this sort of frock seems to be to make
1t as elaborate as possible. Coarse
white net Is used for the tight Slip
Underneath, over which is hung the
drst layer of the outside material.
One elaborate gown shows "a very
skinny underskirt with three small
ruffles of the net placed one above the
other upside down along the bottom.
The embroidered net is used In an
apron drapery for the front of the
skirt and has n very wide sash of ciel
blue satin ribbon running under the
edge of this apron and draping over
the hips TO be tied in a very wide bow
ut the waistline i'm the back. This
sash is SO wide indeed that 1t appears
almost like a hustle of the satin placed
at the back. The bodice Is put to-
gether with wide flet lace and is quite
as elaborate as the skirt, repeating
an embroidered panel In a vestee eff
feet. The sleeves are longer han the
French models but do not come quite
to the elbow.
An Effective Combination.
One Of the effective combinations In
the elaborate type of dress is displayed
| n a gown of white organdie and white
act combined. The net, embroidered
In a very handsome design, forms the
upper part Of the gown. while the or

which is cut In deep points In the
front away from the throat. and edg-
ing the two pockets placed on the front
net panel in the skirt. The short
sleeves are also edged with lace.
No sash Is used on this dress. and
because OF the beauty of the design
and the material none indeed Is
needed. One sees any number of
dresses with the finely tucked side
panels In all sorts of fine cotton ma
terials. As the tucks are as a rule not
more than half an inch wide and are
placed so closely together as almost to
overlap they do not thicken the figure
in spite of the fact that they run
round instead Of up and down.
While the white dress Is the pre-
ferred nov and again one finds a color
combination worthy of pote. as. for
instance, in a soft little one-piece
thing which has the upper part en-
tirely of finest plated chiffon pale
pink In color. The lower part of the
skirt is made Of an embroidered panel
Of net appliqued onto the chiffon and
finished off at the sides and back with
enough of the plain net to give the
needed width. and ;et us note. I'm pass
ing, that skirts are somewhat wider
than the spring first showing predicted.
1t is well known that thin fabrics
are not graceful when skimped and
the tight straight effects must be stu
diously avoided for really good and
graceful results.
Solves q Problem
The use of fine net with other ma
terials this summer solves a problem
Of what to do with the embroidered
panels which come from the Philip
pines, Switzerland or France and
which so often are toe much for q
shirt waist and yet not enough for the
dress. Some of the most pleasing re-
suits obtained are shown by cleveriy

Government Ownership

As have hitherto and frequently remarked within the past year. government ownershihp is dead and will remain dead until all memory of the fiasoo of the last years has faded away, and that will be a long while. Our theory at first that the people would not stand for another experiment long as they remembered the results of the one they are passing through.
 There is still another reason; no party in power will want to assume responsibility for inaugu- rating the experiment again. The republican party never had any inclination to such risk; it's leaders doubtless foresaw the result of the exper- ment, whether it made by the democratic party or the republican party.
 But the democratic party in national matters seldom foresees anything it's vision of that which lies immediately about it is apt to be couded and crooked The administration rushed in where angels feared to tread but do not mean that republicans angels. The democrats mistook the praying of the socalistcslly inclined the voice of people and therefore the voice God. They the silence of the great thinking majority people they construed be the silence of consent and they offered the country of government ownership It taste that will remain in the mouth of the country for generations, to it's great discomfort.
 The democratic party, now, doubtless realizes what the republicans long ago understood that enough troubles to the dominant party without those troubles which come only when invited

T cannot under stand what that soldier who bayoneted me meant he remarked plaintively. There were three of us, Caspar and Max and me. The soldier came run ming at us and we all put our hands in the air up and said 'Kamerad.' But he shot Caspar and Max and put his bayonet into me and then he went running right on. And all he said was, 'Aw. go chase yourselfi' I cannot un- derstand what that soldier should mean" And the officer explained that the Tank had merely remarked that he was in a great hurry.
