WOMEN

MISS EUDoRA CLOVER.
BY MARGARET h. DOWNING.

BY MARGARET ID. DOWNING.
WASHINGTON, September "a
When Chief Justice Taft was Presi-
dent he often emphasized his belief
that the most useful type of woman
was one who selected career to de-
vote her best talents to, outside OF
the regularly accepted formula to
years and then to marry. He held
that matrimony should be the result
Of such endeavors and in which two
congenial people would naturally be
associated, and not an end to be
pursued in frivols.
Miss Eudora Clover, daughter of the
late Admiral Rich ardson Clover and
his wife, who wa<, Miss Dora Miller,
daughter of the late Associate Justice
Miller, from California. can measure
up to the high standard set by the
Chief Justice and. incidentally. can be
used as the type of woman produced
by the times and by the dignities con-
ferred on her sex by the nineteenth
amendment. Miss Clover has recent
ly, after completing a two-year course
at the California College of Agricul-
ture, taken over the entire manage
ment of the great stock ranches in
herited from her grandfather at
Cloverdale, and is devoting all her
time to improving conditions eco
nomically and in the esthetic sense.
This vast property. with a mansion
which lies on the slope of a gentle
hill in Sonoma county. Calf. was
during the lifetime of Mr.. Justice
Miller his plaything and his delight.
He had filled the hills and canyons
with improved breeds Of sheep. cattle
and horses. and he was never too
busy to plan improvements for his
ranch or to purchase better stock.
When his only child. Miss Dora Mil

August in order to open the American
season in time for the. buyers from
the States, who assemble in New
York. they carried with them
strong bs1ief that the reign of black
was over. AS the September co1lec-
tions at the French houses were OF
more Importance to residents of Paris
because they were arranged for the
civilian and not for the commercialist
it is interesting to know that these
collections also emphasized the pass
ing Of black.
There are a few designers who
show black costumes cut after the
fashion of those that have been worn
for two years They insist that the
French woman is not ready to go into
colors; that she has not the money to
permit herself TO depart from the
economy of black. Not that the buy
ing of black begins Fin economy; far
from i1ss.,for, onl lys the best quality OF
black fabrics. are.worth. the purchas-
ing. Where economy begins is in the
mid-serxice.. of black, clothes. Every
woman knows that the assembling OF
accessories, to each colored gown is
where the genuine expense must be
met in the wardrobe; it is in the as
sembling. Of; hats and slippers, OF
sfockiuEs and underwear, of fur and
wraps that the leakage OF money
occurs.
ny the same reckoning the choice
ID of one color to run throughout
the costume saves money. When
woman is an amateur in the choice of
clothes, the choice of one: color often
averts disaster: When the French
woman decided to choose black as
the leading color of the hour, the
Americans followed suit. They in
variably do. They do not follow the
nakinr of French clothes as slav-
ishly as they once did, but they take
French inspiration as their own. This

Miss Glover Is practically Wash
ingtonian, as all the great events OF
her life have been staged here. As Il
child she attended school with little
maids who are still her closest
friends. She made her debut with as
much eclat as that which attended
her mothers and reigned supreme
among her set, until the war perma-
nently turned her thoughts away
from social pleasures. She gave two
years in France during the war, and
another twelve months to the recon
struction committees. in need OF a
proficient French scholar who also
knew figures the mysteries of wire

typewriting.

this spring, when Miss Clover. after
completing her studies under experts
and with most satisfactory percent
ages. took over the entire problem
and intends to restore every feature
Of the ranch to the perfection it had
reached under Justice Miller. For this
decision the state of California feels
itself profoundly her debtor. since the
absentee landlord has been one OF its
trials, with the resulting loss of good
stock and first-class produce. Miss
Clover intends to show what can be
done when one Is really In earnest.
But she is not neglecting her social
obligations in pursuit of this worthy
aim. Her home lies on the highway
OF travel, and having lived in nearly
every country of the globe. few days

in to greet her. She frequently makes
visits to San Francisco and is always

 NEW FRANCHISE
Opening of the Superior-Mianai Highway Leads to Filing of Applications From Companies
 That Want to Operate Over It

PHOENIX, June 2.-In anticipa- ton of the opening for general use of the Superior Miami highway, a large number of stage lines have applied to the corporation commits sion for permits to operate over the new route between Phoenix and Globe.
 These hearings have been set for June 20, at which time the commits sion will attempt to decide which concern or concerns are entitled to a franchise.
