All Thoughts are turned toward
Easter now, which is the same thing
as saying all thoughts are turned to-
ward new millinery and new suits for
.pring. 1t Is a delightful custom that
invites us to put on new apparel in
honor of this Joyous festival. Certain
ty nothing helps more to impress it's
Significance on children and young peo-
pie than the pretty clothes that give
them SO much innocent pleasure. As
for women, the instinct to dress Is
as deeply implanted In them as the
instinct for home or children.
The most important item Of the
spring wardrobe Is the tailored suit, al
ways the character of dress that
should be worn on Easter day. It is
not so easy to make selection this
spring because Of the diversity Of
styles and materials that have been
presented by those who create suits.
For once in the history Of tailored
suits serge is chosen less often than
other weaves In wool, such as tricot.
duvetyn, Jersey and some novelty
cloths. And again wool by no means
holds the undivided attention of suit
makers. New weaves in silk and fiber

Colorado.

Messrs. Teal, Barr and associates
have about completed overhauling the
milling plant and the pumping and
clearing of shaft and levels of the
Slide mine and expect to have the en-
tire property operating by April l..
The mine has been cleared to the
eleventh level, which is now being re-
timbered into the main rich ore shoot.
The Minerals Recovery Company of
Denver expects to begin operations
shortly at the former plant of the Ma
tional Radium institute, 457 South
E,ati street, Denver. This plant,
which has been idle for about q year,
has been purchased by the Minerals
Recovery people, who expect to take
up the manufacture Of radium where
it was left by the National Radium in
sttute, whose plant has been idle
about year.
At the Yellow Pine, the production
of ore from the mine appears to be
increasing over last year and it is pre-
dicted that the total production for
1919 will double that of 1918. Peter
burger has just received returns from
his last carload of ore shipped from
his lease.

silk. materials that are mixtures Of
silk and WOOL come In for a generous
share Of attention. A scarcity Of wool
in wartimes brought these new fab
RIGS for suits into the foreground.
But the diversity in materials Is az
nothing to the diversity in styles. ex-
cept that skirts are uniformly long
and coats generally short, suit styles
have little In common. They range
from perfectly straight-line modelA
through semi-fltted couts. to the Rus
sian blouse. Some of the coats are
belted and many of them are not.
Braids are used freely and buttons
we'll represented, but there are braid
less and buttonless models that are
quite as smart and correct.
The waistcoat must be given special
mention because 1t Is attracting az
much attention as suits themselves.
aad presents as wide variety In ma.
terials and decoration. The two suits
pictured, among many aspirants for
favor, are correct as to length of
skirt and coat, and each is provided
with little waistcoat or vestee. In
details of furnishing they differ. and
In style one is a blouse and the other
Semifitted.
