taqe of This Fabric Which Prom
ises to Be Popular.

Don't be afraid to make your new
dresses of cretonnes, and If there is
a certain design that has always APP
pealed to you particularly, then use it
for a dress and you will be sure to
he right.
They are using quaint little chintz
natterrs printed, not only on the back
grounds of white and cream, but on
really quite yellowish tan surfaces.
There are several advantages about
this latter sort of stuff In the first
place it wears well and does not so
readily acquire all the players of dust
that are continually presenting them
selves to the attention of any dress
fabric. Then the printed colors stand
out so cnarmingly against the darker
background, making the stuff more
becoming to certain dark types OF
felnininity.
The small designs are the ones

sentially dressy and has its influence
on blouses to accompany the sleeve
less jacket not entirely severe in line.
The three-piece costumes show In
teresting recognition of the impor-
lance Of the sleeve portion of the
dress or blouse beneath, and many of
the seven-eighths jacket sleeves are
made this length Intentionally, and
widened to show the puff of the long
sleeve blouses of the peasant styles
worn underneath. The use of black and
white as a color note is feature OF the
new spring modes, and the piece cos
tunes show an interesting recognition
of the Importance of the sleeve portion
Of the dress or blouse.
Another suit development which has
recently found favor is the knicker
type. But this requires a different
blouse from the models suggested by
the tailored suits, the simple tuck-in
shirt being an appropriate compile
ment.

Golden Guineas Hatched.

Grace's father keeps a flock of fine
guineas on his Bartholomew county
farm, but Grace, a pupil in Columbus
high school, was ready to turn over
all the blue ribbons for guinea raising
to Silas Mariner. She made the ac-
quaintance of "The Weaver of Rave
Ice" in her English class and she read
with wonder the story of his golden
guineas, for all of her fathers guineas
were of a dull gray color. Then test
time came and Grace, describing the
miser's joy with his gold pieces, wrote
bravely: "That morning Silas was
happy for he had Matched a new brood
of golden guineas to add to his flock :"

entirely OF the soft, creepy stuff. 1t has
a wide hem all around it's edge as
much to give it weight there as to form
a proper edge. One is made all of
white to carry out that tendency for
which the season is noted-the dress
ing in white for many OCCASIONS With
a dressy afternoon frock or with white
wooden suit, a veil of this sort would
be immensely becoming, and for the
girl who lives to dress in this purity
of tone there could be nothing

Old Babylon

The city of Babylon, when built
by Nebuchadnezzar, formed one of
the greatest and most magnificent the
world has ever seen. Ancient his
torians can find no words to describe
the grandeur of the palaces, the
splendid edifces, large gardens and
pleasure grounds, especially the hang
ing gardens, a sort of lofty terraced
structure supporting earth enough to
grow trees.

then there are the larger ones which
also come in for their share of at

It will take the summer weather to

the right path when you choose one
of them to have place in the things
that make up your summer dress col

The word "telepathy' is said to
have been invented by the society for
Psychical Research about Sc years
ago to describe the supposed process
of transmitting thoughts at distance.
1t means the communication of minds
thought transference-wit any
means known to science. Telepathy
might be compared with wireless
telegraphy, which also transmits ideas
at a distance.

WIRE PARTITIONS NOT GOOD
Drafts Permitted Which Are Bad for
Young Pigs-Do Not Give sows
Needed Seclusion.

In carrying on experimental work In
swine breeding the United States
Department of Agriculture has found
the use of wire partitions in farrow-
ing houses undesirable and is replac-
ing them with solid wooden divisions
about 80 inches high. The wire-fenc-
ing partitions permit drafts, which are
bad for the comfort and health of the
young pigs. Open partitions also per-
init sows to notice anything going on
in adjoining pens, which often causes
them to become nervous and irritable,
and sometimes to try~to fight each
other. Sows at narrowing time must
be kept as quiet as possible.

PLAYER ROLLS AND
RECORDS FREE

The Chicago Music Exchange, SO
East Van Buren, St., which is incor-
porated under the Laws of the State
of Illinois, has recently extended the
courtesies of their entire exchange to
the residents of the South Side, and
the entire colored population of the
city. They have engaged the services
of Mr. Marcus Threlkeld, of the Chi
cago Whip Staff, to represent them.
The plan of the Exchange is to
extend to the members of the organi-
cation free repair work to any and
every make of graphophone, Vic
trola, piano or player piano. To eX-
change, free of charge, all music rolls
and Victrola records of all makes,
allowing every member the opportu-
nifty of selecting new rolls or records
from any of the new that are in their
almost ineXhaustible stock of records
or rolls.
1t is to the interest of every owner
of a piano, player or Victrola to inves-
tigate this proposition, to become a
member of this Exchange, thereby
getting in line to derive all the bene-
fits advanced by the Chicago Music
Exchange. The fee for membership
is so cents to join and so cents per
month. This entities you to as manw
exchanges of records or rolls abso-
lutely free that you may desire to
make.

SAYS JAZZ MUSIC
is CRASH FROM
AFRICAN JUNGLE

NEW YORK CITY, Feb. 4-Jazz
goes back to the African jungle and Is
one of the crying evils today, according
to the Rev. DR.. Percy Stickney Grant,
rector OF the Episcopal Church OF the
Ascension, Fifth avenue and Tenth
street. DR.. Grant preached yesterday
morning on as Jazz Our National An
them?" The first part OF his sermon
was a discussion of the play of that name,
Mrs. Rita Lydig, DR.. Grants tlnancee,
sat three pews from the front and was
an interested listener.
Dr. Grant said jazz as interpreted IN
the play meant drunkenness, sex aban-
donment, domestic destruction, suicide
and quite a list OF other rather unpleas-
ant things"
Jazz is retrogression. 1t is going to
the African jungle for our music. 1t Is
a savage crash and bang. It rings the
bell for full steam astern. Its effect Is
to make you clatter, and, as Noltaire
said, to go on all tours to which /
would add-and to whisk your tail
around a tree.
Our great dance music has been pro-
.foundly pathetic. 1t seems to say how
fleeing is youth Jazz says: Cut it out !;
don't dream, don't worry about transient
things. Seize the day. Don't dream
about possibilities of pleasure There is
no pathos or no idealism about Jazz mu-
sic 1t is for sensation. In the dance,
instead of symbolism, it becomes sensu-
ality.

"CALL OF HOME"

At the States Theatre, Sunday
February 5, with Florence Nidor
Theodore Roberts and Tully Mar
shall. AT the bottom OF the stairs she
heard sound that almost stopped her
heart. 1t was a girls voice begging
God to let her die,
She hesitated moment; then
knocked at the door. There was no
response. She knocked again. Only
the tortured stricken sobs OF young
girl =,
She opened the door very gently and
stepped inside. At the bedside knelt
the disheaveled figure OF a girl.
She placed her hands on the girls
shoulder and gently turned her around
until she could see her face.
Then it was her own heart that
cried out. In that one look she read
the answer to a mystery that had shat
tered one whole family and had shut
her own fathers door against her.
And when you see Hail the Wom-
an you also will know what she saw
in the girls face.

Musicians Notes.

The Musicians Local No. 20S, con-
sisting of about 500 Colored must
clans, is one OF the strongest in the
American Federation of Music. The
public should spend the time and pay
a visit to our beautiful headquarters at
1894 South State Street.
The building represents an invest
ment of $4,000 and it is almost clear
of debt. Mr.. George Smith, the presi-
dent, has put the organization on a
first class commercial basis, and his
job was a very hard one, as he had TO
unravel great problems that were left
undone by the preceding president.
Mr. Smith, with his great faculty OF
generalship, is natural born leader,
as is evidenced by the fact that he is
gradually swinging the opposing fac
tons to his hand by forcing the laws
on all, be they little or great.
It takes this kind of a man TO hold
the reins of an organization of this
size, and Smith will be loved by all
