By The Associated Press,
 London, Jan. 2.-England is be- ing swept today by furious gale, the fourth in six days and the worst on record for thirty-cne years. It has spread minor havoc throughou, the country and caused a further serious rise of the waters in the Thames valley, where scores of roads have been overfown and made im- possible of use except by boats over at stretch of five miles near Wind sor and Staines.
 The force of the blow necessitated the suspension of flying at Croydon, the airdrome for London passenger planes, stopped one of the Channel steamer services and caused the can cellation of racing meets and foot ball games.
 Docs Much Damage
 In the south of England the full force of the blast was felt at Folk stone, where a heavy motor lorry was blown into the harbor. while at Portsmouth a street car was blown sidewise against a house the shock sending the glass bying from the windows in car and dwelling. Most of the south coast seaside resorts are 1 inundated, water covering the lower lying parts of the towns.
 In tho Midland industrial districts several factory chimney stacks were demolished. Telephone wires are down in many parts of the country.
 Shipping generally hustled to shcl- ter when the gale began to develop violently. There are over one hun dred vessels clustered in the Deal Downs and thirty large steamers in Tor Bay, on the Channel, including 1 the Dutch boat Johanna, driven back there after three attempts to con- ! tinue her voyage.
 Steamer Returning
 Lloyds Valencia station reports the steamer Exeter City returning 10 Queenstown for fresh water. She ! left Swansea for New York, Dec. IT. was hit by a hurricane Dec. 27 and received damage, Including q strain- ed engine, that made it unsafe for 1 her to proceed westward or make 1 the Azores.
 The fishing fleet is practically tied up. causing a shortage in the fish markets and rise in prices. Up to this afternoon only one casualty had been recorded, but the material damage done is consider able.

LONDON. Oct. 24.-Bare backs
and slit umbrella" skirts that are
shorter than ever are sensational fea-
lures of the latest evening fashions
shown for the coming seasons dance,
dinner and theater frocks.
The bare back fashion is all the
more startling when it is allied. as it
sometimes is, to long. tight-fitting
sleeves. The sleeves are attached to
shoulder braces. and are so long that
they cover the back of the hands. The
short skirt mode also accentuates the
bare backed effect.
To atone for the scarcity of ma
tcrial used these dresses are often
loaded with glittering embroidcries.
Some of the models are made entirely
of gold or silver lace with Just sash
of beautiful color ut the hip.
A tpical bare back model Of oxi-
died silver lace is cut with short
skirt and n peacock tail train. The
low corsage is held in place by two
long strands of dimante, which form
slender braces. the only covering for
the back and shoulders. The gown is
cut right away at the back with merely
A folded wisp of chiffon across the
opcn point just above the waist line.
In other evening dress models. al
though the corsagc may be cut down to
n moderate point in front. the dress is
cut away at the sides and down in a
deem curve under the arm. Then.
again. long jeweled shoulder straps are
brought over from the front of the
gown to the back to hold it in position.
Flcsh-colored chiffon is used for
the basis of these frocks. The full slit
skirts are mounted on tighter under
skirt of flesh-colored silk or chiffon.
Sometimes n woman will insist on this
slender pink chiffon covering to her
back. but many fashionable women are
expected to adopt the naked bare back
effect.
A train of crmine tails adorns one
wonderful evening frock of gold tissue.
Rare furs are shorn. bleached and
dyed TO match a required color scheme.
and laces are jewellcd to add to their
beauty.

Bare Backs, Slit Skirts
Are Mode in London

Russian turbans not only meet this
need but in their ornate embroiderings
bring color and novelty to millinery
show rooms that have been suffering
from a painful monotony in the matter
of fashionable hcadgcar.
The new Russian caps are fitted
closely to the healthier effectiveness
is 30 per cent fit and the remaining
90 beautiful embroidery. They do not
assume the classical pointed form
which one usually associates with the
national style, but follow the lines OF
the head more closely. Black and the
Russian green hat is one of the sea-
sons shades are the colors which
usually form the basis of the new cans.
but the gorgeous embroidery really
gives the color note.
Feet are more important than faces
nowadays. The days of MY face is
my fortune. sir, she said" have gone.
The dancing season has begun, and
thousands of women-and men-are
sitting round hundreds of ball rooms
watching, not faces, nor fisures-but
feet.
Enamelled buckles. expensive as
they are. are being attached to short
lived satin slippers. Beautifully
worked little sylvan scenes are en-
closed in an exquisitcly worked little
border. Such buckles would grace the
collection in n museum, but they are
for sale--at a price-to decorate mi
ladv's little feet!
The one-sided effect on shoes is "a
popular as it is on frocks. So little
diamond tassels with colored Jewel"
heads depend at the sides of the dane
ing slipper where once a mere button
would have done duty for fastening.
There is sudden fancy for Spanish
jewelry, too. and some of the buckles
that decorate leaf-brOwn satin shoes,
bronze. or golden dancing slippers are
made of Damasceen work. very beauti-
full in detail. Restrained rather than
shown are they: some are oblong. some
square, and some circular in shape.
Other shoes are hand-painted or
Buckles, then, are a Sec
ondary consideration. Sometimes n
wee satin button. painted to match the
flowers on the shoe. will be placed
right in front for trimming. just like
"baby's first shoclct." When the shoe
is strapped. as it often is, there is a
button.
