ChOker Collar Is in Fashion
Again; Long Sleeve, Too
By MARIAN HALE

Paris, Sept. 25.-One of the real
novelties of this season is our old
friend, the choker collar.
In all smart collections it pops up
with conviction. At first you do not
take it particularly seriously, but later
you realize that it has come to stay
and must be reckoned with.
Jenny finds many interesting ways
TO use the choker. On a blue serge
frock she has the collar button snug
ly about the throat in front and con-
tinue from the frock after the conyer-
tlonal manner of frocks. Will in the
back the collar itself clings to the
throat, but the neckline proceeds to
be cut in the usual round fashion.
so that instead of being continue,
ton of the back it is quite a separate
matter, offe.,:nS slight respite from
bondage, as it were.
As to Sleeves
On another Jenny frock you find
wide stock of black velvet tied in
front with a smart bow worn with a
blue serge frock with conventional
bateau neckline, there being 10 point
where the, frock and the collar join.
With the collar, of course, the long
sleeve is inevitable.
The long sleeve. hugging the arm
closely, is the only alternative from
the sleeveless effect or the mere
shoulder cap. which still continues to
be fashionable.
Serges and silks for general wear
are almost universally long s,eevei.

Variety of Interesting Subjects Discussed for Home Reading
Women Support the Best in Art; Appeal to Them

New York, Sept. /25.-Eighty per
cent of the concert and opera goers
in the United States are women. But
until bobbed haired slip of a Young
person began getting notions of her
own in her head, all concert and opera
direction was in the hands of men.

DEAR, DEAR LESLIE:

DEAR, DEAR LESLIE:
You cannot conceive how happy i

SIMPLE CAKES

These simple cake recipes may prove
boon to the woman who is busy
with canning aud picking and pre-
serving.
A cream cake that requires an icing
takes time and effort TO lake and dur
ing the canning season most house
keepers need most of their time and
effort for the extra work of canning.
Simple unfrosted cakes are incest
to serve with fresh fruits anyway.
There is. no doubt but that pastry
flour makes tenderer, lighter cakes
than ordinary bread flour when han
died b. the inexperienced baker. Pas
try flour is made from winter wheat
and is ''milled" to greater smooth
ness of texture. 1t contains less glu-
ten and more starch than bread flour.
However, the woman who bakes much
soon learns how TO get quite as good
results with bread flour as with pas
try. A fairly good rule TO remember
is to use two tablespoons less of bread
flour to each cup of pastry flour.

retains his position as president,
giving up only part of his duties.

Beyond Previous Records

Industrially, the United States is better off
than at any time in her history. As a whole the
industrial plants are running capacity or near
ly so. In view of the fact that during the war
the capacity for output of nearly every industry
in the country was increased very materially,
dustries are now working capacity means that
they are turning out more goods than ever be-
fore in their history.
This is proved by the flat figures. During
the past year the following industries have made
production records: pig iron, cotton textile, steel
ingot, crude oil, motor vehicle and locomotives.
In addition, there has been, during the last year,
the largest volume of mail order sales ever in
the history of the country, the largest volume
of retail sales, and the largest volume of rail
road car ~loadings.
The national banks on June 30 this year show
ed an increase in deposits of $577 100000 over
the corresponding date last year. The savings
deposits, as reported by $50 banks throughout
all sections of the United States for July 1,
showed $685. 100000 an increase of $6O0,000,
600 compared with July L a year ago.
The mercantile agencies report the business
failures for July the smallest in number since
November, 1920, and the liabilities of these fail
ures were lower than any month for two and
one-half years. This is a most encouraging sign
because as a rule July is one of the heaviest
months in business failures.
The employment situation is in every aspect
satisfactory. During the month of July, which is
the month of seasonal layoffs, 81 cities showed
increased employment, as against % showing
slight decreases in employment as compared
with June. Classified by industries, nine of the
fourteen basic industries showed an increase in
July as compared with June. As compared with
July n year ago, tremendous increase in employ
ment is shown in all the basic industries.

Federal Reserve Board. then composed, with one
exception, Of Democratic appoinrees of Presi-
dent Wilson.
In his statement TO Washington state voters,
Mr.. McAdoo reiterates the threadbare fiction
that the Fordney.M cCumber tariff is depri,ing
the American farmer of his foreign markets. has
afforded him no protection and is responsibic
for high prices of goods which he purchases.
This seems to be the orthodox Democratic pro-
gram, inasmuch as it is the same theory Sena-
tor Underwood recently advanced.
As has been repeated so often that it seems
ridiculous to state it again, the American farm
ers, as well as other American producers, are
selling nearly twice as much abroad as they did
under the Underwood tariff prior to the World
War.
The charge of Mr.. McAdoo that the tariff has
not protected the farmer will not get very far
in the state of Washington. Only a few days
ago a dispatch out of Seattle stated that the
Orient and the United Kingdom were increas-
ing their purchases of wheat from Canada be
cause they could obtain Canadian wheat for
much less than they could buy wheat in the state
of Washington and in other western states. If
this difference in price of wheat in Canada and
the Unc~~d States, between which there is only
an invisible boundary line, is not due to the
tariff, to what is it due?
In point of fact, records show that northwest
spring wheat, the kind raised in Washington and
other northwestern states, has sold from 10 to
20 cents a bushel more in the United States than
it has in Canada, due wholly ana exclusively to
the Fordney protective tariff.
The charge that the farmer must pay more
for what he buys because of the tariff is an
other misrepresentation which by this time is
thoroughly discredited in all well informed
circles.
The farm bloc was a determining factor in
writing the Fordney-McCumber tariff. They saw
to it that not only farm products were protected,
but that the overwhelming bulk of articles used
on the farm were put on the free list, such as all
agricultural implements, building material of
all kinds. fertilizer of all kinds, fencing and
barbed wire, binding Irvine, all leather goods,
such as harness, boots and shoes, etc, and so on
down the list.
