Variety Pays Best, Hence the Lack
of Coordination-One May Draw
Something Old or New

TT might be said that the French
frocks show novelties more than
novelty. Few Of the gowns are
commonplace. Each and all Of them
show surprising features.
They introduce old ideas. but these
are wrapped up In new coverings.
They are sugar coated pills in some
cases. One thing Is quite true: that
peace shows the same wide range Of
styles that prevailed during war. 1t
was thought by the observers who
watched fashions following in the
footsteps of political events that the
designers would combine on some un-
usual and possibly an eccentric type
OF dress. Those who study fashions
and those who buy and sell them have
stood on tptoe since the first OF Feb
ruary, so that they might be better
enabled to sec the shadow OF coming
events lengthening itself over the
horizon.
AS far as the French exhibitions
are concerned. no unusual or eccen-
trio style OF dress has been launched
that would indicate a general move
ment toward something new. II is
quite evident to the buyers and the
writer's that there has been little con-
sultation among the designers Of Paris
as to the introduction Of decided new
movement In apparel. This was what
was expected; this has not happened.
II may be that we look back upon
history-that is, the history OF ap-
parel--as n complete thing, and do not
see the monthly changes ana individ-
ual variations that happened at that
time. We look back upon II now as
from an airplane. not seeing much
except the large grouping of special
features. Possibly, during the epochs
which we consider as supreme in dress
movements, there was the same un-
certainty OF line. the same lack Of
coordination that we observe to-day
in the new clothes which the prophets
thought would proclaim a significant
change in women's apparel.
No Lack of Caprice.
Mind you. there is no lack OF sensa-
tionalism in the new clothes. They
fairly reek with the kind Of features
that attract attention. encourage
criticism. bring out protest. But as a
whole the effort reminds one Of a
grabbag at a church fair. You pay
money. put your hand into a mass OF
things and bring out something new

bies His first experience In the latter
line was in 1905, when he did mile in
81 seconds. At Daytona, Florida. the
other day, he did mile in less than
half the time, 24.02 seconds. or practi-
caliy two and half miles min
ute. These records are not exactly conf
parable officially, because the speed of
1908 was made on n dirt track with

when individualism lis rampant, variety
Is the catchword OF the season, No
shop can lay down the law by saying
to its customers: This. madam, and
this alone, is the new thing"
When a shop can say that there are
fifty new gowns, each Of which stands
alone In originality and brilliancy, then
the shop has a slogan that calls I'm the
crowd. When one feature stands out
conspicuously as the sole and dominat-
ing feature OF the season II can be
reckoned on that a thousand women
will be disguised with II and insist that
such caprice is not for them.

Jam Instead Of Honey
To Result From Bee Raid
Upon Preserving Plant

PENN YAM. n. Y. July So
Jam in the comb is the delicacy
that farmers hereabouts will en-
joy next winter as the result Of a
new stunt on the part Of bees in
the apiaries on local estates, 1t is
declared today.
Credit for the discovery goes to
Norris S. Daley, who owns a
large orchard IN the northern end
of the village. While removing
the honey from his hives he saw
that, many of the combs were
filled with a pink substance.
Closer investigation disclosed
that instead of honey 1t was rasp-
berry jam. but minus the seeds.
The jam came from a preserv-
ing plant more than half a mile
from Dailey's home. the Penn Yam
bee fancier found. Swarms OF
bees and hornets have invaded
the plant during the last week,
robbing the uncovered jam jars
of their sweets, and on occasions
driving the working stan from
the factory.
