Later news = from Paris brings all
sorts of data about established styles
for the fall and winter season. First,
observes a fashion critic, we are al
ways confronted with bewildering
display of varied fashions, and the
trick is to keep our heads until we
see exactly what is going to stand the
stress Of time and selection and 1udg-
ment.
There are few canny ones who can
sense this thing, but they are very few
and far between. The others stand
around and fear that, before long. we
may all be dressing in Spanish regalia
or trailing our skirts along the streets.
Usually there happens happy medi-
um which is quite thoroughly salts
factory to all concerned, and which
does not revolutionize the ways OF
dress so completely as may have been
predicted.
So with two modes which are after
the-season creations fresh from Paris.
They are about as unstartling as any
two fashions could be, and, on the
other hand, they are just about as
smart as could be hoped for. After
all, II is simplicity that counts In the
long run. The French always come
back to that standard, no matter what
may be their little excursions into the
space Of more cluttered era.
The lines are longer, to be sure, but
they are simply and quietly length
ened, with every attention given to
proportion and the blending of one
line with another, until there results

WILL TELL HOW
TO DRESS WE'LL
Expert Instructor Engaged
for Better Homes Institute.

Here's a helpful hint for husbands.
When Miss Evelyn D. Hanson, an ex-
pert in matters Of feminine dress,
lectures at Tomlinson Hall as a feature
Of the Better Homes Institute, May 3, 4,
. and 8. she will tell indianapolis wives
how to dress well at a minimum Of ex-
pense.
Miss Hanson formerly was dress dem
Onstrator at the State Normal College Of
Eau Claire, Wis, and she has some very
definite and practical ideas on the sub
ject. In her talks she uses a number Of
living models with whom she demon
strates what she is talking about. She
will explain how every woman may recog
nize the style Of apparel most appropriate
for her type, how TO choose harmonious
cOlors and, in brief, how to appear to
best advantage at the least possible
cost.
The "how to dress" department was
added to the program Of the Better Homes
Institute by Ross Crane, head of the ex-
tension department OF the Chicago Art
Institute, and principal lecturer on the
program to be given in indianapolis. Mr.
Crane chose Miss Hanson for the posi-
ton Of dressing instructor because he
considered her one of the country's fore
most authorities on the subject.
Dress said Mr.. Crane, should be
based on four or five definite principles !;
1t should be taken out of the realm OF the

much to the chagrin of the northern
negro. There has been more homes pur-
chased in indianapolis in the last three
years by colored people from the South
than in the preceding twenty years and
the tide has now turned. The southern
negro is no longer compelled to live in
Shacks and disreputable tenant houses
and alleys, but he is now a home owner
and a landlord, and a law-abiding citi-
zen. 1t is well enough to say anything
honorable in behalf of ones candidate,
but to attempt to SANDER a people who
have shown no Bolshevistic tendencies,
but have freely given of the husbands,
sons, brothers and money and thousands
their lives for a democracy which is de-
MED, and when he attempts to ask his
right in common with other citizens or
speak at public meetings, or present his
views upon public questions, no is
classed as g Bolshevist and as an unde-
sIrable citizen.
THE candidate who stands for such
utterances or refuses to denounce such
utterances can only expect to be showed

at the polls by the righteous indignation

So, since the count had to leave even
sooner than DR.. Brecht, he said he would
take the important dispatches to Berlin
himself.
The regret of Dr. Brecht that he
might not do this service for the father

leave, under such circumstances, possibly
overshadowed the disappointment he felt
at being denied the privilege of carrying
messages to the imperial government.

they found the restaurant had been raid

smashed. The patrons had fed to seek

and no fear of any listening ear at the

haphazard. For example. the frst Of these
principles is utility. Utility is the es-
sential, no matter what the dress. An
other, the dress should suit and empha-
size the wearer's individuality. We will

herself. Another principle is that Of
color, one that is violated as much as
any other. The whole trend nowadays
seems to be toward simplicity, despite

are purely a commercial proposition"

the Indianapolis Real Estate Board. The
program consists of nine lectures on
various topics, ranging from the proper
