Clothes for Boys

Boys are going to be more like their
dads this year than ever before that
is in the clothing they wear. The
little fellows are taking to the Nor
folks in great numbers and the older
boys of the Norfolk age are steadily
turning to the older boys models. 1t
looks very much like general move
ment upwards in the matter OF dress
in accordance with age.
Boys are going to keep warm this
year because every maker has stressed
warmth and bigness in the over
coats.
There seems to be a tendency to-
ward the lighter colors and plaids.
Those handsome overplaids have the
call Of predominance this year and
every manufacturer in the country IS
showing these in many models and
colorings.
. Most of the overcoats have patch
pockets. Belts, of course, are found
on most every model. Sometimes
they go all around and sometimes
they are only half belts. AT any rate
The smart coat will have belt be-
cause it seems to be the most import
ant part of coat. The first thing
the boy does when he puts on an over
coat is to reach for the belt.
Almost every suit worn by the Boys
of knicker age are Norfolks. In fac
the young fellow almost refuses {"
wear any but Norfolk model. Fac

sleeves is the feature. These are in
heather shades or light tone of brush
up wool.
As the season advances to the foot
ball, hockey and skating season the
regulation sweater holds sway. These
are in heavy rope-stitch or shaker
knit weaves with flowing collars.
Plain tones, contrast trims, college
stripes and the soft, rich tones of tans
and greens and grays in brush-ups or
Angora woods are the variety that
will make up the public choice.
No noteworthy styles have been in
PRODUCED in the .tshioi:; for under
wear or pajamas. True, there are a
few novelties but none that are ex-
pected TO gain pronounced popularity.
Patterned handkerchiefs are real fash
ionable this season for men--more so
in linens than in silks. The real smart
dresser has his handkerchief of white
with specially mOnogrammed motif
in varying colors.

past season-these, of course, in cut
and flat silks.
Black and white schemes are very
well received - these in diagonal
stripes and small floral effects. Knit
ted and crocheted ties while not quite
so strong as last season will find
many adherents in the more costly
grades, this largely due TO the rich
effects introduced by specialists in
the new weaving of knitted neckwear
In these ties cathedral weaves and
the closer effects are best-more heav-
lily knit and rougher effects seem to
have fallen back in popularity.
Grenadine ties still hold their firm
position and in these rather bold ef-
fects are the vogue.
No Change in Glove Styles.
Not much that is new has appeared
in glove styles. Mochas, capes and
suedes for the early months with
buckskins following as colder weather
approaches. These gloves are made
both with the plain backs and out
seams and the colors are chiefly grey,
brown, tan. mustard and ox-blood.
In hosiery there is every indication
that fancy effects will show more
strength of popularity than hereto
fore. In the worstcd and wool soX

In silks and lislesN while plain
shades will be in majority there will
be a noticeable increase in the ador-

Even the plain shades will be en-
broidered designs. and self patterns.
Too grea tn variety of colOrs are
shown TO consider any particular

Low Collar Is Liked.
In collars for day wear the rather

and plenty of space to tie knot.
which. by the way, is to be somewhat
thicker than heretofore.
Semi-stiff collars have met with
such approval for year round wear
that. these collars must be accorded

evening dress wear the stiff collar
holds its own and the wing collar is
considered more fashionable than the

V0LSTEAD WGILANTES
AID LIQUOR SEARCHES
Secret Organizations In New Orleans
Mostly Of Women

NEW ORLEANS, June 14.-Armed
with information supplied by the
Volstead vigilantes. secret organi-
cation whose membership is known
only to o. D. Jackson, state prohibit
ton director, prohibition enforcement
agents today raided several places in
New Orleans and vicinity and seized
hundreds of gallons of wine, whisky
and beer.
The membership of the organiza-
ton which was perfected yesterday,
is not confined to any religious sect
and is composed largely of women.
Its purpose is to inform prohibition
agents of Volstead law violations.
The places raided today on tips
furnished by the crusaders included
an apparently empty stable on Ma
rigny avenue, where 1900 gallons of
wine, a 500 gallon vat of wine mash
and a large wine press were found
and destroyed, Smaller quantities of
wine, beer and whisky were found in
the other places visited.
While the vigilantes have organ
lied in but eight parishes of the
state, Mr. Jackson asserted that
others were falling into line rapidly
and he expected every parish to have
similar organizations soon.

American Petroleum Institute that
the daily output of crude last week
showed an increase of 41,Soo barrels

For the most part, the rails did
not respond as might have been eX-
pected to the reports of continued
heavy carloading. The total for the
week ending June "a was somewhat
smaller than that of the previous
week, but this was accounted for by
the holiday of May 80, which was

while on top of this were accounts of fur

clines of 33 to 100 points, while the close
was SO to 95 points net lower on the day.
July closed at range of 81 loo to 81 15c
pound after trading at 81 csc; October
