Longer Skirt Is
to Be Fashion

All signs point to the longer skirt,
and the silhouette is still straight,
long and reasonably lacking in full
ness. Those who have just landed in
this country fresh from tie Partisan
showings OF later models say that the
creations which the smart cOuturiers
are presenting to their private patrons
adhere minutely to the general rules.
Simplicity is carried TO the last de-
gree of perfection. 1t Is the sole
standard that is considered worth
while. They seem to be aiming to
gain the utmost in this direction, for
there are no telltale signs that the era
of gingerbread is returning Indeed
one importer states that the very
smartest day dress shown at the Moiy-
neux opening was Of silk duvetyn,
with no trimming whatsoever added to
the loveliness of its texture. 1t was
simply an arrangement of lines so
subtly conceived that simplicity led all
other characteristics.
AS for the skirts-those important
parts of the newer dresses, around
which all interest centers-well, they
are really long, judging by two new
creations from the Partisan designer
Lucien Lelong, whose reputation has
grown during the last few seasons

Suggests New NeckIine

This suggests a new neckllne. 1t Is
the oval line that shapes itself under
the chin to n greater or a less depth,
as may be the preference of the one
who is to wear the gown. Sometimes
these oval shapes dip way down in
front, and then are filed in with quaint
little gilets plated or ruffled, but al
ways handmade, with the most deli
cate of stitches. 1t is sometimes n
great relief, on an otherwise plain
frock, to see this bit of freshness peep
Ing out at some place under the open
neck. 1t is touch that is always
feminine and always beautiful.
The long waistline, either formed
from a bodice that is long and shows
q belt underneath its slight blOusing
character or made by the little tie
belts on the One-piece frocks, is de-
cidedly the preference of the season.
OF the high waistlines there are some.
but these are usually on the more
quantity designed frocks for dancing
or for the very young people, or for
those whose figures are of the uncom-
promisingly straight up and down va

One design is a variation of the blue
serge frOck, which holds its own
through all seasons and weathers. We
hear cry, writes a fashion CORE
spondent, that dark blue serge is
scarce, and that women really should
be sensible and wear some other kind
of material, but they do not do it.
They appear regularly In the same old
serge, or some variation of this weave,
and there always seems to be plenty
of material to go around, after all. In
this newest model the long, flowing
sleeves are made of chiffon in the same
shade as the frock and the embroidery
Is done In brighter tones. The fringed
sash is of black satin, and the whole
line of the frOck, including that across
the shoulders at back, is one of an at
tractive dropping effect.

Another model is one of those black
satin suits which have all sorts of

ment may reach $25O,0OO,OOO In other
words, it will be necessary to plan
for construction at the rate of at least
S1OO,OO0,0OO and probably more per
year Some appreciation of what that
means may be cleaned from the fact
that in 1915 the expenditure for all
roads in the United States, construct
ed under state supervision, was only
$S0.OOOOOO.
Since 1919, however, state highway
departments have been greatly expand
ed, and efficient machinery has been
developed which will undoubtedly be
able to handle the greater volume Of
work
THE states have had four years in
which TO prepare for the expenditure
of the large funds which now become
available. They expect TO be able to
handle them. What is Of greater con
Germ to them at this time is the con
ditiOn which may result if federal an
preparations are permitted to lapse
The highway departments should know
at least year in advance what funds
are to be available i'm order that plaas
may be made for future construction.
Unless, therefore further federal ac-
ton is taken in the coming year, the
states will be left i'm doubt as to the
future policy of the government, and

prepared to expend. Such contingen-
cy would involve a serious setback to

1t IS a well-established fact that
market prices for even staple crops
vary considerably throughout the year.
Where bad roads prevail, farmers are
frequently unable to avail themselves
Of favorable prices. It IS common for
farmers to find that they cannot haul
their produce to market when prices
