FASHION STRESSES
FABRIC ELEGANCE
BY CHERIE NICHOLAS

Fabrics play a most important
part this year, and by their rich
ness explain the apparent simplicity
of the styles which are the great
est challenge to the dressmaker
Velvets, lanes, brocades, laces,
tulles are all in the picture.
Lace becomes a happy medium
for day dresses, almost severe in
their simplicity. These may be re-
lieved by rich belts, patent trim
mings, etc. Lighter laces in silk or
rayon are combined with a colored
fabric lining for day dresses or two
tones used in combination as Worth
has done. Lelong takes a heavy
white wool lace for a hip-length
top of a dress which ends in a sim
pie black velvet skirt, with four
rows of the velvet used at the side
front from the high waistline to the
hip. Patou offers rosepoint collars,
cuff or bodice trim with severe
dresses-but real rose point. Schiap-
arelli makes lace of gold cord for
three huge medallions on the top
per of two-piece effect black marc
cain. While dresses are simple in
effect, fantasy goes into the head
gear.

This most commendable outti, is
sure to prove an inspiration to the
schoolgirl 1t was shown at re-
cent fall style clinic held in the
Merchandise Mart in Chicago.
Viewing the new fall fabrics one
becomes fully convinced that plaids
as a fashion "must' are definitely
here. 1t is interesting to note that
the more classic plaids are labeled
each with it's clan name. Also the
many smart ways to wear plaids
makes them all the more intriguing.
In enrolling as plaid enthusiast
we suggest that you line your jacket
to match your plaid blouse, or wear
plaid dress matched to the lining
of your coat, or top a pleated plaid
skirt with bright velveteen jacket,
or enliven your fur coat or your
fleece coat with stunning plaid lin
ing. They are showing in the stores
daring coats in forest green; radiant
autumn browns, and the very new
deep sapphire blue with bold plaid
Innings in giddy contrast.
Plaid velvet dresses to wear I'M
der fur coats is another outcome of
the present craze for plaids. You
can also find cunning jackets of
plaid velveteen. Some are bolero
versions with plaid belts to match.
If it is just touch of plaid you
favor, buy a dozen or so of the
new plaid composition buttons and
let them 60 marching down the
front of your dark velveteen dress
or coat. You can get all sorts of
plaid accessories. There are en-
sembles of beret, bag and belt.
There are belt and triangle-scarf
sets to be had in plaid.

it" when it comes to swank in
dress. There's no doubt about it,
colorful, youthful practical plaids fit
into the campus, the office and the
great outdoor scheme of things SIM
ply perfect.
All sorts of plaids are on the au-
tunn fabric list from high-tone
dressy plaids of silk velvet and
handsome wool weaves down to the
most unitarian, practical, washable
types-the kind that go bicycling
along dusty roads and then come
out "fresh as daisy" after each
Tubing.
Bicycling is fad so important
nowadays designers recognize they
must create fashions tuned to the
sport. The new sturdy washable
plaids are proving most likable for
outfits of this sort. The girl on the
''bike" as shown in the group illus
trated is fashionably and sensibly
frocked in a dependable completely
shrunk washable plaid that gives
this rider the look of being keenly
style-minded.
The schoolgirl conferred in the
picture is likewise alertly fashion
conscious in that she also selects
plaid for her voguish blouse, and
it's safe to say she will be getting a
lot of wear out of it besides enjoy
ing that feeling of confidence it
brings to be appropriately clad for
the occasion.
Another way to subscribe to the
plaid rage that is now featuring in
every phase Of fashion is to wear
a true clan plaid skirt and necker-
chief with your new fall sweater as
shown to the right in the group.

Trans-Siberian R. R.

The Trans-Siberian railroad
covers a distance of $3.50 miles
across both European and Asiatic
Russia. The work of building it
was begun at Moscow and was
rapidly extended. Orenburg was
reached in 1877. In 1880 the bridge
over the Volga was built and the
section connecting the Volga and
Obi river basins was begun. In
May, 1891, the first work on the
real Trans-Siberian railroad was
begun. AS single-track line it
was completed in 1902. The cost
was SITS, 100000.
From Moscow to Port Arthur
the entire system was cheaply
built. Constant improvements
have had to be made.

Banker Wins His Wagers
by Process of Waiting

Kansas City.-When it comes to
making bets it's wise to let the 9TH
err fellow pick the winning team, E.
F. Swinney, chairman of the board

And to back up his contention,
Swinney has a considerable num-
Der of checks which represent his

sure they had a bunch on the win
ming team.
Under the glass top of Swnney's
desk are large number of these
checks - all uncashed. Swinney
would rather keep them to remind
the losers of their bad judgment
than cash them.

Justice building-maybe we should say some of the best, for safety sake. But 1t is not an insurable hazard to visit them with the idea of getting out before starving.
 We met girl and her escort who had entered to see the murals, but in trying to get out they had cir cled around and around in the cor riders. until they passed the same murals three diffirent times.
 We told them to go down long corridor and go and go and go with out a turn until they came to a blank wall, then to the right and take the elevator to the first floor and ask the policeman there how to make the rest of the way to the street.
 Just for fun when we left the building we asked the policeman if a girl in a green knit dress had asked him how to get out, and he said no; so they may be wander ing around yet, and that was days ago.

Horoscope "The stars incline

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1887

fHlDA OC1ODEb Ao, loot
 As the month draws to a close certain stabilizing forces are dis cerned in the stars. According to astrology this should be fairly fortunate date.
 Women are well directed during this rule of the stars which is be- lieved to encourage practical as we'll as emotional hopes.
 Extremes in mental outlook now may be apparent among women. While many attain success in pub lie service others will be avid for romance. Older women will be in terested in young men.
 Astrologers warn of many di- gressions from the normal in men and women ruled by their emotions. As epoches end strange vagaries rule them.
 Workers are subject to dictator ial leadership under this planetary direction. Many may rebel against union demands, but strikes will be successful in certain parts of the country.
 The Pacific Coast will witness labor contests of great significance to the nation. Radical leaders will be active at the seaports.
 Meetings of young men and young women under this configu- ration should be most fortunate for future romances. Suitors multiply under this sway which presages many sudden weddings.
 Girls should cultivate mental and physical charms at this time when the seers foretell prominence for many in various branches of pulp lie service.
 Persons whose hirthdate it is have the augury of year of pleas ure to which ocean trips contrib ute Householders will improve their property.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be optimistic and observ- ant Subjects of this sign may have inventive or executive talents.

Recent arrivals in Juneau from Hyder, at the head of Portland Canal, report that Larry Thorn tons fabulous Chickamin Glacier ore discovery may be taken over by the Premier mining people who will perhaps do considerable diamond drill work on the claims.
 Thornton's claims were discovered under the ice of the glacier after years of tunneling along bedrock in the ice. Some of the ore has run as high as $80,000 to the ton.

NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-Salesmen and women, in department stores do their best selling after the age of fifty, says a survey issued to-. day by Charles F. Stech, market and sales analyst
 In stores in New York, Pittsburgh and several other large American cities Stech found that sales people in their fifties sold more than those in their forties: the forties more than the thirties, and the thirties more than the twentieS.
 This happened even in depart ments where the managers pre- ferred youth or good looks, or both in sales people and tried to push the youngsters ahead.
 In stores. where selling is brisk. it was explained, the fifty-year- old salesman has an average lead of nearly $50 a week in total goods sold.

"Tnsiders" and the Market
(NeW York TimeS)

(NeW 4OrR 1lIleSJ
 The continued break in the stock market last week brought renewed discussion in Wall Street re- gardng it's possible causes both in the general pusl- situation and within the market itself Particular attention has been drawn to Section 16 of the Secur ties Exchange Act, which provides that officers and directors and persons holding than 10 percent of any class of equity stock of corporation must file regular statements of any purchases or sales they may have made of the securities of their company, and that they must in addition, account to the corpora ton for any profits realized by them from the pur- chase and sale of the companys stock within period of less than six months
 It is urged that prior to the time when this provision went into effect officers directors and large stockholders of corporations tempered violent breaks or violent rises of the stocks of their corpora tons by their purchases or sales If their knoWleoge of the condition of their company convinced them that its stock selling too low for example they would step in and buy giving support to the stock But under existing law, it is contended, very few of them will attempt to do this. For if they guess right they must turn their profits over to the com pany but if they guess wrong, they must take their losses. And in either they are under the legal implication of having done something improper
 The reason for the existing legal provisions on this point is clear. It is to prevent insiders from making unfair of any prior information they are able to obtain regarding the business prospects of their company Directors and officers are in effect trustees for stockholders and ought not to be able to benefit personally sometimes at the expense ot stockholders because of their position The abuses which Section 16 is directed are therefore real But does not follow that the supposed remedy which the law now provides is desirable Eutace Seligman in discussing this provision in The Virginia Law Re- view at the time that it passed, pointed out It's essentially arbitrary character. For on the one hand it fails to cover securities held for more than six months and then sold the basis of inside in- formation; the other hand, 1t unfairly includes purchases and sales which may occur within a six months period entirely properly and in no way in reliance upon inside information. The six months test in other words bears relationship to the evil sought to be remeded; it is bed of Procrustes into which it is sought to fit proper and improper tran sections and it often works injustice upon officers, directors and large stockholders in special cases. MT Seigman expressed the opinion that complete com pusory publicity for such transactions would provide sufficient safeguards for stockh. aers In view ot the bearing of the present provisions of the law on market stability the SEC and Congress should cer tanly consider the desirability of modifying them

You are lucky to get out before the weekend.
