What the Partisan woman seems TO
want is a quantity Of fur. Ii she can
afford the costly pelt she has 1t; II not,
she is satisfied with a substitute OF all
varying degrees of cheapness, accord
ing to the amount she wishes to spend.
Even the most fastidious women seem
to be content to wear rabbit or any
other cheap substitute for costly fur
because it is the fashion. This craze
for cheap furs applies particularly TO
their use in broad bands anu not SO
much to an entire fur garment
Never has there been greater
vogue for these cheap or imitation
furs. The Paris dressmaker does not
hesitate to make use of the pelts OF
the most domesticated animals, and
the semi-savage beast comes in for
big share of attention from fur buy
ers.
There is a new kind Of rabbit fur
called lapin ombre, made from the or

COUTURE FRAME

Hair May Be Worn Plain or

Simplicity is the keynote of the
newest coiffures which follow closely
the contour of the head and, in some
Instances, half conceal, half reveal the
feminine ear. The tendency. declares
fashion writer in the Detroit News,
is toward couture to suit the indi-

With the aid of cluster curls, or ring

OF woman's good points. be they

The smart American woman wears
her hair slightly parted on the side or

drawn softly in MARCHED waves. or

right dash to the otherwise simple
hair dress. Curls are worn by the
youthful-appearing matron as well as
the young girl but, as present styles do
not call for the coyness which is zasso-
GATED with curls, the utmost caution
should be used in introducing them in
the couture.
Now and then one sees at the thea
tiers a Well-dressed woman with iler
hair severely plain combed straight,
straight back from the forehead in the
classic style affected by the ultra-fash-
ionable women and actresses of Paris.
Sometimes a suspicion of pomade is
used to keep the rebellious hair in
place. The ends of the hair are done
in loose roll and worn low on the
neck, the ears being frankly exposed.
Our women, midway between the
conservative English and the radical
French in their manner of dressing the
hair, cling to the marcel and perma-

fringe or bangs especially suited to
their English sisters or the trying Golf

they dress their hair a la America !;

The French bob, or single as we
Americans call it, is gaining in popu-

give up the bob because it is convent

French bob differs from the American

two or three fappers are gathered to-

air to a little girl It consists merely
of a band of ribbon an inch and half

FORD TOURING CARS
REQUIRE $l1 LICENSE

All Ford touring cars will be
licensed in class "B' in 1925 and I'M
less they have reached the age limit
of FIVE years, the fee will be $11.
This is the decision made by Secre-
tary of State Zimmerman in the new
rate book just compiled. All Ford
roadsters will be licensed in class
"a" for $40; Ford touring cars and
coupes in class "B" for $11, and
Ford sedans in class "B" for $12.
Last year a distinction was made
between Ford touring cars equipped
with self-starter and demountable
rims and those that were not so
equipped, the former being licensed
i'll class "B", and the others in class
"a" This resulted in much con-
fusion and great many errors. An
investigation proves that nearly
every car is heavier when equipped
for the road than the shipping
weight.
The law provides that the license
fee shall be based upon the weight,
equipped for the road, gas, water,
oil and accessories.
