a colored frock under black cloak.
But in general the passion for black
is so strong that even the embroidered
collars and girdles which appeared on
some Of the models Of the early season
are now eliminated-the garments be-
ing made entirely in black. Gray hose
is sometimes permitted. =
Sleeves, If any, continue wide-the
close sleeve being reserved for the
close-fitting corsage. While Paris cou-
turiers abide by straight and slender
silhouette, varied effects are achieved
in diverse interpretations of the sleeve.
It is unusual to find a detail of dress
take upon itself such a prominent
place and thus attain a position Of
foremost Importance. Throughout this
mode the japanese influence predomi-
mates.

CRAZE FOR BLACK IN DRESS
Frocks and Wraps Alike Are Made Of
DuII-surfaeed stuffs-crepe
de Chine Used.

There is q decided movement In the
direction of long skirts-but women
are not yet ready for the long skirt,
which will be worn, If at all, on cere-
monious occasions only, asserts a
writer in Good Housekeeping. How
ever, skirts everywhere are a bit
longer-decidedly on the downward
trend. Cheruit, at the moment, oddly
sponsors skirt which is longer in the
back than in the front.
The craze for black In dress Is al
most amusing. Frocks and wraps
alike are made of black crepe de chine
or crepe marocain-always the dull
surfaced stuffs. Black satin is worn
but little, although we hear 1t is to be
smart this winter. The greatest sim
plicity prevails, frock being smart
according to it's simplicity. Thus do
really smart women distinguish them
selves from the nouveaux riches.
We see an attempt at color here
and tharc at the races-a red hat Or

KNOCKERS, SKIRT, COAT, CAPE
Combination Affords Outfit for Both
Street and Sport Wear-Fans
to Match the Hat.

One smart suit seen recently had
Knockers, circular skirt, a hip length
belted coat and three-quarter length
circular caM. Cape and skirt might
be worn together If desired. with
sport shirt of soft silk. The coat and
skirt when combined make up con-
ventional street suit, and for vigorous
sports or long-distance hikes the coat
or cape with breeches complete de-
cidedly practical outfit.
Fans have firmly established them
selves as charming adjunct to the
costume and are now being designed to
match or blend with the hat worn.
The range of reddish browns such
as rust, henna and sumac are good
looking and they are being vigorously
featured. Black makes an effective
for these shades, and 1t is
much seen, silk seutache braid In vari-
GUS widths appearing on many wool
Jersey dresses in reddish tones.

Worse. and More Of II.

A clergyman was a guest at a
Fourth Of July dinner.
When Jean saw red, white, and
blue minis on the table she exclaimed /:
''Those mints look just like poker
chips, don't they?"
The parents were embarrassed by
this familiar reference to so uneccle-
siastical a game, and after the de-
parture Of the guest told the child that
it was impolite to speak Of food on
the table.
Three months later the clergyman
was again a guest, and, eager to make
amends for her former social error,
Jean remarked: do you remember
when you were here before that said
the mints looked like poker chips?
Well, they didn't bit"

SHAWL IN DEMAND
Spanish Decoration Popular for
Evening Wear.
Emerald Green Favorite Shade, With
Deep Border Of Embroidery in
Different CoIors.

For evening use the Spanish shawl
richly embroidered-is In great de-

these big shawls. They may easily be
made to look quite ordinary, or a
clever woman can make them SUI
premely elegant by the right twist of
fringed end. And fringe Is Of first
Importance in this matter.
A charming evening gown recently
designed was lavishly trimmed with
soft fringes, and over the dress
was thrown magnificent manton de
manila-or embroidered shawl made
of thick crepe. These shawls are made
in very rich colors, and the embroid-
cries are so varied that the ensemble
resembles the brilliant wing of a
tropical butterfly.
Emerald green is a favorite color

BRIGHT Beads on Black.

Beads have been for time relegat-
ed, as a trimming, to the cheaper
type of dress, but have now been
brought back for use on the more ex-
elusive models. Colored jewel effects
in the shades seen in garnets, rubies
and emeralds are introduced into dull
black dresses. The designs are massed
in interesting ways so that the
effect of this trimming, especially in
the evening, is very beautiful, though
it needs to be designed and carried out
with artistic skill.

ConcernIno the Poppy.

To the farmer the poppy is an IN.
welcome weed. In the old days. how
ever, the flower was held In great es-
TEEN, being dedicated to Ceres, the
goddess Of agriculture. It played an
important part in harvest-home cele-
brations and other ceremonies, and
was protected in the countryside. To
day, in Switzerland, the poppy is used
as love, token. Girls place petal
In the palm Of their left hand and
strike 1t with their right. If the petal
bursts with sharp pop" the lover
in the case is held to be sincere. II
there Is no sound the girl believes
him false.

THE SUNDAY EVENING SERVICE.

The Congregational Church is
planning to hold it's Sunday night
services in Village Hall, where it
will use the moving picture machine
as an adjunct to the preaching SER
vice. The motion picture has been
made an instrument for Christ's
teachings. It's power for good is just
as great as its power for harm.
Around it can be built a popular SER
vice that will develop a new and
effective means of appeal as a serv-
ant of the spoken Gospel. 1t will
cot be a substitute for the sermon
but an aid to it. Eye-gate is as use
full as ear-gate. Spiritual impressions
received through the eyes are as
valuable as those coming through the
ears. 1t is designed to supplement
the Scripture, Prayer, Music and
Sc mon by half-hour of Religion by
Picture.
The first service in the Hall will be
held Sunday, May 18th.

i" 'OSTLER JOE

In the days when the public taste
ran to strong, blood-stirring plays,
"'Ostler Joe" stood out as being head
and shoulders above the ordinary
melo-drama, and the Nellie Gill Play
ers believe they are giving you one
of the best of it's kind anywhere.
Those Of you who have read the
famous poem of "'Ostler Joe" will be
glad to see Mr. Henry in that char
acter, and Miss Gill has a most cor
genial part as the erring wife, Annie,
who leaves her husband and child to
go to London, where she becomes a
famous actress. In the third act,
there is one of the most sensational
incidents ever introduced into any
play-it is guaranteed to make the
audience actually stand on it's feet"
although there is no cause for alarm
its all in the play.
If you really enjoy good comedy,
combined with strong emotional act
ing, "'Ostler Joe" will surely give
you an excellent evenings entertain

BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

Some fifty friends of Richard Bar
rett assembled at his home on last
Monday evening in honor of his
birthday. The project originated with
the young folks of the family and
was intended as surprise on Dad
in order to give him a good time"
Not having been born yesterday and
previous experience having made him
wary the surprisers were soon the
ones surprised by Dicks" full
knowledge of their little scheme, not
however to the detriment of the
pleasure of the occasion. Events
showed that while not quite as nimble
of foot as earlier in life, good music
had power to inspire him to some
ability, and given time to draw in
his breath, his wind is still good,
blowing out at one blast all, save one,
cf fifty three lighted candles orna-
menting the birthday cake, a marvel
of culinary art, the product of
"Sadie's" skill in that line, brought
in and partaken of, following the
serving of the usual refreshments of
cake and ice cream
The gCod time desired was certain
ly a great success for as the guests
departed at an early hour on Tues
day morning, they assured their host
OF the pleasant evening they had en-
Joyed and wished him many happy
returns. What the friends who had
three hours carriage drive ahead
of them, said or thought before
arriving home is, perhaps, another
