SKIRTS DROPPED. TO ANKLES
New Type Of Garment Said to Be 40
eepted With More Than Usual
Enthusiasm.

The skirts Of suits are both narrow
and short, and the women who ap
peared on the street in them without
leggings or high shoes created some
unpleasant criticism.
But just when we are accepting with
enthusiasm this continued style Of
short and narrow garments, notes o
fashion critic, the prophets say that
the real French skirts are growing
longer. And the smart American de
slgners say the same. They are max
ing the garments slim, without using
nm inch of surplus material, but they
are dropping them to the ankles, omit
ting the leggings and the high boots
and coming back to the hat-heelet
pumps with broad ribbon bows across
the vamp.
Three or four of the best houses EN-
phasize these skirts, and those who
are tired of the brevity Of the skirts
we have worn for years are accepting
ibis new type Of garment with more
than the usual enthusiasm. If It hat

Judging from the new arrivals In

of abdicating In favor Of the panels

The tunic redeems the adOrcd straight

which might be of any of the supple
silk fabrics, there Is tunic across
the front and sides with three wide
tucks across the bottom that gradu-
ate Its length. The underskirt takes
no heed of the long skirt mandate, be-
ing less than ankle length. The bodice
opens over vestee Of white geOrgette

Is outlined with beads ana they are

Assumed Responsibility Early.
AS a boy General Pershing. his sis

pernment, assuming, as the Oldest Of
six children. many Of the responsible
ties Of the family.
"John." Mrs. Butler said, although
Of quiet disposition, liked a good
time and enjoyed fun as much as any
one. Yet when he started anything he
wanted to get the result, and he gen
orally attained that object before he
gave It up"
After having been graduated from
West Point and having served with
General Miles In a campaign in New
Mexico against the Indian chief Ge-
ronlmo. Pershlng was stationed as mil
ltary instructor at the University Of
| Nebraska. His friends there remem-
bcr him as fun-loving young man,
who enjoyed music and dancing, par
ties and other social activities and who
appreciated good Joke.
"Old Jack Best" the veteran trainer
nj the university, remembered Per
shlng intimately. HE was one Of the
finest men that ever worked with"
said Mr.. Best. ITS true he was mighty
strict with his work. but the results he
got were so good that everybody he
worked with loved him for 1t. When
he was here we had a regiment the
university could be proud Of.
Usually he was mighty dlgnified in
his work, but he had way of getting
next to new men," continued Mr.. Best.
''The iirst time ever saw him he

them,"' said Mr.. Best. ut had been
ktheir habit before that time to come to
drill with shoes blnckencd or not, Just
as they pleased. When Pershing took
hold the first thing he looked at was
TO see that all shoes were well blacked
and that the heels looked as good MS
the toes. He was just that thorough
going in everything all the time. He
was AL in every way, and you can ask
anyone who knew him If that isn't the
gospel truth"
Odd as 1t may seem In fighting

Concerning the Tussoek Moth.

The New York state college of for
estry at Syracuse has recently sent out
q circular letter to chambers Of COM
merce throughout the state warning
against the ravages of the tussock
moth. which bid fair to be severe on
shade trees during the next growing
season. The egg masses, which are
white and conspicuous, may be seen
readily at the present time on the
bank of elms particularly. and these
may be collected and destroyed or
daubed with creosote so that they will
not hatch. The college in its letter
has suggested that local shade tree or
park commissions take the matter OF
destroying the egg masses in hand at
once and push II vigorously.
