Pride of the Home Owner.

'That little place yonder, in the
blossoms, where trees wave welcome
that's my home"
It is the true home maker-the real
home lover-who says that, coming
from the days tasks, with all the pride
of home ownership.
And that is the pride that's felt by
the thousand owners of the homes of
city streets, or the little home places
that help brighten city borders where
a greener world begins, remarks the
Atlanta Constitution.
It's the pride of proprietorship-
life's happiness summed up in brief
sentence: THAT'S my homer
Business enterprise builds cities,
but it builds them around homes.
"a city of homes" is the phrase that
awakens interest everywhere. And
the age of ownership is coming to be
the wonder of the time, with youth
looking providently to the future
planning for it, working for it, with
all youths hope and strength!
The humblest shelter may hold hap
piness enough if the one who walks
the way that leads to it can say, in
the hearts pride: "That's my home y

WRAP AND SCARF
Fur Coates and Capes for Wear
With One-Piece Gowns.
SeasonabIe Dresses Built on Lines
That Form Admirable Back
ground for Peltry.

For wear with the one-piece gown
furriers are providing an attractive lot
of coatees, short wraps and scarfs.
The street gown of the season is
built on such simple lines and in such
rich fabrics that 1t forms an admir-
able background for a jaunty little
wrap or a graceful scarf of luxurious
fur.
Velvet, duvetyn or gabardine are the
fabrics used for the modish street
frock, which is built on the simplest
lines. Duvetyn in neutral shades and
occasionally in green, sapphire blue or
Pompeian red is fashioned into expen-
sive frocks on which embroidery may
play small or large part, or they
may be guiltless Of trimming beyond
a binding of matching grosgrain rib
bon.
The velvet gown is also prOcurable
in color, but is easily more effective
and beautiful in black, as often as not
without a vestige Of trimming. A bit
of color is sometimes introduced al
the girdle or about the neckline. In
one black velvet dress this takes the
form of a rope of floss silk in coral
which is fastened by means of couch
ing stitch to the fabries
A few of the street gowns have the
novel touch of high collars and there
are long sleeves, but not on the same
model. In many instances the hip
line is built out by means of cart
ridge plaits or by setting on the skirt
fullness in a series Of larger loops.
To wear with these frocks out OF
doors there are very short fur jack
cts, a bewildering number of little
wraps which are neither coat nor cape
but q sort of link between the two, a
variety of capes in the proper sense
of the term, collars which are so large
as to make it doubtful whether they
are collars or capes, and splendid
straight scarfs of great length and
width as we'll as those of more mod
crate size.
1t must be said that the little fur
coatees are distinctly youthful gar
ments designed expressly for the slim
and graceful girl.
/ They have a shortening and broad
ening effect on the figure which is not
desirable for the wide-hipped woman
! She would make a much more salts
| factory investment in one of the long
straight scarfs or the irregular capes
The short fur jacket often has 8
loose back and a belted front or is
/ loose all round and one short model
has a pinched-in waist with rippleo
peplum quite in the manner of long
ago.

American Shoes in China.

American shoes are in high favor
among all classes of Chinese. The av-
erage native, however. is unable to
secure them because of the high prices,
and is obliged to content himself with
cloth footgear, or with very poor imi-
tations of the American style of shoes.
Leather shoes are only for the
wealthy. Practically all of the high
grade leather imported into China for
use in shoes comes from the United
States. while the lasts are made IN
Japan and are copies of staple Ameri-
can STYLES.

Since Mr.. Coles, in his statemrnt

through the nomination of Congressman
Moore for Mayor. Town Meeting
workers have been insisting that they.
at any rate. we're alive and demanding
