NEW YORK.-After a period OF
drapings which have concealed lines,
good and bad, there is a strong ten
dency toward return of the we'll
defined waist line. Few models shown
for spring lack a belt or a sash,
something which reveals a gentle
curving at the hips.
Sashes, like the one shown on this
Schroeder frock, are rarely made of
material similar to that of the dress
itself. This is pussy willow meteor
sashed with indestructible voile and
beaded at the edge to give it weight.
Chiffon is being used much for
sashes and one finds that instead of
hemming it--for in past days every
edge must be properly hemmed-it is
simply cut and allowed to fray at
will! Chiffon thus treated is an ad-
mirable sash medium and is used on
frocks for day wear as we'll as eve
ming.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles f. Spidell
and G. w. Herren, Mrs. Spidell's
father, who have spent the winter in
California returned home last even
ing. They drove from Los Angeles
in nine days, 1,S00 miles, averaging
20 miles an hour for 80 hours run

done in improving the Santa Fe Trail
in the past year has ben remark
able,"' said Mr.. Spidell. 1.-The roads
are good practically all the way and
one can drive at steady speed. Spots
here and there, perhaps tOtaling IS
miles, are yet rough and one must
slow down, but on the whole 1t is
as good driving as anywhere in
Dickinson county off the paved
roads-and most of the way much
better" The bad places are being
rapidly improved. They had pleas
ant stay on the coast but are glad

WHAT r ABOUT pAvINoa
Something aiust be Dvne and Paw
Ing Company Has a Plan

ii. a. Kingsley, OF the kaw Paw
Ing Co., was here looking over the
downtown paving laid some ten
years ago and which has badly worm
A year ago the city filled the holes
with cement but that has worked
out along with other holes and II Is
again In bad condition. Mr.. Kings
ley offers to resurface the downtown
district with asphalt IN inches
thick for one dollar square yard.
This would cost the owner Of 20
foot lot about $50 with ten years to
pay II il desired. Mr.. Kingsley said
also that his company which laid
the South Buckeye and East Third
stret paving which has developed
into a washboard surface would re-
surface the bad portions. Those on
some residence streets are also anx-
ious to have paving. These streets
have been built up since the last
paving was done and connecting
blocks should be completed also.
Paving costs are down greatly since
last year when the matter was dis
cussed but postponed.
Some Of the downtown property
owners have favored resurfacing the
business district with brick when it
was repaired. Chapman got a price
Of $2.95 square yard for brick paw
Ing, including base, and with brick
laid over the present paving 1t ought
to be much cheaper.
The city as a whole. after an elec-
tion. can pay One-half the resurfac-
ing cost or the property owners may
pay it entirely, but as the whole
city uses business streets it Is fair
that some cost should be paid by
the whole city. A meeting Of the
property owners of the downtown
district will probably be called by !
the mayor to decide whether there
shall be resurfacing, or another at
tempt at patching to last another six
or so.

in Abilene cemetery.
Abilene will greatly miss the
sweet and kind woman who has
passed away. Josephine Graham
was born in Lincoln county, Kansas.
Oct. 4, 1872. AT the age OF seven
years she moved with the family to
Chapman, where she resided until
her marriage with Gustave Adolph
Kubach Of Abilene. on Jan. 81, 1890.
Since that time Abilene has been
her home. with the exception Of one
year spent in Enterprise. Mrs.
Kubach was member of the Pres
byterian church and was active in
everything that tended to promote
the best interests of the Organiza-
ion. She was enthusiastic In every
effort having for its object the
welfare Of the community. A few
months ago failing health compelled
her to lay aside many duties In
which she was active. Her illness
was not considered serious until a
few weeks ago a change for the
worse became evident. and In spite
Of the best that mdical skill and
tender nursing could do, she passed
to her heavenly home Thursday
April 20, at the age of 40
years, 6 months, 16 days. She is
survived by her sorrowing husband,
one sister, Mrs. Ruby Velare of Kan
sas City. three brothers. Clarence of

sympathy is felt in their sad be-
Mrs. Kubach will be

the community good friend.
