Partisan Modes
Get Preference

Large numbers Of imported gowns
have recently been exhibited in the
studios Of New York merchants, and,
from all reports, writes New York
fashion correspondent, American wom-

with an eagerness that indicates they
care for the Partisan touch when they
can afford 1t. A strong Spanish infiu-
ence is felt among the gowns created
by the French designers. Martial ct
Armand show a gown called "Con-
suela" which is distinctly Spanish in
character, evidenced particularly by
the festoons of black lace which hang
from the skirt. Another gown at this
house has a corsage made of an ex-
tremely wide ribbon draped and
fastened at one side In large chou.
And still another of the eveningsgowns
made by these designers has an I'M
derskirt of gray silk lace covered with
shorter skirt and topped by a
corsage of rose taffeta. There is a
sort Of guimpe Of the gray lace that
can be worn under the corsage of
taffeta and by this means dinner
gown is transformed into one that can
be worn for formal afternoon occa-
sionS.

models is composed of three f1ouhces
set one above the other. When these
flounces are pushed back to show the
foundation, another material is dis
closed, and that is something, which,
by means of the contrast, adds a new
beauty to the cape. One of these
capes is of brick-colored wooden cloth,
superimposed over a. foundation Of
black taffeta. Another is Of blue

gray silk crepe. Still another is made

Perhaps 1t Is the effect of gaining

but, anyway, certain it is that the girls

turning TO good old-fashlOned cOrncob
pipes as solace for the languors of

Some time ago several young women
In New York decided that cigarettes
were too expensive, and that they
ought to join the great world move
ment for financial conservation by sub
stituting pipes for the more delicate
joy But at that time ordinary pipes
were not tried, usually small, ladylike
ones being selected.
Now, however, substantial cOrncObs,
cheap, picturesque and nOnbreakable,
are the favorites.

respectable and conservative" one Of
the cOrncOb devotees explained. MANY
Of our great-grandmothers smoked

SEES TURKISH RULE AMUSING
English Author Finds Funny Side to
Life In Jerusalem Under
the Crescent.

The tradition of Turkish rule in
Palestine as one finds 1t In Jerusalem
Is simply a Joke, declares q. X. Ches-
terton in his book, 1.-THE New Jeru-
salem." All the stories about 1t are
jokes and often very good jokes. My
own favOrite incident is that which
Is still cOrnmemOrated in the English
cathedral by an enormous hole in the
floor.
The Turks dug up the pavement
looking for concealed British artillery,
because they had been told that the
bishop had given his blessing to two
cannOns, The bishop had, indeed, re-
Gently appointed two canOns to the
service of the church, but he had not
secreted them under the floor of the
chancel. There was another agree
able incident when the Turkish au-
thorities, by an impulsive movement
Of religious federation, sent for
Greek priest to bury Greek soldiers,
and told him to take his choice in
heap of cOrpses Of all creeds and
cOlOrs.
But at once the most curious and
the most common touch of comedy
Is the perpetual social introduction to
solid and smiling citizens who have
been nearly hanged by the Turks. The
fortunate gentleman seems still to be
regarding his escape with n broad
grin. If you were introduced to a
polite Frenchman who had come
straight from the guillotine, or to an
affable American who had only just
vacated the electrical chair, you would
feel faint curiosity about the whole
story. If friend introduced some
body saying, "My friend Robinson;
his sentence has Just been commuted
to penal servitude," or MY Uncle
William, just come from Dartmoor
prison." your mind and perhaps lips
would family form the syllables "What
for" But evidently, under Turkish
rule, being hanged was like being
knocked down by cab 1t might hap

ANYWAY, PROPELLER is GONE
Dispute Now Is Whether II Was Torn,
Bitten, or Blown of, But Il
Is Missing.

What happened to the starboarSi
propeller of the United Fruit liner Cal
amares, recently arrived at New York
from Central American ports and Ha-
vana. puzzled her skipper, officers and
passengers. who discussed the mystery
siIsce the ship threw fit on the after-
noon Of Wednesday, January 10, in
the placid Caribbean and started wab-
bling, heaving, pitching, tossing, rolling
ana doing other things that no healthy
ship does all at the same time.
Capt. Harry Spencer stopped the
liner and the chief engineer examined
the starbOard propeller. He found
that one of the blades had been torn,
bitten or blown off. Some surnised
that a sea serpent might have nIbbled
mt the propeller and others said out
right there was no doubt steel-eat-
ing Caribbean shark had bitten off the
blade.
Captain Spencer derided these the
Ories, declaring the blade had been
blown off by the force Of subaque-
GUS earthquake, as the Caamares be-
gan rocking violently a moment after
the mysterious force was first felt.
And there the matter rests.

Fish Thrive Under Water.

Water never gets colder than about
80 degrees. So no matter how thick
the day, and no matter how thick the
ice upon the stream or lake, the fishes
are enjoying temperature of about
80 degrees, and they move about in
the water and gather supplies very
well at that temperature. Through
the clear ice one may see fish with
their backs against It, where the tenn
perature must be 80 degrees, and II
you strike the ice above them light
ly they dart away with pretty good
speed. If you will strike the ice i'm
mediately above them with the back
of an AK, or sledge hammer. you
will kill the fish. The cOncussiOn
does the business and the fish will
turn up its white belly upward, al
ways. 1t is common enough thing
in some regions for the boys to kill
the fish through the ice, and then
to cut hole and get them out
