Mrs. c.. Il know this is not In
your line, but l do hope you Will
answer 1t! I would like to know
what general style you would ad-
yiso me to choose in making dress
of dark blue crepe de chine with
dark blue fringe trimming? j am
under so and quite stout. How
should I trim it around the meek?
And how put the fringe on?'
Answer: l just happens that /
have recently seen dress in a
shop, which was made of crepe de
chine with fringe trimming trim
ming and which l believe would
suit YOU in style. OF course | do
not know where you could get a
pattern for such dress, but | will
describe it for you in hopes that
you can perhaps find such a pat
tern-or make 1t up without a pat
tern at all. The skirt was me-
dunn wide, with generous hem.
and an over-skirt half covered 1t,
the fringe being put onto the bot
tom of this over-skirt with grace
full effect. At the waistline was a
crush girdle of crepe de chine. The
waist hooked on one shoulder, with
q, simple blouse effect across the
front, and bound armholes. The
three quarters sleeves, ending with
fringe, were set into a waistlining.
The neck was finished with two
inch wide erru-colored "Val" in
sertion gathered at the top and fin
ished with a narrow lace edging to
match. OF course the neck of the
crepe de chine blouse had to be
cut quite low in order to set in this
neck-finish. without exception, it
was one of the most graceful
dresses have seen in several years.
If you wished to. you could hand
embroider some motifs on the top
center part of the blue blouse, US
ing dark blue embroidery silk. II
you have not enough fringe for the
sleeves as we'll as for the over
skirt, you could finish the sleeves
like the neck with the ecru lace.

what to do to stop the hair from
falling out Of furs? have Just

STAY OFF THE PROPERTY
Stanford Herald.1

We hate to the reports in various places where
railroad strikers are resorting to vioenee Many
times the strikers have nothing do with this violence
and it is their i'll advised friends who think they
helping the cause by tearing up property and having
discussions with the guards and doing other overt acts
Our advice to the railroad that strike is to
stay away from the railroad property They have no
business out there and by remaining around the prop
crty they are only starting trouble Tor later
they will become engaged in a discussion-a senseless
discussion usuallyhat will wind up in fights, arrests,
Jail and the of the striking gets
black eye all the country.

On railroad property 1t belongs to the railroad COM
panes every American citizen should respect the
decree 1t means just what it says and Will have the
government behind it, There have been several L. S
deputy marshals sworn in at Sanford to enforce this
decree remains with the striking railroad men here
and everywhere as to whether they win their cause
by acting sober minded patriotic American citizens
or otherwise Ie remains with the men TO whether
pablo will class them good citizens otherwise
and the public will be final arbiter.
Our advice to them BEFORE the strike, after the strike
and now is to so act that their conduct will be above
leproach for their every action is judged for all. The
nn0cent suffer with the guilty and if the men do not
go the railroad property at any time while the
strike is they will not get into trouble and if any
trouble starts it cannot be laid on the men.
This is not only common sense advice but it is real

country will soon be a second Russia. The law must
and shall be upheld and maintained regardless of
whether it suits 1t is the law and law and
it is upheld in the royal by all true American

authorities to pave the eighty miles between Waycross

distance to take care of or forty miles, Georgia has gone
ahead with her portion of the contract of the finest
stretches of road in the Southeast extending from the St.
Mary's to Waycross. Florida has evidently broken
faith
So the ST. Augustine meeting today will no doubt put
up good stiff argument with the State road department

What is said about the reckless use of bond money the
construction OF brick paving laid loose sand and then

average citizen sit up and do some thinking his her

highway between Jacksonville and ST. Augustine, of
the worst stretches of paved road anywhere in the South
road now some six or years old and that has
been called on to take care IF what has been the initial
invasion of Florida by Auto obile. The first machines
ever operated not only in Foida but into Florida used
that highway. ST. Johns and Duva counties have spent
probably million dollars in connecting South Jackson

A PAYING INVESTMENT

Florida towns and cities possessing ambitions in the
matter of providing accommodations and entertainment
for winter visitors have now made up their civic minds
that some outlay of money is quite essential In round
figures Miami is planning budget of 100000 tor
publicity purposes while St. Petersburg is close second
with $4,000. Somebody nay ask if it pays; possibly
the best answer lies in the Submission OF tax valuation
figures which, in the case of ST. Petersburg are now
million dollars Those of us who knew the St. Peters
burg of ten years ago scarcely realize how rapidly
the city has developed AS for Miami the valuation
figures available the instant but probably
more than fifty million Collars II of interest to stu
dents of civic affairs 10 ut ST. Petersburgs budget
calls for an expenditure Of more than a million dollars
for operating expenses, TIL total including of
the municipality owned public utilities. Allowing for
the from these plants, the amount to be raised
by taxation will be in excess of $4,000. The item
of $4,000 fer publicity includes the engagement of the
Royal Scotch FIighanders band, expenses for upkeep
Of tours headquarters the providing of amusements,
booklet and newspaper advertising Another good scheme
adopted by ST. Petersburg is the promotion Of ST. Peters
burg clubs here AND there throughout the NcrueIn re-
sort centers This brings direct to the Sunshine
City through the personal missionary work of the club
members who talk ST. Petersburg their friends, hand
cut literature and induce prospects to subscribe for the
St. Petersburg newspapers that they may become
familiar with life and living conditions in that city. In
other words ST. Petersburg has the tourist business down
to scientific basis making hat there missing
links between the first step of interesting the prospect and
the final step of welcoming another and seeing
to that he or she is taken care Of after arrival and then
made to feel at home all through the Heretofore
