From top to toe, Milady of Fashion

SILVER dS WOulQ QdZZl9 me eyes OF
Cinderella
The use Of heavy silk so richly bro
caded with threads of silver or gold
as to render the material almost like
metal cloth has resulted in a new
short but richer close-fitting straight
lined skirt, hung in the back with a
fiat narrow train, hardly more than a
great broad SASH or the whole skirt
is stiffly draped, with a little fuIlness
at the back and sides, but kept mar
row around the bottom. This whole
question Of skirts, by the way, prom
lses to be interesting pretty soon.
There is a suspicious hint of tight
ness and a decided line of fuIlness at
the knees or higher up, which leaves
one wondering what the new line will
be.
The length of skirts stays about
the same, or perhaps creeps lust an
inch in the. general direction of shoe
tops. Rest assured they do not seem
to go far below that, and the observ-
er along the avenue counts herself
fortunate indeed if most of them
reach that far.
Many women seem to imagine
fashion demands that they leave an
ugly little strip of neutral territory
below the hem of the skirt and above
the top Of the boot.
After a nOtOUs wandering in the
field of color, shoes have managed to
come as near to finding a stopping
place at the new dark shades of
brown as anywhere. Lighter shades
of brown also are popular and

limiting the alcoholic content of beer

In fact, the beer consumers of the
United States have been drinking the

Secretary Hugh T.. Fox of the United

10 make u statement on this fact soon.
The majority of the brewers, II was

exceeded three and quarter per cent

Nearly threc-fourthS of the kcg

contained less than 3 per cent alcohol.

I'VE are willing to brew beer with
less than per cent. Results show that
since 1t has been marketed ii meets

will have a more apprcciablc effect.

Close to the quarter post on the
southwest corner of the speedway a
board had been loosened, presuma bly,
by the wind, and it was this which
caused Haynes car to turn into .ho

again ON its side only to fall back
Haynes was thrown from his seat
grabbed at Cohan and jerked him from

"Hutchison saw the accident in time
to turn to the outside and, without
slackening his record breaking pace
shot to :he east end of the track. As
he reached the turn the machine
skidded in the soft dirt and he lost
control. AS the front end struck the
fehce the momentum carried the car
completely over. end to end, and both
