~ ACES and laces went hand IN
hand this year. in Paris. Almost
every gown was fairly loaded
with lace OF one sort or another.
and there were lace hats. lace para
soils and lace wells. At Autrel where
the Drag races occur black and white
lace costumes were very prominent
and Beer presented one charming
model OF heavy white lace over black
satin with a long-waisted bodice Of
black velvet Venetian lace with dark
blue velvet made another cOmbina-

may or may not be matched by muffs.
UrS must absolutely have a fur neck
piece when crisp fan weather arrives,
but If necessary one can set along all
winter without a muff. Last winter
fewer muffs were carried than had
been the case in years. one reason
for this is the importance, from
style standpoint. Of handbags. a muff
and a handbag do not travel we'll
together. and with a muff 1t is not
easy to show off a handsome bag al
ways to best advantage. Another rea-
son is the prevalence OF scarf wraps
which must be held in position with
one or both hands. In a scarf wrSp

are carried also with evening wraps

France Undertakes
to Develop Farming

Paris, Dec. 9.-An elaborate
programme to develop agriculture
in frances colonies to meet one
half of the mother country's food
needs is being worked out by AL
bert Sarraut, the French Minister
Of Colonies.
M. Sarraut is sanguine of the
final success of his scheme, but
admitted to-day that he does not
hope for concrete results for two
years.
"The plans are too vast for i'm
mediate results" said the Minister.
1T includes the prolongation of
existing railway lines, the cons
trvction of lew ones, the reorga-
nization of new mercantile marine,
the building of factories and also
refrigeration plants for the pre-
serve of meats.
"Our colonies are essentially
agricultural, and our effors will
be directed toward increasing their
crops. their cattle and other food
producing animals. But the tran
sport of meat and cereals in their
raw form in tropical countries
presents almost insurmountable
difficulties. One of the first
things we must do isl to build
factories on the most where they
can be converted into food ready
for the market.

Are Lady Firemen

Boston, Dec. 9.--And how about
the lady firemen? Fire Com
missioner John R. Murphy at fire
headquarters had been outlining
the progress of the Fire Depart
nent in the last year and three
quarters since he took the reins.
Lady firemen?" he queried, "why
what have I to do with those? ?
Nothing, to be sure. The ladies
are voting now and they can vote
themselves in or not, as the please.
We men are in the lap of the gods
and the ladies-aHd whenever
they take the notion they can vote
me out and put in a lovely femin-
inc commissioner, with beautiful
eurls, in my place. Tt's not for
me to say one way or another.
Just ask the ladies' themselves. "
Which was all spoken with old
time Irish courtesy.
