Haberdashery Is usually referred
to al the minor accessories Of dress
and yet each a men are con-
sidering them more and more with
major Importance. That Is because
styles are becoming more standard

definite acceptance of what was to

Tooayl II you really desire the
correct thing. you can find charted
channels of the trend of fashion and
as you adhere or digress from them
depends your standing as a correct
" attired man.
The man who has a penchant for
shirts with matched collars will
find he may adopt them to his
hearts content and be well within
the edicts of fashion. That is so
long as he confines himself to the

These are with considerable open

throat room and plenty of space to

be somewhat thicker than hereto
fore.
Semi-stiff collars have met with
such approval for year round wear
that these collars must be accorded
first position in the fashions. For
evening dress wear the stiff collar
holds its own and the wing collar
is considered more fashionable than
the turn down for dress wear.
The fashion in sweaters takes its
lead from a standpoint of utility. the

the sport calendar. During tho

Babies Are Aid
to Beauty, Says
One Specialist
By WEBB MILLER

by WEfob NllIlEfN
Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS. Sept. 1-CUnited Presse
ITO be really beautiful after girl
hood. American and other ONE
must learn that they must have
babies-and must nurse their W
babies"
Such is the dictum of DIR. Brett
mon. French beauty specialist.
Contrary to the usual belief
a woman cannot be really beauti-
full in middle age unless she has
had babies" said Brettmon. ''The
Venus must have had several
babies-she could not have been
as beautiful as statues indicate
unless she had.
"The Widespread custom of feed
ing babies by bottle is fatal to rich
ripened feminine beauty. The
act OF nursing is natures own way
and acts upon certain glands and
the body in such a way that the
whole facial expression is soft
ened and beautified as nothing
else can do It. Also the same
act improves the complexion thru
action on the glands.
1.-THE American girl is wonder
full, but 1 notice that too frequent
ly the American woman does not
retain her beauty past girlhood.
II she has babies and nurses them
herself and observes the ordinary
rules of health. there is no reason
why she should not retain that
beauty and ripen IL.
"a woman who has never had
babies will never be really lovely
in the way nature intended. no
matter what she does.
II know there is a prevalent be
lief among mn that child. birth
will ruin their figure. II is not
true II proper care is taken
but on the contrary normal child
birth enhances the natural beauty
of the figure. 1t is what nature
intended and she developed the
human frame with that end in
view. Therefore It is ridiculous
to think otherwise"

Plenty Of Color in Neckwear
Men who want color somewhere
in their apparel scheme will find
plenty of latitude to indulge that
desire in the neclwear styles and in
al, refined taste that is where high
colors are best plsced. Bias stripes
in repps and mogaaors are extreme

Paisley or Egyptian patterns will
inherit much favor from the wo-

wearing of oxfords. The vogue which
originated with Milady is now taking
Mr.. Man by storm and the result
is a large decrease in the sale of high
shoes and an equally large increase
1 n the wearing of low shoes.
Whether this vogue will continue
indefinitely is quite uncertain. but
some designers believe the peak will
be reached in a few years. then there
will be a gradual return to high
shoes.
Among foot specialties the date
of the restoration of high footwear
may come o than the experts
anticipate. due to the fact that some
men are careless in the wearing of
oxfords. For example in extremely
cold weather the necessary precau-
tons aren't taken to guard against
the severity Of tho season and as a
result sickness develops.
, 1923-09-02

Generally speaking the styles that
men and young men wore in foot
wear last fall and winter will again
be shown this year. While styles
underwent radical changes in wo-
mems footwear during the last twelve
months man apparently is content to
rave what he a and let wen enough
alone
Then. too. manufactures haven't
been confronted with SO many angles
which make the changing Of women's
footwear SO necessary. The styles
of 1922 no doubt went over big and
the makers saw no reason for revis-
ing the schedule of models.
Oxfords Worn More.
One OF the most important changes
thai will be seen through the fall and
winter months will be the increasing

While It seems as II nature has pro-
vided better protection for the sup.
posedly weaker sex in regards to the
wearing of low shoes, man hasn't be-
some acclimated as yet. He must
wear spats with his oxfords IL he
wants the maximum winter comfort.
This season there will be a showing
of fawn, tan. peal and biege for dress
occasions, while the dark grays.
browns and blacks will be Won dur
ing the day.
No Unnatural Lasts.
The pointed toe and unnatural lasts
will not be shown to n degree.
This is largely due to the fact that
man prefers comfort-particularly
the man approaching the mature
stage of life. The younger fellows
still cling to the English or custom
lasts. but even these afford suffi-
cient o room for the desired com.
fort.
The brogue will continue in favor
among the oxfords, but will also find
its prominent place among the high
shoes.
Brown again will be the favored
color for fall. Russet and cordovan
shades between the light and dark
browns. Blacks, dull and gun metal
finishes viii be wor by those who do
not care much for the colored shoes.

Buckwheat Quite Useful
as Short Season Crop

Buckwheat is a short-season emer-
gency crop which can be grown in
many states. The crop is useful to
replace a corn planting which is
drowned out and cannot be replanted
and it may also be used to fill other
emergencies in the rotation Buck
wheat always commands a relatively
good price on the market and, while
the yield Is generally only fifteen to
twenty bushels per acre, the return
per acre is usually quite satisfactory
Buckwheat natures in ten or twelve
weeks and can be seeded as late as
the first week in July. 1t is adapted
to wide range of soil and, in fact,
will grow to better advantage on poor
soils than a great many other crops
The usual seeding rate Is four or FIVE
pecks to the acre and the seed may be
either drilled or broadcasted. Among
the best varieties Is the Japanese
buckwheat.
Cutting when the first seeds have
matured and the others are well
formed is advised The crop must be
left in the field about ten days to dry
out and the balance of the seed will
ripen in this time. If the cutting is
delayed until all the seed is ripe, some
of the earliest seed is likely to shatter
