The Colorado statesman. [volume] (Denver, Colo.) 1895-1961, 1920-12-11

M ERELY looking at the sumptu-
ly1 Gus wraps, designed for evening
wear, transports the mind into realms
IL delight; to regions where the ears
feast upon music and the eyes are de-
lighted with color. Never was there
a greater variety of lovely evening
wraps or more merit in the wraps
themselves than this season has pre-
Iented to women of fashion. Although
great modistes have differed as to their
lines, and thereby made, choice of
silhouettes, they are of one mind in
selecting the richest of colors. the most
gorgeous of materials and in placing
their company luxurious furs.
Some of these coats hang In full
straight lines that ripple about the
ankles. Others are somewhat less
p -odigal of fullness, but all are ample.
Collars, whether of fur or fabric, are
high, and colors, starting with such
Vivid tones as orange, vermilion and
htnna, in velvet travel all the way
to black in charmeuse. Many lovely
bl,es are displayed with royal blue

seeming to find in evening wraps the
best of all mediums for its use. One
would have to look far to find any
thing more beautiful than dark henna
used in wraps made of panne velvet.
Embroideries, in an embroidery sea-
son, go TO all lengths of gorgeousness
on evening wraps and motifs show In
SEPARATION from far corners of the earth
If any corner can be considered far
In these days. With the addition OF
bands of fur, the ultimate in luxury
is reached. Two very good examples
are shown here of wraps that VIII
hold their own In any splendid COM
pany. One of them, made of heavy
crepe silk in six tiers, employs narrow
bands of fur to outline the Jennings,
and belongs in the class of capes or
capelike garments that are always
fine style. The other combines gold
and black brocaded satin with black
velvet in dolmanlike wrap, with
novel velvet collar that wraps about
the throat and ends in big chou at
the left.

fringe exactly matches it and the tam
is made of the same material as the
scarf, with a pompon of wool like the
fringe.
The scarf at the right has wide
border in a checker board pattern,
which turns back to form practical
collar and belt that buttons across
the front.
Sometimes two lengths of angora
wool are used to form a garment that
stands between scarf and a coat,
and by this means is extended below
the waistline at the back. But the
scarfs pictured protect the body where
1t Is most sensitive to cold and they
are easier to make. The scarfs with
tams to match are scoring triumph
as Christmas gifts for young women
and without the tam. for others.
The Colorado statesman. [volume] (Denver, Colo.) 1895-1961, 1920-12-11

TT IS far cry from the misty
i scarfs of malines worn with eve
ming dress to those of shaggy wool for
outdoors and winter time, but all
scarfs appear to have assumed new
responsibilities. Some of them, made
of heavy angora wool are something
more than simple scarfs, and rival
sweaters and sweater coats, being pro-
yided with pockets, sashes, buttoned
girdles, ornam entail borders, and trav-
cling nearly always in the company
of taIns to match them. They come In
many colors and color combinations.
and are usually finished off with yarn
frnges.
The school girl and the tourist find
these new scarfs a joy-just suited to
their needs. Two misses, on their way
TO or from the halls of learning, are
QUILTED with scarfs and tams, with
much satisfaction, according TO the
picture. Wide and enveloping as these
CARTS are, they are not as wide as
some of those on display In the shops
One of them. at the left, is a plain.
dark tan model with sash attached to
one edge of the scarf at the back and
looped over at the front. Knotted

Largest Tide Of the Season

Last Friday saw the largest

The river ran down the front

not get as high as expected after
it began rising SO rapidly Friday
morning. II rained up until two

TAKING THE CENSUS

TIL census man will soon be around
with his note book. Many people
think that he asks lot of fool ques-
tions. They can not see what good it
does to have all these mountain of
figures collected. Ignorant folks will
fear to answer questions, fearing that
it is some scheme hostile to their in
terests
The census is Uncle Sans stock
taking, as necessary as an inventory
to. a business. 1t shows every town
and every state if it is gaining or los
ing and enables it to discover weak
spots in it's development and remedy
them.
Statistics of health. mortality and
social conditions are the basis upon
which improvement measures are
built. The town that has a high death
rate is shown that something is very
wrong in sanitary conditions The
period of congested populations is
made manifest. One could go into
every department of civic progress
and show how it needs for it's basis
accurate and well classified tables of
figures. "-
The worst fault of census taking is
the long time required to tabulate the
figures and get them printed. Some
times it has been nearly time for a
new census before the figures of the
old one were completed. When these
figures are several years old before
they become available, much of their
value is lost. Congress should insist
on having the census office managed
according to the best efficiency sys-
TENS, with politics absolutely cut out.
These figures ought to all be publish
ed within year or two after they
are collected.
So every one should cooperate by
answering carefully and fully every
thing that is asked. If people an
swer questions in a careless manner,
the figures collected will have very
little value.

PROHIBITION SEEN BY SAMPLE

PROHIBITION SEEN BY SAMPLE
The shocking series of fatalities
caused by wood alcohol in New York
and New England rs prophetic, in a
single phase only, and that not the
most important of what we may ex-
pect under the Dry law in the United
States.
The usual Dry comment upon wood
alcohol manslaughter is that the vic
tins are small loss--nopeless wrecks
of alcoholism, sure to have died soon
in the gutter in any case. This is not
only heartless and cruel to the mourn
ers of the dead; it is untrue. These
unfortunate people seem to have been
quite as useful and Industrious per-
sons as their libellers, and truer far
to American ideals OF liberty. Their
death is a crime to be punished, not
a subject for brutal cynicism.
Probably the gradual undermining
of American health by the secret use
OF beverages not actively poisonous
but inferior and deleterious will be in
the long run an even more costly af
termath of Prohibition than the more
direct and dramatic result of swift
poison. And more gigantic than eth
er, or than both>combined. is the set
ting up of whole new category of
imaginary and artificial offenses; the
constant strain upon public good ma
ture of new invitations to devilish-
ness.
Wood alcohol, denatured alcohol, all
sorts of industrial and trade COM
pounds containing alcohol are as cas-
lily obtainable as they ever were,
while alcoholic drinks of known pur-
ity are prescribed. These substi-
tutes we shall always have with US
and with them backbiting, tale-bear-
ing, civil disorders; a Nation divided
by ranking injustice reason re-
asserts itself and liberty is once more
established by the children of it's for
mer defenders.-New York World
