Fanciful Pajamas.

Pajamas for milady started out quite simple, following the lines of those for men. But they just couldn't stay that way. Oh, no. And why should they' So they considered silk for material, especially crepe de chine, and added tucks and laces and things until behold, this charming set. It tried to be simple and squar- ish and all. It hemmed its coat of pink crepe de chine with tucks of georgette, that turned square corner running up the front, too. The collars and cuffs were of tucked material, not emitting those on the trousers.
 Another pajana set would be fine for travelling. It decided on gray crepe de chine, piping itself on all pockets with coral. A round collar of coral finished neck, and all its cuffs, too.
 Negligees look good enough to eat. A princess slip had slipped among them. demanding to be noticed. It was made of white net, gathered at the waist with a wide pink ribbon in casing. Again at the hem the pink ribbon fmked sn it's easing, edged with a wide ruffle of the net. Beautiful hand embroidery decorated the bodice in a triangular motive, repeated again at the hem in front.
 Of these two negligees, which will you choose? One is pink crepe de chine, the other hand embroidered net with filet insertion. The net one conceals, but partly, dainty slip of

VYOU may have always thought that
 shoes were made of leather, with = possibly a few of cloth, satin ol brocade. But this year you will have to enlarge your ideas of materials, for they are going to spring one of their clever little surprises on the un- suspecting publbic. This season will launch an sll-fur boot.
 Oh, no, not woody fur--at least, not long-haired fur. That would make a clumsy bit of footwear, wouldn't it :? Even the tiniest foot could not stand such an appearance. Although to be sure one envisages the Eskimo belle clad in long-haired boots. But then consider the weather.
 Dainty Fur Slippers.
 No. This new shoe will be made of American broadtail, fur resembling Persian lamb. It seems to have pe- culiar advantages. It will not crack or split Rain only serves to tighten its natural curl. There will be many colors, gray, brown, tan and black. All of these may be washed with soap and water. White needs to be cleaned with gasoline. There will be combinations of colors, too, like tan and brown, black and gray. And bright colors, pinks, jades, blues, for milady's even- ing wear, and the twinkling shoes Of mademoiselle of the chorus, will be re- produced by our ever-brilliant manu- lecturers.
 No, Betty. I do not believe oxfords or street boots will be made of this new material. However, you can wear a pretty pump or strap slipper of fur. There will be many fancy pat terms from which to choose, but for your street shoes you will have to be

lntriicacy
 and
 Lingerie
By Marjorie Howe Dixon

rACH year brings out more fascin-
 ating and interesting models in !. lingerie styles, charming in their lovely daintiness. Undergarments that were stiffly starched and plain, as in the good old days, when endur- ance was the chief demand, practic- ally do not exist these days.
 Any woman can call to mind the severe undecorated garments of her mothers day, starched so they scratched one, ugly, uninterestingly plain. Since woman's heart has al- ways delighted in pretty attractive lingerie, she had discarded those old stiff ideas, and now wears soft silks and linens, georgettes and Italian silks.
 Corsets, too, have long since yielded to the popular and sensible demand for comfort. Many are made with in- serts of elastic with few bones, or entirely of elastic. This year has brought out soft garment called a corselette, combining brassiere and corset, to be worn at home when a real corset is not required.
The Coconino sun., 1921-11-04

THE INCREASING reluctance men
 are showing to discard oxfords = even in cold weather originally occasioned the necessity of a heavy model that fathered the brogue.
 Although the vogue was originally intended for oxfords, the treatment has extended to shoes. Heavily orna- mented, they produced a novelty in mems shoes that was very acceptable after the exclusive supremacy of ultra conservative English walking models. So popular did the style become, that 1t was retained through the entire summer, and now is advanced from the novelty class to staple fashion that will probably continue as fall shoe requisite.
 Comfort Important Factor.
 Their roomy lasts and square tips are so comfortable and easy on the feet that this influence is noted iil all of the favored shoe fashiors. Even the exclusive English models are dis

pink silk, with accordian pleated skirt sashed with blue.
 The crepe de chine negGgee took a front panel, with wide hem just be- yond filet insertion, and joined it to a. similar back panel. Then it tied a sash around the two. At the round neck line it wore lovely pastel bou- quet fiatly soft as demure decora- tion.

One OI the nOVelIleS III tnlS garment is corset made of silk braid in flesh pink. The braid is stitched where the bone castings are, but free in be- tween. Another new little idea it boasts is the use of fiat pearl buttons on tabs of the braid. Wide lace trims the lower edge of this dainty affair. Another corset was no wider than sash. To be sure it combines satin and tricot in flesh pink, but it really supported garters, that's all. Variety of Styles.
 Bodices and brassieres are simply intending in profusion of styles and combinations of lace, silks and rb- bons. An Italian silk brassiere is one of these. Very popular are the hand embroidered net bodices, with lovely little flowers of silk in pastel tints, reposing gracefully on filet lace as if they enjoyed their part in the charm of the whole.
 The bride who will be choosing her trousseau will surely have thrilling time. One wonders how she can ever come to decision. One set her heart will demand at once, for it seems to want to belong especially to her. It must have been the demure orange blossoms that gave it away.
 Not content to have matching bodice, bloomers, chemise and stepin drawers, it must needs add cap. This last trifle was nothing but clever coronet with knots of orange blossoms trailing loops of ribbon at each end. Filet insertion with pointed edge graces all the dainty parts to this whole. each one of which proudly wears its knot of orange blossoms and white ribbons.
 Irresistible Lingerie.
 Others among the sets to match have their own breathless interest. Could any woman resist a raspberry comfection of filet and georgette, combining filet strapped chemise with step-in boomers? Or will she rather be intrigued by vhite Italian silk set of bloomers and vest, stripped with blue? The top of the chemise wears yoke of the blue crepe de chine.
 Breakfast coats for morning wear, --pajamas for she night, aad negli- gees any time between, each hour of the day demands its own lingerie.
 For msrning there is a wide choice among pretty coats of taffeta, change able silks, pussy willows, crepe de chine and embroidered muslin, for ;gracing the table when husband wants his morning cup of coffee. But just one mmment One cunning new little garment thxt win not be overlooked. And that is black and white noisily checked bathrobe. Before she appears at the table she will have hung up this. kmcno shaped affair, with it's wide band of yellow, all made of nothing less than bath 'towelling.

PRESIDENT HARDING
SAYS NEGRO MUST WORK
OUT RACE PROBLEM

Oxford, Pa, June 6.-President
Harding today made this statement
with reference to the recent race riots
at Tulsa, Okla:
God grant there never be such q
spectacle in this country"
The President stopped off for a few
moments on his return trip to Wash
lngton, and addressed briefly the
members Of the graduating class of
Lincoln University near Oxford.
The colored race itself must work
to solve the race problem. President
Harding declared.
"One OF the greatest difficulties of
popular government is that the citi-
zenshp expects the government to
DO what ought to do for itself" the
President said. mo government can
wave a magical wand and take race
from bondage to citizenship in half
century. The colored race, to come
INTO It's own, must do the work itself"

LOCAL AUTOMOBILE FIRM
DECLARES DIVIDEND

The Grenada Auto Co.. Inc, has
recently paid dividend to its stock
holders of $240O.OO after passing a
nice sum to surplus account. This
dividend represents the earnings over
a period of nine and one-half months
during 1920. The dividend would
have been paid earlier but for the
fact that the officers decided it
would be best to defer payment until
certain papers held by the concern
were cancelled. MIR. J. H. Neely is
president of this growing company
and the business is under his direct
management. Its success is due in a
large measure to his tireless energy
and capabiity.

Gray Guests of City of Tupelo.
A Great Time For Them.

Quite a number of the Grenada

1t is differen. for one who never
had the experience of these grand
old men to appreciate the feelings
that thrill their souls wEc they can
get together to calk over. the events
OF those days when the men of the
two sections Of this country were ar
Irayed against each other to decide a
question which had been chanlpioned
and threatened more by tie victors
IN the contest againct the question
than by the v,.nquished
The hearts of Mississippiahs beat
true to those who survive the cause
OF the ColfedCracy. 1t is good for
the rising generation cf MississipDj
that these grand old men still abide
here. They are projecting the in
tegrity of their ma. hood. through
herolsm and patriotism, as well rs
that of their comrades who have
gone on before. into the lives of the
present generation. They know the
hardshlps of war and the problems Of
fCcOnStSucuon" after war, and it is
a pity that those Of the present hour
do not emulate them in self-Gevise
a.d in not trying to do al the big
things at once.
Tupelo never halfway does any
hing. That city can be depended
lpOn to give the vets one of the best
entertainments they have ever had.
AS these noble characters lay down
ife's burdens, may their so.s and
daughters and their sons and daugh-
er's sons, take up these threads of
ife where they left off, and shove
orth all that is sublime in their
ives in their own.
