Classic Tailleur Again
in Fashion Limelight

Sports clothes more or less banished
tailored suits from dressmakers' minds
for several seasons. But the classic
.tailleur is again the basic costume for
morning wear and nearly every i'm

ing few tailormades, some of them
as feature costumes.
Black is the favorite color and
jackets are hip length or three-Quar-
ter. made slightly double breasted as
a rule. Collars are long and slender
and cross in quite a low v as rule.
More buttons are used as trimming on
tailored things and some cire braid is
in evidence.
There are some examples of con-
trasting coats and skirts, checks, small
stripes and tweeds being used for the
skirt. Fine broadcloth is favorite
material for black suits.

lowering Waistline Is
Attracting Attention

Even the Parisians are somewhat in
doubt as to the proper place for waist
lines this winter. Only the profes-
sional designers who put them where
they are today seem satisfied and of
what's what.
Despite the noticeable upward trend
at the majority of significant dress
houses. there is still waistline for
every figure. Paris as a whole has
by no means accepted the normal
waistline. Several important dress
makers have not norman waistline
in their entire collection. Probably
the most general placement is an inch
above the top of the hip bone.

He'd simply pack her in his car and

So, with parting glance Of malice
at Nicely, she turned away and went
to her bedroom.
Mr.. Schwenckton stopped and, pick
ing Lizzie up in his arms as though
she were baby. carried her across
the room to big rocking-chair,
where, folded to his breast, he rocked
her until she fell asleep.
Then, very carefully so as not to
waken her, he carried her upstairs
and put her to bed.

CARROLL IS SENT
! TO Honor + ARM'
Theatrical Producers Good
Behavior in Prison Wins
Extra Freedom.
Ey the Associated Press.


ATLANTA. Ga, August 25.-For
sneritorious conduct during his con-
finement in the Federal Penitentiary
here, Earl Carroll. New York theat-
rical producer, has been rewarded
with a transfer to the prisons honor
farm to serve the remainder of his
year-and-a day sentence for perjury.
Promoted" from a clerical post in
the prison, the man who once was
one of BroadWay's gayest figures, has
attained a goal jealousy sought by in
mates--a goal which besides furnish
ing the freedom Of good sized model
farming community, provides opportu-
nifty for shortening ones sentence.
Get Extra Time Of.
Only those prisoners whose records
of behavior are above suspicion are
sent TO the honor farm, penitentiary
officials say, and they are eligible for
a reduction of five days in their terms
for each month on the reservation, at
the option of the Federal Parole
Board, as an extra good conduct al
lowance.
If he is allowed 10 profit by this.
Carroll would be eligible for parole
on October /, under the additional
prison regulation which provides that
erection of the board after one-third
of their sentence has been served.
CAROLS exact duties at the farm
have not been disclosed, but it is con-
sidered likely that he has been fitted
into the regular routine of agricul-
tural and animal husbandry opera
tons, which comprise the daily
schedule of work.
Health Is Improved.
His health was reported 10 have
shown marked improvement since he
entered the prison on a stretcher June
20 begin his sentence, after suffering
a nervous breakdown which inter
rupted his journey from New York to
the institution and which confined him
to South Carolina hospital for sew
eral weeks.
The prison farm has no iron bars or
cells. Large barns, well kept build
ings and grounds testify to its pros
perity, and there are no outward signs
of its character as a place of penal
servitude. The inmates are restricted
in their liberty only by the boundaries
of the several.hundred-acre plantation,
operation of which officials have pro
nounced an unqualified success.

for pound. chickens eat more feed than any
livestock.
If you want the cockerels for the home
table. can them just as the expensive win
ter housing and feeding period Is coming
on.
Gull your pullets carefully. Take out the
sickly, slow-growing, stunted opes. The
pullets that utilize their feed we'll for
growth will be the ones that will utilize
their feed well for egg production.
Boiled down, here are a few points for
handling the pullets:
Separate the cockerels from the pullets
at 10 or - weeks of age.
Grow the pullets ON clean ground each
year to lessen the chance of their infec-
ton with disease and intestinal worms.
Don't make them fight lice and mites,
! a-ald crowdlng by having plenty OF
roosts.
Give them plenty Of ventilation at night,
Feed a ration Of grain and mash through
out the entire growing period.
Feed milk, II possible. Have either meat
scrap or tankage In the mash, the amount
depending upon the amount of milk fed.
Don't change the feeding plan radically
at any time. II it Is desirable to retard
or to speed up maturity, make the feeding
changes slowly.
Get the pullets into laying quarters be-
fore cold weather comes.
1t takes from FIVE to six Matching eggs to
produce one good pullet In the laying
house. If you order baby chicks, order
about three times as many chicks as you
want pullets In your flock.
