AUSTRALIA WANTS
 FAIRFIELD PLANS
Consider Alabama Town a Model and Want to Know
 How It Is Done
Even in far-off Australia. half way

Even in far-off Australia, half way around the world, the fame of Fairfield as model industrial city is known. From Angaston, South Australia. re quest has come to Robert Jemison, Jr., asking for plans of the city. tosether with lantern slides to be used in lectures in a town planning and housing cam paign.
 Since it's construction decade ago. Fairfield has been the chief inspiration of zoning, town planning and housing improvement campaigns throughout the United States and Canada. but this is the first call which has been received from Australia for information about Alabama's model industrial city.
 The letter, which comes from Stanley Davey, who is a member of the South Aus;ralia committee in charge of the .amraign, wa1i dated January 3l. but was received by Mir. Jemison only yeste,- day
 The letter is as follows

Bessemer, March 9-(Special)-A peti- ton is being circulated in Bessemer which will be presented to the city council at it's next meeting which has. it Is claimed, l, 100 names attached to it, which will call for an effort on the part of the councilmen to lower the rents of the city.
 It is pointed out by those interested in the petition that rents have not decreased in accordance with other expenses, and with so many out of employment, and with decrease in salary in many in- stances it is impossible to keep up tn~ high rents, it is said.
 A committee was appointed by the council recently to investigate the prices demanded of customers at the restau- rants. and it is believed that if the pe- tition is presented to that body they will make an investigation of the rental proposition.

PLUSH USED INSTEAD OF FUR
Material Affords Most Unusual Effects
in Trimming for Suits,
Dresses, Skirts.

In trimmings we have as great a
latitude as in materials. Plush-like
fabrics are profusely used in lieu of
fur. Most unusual are the effects OBJ
tanned by the application of huge plush
flowers to suits and dresses. They may
cover an entire suit skirt and reappear
on the jacket at the hips, collar and
cuffs. Enormous puffs of plush are
used to form large collars as well as
to edge the bottoms of coats.
In contrast to these heavy trimmings
are the airy French flower girdles that
young girls are wearing on their party
frocks. They are seen on silver or
delicately tinted ribbons, and the most
exquisite color effects are obtained
through their use. The flowers may
be strewn along the edge of ribbon
girdle which is little more than a
thread of color. Small, dainty flowers
such as moss rose buds and margue-
rites are chosen for these girdles. The
