SIMPLE DESIGNS
FOR new FR0CkS
Following After -the-War Extrav-
agance in Clothes Reverse
Reaction Prevails.
TAFFETA DRESSES IN FAVOR
Fabric Bids Fair to Be Popular for
Spring Wear summery-Look-
ing Hats for Southern
Visitors.

AS violent reaction, clothes be-
came widely extravagant almost as
soon as the war was over. There were
few months of readjustment, while
dressmakers were getting their estab-
lishments back into normal working
condition; but this period was sur
prisingly brief. No sooner was this
done. even in limited way, than
the market became flooded with an
avalanche of clothes, as extravagant
as any that the world has ever seen.
Now we are experiencing reverse
reaction, observes prominent fash
Ion correspondent.
While it cannot he claimed that our
frocks are any less expensive than
they were six months ago, they are a
great deal simpler in design. There
is no mistaking the indication that
women want all of their dresses built
on the simplest and most youthful
lines, and that they will pay more for
dress of this character than one
elaborated with applied trimmings.
Season Calls for Pretty Clothes.
We tire, in time, of all our clothes,
and now is the time when we es-
pecially feel the need of something
fresh and different. Then, at this
season, we have so many more social
engagements that we like to have
great variety of pretty clothes in
which to appear In both the early
and late autumn this need was filled
by one-piece cloth dresses and beau
tiful furs. Later, these frocks were
topped by coats of either cloth or fur
Now, we feel the need of suit that
is completed by some sort of an at
tractive blouse, unusual enough to
make the costume something quite diff
ferent from the Old-fashiOned coat and
skirt.
A suit, by Doeuillet, was created to
fill this need. Its arrival may be
heralded as the most popular suit that
this famous house has launched for
the winter. The strong one-side move
ment and the long coat are its fea-
lures. The portion which laps across
the front, buttoning under the left
arm, to give semi-belted appearance,
is cut in one piece with the right front
of the jacket. The color combination
Gilpin observer., 1920-02-12

is decidedly more luxurious, the plush
10 most economical, and has the ad-
vantage Of being equally fashionable.
DOeuillet completes his costume with
smart bodice Of black satin, en-
broidered In copper color. This makes
the suit beautiful and practical.
Taffeta Dresses Mldwintsr FavorItes.
1t is surprising to find taffeta
dresses meeting with continued sue
cess in the midwinter season. Those
who look ahead in fashions will see
in this indications Of considerable
use of this fabric for spring. We have
come to think of 1t as such practical
material that 1t never has had the
attention that 1t deserved from the
artistic standpoint. 1t was always fea-
tured in evening gowns for members

On another occasion while in Wash
ington Miss Aguinaldo was given real
ovation by a Filipino-American audi
ence when she recited MY Last Fare.
WELL" poem of DIR. Jose Rial, the Fill
ipno martyr.
Miss Aguinaldo is a student at the
University of Illinois, Urbana, Ill.
While in Washington she was the
guest of Mrs. Jaime C. deVeyra, wife
of one OF the resident commissioners
from the Philippines. The Capitol
building and the Congressional library
appealed particularly TO the young
Filipina, while the beautiful sights
from the Washington monument thrill
ed her with delight. When asked how
she liked America, she smiled and an
swered:
ut is "A wonderful country didn't
like winter at first, but since l have
learned how TO skate | am having fine
times. All the Americans whom | have
met have been very good 10 me. My
friends in Urbana and my classmates
in the university are JUST lovely. but |
cannot help feeling homeslck at times
because | am missing my father. My
coming here was indeed great sacri-
fee for him, for we are very close. He
Us so good to me"
Miss Aguinaldo is intensely patriotic.
She does not conceal her resentment
when she hears or reads of "A misrepre-
sentntion of the Filiplnos. at is un-
Fortunate" she once exclaimed In a
voice full of sadness. "that my country
and my people are hardly known, much
less understood, by the people of Am

Stlon with this Filipino maid. She
eyades the topic by replying that she

declares, "is that l share with my
father in the desire for Independence
for my native land. There is no ques-
ton about our being able to govern
ourselves"
Filipinos declare Miss Agulnaldo has
genuine Fllipina temperament'-
that is, she does not believe In the oc-
cdental custom of dates" between
young men and women. She does not
see anything wrong in 1t, she says, but

custom In the Philippines that she can
not adopt II.
"You might laugh at me-" she said,
''but l cannot go out with one single
escort unchaperoned. l simply can't.
will go back to my country with the
soul of Filiplna."
A newspaper in one of the large Am
erican cities that Miss Aguinaldo visit

would no doubt be greatly impressed
by the sight Of street cars and some Of
the fine residences she would see, but
the truth is the young lady was raised

Snow Houses in the Arctic.

A snow house is the most adapta.
BILE of dwellings. If it gets too warm
either for the comfort of the inhabi-
tants or because the roof begins to
thaw, you can lower the temperature
oy enlarging the ventilating hole with
your knife. If it gets too cold, you
make the hole smaller by stuffing
mitten into 1t. II the roof begins to
thaw because it is made of blocks
that are too thick you send a man out
with long knife or machete, and he
thins them down until the frost with
out neutralizes the heat from Within
and the thawing stops. But il you
have made your roof too thin, and
hoarfrOst begins to form from your
breath and from the steam that rises
from the cooking, then man goes
out with shovel, instead of knife,
and throws n little soft snow on the
roof, to blanket it from the excessive
cold.-Harper's Magazine.

of the younger set, but we rarely saw
1t in handsome daytime frocks, as for
some reason or other is has come to
be considered somewhat informal
material. Now our greatest designers
have taken it up and are exploiting
1t in way that makes everybody
wonder why we did not realize its
possibilities before.
Taffeta Popular With Designers.
Probably the puffy skirts of this
autumn gave it the first boost toward
success for it does come into prOm-
nence whenever we have a wider sill
houette, due to the fact that its stiff
ness makes 1t suitable to these de-
signs. Now those who make dresses
are using it for straight-line models
which wrap about the figure. OF
course 1t is not fabric which lends
itself to Longtime drapery with any
degree of grace, but it could not be
surpassed by any other material for
short. puffy drapery.
Lanvin especially has had great sue
cess with her taffeta dresses She
makes them with and without en-
broidery. Black and navy blue are
the colors most in demand in taffeta.
This winter hats have reflected the
uncertainty of the silhouette. There
has been war between the dress
with the puffy hips and the one of
slender lines and the question of
choice between the two has had an
important bearing on all fashions. As
both these types were worn, it was
natural that there should be both large
and small hats rs well as those that
were plain and those greatly trimmed.
We always see the full skirt ac-
companied by rather large hat Q:
picturesque shape, which is topped by
trimming of a fussy character; while
the straight-line dress has in its wake
the small hat. Fur toques are fash
ionable bits of hendwear for this
midwlnter.
Please Southern Visitors.

OPENS SUIT AGAINST
 IRRIGATION COMPANY

Declaring that the company has re- fused to deliver to him the necessary water for the irrigation of his crops for the coming season to which he says he is entitled, R. O. GrunWell has
 brought suit in the superior court against the Buckeye Irrigation com- pany. He asks that a temporary in- junction be issued enjoining the com- pany from refusing to deliver water for the 1920 season and that the in Junction be made permanent upon the hearing of the case
 MT. Grunwell states that the Buck eye Irrigation company was formed to develop and irrigate the land near the Gila and Agua Fria rivers, known gen orally as the Buckeye Irrigation prof ect; that only owners of land that can be irrigated from these rivers can be stockholders in the company, accord ing to it's charter.
 Each landowner, he says is entitled to one share of stock for each acre of land in the project. Mr. Grunwell states that he is entitled to the water for l20 shares of stock. He has pre- pared his land for the 1920 crop of cotton, he states, and for alfalfa, and that the company has refused to de- liver the water. He states he has paid all dues and assessments levied by thf. company.

 BE GIVEN HEARING
 OV FEDERAL CHARGE

After repeated delays, Oscar Price. former jailer. charged with aiding a federal prisoner to escape from the Maricopa county jail, will be given his examination before United States Commissioner Henke Tuesday. If government counsel are engaged in court Tuesday the hearing will be held on the following day.
 This order was made by Judge David F. Dyer of the federal court yesterday after. Spencer B. Pugh. counsel for the defendant, had sur rendered his client to the authorities that he might bring habeas corpus proceedings.
 Pugh claims that the hearing has not only been continued from time to time without the knowledge or consent of the defendant, but that in addition to being denied the right to an ex- animation, the matter has been brought to the attention of the federal grand jury, which refused to return an indictment against Price.
 In the petition presented by Pugh yesterday the allegation is made that the grand jury considered the case.
 Price is charged with aiding John Banks, a federal prisoner to escape. Banks, who was charged with viola tion of the Reed amendment is alleged to have been given the freedom of the corridors by Price. He has never been apprehended since his escape from jail last fall.
 The escape was made after Price had rendered his resignation as deputy sheriff. He. however, was stiIl on duty explaining the duties to the man who succeeded him.

HIS COTTONO IF NO.3 GRADE BROUGHT q
 APOU|VD ON MARKET

[ Spurred by the story of the success Of Mrs. Pitrat. who raised a crop of cotton the past season which sold for S1.02 per pound, the highest price yet paid on the local market, Frank L. Howard, who lives six miles north of Seventh street, reports the sale of two bales of lint cotton at $1 per pound that graded No. 3. These two bales, which weighed 739 pounds, were sold to Cabell and Peek
 MT. Howard insists that had he held his No. cotton until the present time he would have received as high as $1.lO per pound.
 According to MT. Howard, the brok- CTS who purchased his cotton called 1t the best staple yet offered on the local market. All his crop previously sold graded No. l fancy. The last two bales were graded No. 2 on account or color, but the staple was declared 10 be Just as strong the first picked.
 Asked how it was that the last pick ing of his cotton produced as tough fibre as the first, Mir Howard stated that 1t was due partially to the gray ely soil on which the cotton was raised. but more because of the care in raising the cotton
 Tt is due to keeping the water off the land after the crop is made" de- clared MT. Howard, "and also to in tensive cultivation. The cultivator was running every day. and when the field was finished. it was started right over again@ On account of this care in growing, the cotton went 30 per cent. lint, which was said to be the highest of any sold in the valley this year.

OILERS JOURNEY TO
 MESA FUR SERIES
 OPENER THIS ? M

The first of a series of baseball games to decide the valley title will be played at Mesa this afternoon when the Standard Oil company team of Phoenix invades the Gateway city for a game with the Mesa Independents. Imbued with confidence by reason of past victories. the Oilers are confi- dent tha they will be able to hold their own against the Mesa squad, which last season was recognized as one of the strongest amateur teams in the state. Recent additions have also added con- siderable strength to the team. Short stop Faye and Outfielder Cooper both well known in local baseball circles. are not only high class fielders, but wield a wicked war club.
 Duke Cross, whose mound work was instrumental in defeating the Indian school team a week ago, will again be on the mound for the Oilers. Cross is in fine form for so early in the season. Ross Lyall will do the backstopping. Lyalfs throwing arm was never better, and the way he pegs them down to second is a caution. Prospective base stealers need be on their guard while Lyall is behind the plate.
 Up to date, the Oilers appear as the strongest team in the valley. Five of Sox last season, Warren, Westfall Lyall, Cooper and Cross being among those drafted.
 The game at Mesa this afternoon will start at 2:30 o'cuock. A number of local fans are expected to accom- pany the team, which will line up as follows: Lyall, C.; Warren, 2b.; Cooper, 3b.; Westfall, If; Faye, s.s.; Gasser, 1b.; Starr, Of; Thomas, If: Cross. D.
