SERVICE AND RECORDS

Miss Charlotte Templeton, Sec
rotary Of the State Library Com
mission, was in Marietta Monday
inspecting the Clarke Library,
and talking over plans for the re-
organization Of the Library with
the Board Of Directors. 1t was
decided to employ trained libra

some new reference works for the
especial benefit of the High School
Pupils and the Club women.
The books already on the shell
YES will be reclassified and cata-
logued by the card index system,
and the method of charging the
books to the patrons will be
changed to the card system. 1t is
planned that this reorganization
work will be done during the sum-
mer, and that by September the
Library will be ready to offer free
service to the people of Marietta,
and valuable aid to the High
School.
These plans mark a great for
ward step in the library develop
ment of Marietta, and will be
strong factors for recreation tand

to old gold. The top layer of the three decker skirt fiared more than the others and was punched up at the sides. The bodice crossed over in front and fastened at one side, show ing little vest of peacock blue ninon, embroidered with fine gold thread.
 Now, 1t Is obvious that this style of dress will not suit every one though it's ''bunchiness" can be reduced to a mini mum. Also, 1t must not be imagined that the one-piece dress Is going to disappear or become demode; it is far too useful and convenient a garment for that, and it can be made with just an indication of the new outline in the way of tendency to drape slightly at the sides.
 The coat and skirt of the more dressy or "dressmakery" order is be ing cut rather on Louis XIV lines. The coats have 8 decided fullness over the hips, f1aring over the narrow skirts which, by the way, are not quite so narrow or quite so short as recently. The real tailor-made suits, however, pay no attention whatever to this change of outline, but continue to be built on straight and narrow lines.

BRACELET IS NOW IN VOGUE
Decoration Regarded as Necessary When Short Sleeves Are Worn;
 Lace-Topped Gloves.

Since Paris persists in making us wear short sleeves, the bracelet has taken on a new lease of life. If these abbreviated sleeves were only for the young and fair, all would be well i; but even stately dowagers must, to be in fashion, have their sleeves well above the elbow. And in such cases, even so small a thing as a bracelet helps free one from the consciousness of harsh elbows that have lost the soft charm of youth. So the wide gold bracelets, that have long been in the discard, are being taken out of faded velvet cases, and sent to the jewellers to be freshened up bit.
 Paris has sent over recently some interesting bracelets in imitation of jade, tortoise shell, ivory and cellu- loids, all intr1cately carved to repro duce some good luck charm or god. Coming as they do in so many differ ent colorings they are worn to match the costume
 The quaint little short-topped gloves with a frill of silk or lace, of our grandmother's days, are back fin style again, and are most effective with an old-fashioned bracelet worn just above.
 Museums and art stores are being searched for models of the old Roman armlets of gold and silver, so as to have them copied. Of these the ones of Etruscan gold are loveliest. Many of these ancient bracelets do not meet entirely, but show the arm through the open space between the ends. h. dian bracelets of beaten silver are made in the same manner, these often being decorated with a single large stone, such as rose quartz, turquoise, or garnet

Pannier Model Among Latest,
 London Writer Says.
style 10 Declared to Be Decided De- parture From Slim Outline
 of ChemIse Dress.

Among the new ideas in dress, which are now appearing, is the pan nier frock, writes a London fashion correspondent in the Christian Science Monitor. It is a decided departure from the slim outline of the chemise dress, which has been our great stand by for so long. Of course, we are not going to wear panniers in any literal sense of the word, but this new mode demands that we shall be draped or frilled or punched at the hips in or der to obtain the new silhouette.
 Some of the stiffer silks, printed or woven with little punches of flowers of charming old-world design, are ad- mirably suited to express this fashion; ; and shot tafeeta, which has been little used of late and which was in no way suitable for the long lines of the chemise dress, will again come into its own. Little kilted frills and ruches with frayed edges will take the place of fringe in the way of trimming, and this should be pleasing news, as most persons will agree that the fringe has been terribly overdone. Quite tiny fringe may still be used for edging frills, but the long shaggy kind, so strangely reminiscent of the cave woman, which used to hang the entire length of skirt, has gone, let us hope, forever.
 A dress which showed one way of expressing the pannier style, was made of taffeta, changing from peacock blue

The demand for velveteen is great.
 Corduroys are much used for negli- gees.

 Among the advance separates skirt styles recently seen is noted a circular model of medium width and conserva- lively short length.
 Soft felt hats in vivid co1ors are one type of sport hat introduced for southern wear and likely to be pop ular for spring and summer. It Is impossible to predict the popu- larity of the cape suit for spring, but IldL VIII De WOTu IO d IuOEO or less degree is assured by the attractive models that have been introduced.
 Accordion plating is introduced as the skirt feature in many spring mod els, both dress and suits; sometimes the entire skirt is accordion plaited, then again the plaits are introduced in the form of panels.
 The American woman will wear the splendid tricot corset of American manufacture that meets the require ments of fashion and yet is practical for her figure and the climate and environment in which she lives.

BeIfs to Be Worn.

Following their introduction in plain, conservative styles, belts de signed to be worn by women with their coats or suits are now being de veloped in most novel patterns. Be sides variety of feathers and imita- ton feathers, stitching in different coIors is used to add to the attra ctiOn of these articles. Designs are also worked out by cutting the facing. Belts of the sort described are found on the majority of coats and suits selling to the popular priced trade, and during the coming spring at least there is promised more of a vogue for belts for women than for men.

Drop In the Value Of Lands

Buying and selling farms in Adair
county has not been active for more
than two months and there is a reas-
on for 1t. A great many farmers lost
on tobacco this year, and evidently
there will not be very large crop put
out this year. Tobacco is the COM
modify that advanced the price of
land in the county. A year ago every
man who had surplus money invest
vested it in land, because every farmer
wanted to grow tobacco, believing
that it would bring fabulous prices on
the market. But the market dropped
and many growers did not get as
much for it as was paid out for labor
to raise it. From the information
we gather the tobacco growers of
Adair county will turn their atten-
tion to raising corn and hogs this year.

PHILLIPS.

Miss Ella Olive Phillips died at Lon
don, KY, on last Sunday morning,
February %, 1920. She was born
March II, 1898, at Wahallah, Victoria,
Australia, where she lived until the
age of 10 years, when she with her
parents, moved to Waihi, New Zea-
iz14. She was a graduate of Trinity
College of London, and also of the
Royal Academy of London, England.
She was christened in the Church of
England in infancy, and received
Christ as her Savior at the age of 16
years while in New Zealand. She
came to this country year ago, land
ing aU Vancouver British Columbia,
February 16, 1919, coming on from
there to Somerset, where together
with her mother she was baptized in
the fellowship of the First Baptist
Church of this city. For the past
four months Miss Phillips had been
instructor of music in Sue Bennett
Memorial College, London, KY.
Atall times, under all circumstances,
she walked in the well beaten path Of
righteousness and when fully con
scious that she was near the last of
earth, she appeared to be fully i'm
pressed with the idea that at the end
of time eternity began, and that the
bright faith which sustained her dur
ing those trying hours of suffering
would only grow brighter as she jour
neyed toward the infinite, and the fl
nal gloom of death be dispelled by
the radiance of Gods love. Could all
live the just and upright life that
Miss Phillips lived, and die in His
trusting faith, death could no longer
be called "The King of Terrors" fol
she inspired no terrors there The
dying girl and sorrowing friends look
ed forward with the same eye of faitf
to the brighter future where thi'
temporary separation would end in
an eternal reunion.
p The remains we're brought here &C
companied by Mrs W. E Hunter, o.
this city, and Rev. Leslie ]. B. Smith
pastor Of the Baptist church of Co
lumbia, KY, to whom she was to hav'
been married shortly. Funeral ser
vices were held on Tuesday Afternoon
