Two Models Emphasizing the Cape Motif
Whether on Dress or Coat the
Cape Is Again High
In Favor.

UHE little capelets that were SO
popular in the nineties are be-
ing revived-it has taken just
n few fashion showings to remove
them from quaintness and old
fashioned style to up-to-date smart
ness.
The accompanying sketch fea-
lures two models employing this
presently popular cape motif.
The cape coat to the left stresses
off-the-shoulder fur treatment
Gray fox appears on il midway be-
tween the neckline and cape edge.
II adapts itself to all manner of
varied treatment in tying; it may
be worn loosely tied, high on one
shoulder and loose on the other
side, or more securely fastened.
The gray of the fox is shown to
excellent advantage against the
dark blue of the kasha-
These cape scarves are highly
favored at the moment. There are
those who criticize their tendency
to emphasize broad shoulders
which Is really not a criticism con-
sistent with the styles of the pres

Worn with this cape-coat Is a
small blue cloche faced with rose
gray.
Equally interesting Is the
cape modification employed in the
evening wrap shown to the right.
1t is fashioned of delightfully."- soft
chiffon velvet. The cape fullness
starts low on the shoulders and
converges at a low line in the GEN.

Many Of the latest wraps are
being made with furless collars
fur not appearing at all, or being
used to trim loose-flowing sleeves.
These fur collars are of the stand
up variety which display garment
Innings. In some cases they grow
into long scarves that can be
draped gracefully about the
shoulders

LOS ANGELES, Feb. Alt is a
fact that there is an element Of
humor in every situation and there
is so much seriousness and SO much
sadness in the lives of all of US that
always like to try to find the
hun1or. That y why / prefer
Charlie Chaplin to Lon CLANCY. But
If there was anything humorous in
the court proceedings yesterday dur
ing the hearings of the case of the
people vs.. william Edward Hickman
ii has been blotted from mind by
the memory Of Perry M. Parker
upon the stand.
1t was not the result, particularly,
of what Mr.. Parker did, or what he
said. or how he said it. He was
marvelousIy seIf-controlled, though
evidently under terrific nervous
strain.
1t was the result OF what knew
was in his heart and the thing that
I knew to be in his memory.
I am wondering what Mr. Walsh
was thinking. He is. obviously, an
Intelligent boy-a nice boy and /
cannot but believe that during the
tense moments that Parker sat in
the witness chair this nice boy
must have felt some misgiyings as
to the humanity OF his act in vol
unteering to defend the monstrous
thing that is called William Edward
Hickman.
Probably no man in Los Angeles
has been more gruesome and heart
rending sights than George Com
treras. chief of detectives for the
district attorneys office.
Even he was visibly affected By
the memory OF what he saw when
he answered Mr.. Parker's sum

December night.

was affected every one was visibly
affected except the thing.
T had heard various estimates
of the cost of this trial to the tax
payers Of Los Angeles County.
One estimate was $4,000. 1T may
be more, 1t may be less.
IL Justice is done we shall not
reckon the cost, but there are
grave reasons to believe that even
though the prosecution is in the
hands of one OF the greatest
prosecuting attorneys In the United
States and is being tried before a
Judge who / understand, has a
record OF some 80 years on the
bench without a reversal, and
the issues are perfectly clear, vet

If the saloon has gone and the

upon United States death registra-
ton figures for ten states.-tne six
New England states, New York, New

The combined mortality for all
classes of population declined from

In 1900, to II per thousand in 1917

1.-THE mortality Is on a much lower
level. The six-year average death
rate is 1888 per thousand: but, on
the other hand. the trend Of the rate
ls no longer downward.
There is now a rising tendency
about as rapid an increase as was
the decrease in the pre-prohibition
period.
Not until the general tables are
classified by sex, age, and race Ia
this enigma clarified.
1.-THE years 1919 and 1920 brought
down the mortality rate to point
lower than it ever had been be.
fore, although both years had
serious influenza outbreaks in the
early months. Since then, the
death rate has been rising in the
general population and has re-
NAMED virtually unchanged among
the insured.
There has been q saving each
year of about 14,500 children under
age S; 1000 each year between 5
and 10; another 1000 between 10
and 20, total of approximately
II 500 lives a year. The whole
picture is consistent and may well
be expected to have arisen from
better conditions within the home"
But here is what 1t has all cost
the one-time master of the home:
During this period there has
been constant rise in the death
rate from alcoholism, and from tha
associated condition OF cirrhosis of
the liver. Both of these diseases
were at a minimum in 1920. They
are now at a point almost as high
Az in the decade prior to prohibit
ton. The rate is now more than
three times as high as it was only
six years ago"
