EpEcAr1oN IN MEXICO

Much has been looked for from Mex loo under the presidency of Obregon. In some ways he has come up to expecta- tions and in others he has not. He hzs not been able as yet to secure the much sought recognition by the United States of his government, but that is nov a matter that rests largely with Him
 As to affairs in Mexico there is a sig uthcznce attached to the statement which he recently made to the effect that it is the aim of the government to employ fewer soldiers and more school teachers, and in making that statement he laid stress upon the fact that regi- nents and battalions have been dis. charged, appropriations for public in struction have been increased, teachers afe being prepared and new schools are Seing provided
 There Is nothing that Mexico has needed for d hong period of years more than education. Conditions which exist within the country are made possible through the failure to give the proper E1entfon to the education of the chfl. afen. Mextco has schools but it hasn't enough of them. It has considered that they were necessary for the few instead H the many with the result that de-

 Low-heeled shoes are the rule ex- cept for dress wear and even then heels are nothing like as high are for merly.
 Trailing scarfs and draperies are features of the newest evening gowns and seem to argue return of the train.
 Many fur coats have the bishop sleeve.
 The petal bodice has arrived; petal skirts having been exceedingly popu- lar, the petal bodice now bids for fa- vor.
 Much velvet is anticipated for fall, velvet suits and dresses as well as hats.
 Flying squirrel is being used ex- tensively for trimming suits and coats
 All-black costumes of net, char mouse and Canton crepe have solid black accessories. BodiceS are trans parent and sleeves short.
 It is an interesting trick to wear a narrow ribbon about the waist tc match the ribbon on the hat.
 Long sleeves, with open underArm l seam, fall away from the arm and are held to the wrist by narrow band. Canton and crepe de chine onepiece dresses are popular worn with match 1 ing capes lined in georgette of a con- 1 trasting shade.

 HISTORY
CHRISTMAS AT MOUNT VERNON

Today the news columns of the pub lie press are filled with stores as to how the Christmas Day was spent throuhout the land and it might be interesting to look back upon a Christ mas Day at Mount Vernon, with the Father of His Country as host, and his charming wife as hostess Christ mas at Mount Vernon in the peaceful day which follwed the Revolutionary war was always exceedingly merry. The Virginians of those days being cavalier made the most of the holi- day which the grim Pilgrim of New England practically ignored.
 Though invariably stern, Washing ton could unbend considerably on such an occasion. Mount Vernon was al- ways crowded at this period, and the celebration was of a luxurious char acter The Christmas dinner was serv- ed at o'clock in the banquet hall' and probably no fewer than thirty persons sat down to the repast.
 For this special occasion the host ess alway got out her handsome ser vice of pure silver, most of which had belonged to her when, as the widow Custis, she married Mir Washington and there was also a big display of cut glass.
 An oddly as nowadays It would be table, upon which all the dishes to considered, was the arrangement of the be served included even the buildings and pies, were placed at once. No wonder that in such days the festive board was said to 'groan' beneath the weight of the viands.
 As a matter of course, at the Christ mas dinner, as well as all other occa- sions, the table was waited upon by slaves, who did duty as house servants 1 Two were allotted to each guest, so that quite number were required. All of the eatables had to be conveyed a considerable distance, the kitchen l being detached from the mansion with which it was connected by a covered way
 At the housese of the great Virgin ia families at that period it was GUS tomary for the slaves to wait on the | table in the ordinary plantation garb 1 But at Mount Vernon many things were on a scale of exceptional lux ury and the negroes who performed | such service were clad in Washing l tons livery of red white and gold which was handsome and striking. The necessity of supper was re- moved by q great prolongation of th'

GOWNS OF CREPE AND VELVET

Crepe, velvets and brocades are the specialties of one manufa cturer. Sev- eral of their black evening gowns are made up with lace, while after noon frocks are shown plain and some times with beads.
 Side drapes of lace, which ex- tend from the shoulder to the hem and form tiny sleeves, characterize a black costume of Canton crepe which has in- serts of the same lace in straight lines down the front. A navy Canton srepe has side drapes heavily beaded in red. Lines of the same beads outline the collar, cuffs and shoulders.
 Three tiers of white crystal beads in long loops cover the entire skirt of a Canton crepe gown built on straight lines. One tier of loops covers the waists supplemented with bands of designs in the beads. A black chiffon velvet with long bodies straight in front and gathered at the sides, features a curved hem, longer at the sides than in the back and front.
 In brocadede chiffon, two deep turquoise frocks are shown, one with a scalloped tunic over an underskirt of the same color in charmeuse, and the other with the flower design of the brocade on the lower part of the skirt emphasized by blue beads.
 A dress with separate cape is shown in brown Canton crepe. The bodice is long waisted and plain with a corded belt and long side panels The cape is of the same color and also plain, except for the corded border of the wide collar and the bottom.
