SKIRT GATHERED.
IN BACK LIKE
bUSTLE
Embroidery on Material Which
Looks Like Towel Also
Seen in Paris.
BY ALICE LANGELIER,
Cosmopolitan News Service.


PARIS, March 9.--Many, of the
new spring costumes on view here
today have trimming Of bright col
ored embroidery in a popular new
material which looks exactly like q
rough bath towel. 1t has little
rough bumps all through 1t about
cne-half the size OF q dime and
makes effective borders and cuffs.
Molyneux uses it to make g
charming evening gown in white.
1t needs no trimming. Doeuillet
makes an afternoon dress In white
and yellow. The bodice is not very
full, with a waist line fairly normal
and the skirt pulled straight and
tight across the front and over the
hips gathered into what might have
been called q hustle" fifty years
ago.
Brandt is showing dress com
pletely edged with old-fashioned
ricrac in rose and blue, which
makes q very smart trimming quite
different in effect from the Kind
grandma used to put on her petit
coats and still 1t is precisely the
same thing.
Poor little butterfly, he sits. on
the wrists OF the little Partisan
midinettes as they dance through
the gay bathrooms these days-or
rather, nights. After the mode Of
the. silk kerchief knotted on the
arms, comes this new fashion OF q
little butterfly made Of the same
material as the gown, fluttering on
the white wrist of some fair maid.

EZRA MEEKER WILL DRIVE OK
TEAM ON OREGON TRAIL AGAIN
Man Who Made Western Pathway Fa-
nous Planning Another Trip Over
2,O00-Mile Stretch for Movies.

The Oregon trail, pathway to the
Golden West in the days when that re-
gion was populated mostly by Indians
and buffalo, will be blazed again. For
the third time, Ezra Meeker, %, one of
the oldest living pioneers of the north
west VIII traverse in a prairie schoon-
er the 1000 miles of the old trail.
When Meeker first Travelled that
trail, the rifles of savage Indians, en-
ragged at the white mans incursion. al
o continually We're leveled upon
him. This time the Indians rifle will
give way to the motion picture camera
which will follow his progress and will
record for future generations the trials
of the hardy pioneers.
Meeker was born in Ohio in 1882.
At an early age he married and set
out for Iowa with the determination TO
farm on his own land. Having settled
i'll Iowa, Mr.. and Mrs. Meeker decided
the opportunities were greater in the
far west. So they resolved to Join the
tide Of immigration flocking over the
Oregon trail through a ~trackless wild
erness to Portland, Ore.
1t took the Meekers five months TO
make the journey in their prairie
schooner behind two yokes of oxen.
Their lives were almost continually in
peril from Indians and from wild
beasts. More than once herds of stam-
peding buffalo. all but wiped out the
little party. Scores of t'mes only the
unerring aim of the frontiersman's
trusty rifle stood between them and
death.
Mecker estimates 5000 died in one
year from the perils of the wilderness
and the ravages of disease on the Ore
gon trail.
But Meeker and his family reached
Oregon in safety, settled. titled the
soil and prospered for Al years. Then
in 1906 Meeker again drove his OK
team across the country to Washing
ton, ID. c., to blaze the old Oregon trail
again. In Washington he was greeted
by President Roosevelt.
The trail he had reblazed later was
marked by scores of monuments.
Now Meeker and his oxen are going
over the trail again-this time for the
movies Meeker is in Boston gather
ing material for his scenario.

!. SOCIETIES ARE
THRIVING
District Associations Have
51,OO6 Members, With
$4,000, 900 Assets.

Total assets of building and loan
associations in the District Of CO.
lumbia for the six months ended
December 81, 1922, were $685.
435.SO-a gain Of $1,2S4,67s.S7 dur
ing the period-it was announced
today by C. Clinton James, presi-
dent Of the District Building and
Loan Association Council.
The membership totaled 61,0O6 at
the end Of the six-months' period. he
stated, being y gain during that
time Of 2,128 members. There are
twenty-five associations doing bush.
ness here. Reports from the various
associations show a large demand
for loans, in many associations in
excess Of their monthly income.
These associations, in order TO ac-
commodate their members, borrow
from the bank In order to assist
worthy persons to obtain loans.
The building and loan association
plan Of amortizing a loan received
no mean Endorsement when during
the past month representatives OF
the United States and England
agreed on definite plan whereby
the $4,000, 900 900 loan to England
is to be paid off in sixty-two an
nual insta1lments at the rate Of 3
per cent for the first ten years and
3h per cent for the remainder. It
is clearly the building and loan plan
carried out on a. gigantic scale.
John Bull agree@to take out a pass
book and pay dues and interest"
like all good loan borrowers do. The
annual payments will average a
little over SITS, 000, 900. For the
first year the interest payments are
exactly six times as much as the
payment on the principal. The in
terest charges decrease annually,
but continue to exceed the pay
ments on the principal up to the
forty-fourth installment, when they
change positions.
While the formal details Gmay be
absent. the essentials of building
and loan association are all there,
only they are on such far-flung
scale as to almost battle the under
standing. The sum involved is I'M
heard OF, even in international
finance, while the stockholders are
the people of the United States
an immense association.
BY comparison, however, the posi-
ton attained by the building as
sociations of this country looms up
large. For several years the mag
nitude Of this loan has agitated the
expert financial minds of the two
wealthiest nations of the world. and
yet the aggregate assets OF the. as
sociations OF this country are today
equal to fully two-thirds Of the
amount involved. and will in all
probability exceed that sum within
a few short years.
Still, Uncle Sam will have the
largest Individual association.
