KNITTED FABRICS ARE LIKED
Material as Heavy and Compact as
overcoat Cloth Provides Cheaper
Goods for Clothes.

When women, though on fashion
bent, yet have frugal turn, an excel
lent economy is the purchase of knitted
fabrics for their outer clothes. No
longer is the knitting industry confined
TO the manufacture Of sweaters, neck
ties and the fIimsy silk appropriate to
underwear; it has entered successfully
the domain of dress fabrics and suit
ings.
A knitted fabric may be produced
In one-seventh of the time which 1t
takes to weave goods of equal quail
ity. This naturally reduces the cost
of manufacture and the retail price
of the materials.
Recent inventions applied both to
machinery and to the fulling process
have resulted in grades of knitted
goods as heavy and compact as wooden
overcoat cloth and which only the ex-
pert can distinguish from woven mate
rial Soft silks closely woven are ap
propriate for dresses and now these
are being knitted in the Jacquard de
signs. An invention, perfected last
autumn, has given us for the first time
knitted materials in patterns.
Jersey cloth, tricosham, tricollette
matelasse are some of the knitted fab
RIGS available for outer clothing.

ROAD SAFETY LAWS FAVORED
Highway Accidents Could Be Greatly
Decreased by Requiring Mirror
on Trucks.

Accidents on the highways, accord
ing to M. ". Eldridge, road director of
the American Automobile association,
could be greatly decreased by the pas
sage of uniform state laws requiring
every truck to carry mirror giving a
view of the road to the rear and by
requiring every horse-drawn vehicle to
display some sort Of light when using
the roads at night.
Mr.. Eldridge states that IL states
and the District Of Columbia have
laws requiring the mirror on trucks,
but that few have any regulation for
horse drawn vehicles. The states re-
curing mirrors are Vermont, Wash
ington, California, Connecticut, New
York. Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland.
Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri and
New Jersey.

new OUTER WRAPS
Street Garments Feature Arts
tic Quality and Beauty.
Parislennes Are Paying More Atten-
tion to Coats and capes Than
to Dresses.

Whatever the occasion, be they the
morning hours of shopping or work
ing or the afternoon hours of leisure
and pleasure, the Parisienne still
wears street wrap that has every
artistic quality and beauty about 1t,
says a Paris fashion correspondent In
the New York Times. This Is the age
of the beautiful coat Women are pay
Ing more attention to their outer
learning to wear them with more grace
and character.
In Paris, especially. the street
wraps are developing with marked
success. The seasons openings prove
that fact as the many examples Of re-
cent wrap building make their debut.
Chanel shows wrap of beige crepe
which Is completely covered with an
allover pattern in silk embroidery and
gold thread, initiating the gorgeous
cashmeres of the ancient Hindus.
Patou has an exquisite collection of
black capes trimmed with fur, and
generally with fringes of black
monkey. The collars are extremely
high, rising at the back until they
touch the brim of ones hat. Certain
Of the wraps express the freedom and
dash of the Cossacx's robe.
At Renee's the afternoon wraps
have more. or less the semblance Of
elaborated and elongated costume
blouses. The fur collars of her fabric
wraps are not so exaggerated as in
some of the other showings. But the
fur jackets amply compensate for this
apparent sighting Of the luxurious

YARDS OF RIBBON ON GOWNS
FIashy Strands Run Gamut Of the
Rainbow to Supply the New
Edicts of Dress.

You will find yards upon yards OF
ribbons on the modern dress-up gowns
Somehow the formality of the dress
designs seem to demand that stream
ing and formally plated style of trim
ming which only the de luxe ribbon
can supply.
But before you can realize how
charming these ribbon trimmings can,
be you must see the new ones as they
have been woven. They come in all
the brightest colors of the rainbow.
They embody all of the newer and
handsomer threads and weaves. They
are made in stripes and plaids and
stars and In Paisley patterns that as
tonish the eye.
In very many cases, in fact, ribbons
are used as edges of trimmings which
by reason of their contrast with the
basic material of the frock form that
decorative note which cannot be as
saulted and which proves to be In its
entirely simple way the so-called max
ing of the gown.
Black and white or black and gold
rlDDonS are particularly lovely against
highly colored backgrounds Of ma
terial. For instance, there was black
and silver ribbon no wider than an
inch and half used as an edging on a
house gown of jade green satin. The
edge decoration gave all the desired
effect and 1t was about as simple trim
ming as could be imagined. 1t served
only to hold down the hem and at the
same time it made trimming that
would be hard to Guido.
You cannot go wrong If you are
| buying ribbons for the trimmings for
your newer dress gowns. They can be
wide or narrow, soft or stiff, but they
can always find a place in the more
| formal styles.

IMPROVED
ROADS
LOW RATE ON ROAD MATERIAL
Shipment Of Surplus War Articles
Permitted by Ruling as "con-
tractors Equipment"

In the shipment Of surplus war ma
terials transferred to them by the bu-
reau of public roads, United States
Department of Agriculture state high
way departments will be saved a great
deal of expense as result of ruling
of the Interstate Commerce commits
sion permitting the shipment of this
material as Contractors equipment"
thereby giving it the advantage of q
low rate.
The railroads previously required
the states to pay less-than-carload
rates on the various items included in
such shipments, even when together
they made up carload. The conten-
ton of the bureau is that since the
bulk of this material has been used
and none of 1t is new, and s.;;-"o it is
all intended for use in road construc-
ton, it should be given the advantage
of the low rate allowed to contractors

moleskin. These are strictly tailored
in style and will be made like the little
'clocki blonsecoats that were so much

These little coats are particularly
good in dyed caracul, in soft beige and
brown shades. They are also smart
in black caracul or broadtail, as we'll
as In moleskin. AS moleskin IS con-
siderably cheaper than 1t was year.

was opposed by the railroads, was
upheld by the Interstate Commerce
commission.
The low rate Is now applicable to some
1,200 carloads to be shipped from
Camp Grant ILL.,, and large quantities

First Aid Treatment.

If something gets stuck In the
throat try first a sharp blow between
the two shoulder blades. next drinking
water or some hot drink to relax the
throat muscles, then eat a piece of
bread. If these fall, give an emetic to
induce vomiting. Lemon juice will dis
solve small fish bone. A simple
emetic consists Of either one teaspoon
full of mustard or salt in cupful Of
water. This may be beneficially used
when headache is caused by acute
indigestion.

VIM. S. HART COMES
To STRAND SUNDAY

"Travelin' On" which brings Will
liam S. Hart to the Strand for an en-
gagement of three days starting sun
day, is the latest of the Paramount
pictures this sterling actor has pro-
duced Harts success since he
started making pictures in his own
studios, with his own company, and
with his own resources, featuring his
own stories, and supervising his at
fractions in every particular, has
been nothing short of phenomenal.
.sThe Toll Gate,' sand "The
Cradle of Courage "The Testing
Block" "The Whistle" have all been
glowing examples Of his skill, and
now comes "Travelin' On" a produc-
ton Western to the core, q virile,
outdoors story which combines thrills
with red blooded action, adventure
with heart reaching romance, and
story on which Hart has spared
neither time, effort nor expense.
His role is that of ~. Co. name

did not know his parentage, could not
read nor write, had no faith in any
one, and yet, man feared by all he
met, quick on the draw, hard hitting,

West of the days that have gone, he
comes into the story s'travelin' on
coming from apparently nowhere
going the same place, stopping long
enough at the vicious town of "Tum-
bic Pot to straighten out some
things that did not look on the
square. "McGee" owns Tumble
Pot" and a more cruel, sensuous, re-
lentless individual had not struck the
West. So that when Preacher Nor
ton and his wife, very attractive
woman. tumbled into Tumble Pot"
and the woman aroused the worst in
''McGee,' things did not appear in
very rosy hue. Add to this that y.
c." little better than "McGee, also
looked not with displeasure on the
woman. and you have the basis for
story that Hart has made into a mas
terpiece. But in the devotion of the
wife for her husband, y. c." wit
messed the turning point in his career
and of the primitive man with MS
brutal instincts it made man
cleansed by the most ennobling trait
Arizona republican., 1922-05-05

he had ever known, ana a man re-
solved that that devotion should not
be in vain, no matter what the cost,
"McGee" or no "McGee." The time
comes when "J. c." can prove his
worth, when the preacher resorts to
robbery to secure funds to build his
church and thus falls into the tolls
of "McGee." who fired his hench-
men to the point of lynching the "sky
pilot" But when the lynchers came
for their man they found it was u

the robbery and taken the preachers
place, and this was different story.
No docile, soft voiced man they
found, but one as tough as they them
and thorough match for all the
crookedness and evil of "McGee.' It
is this that precipitates the story to
the thrilling drama it resolves irsen
into, and it is the thrills which hold
the spectator spellbound through
some of the fastest and most exciting
action Hart has ever done for the
silver sheet.
The same program will carry the
selected comedy, Full of Spirits,
and as the engagement is limited to
three days the management Is urging
attendance during the matinees.

"Rrine Him In" at Strand

After an absence of several weeks
Earle williams returns to the Strand
for a two days engagement-today
and tomorrow-offering Vitagraph's
stirring tale of the north Bring
Him In
H. H. Won Loan. well known 10
cally, wrote the story and Vitagraph
has gone to extreme lengths in Sc
curing accuracy and realism. The
nature of the story called for most
inspiring background of scenic
beauty. and in this respect, Bring
Him In" will prove a. veritable trl-
umph. The story involves the
strange case Of a fugitive from the
Royal Northwest Mounted--in this
instance man who had served years
with the organization, and who was
now sought by the very officer whose
life he had saved years before.
DR.. Hood, as Van Loan has drawn
him, is a physician. On one occa-
sion he is awakened frightened from
a. dream in which he pictured hlm-
self as having shot and killed man.
Investigation locates the body OF a
dead man on the floor of the physi-
clans library. and near him gun.
An old faithful servant aroused by
the doctors exclamation believes the
Doctors story of the dream, but he
suggests flight. as it would be hard
thing to prove innocence. And in the
very flight he directed suspicion
against himself, so that he had
hardly crossed the border into
Canada until the Royal Mounted had
received word to capture him. me
man they sent out with the proven
bal orders to "bring him in" was the
