BY HIGHWAY.

During the first three days of the
Bowie spring race meeting, which
opened Thursday, there has been en-
joyed by the hundreds of .devotees
of the turf a variety of racing. On
the opening day heavily backed
favorites got down in front, on the
second day the long shots had their
inning and Saturday while the win
ners could properly be classed as
favorites they were indeed just popu-
lar choices and rewarded their back
ers quite literally.
Example OF this was seen in the
first race, when Pluribus easily dis
posed of his field and paid $40 for
Sc; again when The Archer won and
paid about $I2, and in the nightcap
when Tiger Rose was permitted to
get by with the liberal odds of s to
placed beside her name.
Holding Hammer Meeting.
Ten days remain In the Bowie
race meeting and It is idle to pre-
dict anything but that the meeting
which will close Thursday. April Is,
will be the banner one in the his
tory of the Bowie track.
Crowds are turning out to the
Bowie track which simply cannot
be properly accommodated and the
news that the grandstand and pari-
mutuel department are going to be
enlarged is indeed welcome.
Thurber on Job.
There are a number of good
jockeys at the track and a new one
seems to arrive every day. Jockey
Thurber, who has always had good
success in the Maryland meeting.
Is at Bowie now and ready to ac-
cept mounts.
There is little class in the card at
the Bowie race course this after
noon outside of the fourth race, but
races will be provided which will
cause thrilling finishes and provide
excellent entertainment.
Bullet Proof Looks Good.
Unless that horse Is to fall below
the expectations OF its stable, Bull
let Proof should take down the fea-
ture race without any trouble. He
won his first start at Bowie on the
opening day like a class horse and
while he is up against more sea-
soned material today he is never
theless lightly weighted. Chief,
Bondage and My Dear should offer
the contention in this race. Chief
would seem the logical choice on
his New Orleans form but he did
not do SO well in the Inaugural on
Thursday and it is possible that he
will not take to the Bowie track.
Maidens Bad Lot.
A bad bunch of 3-year-olds will
take the field in the first race. A
number of them have been slumber-
ing for many months and just which
one will take down the purse is in
deed problematical. Three long dis
tance races are provided today, filled
with horses which have been out
once or twice already at the meet
ing. Mallowmat is entered in two
races, and a good deal of interest
is attached to his effort today. The
people want to know whether he
is good enough to come right back
with as sterling a performance as he
produced Friday when he paid his
supporters sl4l for 81. or whether
this race was a flash in the pan
and he is only a mediocre cam
paigner.

A POSTSCRIPT written to the story
4 y of suits is due just now and may
be briefly written, since the story itself
was not long one this season. There
has been great uniformity of styles and
considerable variety in details Of fin
lshing, and the points that distin-
guished suits at the beginning of the
season proved to be very popular, so
that there has been no good reason for
running after strange gods. Now that
the season is over, and designers are
turning their attention to spring, we
are not likely to find any startling in
nOvatiOns in winter styles.
The two suits pictured are found
among the liberal quota of fur-trim-
med models that have made up a
part of all representative collections
The sSlit at the left is one of the few
that have shown themselves independ-
ent Of the vogue for coats reaching al
most to the knees. There are a few
models that keep it company, so that
it is not wholly audaciOus, but they
are very becoming and good in style.
The coat shown in the picture has en-
placements Of fur at each side of the
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1920-12-09

front and back, with two large buttons
set in the spaces between the fur
pieces and a generous shawl collar.
The long girdle of the material is fin
ished at the ends with barrel-shaped
ornaments made of the fur. Squirrel
skins were chosen for this suits trim
ming and the gray velvet turban COW
cred with massed sprays of uncurled
ostrich in gray looks we'll with it.
The suit at the right reveals coat
little longer than the average, with
a plain and fairly wide skirt. 1t is
a fine model for a matronly wearer,
with its straight coat and line of cloth
covered buttons from waist to neck.
These buttons reappear at the sides
where the coat is split, and add to the
general trimness of this suit. Popular
furs for suits include seal, moleskin,
squirrel, shOrt-halred fox, Australian
opossum and beaver. Another feath-
er-cOvered hat suggests that velvet and
feathers are not outrivaled by any,
thing else for wear on the street, and
here velvet-cOvered toque makes the
background for much uncurled ostrich.

and is also made of velvet. Two colors
are used for it, the brlm IN q lighter
tone than the crown, and a sash of rib
bon finishes 1t. H.
A charming hat at the bottom of the
group is an amusing; miniature made
like hats for grownups. 1t Is also
made of velvet with sectional crown
and has an upturned brim split at each
side. Silk cord edges the brim and
outlines the seams in the crown and
bright motifs in silk embroidery helm
the gaiety of the winter season. No
wonder its small wearer is so pleased
with life In general and her hat in
particular. 1t Is clever piece of de-
signing In which the means used for
developing maturer headwear have
been perfectly adopted to childhood.
Hats as elaborate as this look best
with plain coats and It happens that
coats for girls are plain this season.
