layoh for punching an umpire.

The Universal Automobils,

The Younger generation is largely
Aeoefiting by the by the almost uni-
vsrssl use Of the automobile. Schools
tSb Ar removed for the day pupil OF a
decade ago. are now made available %
ne children Of families living two and
tAree miles distant, and through the
motor bus transportation facilities at
forded by the boards OF many cities,
supplemented by the efforts OF those
parents who own cars, the number OF
school buildings necessary may be re-
ouced and the work required IN the
construction, maintenance and man
agement Of a number of small eduoa-
tional organizations can be oonccntrat-
ed with maximum efficiency on the
larger plant.
So necessary has the passenger car
become in the daily lives OF the com
munity that there are thousands OF
business men whose cars would be OF
value to them during office hours, but
who realize the efficient use Of them
rade at home and who, therefore, take
the tfain or trolley to the office and
transact their business either on foot
Or by car or taxicab. 1t would seem
therefore, that the highest efficiency
would call for an increase in the pro
duction and sale OF the passenger car

had depended for = century or more
as Marie Antolnet,e did, upon inc
assembling Of trimming to give the
correct shape and the becoming color
II was very easy to listen to a lecture
on choosing hat so that each feature
could be brought out and paying ioI
IL the price demanded by a skilled
worker and artist but women could
not apply the lecture to their practical
lives However, perseverance won ou',
and the plain hat became the master
hat OF the day.
The youngsters who disport them
selves in the newest finery and the
last silhouette OF the moment, do not
know that only few years back, lhe
plain hat which they wear as the ao-
ccpled thing, was an outcast IRON
society.
II seems strange that this discussion
is raised sgain--trimning versus sim
pliclty--yct, here We arc IN the throes
of it. Whyl Because the milllners
have flowers and feathers and bits Of
garnishing on hand and they want to
Introduce this kind OF fashion.
Using the Ornate Band,
Plumes and quilts and feathers are
creeping in. Flowers are still in the
background. The preference over all
other trimming is the ornate, brilliant
band usrd around the crown OF a hat
Il is made of splendid brocade or
Chinese ribbon, and sometimes oi tiny
ostrich feathers worked into a fragile
ladder
The hat with the large brim, which
Is now worn at res Irant dinners and
suppers where there is no dancing,
carries the great, broCadcd crown band
better than any other shape As far
as fashion has gone for trimming, the
majority Of women look askRnee at
a hat that Is thus loaded down with
finery, but the milliners insist that as
time goes on we will give a more cor,
dial reception TO hat accessories and
consider the fringed crown band quite
simple indeed, =
The hat which is shown in the
sketch Is big enough to have created
a storm Of critisicm at any othe'
epoch, but no one seems 10 have tint
or opportunity to cavil at the fash
ions today. The critics are all en-
gagged in attacking more importan
measures
The brim Of this black satin ha
sweeps out to elongated points on eacl
! side, for it is expected Of all hat sil
! houettes that they show more breadtl
crosswise than lensthwse The crow
OF this hat is quite high, and the gor
gcaus scarf around it is of gold an
blac% brocade, forming streamer a
one side that is edged with deep blac|
and gold fringe
II is said that France drew the in
spiration for this hat from our pic
turesQue Western life.
