so much the better. The school dress
for young girl. shown above, will
look well in either wool or cotton
goods. 1t has plaid skirt and plain
MILDLY blouse, with plaid belt and neck
binding. 1t is as good model for
school wear as one could ask; of a
character that IS guaranteed not to
take the young ladies minds off the
intricacies of square root" "decimals"
or any of the 'ographies."
"Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic"
occupy the school hours of the smaller
girl and play absorbs the balance Of
her waking hours. She rejoiCes in
middies or One-pieCe frocks that do not
interfere with her freedom. A dress
for her school days, shown in the pic
ture. is made of dark colored wool
cloth, with q collar and inset in the
cuffs of lighter cOlored wool, or some
strong color contrast, as red with dark
blue or dark gray. 1t is made with a
straight panel at the front. The SIM
plest sort of pattern Is applied with
narrow braid at the top and bottom Of
the panel Two narrow belts Of the
same material as the dress slip through
cloth slides and are fastened with
buckles at the front.

parent and leave us guessing as to
how blouses are got into.
High-necked blouses are not as
plentiful as others, but they are good
style and favored by matrons, to whom
they prove more becoming than round
or "V"-shaped neck openings. A
georgette blouse with high neck and
long sleeves, at the left Of the two
models pictured, is carefully designed
to prove becoming. 1t has shoulder
yokes to which the body Is gathered
back and front. and narrow plain
vestee with groups of little buttons
set at each side Of 1t. Silk embroid-
cry is responsible for touch of rich
looking decoration, to which scintil-
lating beads are often added in blous-
es for dressy wear.

business. Then another truck dealer
got busy and persuaded another man
to enter the business. A truck dealer
in the city at the other end Of the
line induced a man there to inaugu-
rate line on the same route. Shortly
there were four competitors On the
one line and when the business was
split four times there was not enough
money left to pay gasoline bills.
Commission Needed.
"Had q properly constituted COM
mission been established with the nee
essary authority to grant franchises
and limited the route to two competi-
tors the enterprise would have been
a success. With the franchise there
would naturally go some undertakings
on the part Of the truck owner. For
example, he would have to give
bond to deliver on schedule the same
as the parcel post contractor in any
city, with a penalty attached for fail
ure. Rates would be established by
this commission. A truck owner
should not be compelled to make rates
so low that he can't give good serY-
fee or yet, because of his franchise,
be allowed to charge eXOrbitant rates.

another factor in conducting the rural

An excursion through the shops in
search of new blouses is as intriguing
as an expedition after wild flowers.
Where there is so much variety and
beauty to be found there is an equal
amount of Zest in making selections.
The autumn brought variety In styles,
in materials, in methods of decorating
the new blOuses and, for several rea-
sons, their place in the wardrobe is
increased in importance. One Of these
reasons is the high cost of dressing"
The suit blouse is not confined to tail
ored styles nowadays, but undertakes
to fit suit for many occasions. In
the company of handsome separate
skirt, lovely blouses are able to face
any occasion with assurance.
The overblouse and the smock style
are the important new features in the
seasons showings. In the over
blouse, two materials or two colors
of one material are used to make the
blouse-as crepe georgette over chf-
fon, or net or satin. In the smock
style the blouse has peplum and n
glrdle, as shown in the figure at the
right Of the picture above. This par
ticular model embodes several details
Of the mode in the fiaring sleeves, the
shape Of the neck opening, the silk
cord and tassels forming the girdle.

An onion or two may be put into the

When the question of surface roads
was brought up, Mr.. Morse continued:
Investigation of this subject may
show the desirability, as good roads

the branch line railroads and utilizing
the abandoned roadbed for improved
