Mothers Foolish Filtration Which Led to Stark TRACE,
THE FLAIR FOR FLARES
Spring Coats and Gowns Fca-
ture the Flare Treatment to
Satisfactory Advantage.
BY MARIE NIAROT

NF course, there's really
nothing new under the
sun Especially as far
as Fashions concerned. But
there Is q newness IN treatment
OF old styles, and particularly
this season. From the attic Of
~obscurity the princess style has
been hauled forth to the light Of
day, although in modified and
much more graceful line than
previously. The straight silhou-
cite still holds its place, but it il
fast taking 4 last place in the
overwhelming effort which flares
are making TO gain>t the lead.
So many stunning ways are
shown Of using the new fare
treatment, that one unconscious
ly adapts ones thoughts to the
graceful symmetry or the flow
ing line, rather than the straight
simplicity which has held sway
20 long.
One Of the loye1iest coats
shown for midseason wear II
illustrated on the left. Gored
into semi-princess line, IL fares
gracefully at the hemline. Made
of black duvetyn with fitch coli
lar and graceful, flowing cuffs,
it Is indeed q model that is suit
able to most any figure.
The godet fare achieves new
distinction in a frock of foliage
green fiat crepe. This, too. shows
the princess influence, and ID
further suggestive of the slim
silhouette. Perfectly straight
as to line in the front, the frock
Immediately becomes distinctive
by the back treatment of far
Ing godets.
The circular models are still
good, particularly in evening
frocks, where they cling avidly
TO the uneven hemline. How
ever, this style has been abol-
ished in daytime frocks, except
ing for formal afternoon wear.
Sports styles are still about
the same. The triangular scarf
holds firmly to its place, many
ensembles Of hat, bag and
matching scarf being shown.
This flair for flares, undoutt-
eddy governs the return to fem
ininity with which we have so
long been threatened.

Arrests for speed law violations show
an irregular curve. Most arrests were
made in 1925 and least in 1927. The
figures are 1854. 6,728. 5.049, 1928 and
7,547. Arrests for driving while drunk
and reckless driving were tabulated
separately only in the last three years
of the survey. The former decreased
steadily the figures being COZ, 407 and
346. Reckless driving arrests in the
three years were 1882, 1927 and 2,15l.
Miscellaneous traffic offenSes were
represented by steadily climbing arrests
in all years except 1927. The figures
are 23,253, 1896, 28,263, 32,298 and
46,318.
The increase in population during the
years of the survey is estimated by the
Health Department at 10 per cent
tfrom 504 900 in 1925 to $4,000 in
1920. During the period total arrests
for all offenseS increased 81 per cent.
