CHANGE PEASANT HEADGEAR.

Paris, March 6-Peasant girls of France are more than ever abandon ing the close fitting native headgear, to wear which they had to have their tresses cut. In rural France there is a widespread movement for the adop- ton of the ''towny'' style, which, if less picturesque. makes for the pre- servation of wonan's chief glory.
 This fact, coupled with the total disa ppearance from the market of Chinese hair, from which the cheaper grades of switches and tails used to be made, renders false hair ex- tremeIy expensive in France. There are no more so-called hair fairs held in France nowadays" says a proni- nent hair specialist. and natural blond plaits are worth at least $2O an ounce"

HOW RICH FURS
ARE OBTAINED
Frivolous Fashion Supports
One Of the Greatest Com
panies in the World

What woman doesn't love fur, and
to what woman isn't it becoming? But
what woman who wears it realizes the
risks taken by Canadian trappers to
cater to her vanity and comfort?
The finest furs are found furthest
north in the desolate Arctic wastes,
where a man may travel months at a
lime with his only companions a team
of sledge dogs, his food frozen meat
and fish; where he sleeps in the shell
ter Of a snow bank, liable to snow
blindness, blizzards and attack by
wolves. Here all winter he sets steel
traps, lays dead falls and twine snares
for fur animals.
The whitest, most expensive ermine
is found north of the line of the Arctic
circle. A man must face fiercest cold
to get enough of these tiny, weasel
| like creatures to make lady's stole
What work, exposure, hardship to
man and his dog team are embodied
IN an ermine dolman-the newest
shape in fur wraps!
Quite as dangerous is the trapping
of the finest foXes-the black fox, the
equally valuable white fox, of which
the pe!ts are costly not only because
they are hard to get, but because in
the Arctic circle they are finest and
loveliest.
The rare and beautiful silver fox
is found only in the extreme cold. To
take a silver fox trapper goes for
leagues by snowshoes and dog-team,
invading the regions of DEATH" where
the mercury goes down to so or 60
below and life becomes something
that is at best only mere existence
and at worst annihilation." But a few
silver pelts, each only about two feet
long, make a fortune.
Men have spent years in these soli-
tudes on snowshoes that women might
be warm and fashionable.
Never was a larger, more powerful
concern catering to woman's love of
luxury than is the Hudson Bay Com
pany Round it has centered the fur
trade of America since 1910. 1t has
a domain as large as Europe, stretch
ing over the ice-covered home of the
terrible north wind, from the eastern
shore Of Labrador to the Businesses
Of the Rockies and into the Arctic
region.
Newark post., 1919-09-24

Frivolous fashion! Yet it supports
one of the greatest companies Of the
world, that for two centuries and a
half has maintained an army of men
in the northern cold.
Formerly the factors of the Hudson
Bay Company had the power of an
cient barons, to make war and peace,
punish fur thieves and marauding
"free traders" in order to protect the
interests of "The Company" Though
today conditions are more peaceful,
the trapping life still is full of thrill
and romance.
An accurate and interesting ac-
count of this life of the north is given
in "The Wilderness Trail" the novel
by Frank Williams-the story of
which will be shown on the screen at
The Opera House, Tuesday, Septem-
Der 30th. With accompaniment of
snowshoes, dogs sledges and real
husky" dogs. Lovely Colleen Moore,

Actual Work on Canal to
Begin November l

The government is arranging for
the purchase Of a hydraulic dredge
to used in the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal. Actual digging
will probably begin about Novem-
her /. There are three locks in the
canal:
Delaware City, st. Georges and
Chesapeake City. The work Of
deepening the canal will be started
at the Chesapeake end of the canal.
1.-The present depth will be increased
first by ten feet from Chesapeake
aCity to St. Georges. The sill and
gates of the Chesapeake City locks
twill be lowered to that depth, when
another ten feet will be dug, and
as this will bring the bottom of the
canal 13 feet below sea level, the
outer lock will be torn away. Simi-
lar work will be done at the other
lend of the canal. New bridges are
to be built and as there will be con-
siderable adjustment along the en-
htirc route Of the canal, owing to the
increased width engineers are now
making surveys preparatory to TAX
ing over the needed ground for the
sea level canal.
This work will be done by private
