which can furnish perpetiially an annual yield
of print paper equal to oiie-third of the tota!
national consumption OF the United States.
The contracts covering this production are
with reliable concerns and are expected TO be
signed by the Secretary OF Agriculture soon.
In studying the best ways of utilizing that
timber the forest has been divided into II
zones, each embracing sufficient timber to
furnish a large paper mill with Il permanent
stujpy Of raw material Furthermore, each
zone has been delineated SO as TO include the
necessary water power for its own pulpwood

little more than I per cent on invested CAPT

bv the government, but showing wholesome
Improvement The Improvement, moreover,
is gathering speed as the months pass. There
was 20 per cent more revenue, from increased
traffic, last December than in the previous De-
cember. At that rate, there would be an an
nual return to the railroads OF SIS per cent.
There is every reason to expect at least as
good a showing as that throughout 1928
The 1922 traffic total was kept Gown by the
long coal strike This year there is not 60

are for good business in all the big manufac-

Ii nothing worse happens abroad thar has
happened already, there is reason to expect
comfortable degree OF prosperity IN the
United States this year for nearly everybody
and more for the railroads than they have had
for many years.

has an Inverted plait at the right side.
At the left there is scarflike con-
tinuation of turned-over top which
turns to form the girdle and ties at
the left side with long. flowing ends.
She works out the same idea In con-
nection with collar. Following a
medium bateau outline, this straight
band ties on one shoulder with long
ends and loops.
Vionnet's colors are, first and fore
most, beige in full gamut, with accom-
panying shades of reddish chestnut
and golden browns. She still uses dull
brick reds In both woolens for street
suits and silks for afternoon dresses.
There is very little black except for
, coats.
Her favorite for evening dresses Is
white. After that the lovely pervenche
blue. She also uses vivid blue like
that known as roi, or kings blue,
though a shade paler. Red in faded
tones like those seen in ancient Pom
peian friezes Is favored. Green Is less
in evidence than Il was In the spring.
Silk and Wool Combinations.
AS for materials vionnet uses chief
! ly in wOolen the velours de laine In
both plain and ribbed weaves and in
solid color and melange. The latter
gives somewhat the effect of frieze,
especially IL the white illumination is
obtained through the use of artificial
silk, as 1t often Is. This gives spar
king fieck all through the dark woolen
ground.
Crepe de chine and crepe romain
for afternoon and evening are as much
used as heretofore, also crepe satin.
In the latter material she continues to
use both surfaces, getting from the
contrast Of crepe and satin most de
sirable results. She uses some plain
satin. a considerable amount of plain
velvet and for evening fine tulle-like
net and mousseine de sole.
The continuation of crepe de chine
In great quantities bears striking evil
dence Of the fact that fashions change
slowly. So those who spend several
years in bringing certain fabrics TO the
foreground have the compensation OF
knowing that material, having once
ochieved success, is likely to retain Its
place for many years.
vionnet was the first to Introduce
the simple crepe de chine dress with
overlapping front in geometrical out
line. She still retains this type, but
now bands 1t in striking colors of two
opposing tones. For instance, on a
gray crepe de chine she may use
bands of duck blue and pale salmon
pink.
