A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose


THE survival of the fittest is some
L thing that works out in fashions as
we'll as in nature.
What happens is this: The designers
and dressmakers produce any number of
new sorts of clothes, based. on what
they think the women will want and
what they think is beautiful. Then
after all these new sorts of frocks and
gowns have been shown there comes a
time when the woman who is chiefly
interested in clothes because she wears
them is all at sea. Gradually, how
ever, the sky clears. The clouds of con
fusion roll away and from it all emerges
two or three really dominant ideas.
They have proved to be the fittest and
they have survived.
Well. this year one Of the things that
has survived is the low waistlne.
Whether bodices are made in shaped
basque effect or in straight uniting
lines, the waistline is usually placed
low.
am showing you today little frock
that shows some of the interesting sur
vivals of the ideas that were first pre-
sented this season. Yes, the tendency
to outstanding hips has persisted, but
often it is merely a suggestion. as in
this frock. 1t does not actually give
the appearance Of large hippedness.
Then side panels have shown them
selves we'll worth while, and the short
sleeve, in spite OF recent long sleeves
in Paris, shows that they are still in the
running.
As for this frock it is made of satin
and striped geOrgcttc. The plain foun-
dation skirt OF satin has full panel
OF the same. which is puffed into the
lower edge of the skirt. The georgette
used at the sides of the skirt is ex-
tended at the hipline as you see, the
large collar of satin is arranged to give
the much to be desired Eton effect to
the georgette bodice, and the softly
draped hat is of satin to match the
frock.

italian Girl Writes to "Anxious"

Dear Cynthia read Anxious"
letter about marrying an Italian, MAY
l give her my opinion?
Please. Anxious" don't marry mn
Italian no matter how Americanized he
may be. am an italian girl myself and
! could point out to you many un-
happy marriages between our boys and
the American girls.
The reason for this is first. as Cyn
thia says. the customs of foreigners will
prove irksOme to an American girl.
The most important reason is that
we Italian girls are brought up to be
always at the beck and call of the men.
OF course, when they are married they
expect this from their wives and we
expect TO do il.
Even il you are fortunate enough to
get young man who is very much
Americanized and has none of the Ital-
ian ideas, you must consider his rela
tives. They will always be watching you
and every little thing that you do that
is contrary to their italian customs
they will look askance at and make life
miserable for you.
| have asked quite a few of the boys
why they prefer the American girls TO
girls of their own nationality; invariably
they say that the Italian girls haven't
enough freedom and still when they
marry these girls it's the very thing
they quarrel over. They won't give their
wives enough freedom. Now If YOU
think you could stand all this. "Anx-
iouS. go through with it and may luck
be with you. ONE WHO KNOWS.

Please Tell Me
What TO Do
Which 10 Happler7
BY CYNTHIA


Dear Cyntbia-With great interest
have been reading the good advice you
have given others, so l have decided
to call upon you for a problem 70 be
solved which has always puzzled me
greatly. Do you consider a young
woman or man, as the case might be,
who already has a good home, good
parents and making an independent
living, wise or foolish to get married? !?
In other words, which are the happiest.
married or single people? OF course,
we all know that IL one marries and
fails he or she is worse off than the
single person. But taking for granted
that we are only taking into considera-
tion those who are perfectly happy or
rather have all the comforts of this life.
which class do you think has the most
satisfactory path to travel? This is a
longer letter than l intended to write.
but I'll ask you to overlook this and
also assure you that your answer will
be anxiously looked for and greatly ap-
preciated if only a half dozen words.
PUZZLED.
My dear, these things depend upon
the individual. Marriage is the normal
life for man and woman, and when q
man and woman love each other and are
unselfish and interested in each other
there is no happier life in this world;
whereas there is no harder life than
being tied to a man or woman one does
not love.
Taking the love for granted, it stands
to reason that iiie shared with
another is bound to be happier than one
led alone. But, as said in the be-
ginning, it depends on the individual.

Old HearSe Probably Burned

The mid -Columbia's oldest hearse,
perhaps one of the oldest in Oregon.
was probably destroyed when J. ?.
Tryons garage burned in Mosier Mon.
day night. The old vehicle was placed
IN Mosier in 1912 by Sc. Bartmess. He
bought the hearse in Portland in l89t
from the Cook Undertaking Co. 1t had
been used in Portland for 25 years be
fore it was brought here.
Mr.. Bartmess has received no report
of his loss, but presumes that it was
destroyed along with numerous auto
mobiles and other vehicles stored il
the building.
He says, however, that he doesn't re
gret the loss. as the vehicle had never
brought him any income from the
healthy orchard district.

PALOUSERS MERRY
!. ON CHRISTMAS DAY
MANY MOSCOW PEOPLE JOIN
WITH OTHER PALOUSERS
AT LONG BEACH DINNER

There are many Palousers in
southern California this winter and
number of them got together for
their Christmas dinner at Long
Beach. J. L. Naylor, of Moscow,
who was one of the party, sends this
paper the following very interesting
account His letter follows:
Once Palouser, always a Palous-
er, is true of the bunch that is in
California this winter. There is a
bond of fellowship existing between
the settlers of the Palouse conutry.
This bond is interviewer into their
lives by long association with each
other, so long that time cannot efface
it. AS yesterday was Christmas we
had planned to have our Christmas
dinner together out in the beautiful
park at Point Firmin on the each
three miles above San Pedro, at the
site of Fort Macarthur. The day was
ideal, the company was jovial, and
the dinner was splendid The occa-
sion was made doubly enjoyable by
having as our guests Mr.. and Mrs.
George Breemer, who were old time
Moscow residents. The Breemers
came to the Palouse country in 1877,
and George built the first brick
dwelling house in Moscow. This
house is now owned and occupied by
Thomas Tierney. The Breemers have
been living in Seattle, where they
have been very successful in business.
They are now travelling down life's
pathway hand in hand happy as two
lovers, but they always remember
the early days spent in the Palouse
country. After dinner we went over
the old times and renewed acquaint-
ance with many whom we had not
seen for several years. Some of the
party went down to the beach and
gathered Abalona shells and sea moss.
There were 33 seated at the dinner
table and while we were still at the
table Mrs. Beemer passed tablet
and each one wrote his name and
these are the persons who were
there:
Mr.. and Mrs. George Breemer of
Seattle; John p Thompson, of Mos
COW; Mr.. and Mrs. B. C. Zeitler, of
Long Beach, Mr.. and Mrs. j. L. and
Neppa Naylor, of Moscow, Mr.. and

roy; W. N. Glib, of Genesee; Mr..

MANY TOWNS WANT
BIG CONVENTION
SEVEN CANDIDATES FOR MA
TIONAL DEMOCRATIC CON-
ENTION NOW IN RACE

WASHINGTON.- cities are
in friendly but active competition for
the privilege Of entertaining the next
democratic national convention, the
place Of which will be decided by tht
democratic national committee at its
meeting in Washington on January 8.
The cities thus far in the contest are
Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas City,
Cleveland and Cincinnati, 1ndianap-
oils and San Francisco.
Illinois Democrats, headed by Ma
tional committeeman Charles Boesch-
enstein, will press the claims of
Chicago, which has already been
selected by the republicans as the
place of their next convention. 1t is
understood that Committeeman
Boechenstein will have the support
of the Iroquois Club, the large and
lively democratic organization of
Chicago, and also Of the Chicago as
sociation of commerce, which will be
represented by delegation of
prominent business men.
According to information which
has come to the headquarters of the
democratic national committee in
Washington, San Francisco is pre-
pared to equal or exceed the financial
guarantee Of any other city in the
contest. A large delegation of Cali
fornians is to appear in behalf Of San
Francisco at the national committees
meeting
It is announced that members of
the democratic national committee
have made no pledges or commit
ments of any kind in advance of the
meeting at which the place of the
next convention is to be determined.
The claims of everyone Of the seven
rival cities will be heard fully and
fairly, it is stated, before definite
action is taken.
More than usual interest attaches
to this meeting of the national com
mittee, not only because of the task
of selecting the convention city, but
also because of the Jackson Day
dinner at the Willard Hotel on the
night of January 8. It is already
forecast that there will be a large
attendance of democrats from vari-
Gus sections of the country, and |
among the speakers will be the most I
prominent leaders Of the party.
It is expected that President Will
son will send personal message to
the guests at the dinner
