TT is interesting to be in New York

spreads far across the continent What
women wear at the horse show, at the
opera, at the theaters and restaurant
dances is q subject of never-failing in

waited in the bread line to catch the
evasivs eye Of waiter who might be
persuaded to give one q table around
the expensive circle where the toddle
was born for lack Of dancing space.
Somewhere in the world that amuses
itself fashions must be born. Some
where there must be Marshal Foch
Of fashion who leads a gown to victory.
1t Is at such places where the mighty
congregate that one finds the things
that count worn by the people who have
the power of leadership. And it must
be in the middle of a swir!ing cyclonic
movement of peoples who represent all
shades Of opinion. not among people
who watch to see what the next-door
neighbor wears in order to do likewise.
co when the winter comet Of fash
ions came into sight in the night

they were to be for the rest Of the sea-

all parts Of the continent. for do not
think. oh. gentle mid-continental. that
the little handful Of women born in New
York are the ones who set the gay fash
ions Of this gayest of electric-lit society.
It Is your nsigkbors who is here, wearing

people what they wear in Gotham. it is
the girl from Dakota. the bride from
Kansas, the mother from California. the
debutante from Idaho. the matron from

NEW YORK, May 27.-Connec-
ticut's "non-bigamous bigamy' in
dustry continues to flourish!
Are you tired of your wife?
Are you tired of your husband?
Why bother with divorce?
IT you have no moral scruples, you
can scurry down to Connecticut with
the girl or man of your heart, tell a
lie or two, and get married quietly.
They won't prosecute you, or trou-
BILE you, or bother you, unless you
remain there overnight. II you DO
that, you're a bigamist; If you don't
you are not.
That's the technicality in Connec-
ticut jurisprudence that has blazed
the way for half a dozen men OF
more or less prominence, including
a New Jersey jurist and a New York
broker, to take unto themselves Sec
ond wives without divorcing their
first wives.

In his application, Silver said he
