Napoleon Chose Grave on
the Island of St. Helena

jamestown, Island of St. Helena,
is the town and countryside where
Napoleon spent an exile of six years.
Longwood, the house where Napo-
leon lived, is long one-story build
ing with peaked roof, high enough
for attic bedrooms for servants. The
house is partly of mortar and is
as it was when the deposed en-
peror of France lived there, notes
a writer in the Washington Post.
In this house Napoleon was vir-
tually prisoner, guarded night and
day. He was allowed walks about
the countryside, but if he strayed
too far an alarm bell rang out, call
ing him back.
During one of his rambles Napo-
leon came upon spring beneath
a great cypress tree which over
looked a peaceful valley. Many
times he returned to the place. He
grew to love the spot and finally
asked that when death came that
he might be buried there. Napoleon
died on May s., 1921, and was buried
in the space which is surrounded by
an iron fence. The body was re-
moved to Paris October Is, 1910. It

important, all-significant gesture
that has to do with current costume
design than this of tuning lace to
general daytime wear.
The grand part of the existing en-
thusiasm for lace in the daytime
is that it is revealing as it never
revealed before the practical wear
ability for all hours and the as
sured adaptability of this feminine
beloved medium. Then, too, such
wide use of lace as is now mani
fest, brings much anew of romance
and loneliness into the afternoon
hours of fashion.
Just recently pageantry of lace
was staged in the ballroom of
one of the noted superb hotels in
Miami which presented most en-
trancing scene. At this gorgeous
lace ball, which seemed almost as if
it were a glimpse of fairyland, the
program unfolded with breathtak-
ing beauty with promise of style
futures that assured an unprec-
edented vogue for lace. Notwith-
standing the lure of ravishing eve
ming creations of shirnmering filmy
lace or of the very new printed
laces or of crisp starched lace sill
houettes, or of lace in the very
new pretty colors (cyclamen
pink, thistle, azure blue and such) !,
not forgetting smart black or white,
the big message comes to us of the

HAT CROWNS LOWER
AS SKIRTS SHORTEN

Skirts are climbing higher and
higher and now rest between IA and
16 inches from the ground. In or
der not to present an awkward sill
houette, the big couturiers are ele-
waiting waistlines and thus preserve
symmetry. Daytime dresses have
high waistlines and evening gowns
60 even higher with Empire or 1910
waistlines.
Hat crowns are tumbling as skirt
lengths climb. The fowerpot crowns
of last season have come back to
normal in order not to look ridicu-
lous with the shorter shirts. Many
crowns are normally rounded while
some are squared and others irreg-
ular in shape.
1t is difficult to say what width
and proportions spring skirts will
take. Some houses show tight, mar
row and short skirts, similar to that
which was so popular earlier in the
season. Still other houses show
skirts that are slim and straight in
front but leave much back fullness,
inspired by the Directoire silhou.

hat is designed especially to COM
plement the suit, being of the iden-
teal wool lace worked with felt in
the same colors.
Likewise, the daytime dress tai
lored of lace declares it's practi-
cality as well as its f1attering, pre-
possessing looks. The two-piece
model to the left in the picture,
being smartly tailored, bespeaks all
that one could wish for to wear to
any afternoon occasion from spec
tator sports to the cocktail hour.
Just now it is proving highly ac-
ceptable for cruise or resort wear.
It is wearable, also, under the fur
coat or a new spring topcoat, if you
are faring north. 1t has puff sleeves
and high pockets on the blouse, both
of which features are pet topics
with young girls this season.
The suit illustrated to the right
speaks in dramatic terms of the use
being made of val lace edgings this
season. The shops are showing
daintiest of blouses thusly fashioned
of val and the neckwear depart
ments are making a big showing of
ravishing collar and cuff sets, bibs,
vestees and the like of this type
lace worked row-on-row on net
foundations. In this model we see
winter resort fashion such as is
to be taken seriously as forerun-
ner of style-to-be when summer
comes north. This stunning suit of
shirred val lace on a net back
ground tells better than words of
the whole-hearted way in which de-
signers are emphasizing lace this
season.
And have you seen the new lace
frocks with all-around pleated
skirts! If not you have a revela-
ton of super chic and charm await
ing you. There is a fabric type
of lace suggesting eyelet embroid
cry that yields most graciously to
this treatment. Printed laces are
immensely important

Hand Knit Goods Suited
for Day or Night Wear

Expert workmanship has now
made it possible for women to wear
hand-knit clothes for every hour Of
the day or night. Knitted clothes
being shown in Paris come in va
riety Of weaves and threads. Hand
knitted coats made Of warm, heavy
wooden threads are used for winter
sports while lacy weaves of silk
threads make cobwebby evening
gowns. Some of the clothes are knit
ted directly on the needles to fol-
low a certain pattern, but the
greater part of the materials are
knitted in great lengths so that the
material can be cut, tailored and
fitted more exactly to the styles OF
the day.

Desert Mountain Sheep

The Desert Mountain sheep lives
in the most severe environment OF
any of the Bighorn sheep of North
America. In much of it's range,
permanent water holes are 30 to SO
miles apart, and about these the
life of these hardy animals must
center during most of the year. The
desert mountain ranges which are
their homes are low, rugged, hot,
rocky, interested territory. Vege-
tation is sparse, and the whole ter
rain is the most forbidding occupied
by any major species of big game.
That the animals can find susie
nance there, where the annual pre-
cipitation may amount to less than
three inches. is astonishing.

Napoleon's copybook, used when he
was schoolboy in Corsica, where
he was born, these words are writ

St. Helena lies 1900 miles west

Debunking The IVA

In recent testimony at trial in Chattanooga,
Major Rufus w. Putnam, chief engineer of the Har-
Dor Plan of Chicago since 1926 declared that sys-
tenn of low dams for flood control and navigation on
the Tennessee River would be much more effective
and economical than the high dams being built by
the Tennessee Valley Authority.
The low dam system would cost only about rs
million dollars while the high dam system of the
iva will cost than $40 million dollars, accord
ing to Major Putnam's estimates.
But while the less expensive series of low dams
would best the needs of flood control and nav
gation there would be little electric power produc
ed Therefore, according to his testimony, the IVA
will spend about AS million dollars for power
duction facilities, about times much mon
ey would be needed if the government did not in
tend the development to be primarily a power pro-
ject
AS IVA power can be transmitted over only
limited area the rest of the country must be taxeo

Drastic Change In Conservation

Minnesota's conservation program has taken
drastic change in the matter of winter fishing which
the department has come to recognize one of the
serious problems in program of fish propagation
Five hundred lakes have been closed to winter fishing
entirely and by Governors order all lakes in the state
will be closed after December 31st. This order
given because the department recognizes that fe-
males caught in greater numbers during the win
ter season than are males. Females being laden with
spawn require more food, and therefore being more
active more easily lured victims to the fish
ermans wies. This has long been the contention of
fishermen who made study of active conditions of
fishing during the winter season. Tests made at
spawning stations reveal that the ratio of females to
males is to six and in to ten
where formerly they about even in number Con-
servation becomes greater problem larger num-
bers of people enabled to take advantage Of Min
nesotas fishing each year Thus a-year round fish
ing is greater detrment to propagation than most
of realize.
