No, you are not in the far isles of the Pacific when you hear thus ma teria1ly of a modish costume. You are right in the way of draft from Paris fashion.
 Of henna brown duvetyne is the foundation of this dress. The per- fectly plain blouse has fringe-trimmed neck and sleeves Then where the blouse leaves off, the gorgeously deep silk fringe begins and reaches to the bottom of the skirt. The rectangular fashion in which it is knotted at top, adds much to the appearance of the whole costume. Of course, the fringe exactly matches the shade of the duvetyne. 'Twould make a fascinat- ing costume for afternoon tea

Hardly, in shop or on avenue, could you find a more luxurious coat than this one of gorgeously soft peach bloom. It is of the richest of royal blues and the richness of it is accen- uated by the ample collar and deeP cuffs of possum.
 With slightly high and rather close waist, it flares out with circular full ness upon the sides to give a wide skirt. A coat such as this may be luxury to possess but it really com pines utility, for it will appear equal ly favorable upon the street or at the opera

(Answer.) The only way in which real desirable weight may be added is by improving the digestion and as- simiIation of food and by taking more of this than is absolutely neces- sary to supply the requirements of the system and the energy required for the daily work. As a matter of fact you are not under weight for your height. Compound Gentian will stimulate the secretion of the fluids which are necessary for the per formance of proper digestion. Starch es should make up a large part of the diet and plenty of fliuds should be taken, although it is better to take them between meals. Milk strippings are a useful addition to the diet, as they contain a large proportion of fat. Take them night and morning to the amount of one to two pints fresh and warm. If the work is hard, this

 ''The latest good thing to come to it is the new lumber enterprise headed by C. E. Mayerhoff, of Pachuta, Miss. He owns a tract of pine timber of seven or eight thousand acres between Leeds and Pelham. It is estimated to have a cut ting capacity of sixty million feet or more"
 The deal was closed by me on Satur- day by which he came into possession of the Judge Wilson place. with the fine old historic residence. built before the war and called the 'Balsey Moore place. It has Il acres situated between the two railroads"
 Already the Central of Georgia and the Southern are rushing in spur tracks to handle the machinery for the saw and blaming mills, the dry kilns, etc. Several cars of ties have been unloaded. and the work is to go on as rapidly as possible"

 And some think that the man who re- wolves that little iron rod to let you pass has an easy job. Suppose you stand there with him for a few minutes and you will change your mind.
 Some days it is rain, others beaming hot sunshine, and in any and all kinds of weather he stands there, endeavoring to make the passage way safe and avoid collisions from what might be reckless driving, or pedestrians crossing the street with their minds hundred miles away.
 You sometimes fume and say why doesn't he lift the embargo on passing and let me by" Stop and think mo- ment that he is there all day, that he is working for your safety and that your cooperation is necessary to keep him in a good humor.

EDUCAT|ONF|LM VERY INSTRUCTIVE Building of Cars and Liberty Motors Shown at the
 Colonial

Everybody today either owns a motor car or expects to own one some day. Almost everybody can speak the lan- guage" But the knowledge of the gen eral public with reference to motor cars is largely confined to what the motor car will do in business or family serv- ica
 There is another side to the motor car that is just as wonderful-indeed, even more wonderful to many people-and that is the manner in which it is built up from ores and alloys, cloth and rubber. wood and leather, into an energetic, un- tiring, faithful servant with more than human endurance, and almost living in it's response to the wishes of it's driver
 A series of five educational features, recently adopted by the United States government in it's educational work, will be presented today and tomorrow at the Colonial theater, showing how motor cars are built by one of the largest builders of motor cars. Beginning with the raw materials, the progress of the different parts is shown through the foundry, the drop forge hammers, the various heat treating. machining and grinding depart ments. until finally the machine runs off under it's own power. complete to the last detail
 Nothing is sighted to make this series complete, even to laying bare the mystic operations of the analytical chemists. the metallurgists and the intricate testing apparatus in the physical and electrical la boratories.

ENDING OF STRIKE NOW RESTS WHOLLY
 W|THMR. BURLESON
By Associated Press


 Chicago. June t6----Termina ton of the nationwide strike of commercial teieGrBphers. union officials declared tonight. now rests almost wholly in the hands of Postmaster General Burle. son. They stated. after reading reports from the American Federation of Labor convention, that definite statement from Mir. Burleson concerning the scope of the order to electrical work CTS would be awaited before any move is made.
 Officers of the Commercial Telegraph CTS union of America said if the postmas- ter generals order granting the right of collective bargaining to electrical workers actually covered the striking telegraph CTS, steps probably would be taken to end the waIkout after assurances of no unfair discrimination against the strikers had been obtained.
 But In the meantime we shall con- tinue plans for a finish fight, fight for the same rights that have been ex- tended the electrical workers" s. J. Konenkamp, international president of the telegraphers union, told a meeting of strikers here tonight.
 He reiterated that the strike Is spread ing and now includes nearly 25,000 per sons and declared the order for railroad telegraphers to refuse to handle commer- cial business had clogged channels to scores of smaller towns throughout the country.
 The Western Union Telegraph company, on the other Hand, denied that commer- cial business was being greatly delayed and issued this bulletin from the Chi cago office tonight:
 Situation in all offices practically un- changed. There was some interruption from railroad telegraphers who are un- aware of the true situation. The in- formed ones think 1t unfair and are handling business"
 The bulletin added that Jacksonville. Fla, the storm center of the south and southeast, reported normal conditions and that the strike of Postal Telegraph oper- ators in Detroit also had been declared off.
 An officer Of the Association of Vest ern Union employees went to St. Louis to- day to confer with officers of the Order of Railroad Photographers in an effort to have the order against handling com nercial business on railroad wires re- scinded. E. J. Manon, head of the rail- road telegraphers, had asked whether the Association of Western Union em- ployes was a union organization and so recognized by unionsts," when he was asked in telegrams to revoke the order.
 In a number of cites electrical workers and few telephone operators walked out today in accordance with a strike order recently sent out by the Interna- tional Brotherhood of Electrical Work CTS. The strike order was rescinded Sat urday after concessions had been granted by the postmaster general. It was ex- plained at headquarters of the brother hood in Springfield, Ill.,, that these walk outs were due to delayed messages call ing off the strike.
 J. G. Luhrsen, president of the Amer ican Train Dispatchers' Association, an- nounced definitely tonight that the 5000 members of that organization will not handle commercial business while the strike is in progress.
