IABC MINSTREL | NEXT THURSDAY
George ErricO to Direct Troupe in Hamilton
 Park Performance

Waterbury's kings of minstrelsy, the ABC's. under the direction of George Errico, will stage their 27th annual minstrel and dance at the Hamilton park pavilion next Thursday evening. It will mark this popular troupe's first show at the park and a capacity crowd is anticipated. All of the old ABC favorites will be in the chorus as well as a host of new faces. Jack Fitzgerald and his greater orches- tra, now the most popular in the city, will play the accompaniment and also for the dancing which will follow.
 Topping the cast will be the kingpin of minstrel entertainers, Jim Carty, former vocalist with George Whites Scandals. And Jim needs no introduction to Water bury audiences. Then there will be Dick Brown. Eddie Cudy, Andy Calo. the Brooklyn songbird; Dam ny Barrett. and many; others. The sho has been in rehearsal several weeks under the able direction of George Errico, and any show that George directs is always we'll worth the price of admission.
 Little need be said of the ABC's selection of dance music for the occasion. Jack Fitzgerald and his band are now leading the rest of the city orchestras in popularity, their most recent success being at Buckingham hall where they pleased over 2,000 people with their rendition of up-to- date dance tunes.
 If you want one grand evening of entertainment next week, check off Thursday night to go out to the park and see the 1883 edition of the A. E. C's.

they knocked down the car, with the aid of a wrench, hammer and axe and loaded part of it into a canoe, to make the dangerous crossing through thick, heavy, ice.
 Two trips across the Yukon were made, and the canoe capsized once, before they had their conveyance safely on the other side of the wide river where after several attempts they managed to get it together again and proceed. They later said that if they had started the cross ing in the daytime when it would have been possible to see the ice and hazards, they would never have tried 1t.
 Without further adventure, they continued to Carcross, where the car was sold for only $25 less than they paid for it in Dawson.
 In Carcross the four took the train to Skagway where Ward Me- Alister remained, while the other three boarded the Princess Norah for the south. Bob Grant, who was born in Dawson, is making his first trip to the Outside and while he is looking forward to it enthusiastically, is wondering if anywhere, he will find more ad- venture and fun than he has al ready had right near home.

At one point on the two-day trip, they discovered that for over five miles. one of the front tires had been missing Failing to recover the tire, in a five-mile hike back over the trail, the boys put on their one spare and continued to Yukon Crossing, where the Yukon River formed a barrier that must be crossed.
 The boys, who due to the loss of their bedding, had been unable to sleep for two days, made up for it by sleeping for twelve hours at the roadhouse at the crossing, before

Well Dressed Woman Keeps
Up With New Hat Styles

EVERY hat should be bought to COM
- plement some dress. 1 think many
women do not realize this. They will
come to buy a hat for wear with a
formal afternoon dress, but at that
moment they may be wearing tailored
suit. 1t is quite impossible for them
to buy the soft formal hat that will
harmonic with the afternoon costume
as long as they are dressed in this
tailored manner. Not only is the type
of costume entirely different in its
feeling but details are different Neck
lines, for one thing, are all-important
when one is choosing hat. The hat
that is chic and becoming when
one has tailored blouse, seems
hard and rather absurd when one Is
wearing a softly draped gown. SINH
larly, the hat that is smart with a COL
larless coat may be wholly wrong and
unbecoming when worn with a coat
with fur collar. Consequently, urge
women to buy hats that really har-
monize with their costumes. There is
only one way to do that and that Is to
wear the frock for which the hat Is
chosen at the time of purchase.
I always urge my clients to study
not only their heads when trying a new
hat, but their whole ensemble. If this
were done We would not so often see
hats that bore no relation to the cos
tune as a whole. For hat must not
only datter the face, it must f1atter the
figure as well. In other words, it must
carry out the lines of the costume,
harmonic with them and appear a real
part of the whole ensemble. 1t is only
when a hat does this that it is sue
cessful. That doesn't mean that there
is only one type of hat suitable to a
certain costume. With tailored suit
you might wear sailor, or a toque
or a fez. Each might be very smart,
yet each would be entirely different in
its effect. Each would create a diff
ferent personality. For a hat does
create personality The right hat can
add the final note of chic to a cos
tune. That is why, in my opinion,
the hat is the most important article
in woman's wardrobe

Wearing Suits.

CINCE this is a suit season In fash
ion sense, it is well to be awake to
the fact that even If you are not the
type to wear the strictly tailored jacket
and skirt, with a shirtwaist or a pull
over sweater, there Is still strong
probability that you will be wearing q
suit. for the one-piece or two-piece
dress with jacket or cape comes under
that classification.
The coat may be very brief, of elbow
length or ending at the hip or knee
II worn over a print dress it is likely
to be the same length as the dress
Capes follow the same rules-varying
from little more than a glorified collar
to shoulder. elbow or knee-long effects
Some are full length, although this style
is not generally becoming, and the
shorter are more popular.

ly box" in feeling-a theme which is
very new this season. This was worn
with a draped beige wool chechia.
Another costume of similar inspira-
tion was in the popular dark blue, both
dress and hat being in this color. The
short box jacket worn with the cos
tune was in harmonizing check in the
so-called Grow s-foot" pattern.
This same mode is also being carried
out in ensembles made up of printed
frocks and woolen coats. The collar
less coat is often fastened at the neck
line, flaring open to reveal the con-
trasting print beneath, and of course,
letting the print be seen below the
coat.
If this style continues to grow in i'm
portance, as I believe that it will, it
offers an interesting solution to the
coat problem that has troubled many
women. The dress-length coat has been
suitable only when worn with dress
of the same length. When worn with
a more normal frock with longer skirt,
this type of coat has not seemed to be
correct. Yet there have been very few
women whose budgets would permit
coats of several lengths to accompany
their various frockS. The shorter
length coat, on the contrary, is quite

and all indications seem to point in

THE new coats and jackets are often
collarless, thus giving an oppor-
tunity to the clever woman to vary
her costume through the use of scarfs
Of different colors. Often these ScarfS
are folded to a width of about two
inches, brought around the neck and
crossed in the front. Or they NAV be
worn Ascot fashion, particularly with
the sports costume or the more tailored
suit.
l have seen several young girls wear
ing bows Of stiff cire ribbon in dark
blue and black, with these coats. Others
are adopting plaid, sometimes choosing
small crushed hat of the same fabric
to match. Occasionally, the coat is
made with a collar and scarf ends,
which are tied in a single bow or an

/ Wearer.
All in all. there is a delightful in
formality about the newest coats and
jackets, and the accessories worn with
them, which should make them very
popular with the woman who likes tC
be chic in casual way.
