But Mr.. Dog did not tumble; he
kept on his feet, and went right on
running; he couldn't stop then, but
when Mr.. Fox rolled into the muddy
pond Mr.. Dog was running toward
him from the other side of the pond.
OF course, Mr.. Fox did not wait for
him. Oh, no; he picked himself up
and off he bounded, and where Mr..
Dog went he did not know, but he
hoped he had found Mr. Coon in the
tree.
He was pretty sure he didn't and so
he was trying now as he sat by the
fire to think up story to tell be-
fore Mr.. Coon could tell what he saw,
and have the laugh on him with all
the other members Of the -Four Paws
club.
AS soon as his coat was dry Mr..
Fox started off for the club to be
there ahead of Mr.. Coon, for he had
thought of story to tell, explaining
just how it all happened.

Coat Dress Is
to Be in Lead

The coat dress has long been ris-
Ing factor in the wardrobe Of the
American woman. Those who have
worn them have loved them dearly,
have known that dresses Of this gen.
eral character could not be duplicated
In any way. But their champions have
been few and far between until the
coming Of the present season. Now,
observes fashion correspondent in
the New York Times, it looks very
much as though the coat dress Will
lead them all.
For the spring season especially it
has many attributes. 1t is warm
enough without being too warm. 1t has
the chic Of a certain tailoring without
being of too hard and fast tailor's
rule. 1t Is trim looking, and, above all,
it is so perfectly suited to all Of the
city outdoor activities which are so
prevalent at just this season.
Then, there are many and various
materials from which the coat dress
can be made. 1t is as good in twill
as it is in duvetyn. 1t is excellent
In homespun, and it finds one OF Its
finest expressions in some Of the
heavier silks. In fact, 1t offers the
we'll dressed woman an opportunity
to show her talent for dressing without
any exterior coverings to mar the
general effect.
As the openings Of American design
ers show their newer creations to the
world, more and more Of this type OF
street frocks are to be seen, and from
the enthusiasm of the women who
are looking at them with a view to
buying there seems to be no doubt
that they will be eminently successful.
Does Not Require Tailor.
The coat dress is something which
does not necessarily require tailor to
make satisfactorily. 1t is dress which
a clever dressmaker can do quite as
we'll, and for that reason, it is often
more becoming than the tailored suit
Of harder lines and more visible stitch
ing. Also the fabrics for coat dress
being of the softest possible texture,
they then fall more closely in harmony
with the lines Of the figure and help
a woman to appear at her most grace
full best.
There is q coat dress made of satin
and duvetyn, the upper section being
composed Of the former material and
the lower of the latter. Then you can
see at a glance how cleverly the ends
Of the full, pulled sleeves have been
handled in order to repeat the heavier
fabric there and to carry out the SIM
plicity Of the design Of the coat. The
color Of this particular coat dress was
dark blue, the upper section being of
that same tone. Then the satin Of
that bodice portion was carried down
underneath the skirt section to make
its lining. The lining was carried out
to the very edge, so that when the
skirt Of the dress bobbed back and
forth as its wearer walked along the

snappy Tints Pronounced Both il
Silk and Wool Fabrics for
Coming Seasons.

Separate skirts will have their usual
run of favor for spring and summer,
especially for sport wear, and plain
skirts promise to be more popular this
year than the plated models. Of
course, plated skirts are shown, but
the plain ones are in the majority, and
this holds true, no matter whether the
fabric is of silk, cotton or wool.
In plain silk skirts-that Is, I'M
plated ones-all sorts Of interesting
trimmings are featured. One smart
heavy white silk crepe skirt recently
displayed was decorated with oval
motifs in black, formed of French
Knots. Another had a deep border all
around the bottom made Of chenille
floss drawn through, knotted and
trimmed, the sash girdle having ends
similarly finished.
Both in silk and wool fabrics there
Is apparently to be tremendous vogue
Cor high colors, red especially. Tore

USE BRIGHT COLORs FOR SKIRTS

ador, poppy and Chinese red are some
of the names given the very vivid
shade so much approved, and that
sweater and blouse manufacturers are
bearing in mind the fact that bright
colored skirts are to be approved by
Dame Fashion is shown by the gar
ments they are offering. A sport
blouse of fine white wolfe may be
trimmed with bands and pipings of
plain red and white dotted wolfe, and
the same vivid color touches appear in
many of the new sweaters Of white
silk or wool.
That there arc clever variations
even in a conventional wool plaid is
demonstrated by plain model finished
at the bottom with square tabs or
scallops that follow the plaid for size.
Two smart slit pockets are also let in,
one on either side.

T@@he Right Thing

lawyer, for instance, may so impress
his friends and their friends whom he
meets at their houses with his honesty
and shrewdness that when they hap
pen to need the services of a lawyer
they naturally turn to him. Or more
often they become personally fond of
him and turn any professional bust
ness his way that they can, simply
through a desire to see him succeed.
So often a doctor builds up a practice
through the influence of friends and
acquaintances.
But it would be quite another mat
ter for a young lawyer. when at the
house of friend in any way to at
tempt to gain the patronage of any
other of the guests.
One young man 1 know, who is hav-
ing an uphill time gaining his pro-
fessiOnai education, was persuaded by
the promoters Of a stock-selling enter
prise that he could sell enough stock
in the evening among his friends to
pay all his educational expenses. Con-
vinced of the merits of the various
sorts of stock that this enterprise is
promoting, this young man never
misses chance when he Is invited to
the house of a friend to sell stock
either to his host or to one Of the other
guests. He even tried to persuade
young woman with whom he had just
been dancing that it would be to her
advantage to invest some of her saw
ings in one of these ventures in which
he was Interested.
Needless to say this young man is
not asked to so many houses as he
used to be and if he does not mend
his manners he will find himself really
taboo in the little circles where he
once enjoyed an enviable popularity.

for flower names, adopted it, and soon

which gives that "snappy" little air so
necessary to the smartest dressing of
the season.
Into many of the coat dresses the
general tendency for draping has been
carried with a great deal of success.
And this idea is perfectly illustrated
by another coat dress made Of taupe-
colored wool velours, in the lightest
of Its weights. Of course this ma
terial Grapes better than any other
wooden fabric, and it Is no wonder
that the designer has chosen it to
carry out this model. Much In the
manner Of the draped afternoon and
evening frocks, this coat dress has
been wrapped around the figure until
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1922-04-28

it has achieved a shape that is entirely
consistent with the figure that wears
it. The coat has that surplice, fichu
line with rolling collar carrying out
the outline, and 1t ends in bunch
Of draping over one hip where the
fastening is marked by brilliant
green jade buckle. The fringing at
the lower ends Of the drapery Is Of
the same shade of taupe from which
the dress is made.
The lining of this coat dress Is, per-
haps, It's most interesting feature. 1t
is composed of striped silk in colors
of gold and green, with many vary
ing shades of these tones woven into
the pattern. The design takes naive
turn when the lining suddenly appears
from it's hiding place and proceeds
to constitute the lower sections Of
the sleeves in lieu Of large and spread
ing cuffs.
Ready for Wear at Any Time.
Women who have succumbed to the
coat dress are stating positively that
they like 1t better for street wear than
any other sort Of costume. They say
it means so much to have one garment
do the whole trick. They like the idea
of having only to adjust one set OF
hooks and eyes, one set Of one collar
and one snap at the wa1stline before
their dressing operations are complete.
You know there is great deal In that,
especially if you happen to be busy
all day long and when the elimination
of labor in your dressing becomes
something to be striven for.
dress Of this sort, once 1t has
been completed by a designer who
knows his business, Is ready for wear
at any moment, and with the minimum
amount of toll it can be snapped into
place with no trouble about collars
and cuffs or waists and skirts or any
of those nuisances to which women
have become so accustomed that
sometimes they fail to see how pos
sible it is to do without them.
A French dress made in this coat
dress manner had the interesting de-
sign of a simple chemise dress. Of
course it had tremendous sleeves to
make it look more like the thing 1t
was, but other than that it has every
resemblance to the little frock which
has held its popularity through SO
many changes and chances.
It's sleeves were embroidered over
their entire surfaces with bright Rus
sian colors and there was belt, quite
wide and straight, posed down low
over the hips, which held the coat In
that form known as Russian blouse.
There was high standing collar, loose
around the throat, and this carried
out the same colored embroiderings,
closing at the side where the whole
coat opened in a straight line reach
ing from shoulder to hem.
Still another coat dress was made of
one of those soft English tweeds WOW
en- In stripes of dull blue and warm
tan. The stripes reversed their natural
way of life and ran around and around
instead of up and down. This frock.
while 1t was lined with soft satin in
an old blue tone, had no other vestige
of trimming anywhere about it. The
stripes were allowed to do their dec
orative work unmolested, apd they sue
ceeded In doing it in an entirely salts
factory manner.

FLORA is as springtime a name as
1 any maid could wish. 1t means
flowers, of course, and commentaries
the goddess Of flowers, who was so
called from the Latin name for spring
blooms, "fios."
Flora came into use through her
masculine counterpart, curious to re-
late. From the goddess was evolved
Florus, chiefly memorable as the name
of the procurator whose merciless rule
drove the Jews to their last rebellion,
and Flora was subsequently derived
as the feminine of the former name.
The first Flora was found in Spain.
She was the daughter of Count Julian
who was much disliked and is re-
corded in Spanish ballads as ia Cava,'
the wicked.
