Said she, “Its just a touch that makes
the gown"
“Oh yes", he answered her with a
peevish frown
The while he threw his empty check
book down,
“It's also just the touch that takes
the gown.”
(By United Press)
NEW YORK, Oct. 11—To go shop
ping with a husband in search of a
gown for his left at home spouce is
a liberal education in whats what for
the nonce in the mode. I did it yes
terday and here’s where I pass on a
little of my liberal education to those
less sartorially erudite.
The two main points gleamed are
that if you haven't any waist you are
all right, but if you haven’t any neck
you are lost. All of the gowns dragg
ed out for our inspection were either
collared high and tight and choky or
else they showed straight across, fol
lowing the line of the collar-bone in
front and the same height in back.
This is a most trying line unless the
neck is a perfect pillar of beauty,
round and young and fair, which it
isn't very often. This same neck
curved slightly to make a rounded
outline is a slight variation offered
but no supplimentary collar of lace,
net or white Georgette is allowed to
relieve or soften the chaste severity
of it’s contour.
(jccassiouauy a narrow Dana or rur
or metallic or worsted embroidery,
or a narrow band ot beads is allowed
to outline this new neck but such em
bellishment accentuates rather than
alleviates the hardness of the lines.
(I got all these perfectly good three
syllable words from the sales-duch
ess as part of my liberal education.)
The high collars are made to fast
en almost up to ones ears. You’ve
probably heard about them but if you
don them you will never hear above
them so muffled will your aural ap
pendages become in their fur-banded
tops. There will be an awful slump
in the ear muff market this winter.
These new choker collars will have
quite pushed them off the map and the
face of things.
Satan will certainly be at a loss
for an Idle hand this season for ev
ery sort of gown, afternoon, morning,
house or evening is simply smothered
in handwork of some sort, either em
broidery in worsted, silk or metallic
threads, braiding or beading.
Jet beading and fringe adds a glit
tery touch and metal brocades of all
sorts and descriptions are used in
every conceivable manner on all sorts
of gowns.
Wide bands of fur, preferably fox,
are shown as favorite garnishments
and are most effective bordering tunic
overskirts of Georgette or side panels
(of Georgette which fall almost to the
top of the hem of the underskirt.
The fur bands are also stunning on
the loose wide Chinese sleeves which
are so pjpular.
laupe, sort ana subtle. Is a favorite
'shade and vies for favor with all the
shades of blue from navy and mid
night to peacock and Nattier. Com
binations of blue and taupe or blue
and grey are very good and you may
be black and blue too if you wish to
be fashionable for combinations of the
blue and serge and black charmeuse
are decidely smart for shopping and
morning frocks.
Either you must be Chinese this
season or you must be Russian. The
lovely Chinese gowns of chiffon vel
vet elaborately embroidered in Orien
tal designs and colorings, with their
wide loose sleeves and sashes finish
ed with silken or metallic fringe are
indeed Celestial, and tho loose Rus
sian tunic gowns also elaborately
and colorfully embroidered and fur
banded are sure to do a rushin' bus
iness. Both of these models of course
show the long, loose straight lines as
do almost all other gowns. They
j ''oast r : >9 or girdles of some sort,
■ it is true, but there is no drawing in
I of them li you would look like this
I . o ison' i m >del.
By tile way, since designers in
sist on christening their latest crea
tions some little pet name like Zia,
La Chinoise, Manuela, Moonlight Mad
ness or Cosetta, why wouldn’t an ap
propriate title for these narrow and
straight-from-the-shoulder modes be
La Hooveretta. There certainly isn’t
a particle of waist about them.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11—The west,
battlefield of the old days, when the
twenty-round scraps for the world's
championships used to come frequet-1
ly, again loks like a contender. It may
be, even, that an effort will be made
to legalize the sport in some state
near the Rocky mountains.
Jimy Coffroth, promoter of many
big shows before the voters of Cali
fornia decided they did'nt want crook
ed fight promoting in their midst, has !
been east looking the thing over.
Coffroth owns a big racing plant at
Tijuana, Just across the line in old :
Mexico, a few miles from San Diego.
Coffroth. while he insists he isn’t
going to do promoting himself, nev
ertheless admits that there is a chance
that a big fight arena may be built
at his racing plant and intimated that
some big doings are in the offering.
Coffroth was east ostensibly to look
at some race horses in preparation
for the opening of his race track in
Mexico. He probably did come east
for that purpose, but he brought the
fight idea along, also, evidenced by
the announcement that offers had
been made for scraps featuring light
weights who are now bidding for a
chance at the crown of Lightweight
Champion Benny Leonard. These box
ers are preparing to pack and go to
Mexico.
,uc” atuuK came jimy jonuson
with the declaration that he was go
ing to the far, far weat with Ted Lew
is. The welterweight champion
Johnson stated, is going to indulge in ,
some of these four round affairs that
they have out in California.
The fact that Willie Ritchie has
again donned his fighting togs and is
doing four round stunts, also, looks
favorable for a match for the world’s
welterweight championsh1? between
Ted Lewis and Willie Ritchie, the
battle to be staged over the almost
forgotten forty-five round route in
Tljuna.
Efforts already have been made to
make it possible for Jess Willard to
defend his title. Jess declares when
he fights it will be for an promoter
but himself but he might be induced
to change his mind it there was no
other place to

A report comes from Dawson that
a rich placer discovery has been made
recently at the Junction of Seymour
nnd Kitchener creeks, 25 miles south
east of Selkirk, and 35 miles inland
from the Yukon river. Eight miles
of Seymour creek is reported to have
been staked, several miles of Kitch
ener, as well as several tributaries
'of the two creeks.

The Treadwell Company Is adding
many improvements to Its large foun
dry. An electric furnace and other
new machinery. Coming at this time
it seems that the Treadwell Company
must need its improvements because
of the extensive operations.
