CETTLEMENT of the costs of the

reached last week so far as it could
be by Elliott Wadsworth and the al
lied representative in Paris, but it
may be Washington will not accept the
plan. The allies agreed, as Mr. Wads-
worth asked, that the sums advanced
by America for the costs of its army
Of occupation shall be repaid over a
period of II years; second, these pay
ments will be made by the PREPARATIONS
commission from the cash sums paid
by Germany on the reparations ac-
count with absolute priority of %
per cent on each years payments for
IL years.
But these conditions were attached:
First, the United States is to negotiate
separately with Germany for the pay
ment Of 1,0OO,0O0,0OO gold marks; sec
ond, such payments when agreed on,
are to go through the Preparations
commission. undergoing the customary

EROM various government agencies
in Washington there came last
week reports further confirming the
stories Of enormous general prosperity
in the United States. The railroads
are doing record-breaking business
in hauling the products of factory and
farm, and although agriculture has not
yet come in for it's full share of the
good times, the increased buying pow
er Of the farmer is shown by the
spring orders of general stores and
the new business of mail-order houses.
In its report on industrial employment
conditions for April 80 the Department
of Labor says there is little unemploy-
ment anywhere in the country, and
increased demands for all classes of
skilled labor, skilled mechanics and
farm hands were general during April.
The predicted shortage of competent
farm labor already is fact
What is declared to be serious
situation throughout the country con-
fronts the building industry, and rep
resentatives Of all it's branches who
met in conference in New York last
week adopted a resolution recommends
ing that all new building construction
be deferred for few months in order
to check the steadily mounting cost
of both material and labor. Projects
under course of construction, it was
agreed, should be completed.
It is stated that building projects
totaling $100,O0O,OO0 in New York city
and $75,0O0,O0O in Chicago already are
held up Indefinitely by high costs. In
the face of this some of the building

Fancy gauntlet gloves, very short,

sum up the fashions In gloves.
The white glace kid glove embroid-

gauntlet cuffs. is the newest note, and
Is worn irrespectively with long or
short-sleeved gowns.
Mastic suede gloves in two-tone ef.
fects, namely, stitched In a darker
tone in tan or brown silk also are fash
ionable. Two-tone and two-color COM
binations are very good; also black
with color, or white with color.
Multi-colored embroideries are used
in novelty gloves sold by the high

demand for black glace kid, although
novelty gauntlets in glace kid embroid-
cred In colored silk and in metal are
still represented. No gloves are worn
with evening dresses.

In buying braided elastic, you car

When 1t comes to comparing the
woven and braided elastic there is one
difference that should be pointed ont
Woven elastic can only stretch n. far
as the length Of the warp threads
while braided elastic stretches much
farther. So you can readily see that
the strain and wear on braided elastic
would naturally be much greater. II
you are buying the wider widths. then
you would expect more satisfactory

There are as many ways of varying

rule Is that 1t must be made of some

scarf, in combination with. the cape,
is seen on many of these models.
Suits for travel have short coats

are very trim and very untrimmed, ex-

buttons. The pocket is usually fea-

More Elastic Being Used in Wearable.

any woman wanting to go back to

Is the question, How do you manage
the elastics in your camisoles and
bloomers? Do they always go to
pieces in the first washing"
A little care and thought expended
in the purchase Of this very necessary
little article in the first place would
eliminate half of the future trouble.
The characteristics of good elastic,
for which you are to look when shop
ping, are a fine strong yarn used in
its construction. and which insures
you neat, compact fabric; and rub
ber which is sturdily elastic when
stretched.
The difference in. the way elastics
are made divides them into two types,
the woven and the braided.
Wide elastics, and that used for arm
bands, garters and hose supporters, are
usually woven. To make this woven
elastic, the warp threads Of yarn. and
Of rubber are set up on the loom to-

louder, growing flushed with the crude

door. striving to catch something that
might help, might give some clue.
But the talk was all Of the brawl at
