Emporia, Kan, Sept. 30.-Union

And now the solution; it's all
very simple.
Nobody's going to curl the hair.
They're going to leave it straight.
They are going to depend on the
natural gloss of a well-groomed
head for the standard of chic and
beauty. OF course, all the hair
dressers will be furious, but no
doubt they will bear up under the
blow.
The new coiffure for bobbed
hair is the straight bob. 1t is
very pleasing, and follows the
lines of the head in a manner that
is undeniably artistic. 1t will turn
out at the ends naturally and
smartly in most cases, as the
short-bob, natural head-dressing

THERE has been much wailing

the bobbed heads of the land. And
much too much fiourishing and
waving of the curling irons. And
burnt-up hair, and coarsened
locks, dried by the permanent
running of the hair.
One had to have short, curly
hair-because everybody had to
have short, curly hair. And the
funny part was, no one ever had
short hair and curly hair together
at the same time and the right
time. The coiffure was full and
fluffy and round when one had no
place to go, and when one had
some place to go, with a beau,
ones hair looked like Sam Hill.
Fresh curls, the weekly shampoo,
and the Special Date never seemed
to synchronize.
Life was becoming too compli-
Gated. Something had to be done

and attractive dressing sponsored
by Paris.
Paris, for the long haired, de-
signs the slick-back mode of wear
ing the hair, as shown in one Of
the sketches above. Dips and
stray wisps of hair plastered cum
ningly and artfully against the
cheek, are an added attraction.
The hair is drawn back very tight
ly, and knotted low at the back
near the nape of the neck. This
knotting of the hair there, gives
a picturesque profile absent from
the hair dressing modes for many
years. 1t is pleasing and favor
able to many women, and it is
surprising it has not come back
before.

MAYOR TO TALK AT SCHOOL
VIII Address Meeting of Van Buren,
Parcnt-Tcachers Monday.

Mayor Herbert J. Corwine will give
an address at the Parent-Tea chers'
association meeting at Van Buren,
school Monday evening. The address
and program will follow & chicken
dinner at $3.50 o'clock. Mayor Cor
wine will talk on The Attitude and
Power of the City to Provide Adequate
Fairgrounds for Children" Music
and a business meeting of the asso-
citation are a part of the program.
The playground problem is one that
has been troubling patrons of the Van
Buren school neighborhood for some
time. Little ground for playing is
available and property is said to be so
expensive that it cannot be bought
for the enlargement of the grounds.
Closing the streets during play
hours has been discussed, but it is un-
derstood that there is no law which
permits closing of the streets for such
purposes. Mayor Corwine. at a meet
ing of the board of education recently,
suggested the closing of the streets
near the school thus giving more room
for play, and asked that a committee
from the board of education be ap-
pointed to discuss the matter with the
city officials.
Some of these matters will be dis
cussed by the mayor, it is understood.
Officers of the Van Buren, Parent
Teachers association are: Paul Sher-
man, president; Mrs. ]. w. Newell,
vice president; Mrs. w. H. Luellen,
secretary, and J. NJ. Kessler, treasurer.

round neck and long flowing sleeves.
The front and back of the bodice are
trimmed with straight rows of cut
steel beeds. The skirt, which has the
chic uneven hem line, has long panel
at each side. This frock would do for
many occasions, as it is dressy but not
overly SO.
Another w. w. Mills dress that I
thought especially attractive, was
made of black silk velvet. The design
is simple but there is no end of style
in the puffed cuffs and belt of alter
nate stripes of the black velvet and
brick red corded silk. The sleeves and
the waist line are long and the whole
effect is very charming.
There is besides the silk and velvet
dresses a splendid selection of wool
tailleures at the w. w. Mills Co. Store.
A Frenchy model, is of Poiret twill
and is effectively trimmed with silk
embroidery in royal blue and yellow
on a ground of orange canton crepe.
The dress closes in Russian blouse
effect, the line of which is carried
from the low waist line to the end of
the skirt with an inserted panel of the
orange canton crepe, which hangs
longer than the skirt and is finished
with a medallion of the embroidery.
These are only a few of the interest
ing new Fall dresses at the w. W.
Mills Co. Store.

New Traffic Laws To Be Con-
sidered by Legislature.
Kansas Said To Be Behind in
Regulating Auto Driving.
STATE TRAFFIC COPS PROPOSED
M. w. Watson Would Abolish
Use of Spot Lights.
Drivers License Issued by
State Practically Certain.

The members of the next legislature
will be called upon to give a lot of
Consideration to traffic laws-par-
ticularly as applied to speed regula-
tions and use of hard surface roads.
Completion of a number of links in
important cross-state roads during the
last year has convinced the state high
way commission that Kansas is far
behind in legislative enactments re-
garding motor traffic.
Some of the JOY may be taken out
of life for the speed manlacS, the
road hogs and the jay drivers. There
is also the possibility of drastic law
regarding drivers licenses and a law
may also be passed denying kinder
garten students the right to drive
high powered cars.
r' Corps of State Traffic Cops.
One possibility is the creation of
= corps of state traffic cops. Local
supervision of new hard surface roads
hasn't been a complete success. There
IS a human tendency on the part of
local officers to wink at the local
apeeders and to make life burden
Tor the visitor from another state or
Seounty. A force of state traffic cops
not moved to emotion and sympathy
for the local speeder is regarded by
the highway commission as prac-
teal remedy.
Kansas speed laws are also bit
wobbly when compared with driving
laws of other states which have passed
thru the experimental stage. of hard
surfaced roads. The present state law
permits forty-mile speed limit M.
w. Watson, state highway engineer,
believes this is virtually no speed limit
at ALL He would reduce the limit to
thirty miles. On the other hand an
eight-mile limit at grade and railroad
crossings and rounding curves is re-
garded as equally impractical. That
limit would doubtless be increased IL
the legislature listened attentively to
the state commission program.
No More Spot Lights.
Watson also proposes to abolish
entirely the use of spot lights He
declares it is the only cure for the
present night driving evil.
Another proposal is for designation
of driving rights of motorists on hard
surface roads. Painting of a regula-
tion line in the center of each sur
faced highway which would designate
the safety zone of motorists is re-
garded as the best provision to safe
guard against road hogs.
Legislative requirements for signs
on all highways properly indicating
turns bridges and danger zones is
urged by Watson. He would also
compel approach signs to all state
or hard surfaced roads.
Drivers License Bill.
h"I don't know what the legislature
viii do about the matter" Watson
said today, but Kansas certainly
needs a lot of new legislation govern
ing use of hard surface roads and
some protection for the driver who
still holds life, limb and property
valuable"
state drivers license bill is prac-
tfcally certain to be introduced during
the session. The act would probably
increase the present minimum age
limit for drivers. 1t would also pro-
vide for cancellation of licerses when
drivers are convicted of carelessness.

MISSIONARIES ARE MARRIED
Mrs. Leota York and Henry Os-
trander Are Welded.


Mrs. Leota A. York, missionary,
whose abduction of her 15-year-old
daughter, Mary, from Overlook
school and her subsequent elopement
with Henry Ostrander, also a mis-
sionary, caused a sensation here last
April, will Tive happy ever after if
a marriage certificate has anything to
do with it. Mrs. York and Ostrander
were united in marriage in the probate
court Friday afternoon by Probate
Judge j. D. M. Hamilton. The wit
nesses to the ceremony were T. D.
Humphreys, who defended Mrs. York
when she was arrested, and Rad M.
Lee, who assisted in the prosecution.
Mrs. York received a divorce from
her husband, Ed York, of Overlook,
last March. Immediately afterward
she and York went to Overlook
school and kidnapped her daughter,
Mary. Taking the girl with them they
Travelled overland in Ford truck to
Lincoln, Neb., where they were cap
tured and returned to Topeka.
A warrant charging the couple with
living together as man and wife was
issued. They declared that Mrs. York
had not lived with her husband for
nine years and that, being informed
that this constituted a legal separa-
ton, she and Ostrander were married
at Ogden, Utah, in 1920.
After their return to Topeka, Mrs.
York was sentenced to serve thirty
days in Jail for contempt of court,
on the ground that the girl was in
custody of the court when she was
kidnapped The officers then let the
couple go OH bond with the under
standing that they should live apart
for six months, or until Mrs. York's
legal divorce should become effective.

This was one of the most effective

This is a season of both large and
small hats. OF the latter type is a
modish little black velvet turban with
flat side trimmings of silver cloth laid
in the folds of black. There are sew
eral attractive hats at Pelletier's in
the fashionable combination of black

A very youthful chapeau in the
same department is in poke effect,
with flat French ribbon rosettes in
several bright colors against the black

stunning diagonal bow of the black is
placed at the back of the hat, lend
ing degree of smartness much to be

worn in the Fashion Show by Miss
Helen Frisbie, the tall model who was
so much admired.
Also from Landsco is an especially
chic small hat of Mohawk silk velvet,
having a large rosette trimming of
the velvet and silver cloth in the
front.
Another hat, worn also by Miss
Frisbie, is an all black affair of silk
velvet, trimmed with soft folds of the
material on the edge of the brim, and
black feathers of American Paradise
at the side.
