Furnishing used brick and do
ing grading work as its share of
the cost was the policy adopted
this morning by the city board of
affairs with reference to proposed
street paving in the First and
Second wards. This stand was
taken with the reservations that
the city should be Judge of what
streets should be paved and that
the. property owners should waive

from grading.
The question came up when a
representative OF citizens from
Market street appeared before the
board asking permission to use
brick being removed from Morgan
town avenue and Columbia and
State streets. He requested also
that the city pay for the grading
work done. The Market street
question was not decided definite
ly but the policy OF the city was
outlined and recorded officially on
the minutes Of the meeting.

There is little change in the sill

lines are varied somewhat from the
batteau shapes by using straps over
the shoulders, hut these straps are
much shorter than the straps OF
past seasons and really give the

will see milady Of fashion applying

wardrobe.
Designers seem to have united on
this Autumnal color scheme, even
going so far as TO use these colors
in their lighter tones for undergar-
ments.
For daytime wear, brown in Gin
namon shades and in seal shades is
considered the leading color note.
Perhaps no other color combines so
successfully with fur as does brown
and as everything is lavishly fur
trimmed this season. this alone
should make that color popular.
Dull red. burnt orange and Pea
cock colorings are used In all sorts
Of ombinations for the afternoon
gowns. Paisley. which combines
nearly all of the autumn colorings,
is again considered extremely smart
in spite of its previous popularity.
Whole suits are made Of il COM
bined with seal fur. When one
wishes to combine another color
with Paisley there is a beautiful
deep red that does admirably. II is
the same red that formed the cen
tiers Of many OF the old Paisley
shawls.

wear are shown by many of the
