cut to give the effect of the oval sil- houtte.
 Bolero Frock of Georgette and Filet To many girls the dress of Georget- te with bolero of allover lace shown in the second sketch, will prove quite irresistible. In style and development it has the note of individuality which never fails to attract. Although in one-piece style, the deep yoke-belt lifts it above the usual style of other one-piece frocks.
 Sleeves are both long and short. The short sleeves range anywhere from the tiny puffs to the lengths reaching slightly below or slightly above the elbow.
 White silk hose and white kid pumps, it is hardly necessary to say,
 
 necessary to complete the graduation dress.
 As to accessories, spangled gauge fans and filmy chiffon or tulle scarfs are among the most important. Some of the chiffon scarfs are decorated with beads at the ends. Others are printed in soft, delicate colors.

Biggest Locomotive in World.

Popular Science Monthly The great
est steam locomotive in the world has
been put into service by the Baldwin
Locomotive works. 1t is so gigantic
that its boiler had to be made flexible
at three different joints 80 that the To-
connective could turn around a curve. 1t
is over 100 feet long and weighs some
42O tons. Twentyfour driving wheels,
each standing as high as an average
size man, afford il traction. The driv-
ing wheels are distributed along the
length Of the locomotive in sets Of four
pairs, the wheels Of each set being
coupled together and driven by two
giant steam cylinders. Under full steam
the locomotive can exert an eighty-three
ton pull on the cars behind (which
means that it can easily haul freight
two miles long and $4,000 tons in weight
over an ordinarily good roadbed at an
average rate Of about fourteen miles an
hour, and possibly more. Bad roads will
retard II only slightly.

COUNTERFEIT UNIFORMS.

Chicago Tribune The craze for uni
forms has become virulent among those
who are not soldiers and do not intend
to be soldiers Doormen, elevator boys
and chauffeurs are all putting on khaki
In their regaIia they are hard to dis
tinguish from officers and enlisted men.
We believe this indiscriminate use
of uniforms closely resembling the mill
tary pattern should be stopped. 1t is
a penal offense to make any representa-
ton of our currency, but it appears
that non-combatants can rig themselves
out in imitation of our fighting men
with impunity.
Companies employing uniformed men
should insist on patterns and colors
that are easily distinguishable from the
soldier uniform. The action of the
North Side Motor Bus company in hay
ing the uniforms Of its employees dyed
green is to be commended.
The government would also do well
to limit carefully the privilege OF wear
ing the regulation military costume. As
general rule it should be limited
strictly to our soldiers and sailors. 1t
is ridiculous to grant the privilege to
civilians who are doing civilian duty.
