The French openings are still going

The French openings are still going
on. We have a few stray hints Of the
course that fashions will take in the
coming season, especially the conserv-
alive fashions. And, after all, 1t Is
these which will be the most accepta-
Bile, observes a fashion authority In
the New York Times.
We have the first faint signs of what
the styles will be and they are always
thrilling. They signify so much, roo'
before our minds become involved with
extra frills and f1ounces, for the ideas
that one accumulates at this time of
the year are apt to be sound. One can
refuse to think and then take what
the shops have to offer, but one will
never be as happy in the result as If a
certain amount of originality had been
brought to bear, and ones own notions
and conceptions had been added to
the sum total of the tendencies Of the
newer styles.

THE PARADISE FISH

"We're very popular in the aquar-

Mrs. Paradise Fish.
"And they say nice things about
us, too," said Mr. Paradise Fish.
at is not kind to keep pleasant
thoughts to ones self. Now, of
course, as a fish / cannot go about
explaining everything think and feel,
but show what enjoy the best way
I can.
II show that I enjoy my food. I
show that I am a bright fish.
"Oh yes, 1 show what I can so as
to let others know when I am enjoy
ing myself.
For example they all know that l
will eat anything a gold fish will eat
and that my desires i'll the way of
food are not hard to follow.
ITO be sure I do not take little
bites Of food. But then why speak
Of my table manners?
II never sit at table and so am
not supposed to have table manners.
"And anyway 1 may take big bites,
but have pretty nice manners.
Eyes, my aquarium manners are
very good.
1T can change my color. From be-
ing a brown fish with handsome
stripes I can change into lovely
shades Of red and blue and green.

food, happiness, excitement, pleasure
will make me turn pretty shade.

lovely coloring and beauty.

the climbing perch does when he is

Mine are not like that.

and they eat flies and insects while
they live in swampy places

"And I am a healthy fish, too.
II don't see why I should make
everyone fuss over me just because
am beautiful-Tm not delicate and !
am not going to pretend to be deli

s"Ah yes, 1 think I've told pretty
nearly all about myself as I've been
asked to do. And I must tell about
the little ones, too"
"Of course, you must" said Mrs.
Paradise Fish. "And all that you

Bright hats far outnumber black.
Flower-trimmed hats are numerous.
Small black lace-trimmeG hats are
seen in surprising numbers.
Black suede pumps trimmed in pat
ent leather are much in evidence.
Red chiffon gowns and those in
coral and flame are beaded and plain.
Canton crepe in gray and beige is
used for a large rejection of plated
and tucked frocks.
A number of smart suit effects are
shown with figured jacket and plain
skirts in dressy materials and modes.
The one-strap pump and the pump
with elastic at the side, both in black.
are worn with gray or beige stock
ings.
Crepe de chine capes, shirred at the
shoulder line, are collared with caba-
chon roses of the crepe and are an
outstanding feature.
Chiffon dance frocks are encoun-
tered more often than those of other
materials. While skirts are longer
they have lost none of their petal-like
qualities.
One of the smart short separate
Jackets in paisley that have been
noted in Paris made it's appearance re-
Gently. The model combined the fig
ured material with broad bands of
plain blue duvetine at the neckline and
cuffs, with narrow brown fur pipings.
The coat was cut to bring one large
pear-shaped motif diagonally across
the front, with low semisu-plice fas-
tening.

as being most interesting.
''The aquarium people love the way
we do this"
ooh yes" said Mr.. Paradise Fish.
81 will explain.
"Well, first Of all I blow a bubble
nest at the top Of the water and at
tach it to floating plant.
"Then you come under the nest and
you put the eggs down and they rise
right into the nest!
"And you wear such pretty white
costume when you are looking after
them. I guard the eggs carefully too,
and I keep the nest in perfect condi-
ton, but when the little ones are old
enough to swim you have to take
them away from me for may eat
them up in my hunger"
Eyes," said Mrs. Paradise Fish, ut
is so strange that after you have done
everything to protect and care for
the little eggs, and have gone without
food so as to be on constant watch,
that you will then turn around and
eat the ones you have sacrificed so
much for.
"Yes, it Is curious"
''But then Of course we are not per-
feet. Sometimes Paradise Fishes may
be cross with one another and greedy
about their food, even showing their
neighbor away.
"Still on the whole we do pretty
well. Now there is Mr.. Gourami Fish.
He will kill his mate in his excitement
over guarding the eggs"
ooh, I've no complaint to make"
said Mrs. Paradise Fish. ITO me

King Lops Off
$4,000 Yearly

Gently. Any development causing I'M
employment at once receives the SYM
pathetic attention of the king, who de-
cided to inspect the Britannia, now
laid up in the Medina river in the Isle
Of Wight, in order to see what re-
pairs and renovations would be re-
CURED to render it seaworthy for the
opening of the yachting season next
year. AS a result the Britannia will
hoist her pennant again next year.
This is a fact which will cause the
greatest satisfaction in yachting cir
cles throughout the kingdom. 1t is
also now probable that when the au--
tumn sales of bloodstock open at DON
caster, Newmarket and elsewhere, the
king will order new horses to be OBJ
tanned with a view to bringing his
racing stud into line with what it used
to be in the days Of King Edward.

Black Crepe Narrated With White
Crepe and Embroidery in Silver and
Black.

of the frock itself There is something
about the contrast of silver against
black which is most effective. There
is an exquisiteness about the combina-
ton that is not to be equaled by any
other combination of two colors.
There can be very little of the silver
and a vast quantity Of the black and
still there will be an artistic effect
which has everything to do with the
ultimate success of gown.
In this gown the psychology of that
idea has been worked TO its limit.
There is nothing present except the
glitter of the silver against the dead
ness Of the black, and the combination
has done all that the combination is
expected to do-in creating contrast
which makes the whole garment etfec-
tive.

Delicate CoIors Are Featured by
French Makers; orchidee Name
of New Tint.

Laces this season are for the most
mart dyed in clear, bright hues such
as almond green, like the soft green
underside of a leaf, and moss rose
mink. Orchidee is the name of lus-
c,ous tint that the French seem to make
hotter than we do. 1t is lavender
tint with a lot Of pink in it and is
often used with steel or silver lace.
In fact, lace this season has taken
an extremely adaptable turn and is
combined with almost everything, from
boods and silver tissue to fur. Pale
gold lace and kolinsky are very smart
while silver lace encrusted with beads
Ia used in long, sweeping panels over
sheathlike slips of satin or velvet.

From Flour Sacks.

boasting the cheapest suit of clothes

each. The tailor's fee brings the total
cost of an outfit to SO. Mr.. Martyr

DATA ON ROAD CONSTRUCTION
TO BE PUT IN USABLE FORM

A great deal of valuable data on
highway construction are soon to be
made available to all persons con-
nected with highway development bv
the Bureau of Public Roads, United
States Department of Agriculture.
In It's supervision of large appropria.
tons by Congress for FederaLaid
road construction, the bureau has as
|sembled complete records of contract
prices for all types of roads in all
sections OF the country since 1916.
In addition, engineers of the bureau
operating in each of the 48 States
report monthly on labor and material
used on jobs inspected by them.
To put this information in the most
Iusable form statistical machinery has
been installed and the work so ar
ranged that a small force can make
available a great varity of informa-
ton at sm%ll percentage of cost of
such work when done by hand. The
data assembled will consist of month
| ly reports on the status of Federal
aid work, prices paid for labor, and
contractors, bids for new work in all
sections of the country From time
to time reports covering a large vol
ume of work will be made in costs of
various types of surfacing and grad
ling, percentages of various types of
roads built, proportion of total cost
which goes into grading, surfacing
and other items of construction, to.
gether with any other information
for which there may be need.
As en- example of what can be
done: The question was recently
asked as to what widths of road were
CONSTRUCTED on 1880 miles of com
pleted Federal,aid road; cards were
fed into machine and in about two
hours the information was available
giving widths at intervals of 2 fee
and subdivided for the various sec
tons of the country.
