President Gales Calls
Financial Agent to
H. Capital City. ~

The resignation of Lie. Gilberto Va.
lenzuela, secretary of state from the
cabinet of President Gales. will not be
of consequence in the political field or
any other. A. NJ. Elias, consul general
in New York and financial agent for
Mexico, said Thursday.
Mr.. Elias, who is also the brother
of President Gales, with whom it is
said Mr.. Valenzuela disagreed on an
executive. matter, thinks the resigna-
ton will be of no consequence be-
cause the supreme power is, after all,
vested in the president.
The secretaries are only members
of the cabinet, and, therefore, simply
secretaries of the state who are re-
sponsible TO the president and in some
manner before the legislative power or
the popular representation, Mr.. Elias
said.
He arrived in San Antonio at I
a. m. and left a few hours later for
Mexico, being called there suddenly by
President Gales, instead of proceed
ing to California as he had originally
planned.

Smart Pouch Bags Are
In Various Materials

1t is difficult to interest women in
anything but pouch bags this season.
The material may be almost anything,
but it is foregope conclusion that the
new bag will be a variation of the
pouch. Tapestries, petit point, bro
cades, faille, MORE and feathers of
various kinds all lend themselves to
the uses of the smart little pouch bag.
1t almost inevitably has gold piping,
with gilt or jeweled chain handle and
frame
Color combinations continue the
rule. Some of the cleverest of the
new bags show two colors of MORE
made up together, combination which
is going particularly well being in
shades Of lanvin green and blonde.
Black and white is always a good COM
bination, and so is black and red. Both
may be seen in both fabrics and leath-
ers.

net Is also of paper A thirst fol-
knowledge rarely impels young people
to the study of apparel Of the past,
but a fancy dress party will make
them keen about it.
BY way of furthering the study Of
costume another use for crepe paper
is found in the dressing of character
dolls. Indian villages are reproduced
in the recent exhibitions given show
ing miniature warriors, squaws
medicine men, papooses fashioned of
paper and wire, among teepees and
trees made in the same way. Water
color paints and colored sealing wax
help out in decorations and the work
of making the figures proves fascinat-
ing to boys and girls. ! Incidents in
American history may be portrayed
in this way and youthful minds i'm
proved much more readily and
permanently than is possible with
simply memorizing what the books say.
Tableaux prove a great aid to the
history teacher, in which pupils take
part, clad in paper costumes.

Paris Forecasts
Fashion Changes
Gradual Flare to Replace
Sudden HemIine Widen
ing-Waistline.

The wheels Of fashion have acquired
a momentum that indicates interesting
and far-reaching developments for
summer and autumn, declares a Paris
fashion correspondent in the New York
Herald-Tribune. The mid-season Paris
showings and the professional fall ex-
hiDitions, also held in Paris, forecast
fashion changes during the next few
months which will reach the very foun-
dations Of the mode. For the benefit
of those who always desire to be
among the advance guard Of fashion,
few of the predicted developmer is
are appended
The flared hemline was the impor-
tant contribution Of spring styles and
those who feared that it's vogue was
only momentary and that the peren-
NAL straight line would soon resume
its wOnted place may rest thei-
troubled minds. The flare is here to
stay, at least for another season, and
its autuEn niche is already assured.
But it is assuming new forms anu
its late summer and autumn manifes-
tations may bear little resemblance to
the flare as it is now recognized. IN
the first place, instead Of the sudden
hemllne widening of the present mode,
the tendency is toward gradual skirt
distension, commencing at the waist
line and widening gradually until 1t
reaches the skirt hem. Instead Of the
circular cut, which was responsible for
the sudden hemline effect, gored treat
ments are used, and they are account
able for the slower and more gradua!

An Elaborate Ensemble
in Rose-Beige Wolfe

An effective and unusually elaborate
ensemble from a prominent Paris
house consists Of gown of rose-beige
wolfe In pattern outlined with gilt
and glass beads, with small nosegays
painted at intervals. The coat is Of
plain wolfe in the same shade, trimmed
only with small diagonal tucks, with
choker of orange fox. A stunning en-
sembIe in black and white has loose
sleeveless coat Of filet lace over a
straight-line frock of finely plated
black georgette.
Many different styles of trimming
are illustrated in the transparent coats
OF both plain and figured material
ribbons, silk ruching and fringe. The
slightly curved waistline Is shown by
some of the couturleres. There is re-
Iation of the transparent coat to the
frock, creating delightful harmonies of
color, charming effect with all white,
which will be particularly stylish this
year.
