New Models Show Glittering
Jet, Paiiletes and Rhinestones
The descent of the stupendous war
cloud which has enveloped Europe was
bo swift and all enveloping that every
one was taken on surprise. Paris was
full of buyers from all the great
American retail and wholesale houses,
completing their purchases for the
winter. The order for them to leave
within four days or to be detained for
an indefinite period was startling in
the extreme, especially as ' trunks
would not be transported. It was a

case of make or break with many cf
them and it immediately became a bat
tie of wits, for no one desired to leave
without their purchases, and interest
ing stories are told of the tenacity
'nnd ingenuity displayed.
One enterprising New York dress,
maker from the regions of Fifth Ave
nue persuaded her party of four to
discard all but the absolute necessi
ties and carry some of her models in
their hand-grips. She also bought a
number of very personal looking
pieces of hand-luggage and filled
them as well. Imagine their con
sternataon when at the station the
next morning at six o'clock there were
l,wo pieces of baggage ahead of
them and the officials refused to take
any more. However, with a judicious
tip hero and there, they were at last
checked; but instead of being put on
the tram for London, they were acci
dentally placed on the train for Liege
Madam sank back and fanned her
self until her reason returned to her
and then she concluded that as they
were plainly marked London she
would hope that they would get there,
and they did.
yuite different was the spirit of
London. The horrors of war had
not touched it in the same way it had
Itns. Ia Paris an entire establish
ment was closed in the morning, be
eause the husband or brother of an
omp'oye had gone to the front, only to
open again in the afternoon, while
ver all brooded a suspense not at the
time felt in London, where enthusi
asm reigned. In London, the children
formed into little regiments and
marched in the streets, with sticks
for gons and tin-pans for drums, and
the authorities, realizing the contag
ion of .pontaneous enthusiasm, en
deavored to let them go their way1 un
checked. But to return to clothes.
Some of these garments brought
back with such difficulty have at last
reached us, and a few very few, open
ings are the consequence. As long as
the uncertainty of this conflict contin
ues each importation may be the last
for some time, and therefore fs of
double, interest
The scintillating effect of jet pail
lettcii' and rhines'tbnes are supreme
in evenng gowns and are used to trim
the more taid garments for every,
day wear, For Instance a charming
afternoon, dress . of black chiffon , vel
vet had a sash of jet which crossed in
front and tied low in the back. - The
jet was so closely and beautiffully .ap
plied that the sash seemed as suppl
as the velvet itself instead of being
heavy and unwieldy as the jetted
fabrics of other days.
Another stunning costume was
made with a flaring lower skirt, as
well as the body of the jacket, of this
jetted material. The sleeves and
tunic were of velvet. The wide vel
vet collar had a band of fitch around
it.
Cloth of gold and silver are also
used extensively. A wonderful gown
of b'ack satin had a tunic of cloth of
gold and a wide satin girdle, or sash
of black satin, swathed the waist, the
ends being tied in a careless bow at
the back of the left hip in the midst
of which nestled a bright red rose.
Another wonderful costume, in part
like an Egyptian dancing girl's cos
tume, the bodice like a coat of mail,
had a plain, but not tight-fitting
wai t of steel and gold paillettes,
reminding one of the wonderful old
steel, armors, inlaid and embossed so
beautifully with gold. The waist
reached to the widest point of the
hips, where the Egypt'an effect of the
costume commenced in , a clinging
foundation skirt of white.over which
hung a tunic of gold lace. Strands of
heavy, glossy jet were looped from the
waist and hung low, making the tunic
swing and sway in a peculiar Oriental
manner. Offsetting this Oriental
note a queer narrow train, edged with
a band of fur, was so arranged that
in the event of dancing it could be
easily caught up and mingled with the
under-draperies in an unnoticeable
manner.
'The skirts of tailored suits and
dresses are worn full short, just below
the shoe-tops being considered quite
a conservative length. The plain
skirts are fuller, though many have
their width confined by a band of fur
just above the hem, making the part
of the skirt showing below quite like
a ruffle.
The cape effect continues in its pop
ularity according to these Paris
models, for coats with cape effects in
the back and quaint shoulder capes
were seen on some of the smartest
garments. A costume in red velvet
was a strong reminder of the scarlet
robe of a cardinal with its round
shoulder capes edged with beaver. A
five-inch strip of this same fur banded
the skirt above the hem
Beaver, fitch, Persian lamb, and kol
insky, which is Russian pole-cat and
resembles sable in color, are the furs
which will be widely used. Tailless
ermine is also used. A stunning opera
cloak of geranium red velvet had an
immense collar of pure white ermine,
The combination of fabrics contin
ues to be a strong style note and in
the first costume illustrated is shown
around the lower edge and bound with
black braid, while the narrow lower
skirt is of the black satn.
The smartly tailored suit illustra
ted ' of dark green repp and shows
the newest line of jacket and skru The
standing velvet collar of he jacket is
topped by the new high collar of the
blouse, wheh is practically a straight
piece of cloth with a straight frill
around the top. On some of the more
extreme waists this collar frill comes
up about the face like a great white
calla lily.

(The following account of the
death of Mrs. Grace White, formerly
of Litchfield, is taken from the Char
don, 0., Republican:)
Grace Lillian Strong was the oldest
of five children born to Otis B. and
Mary E. Strong. She was born April
9, 1877, and died Aug. 24, 1914. She
attended he public schools of her na
tive town until she went to Oberlin,
where she completed a four years' ac-
edemic course. Afterward she taught
several terms in the public schools,
and always was a student and great
reader.
On May 3, 1914, she was married to
Howard E. White, and went at once to
live in her husband's home in Litch
field, 0. There he found kind neigh
bors, and made many warm friends,
by whom she will be sorely missed.
At an early age she united wih the
Cong. Church of Huntsburg, and after
her removal to Lichfield she and her
husband became members of the
Cong. Church there. She was ever a
faithful attendant and worker in the
church, W. C. T. U. and C. E., and a
teacher for many years in the Sunday
school. She held the office of church
clerk, and her husband was a deacon.
Her death came suddenly without a
moment's warning. She was seeming-
y enjoying vigorous and robust
health. While stooping over to pick
up a garment she fell forward. Mrs,
Julia Evans, her aunt, who was vis
iting her, called to her husband. He
came and laid her on a bed, but life
was extinct. She was gone without a
word. The. doctor summoned said
death was instantaneous, and due to
heart disease. Mrs. White's funeral
was conducted by her pastor, Rev.
Steele, in her home, and her body was
brought to Huntsburg for burial be
side her mother. Friends gathered at
the grave, where the burial service
was read, and comforting words spok
en by the pastor of her old home
church, Rev. T. P. Thomas.
Mis. White was industrious, and
had a cheery word and imile for every
one. Her favorite hymn was "Sun
shine in My Soul." Her husband and
little daughter Edna, aged 7: her
father, 0. B. Strong, and, brothers
George and Rhea, and sister, Mrs,
John S. White, are left to mourn her
loss.

CUTTING ENSILAGE CORN
There is a tendency among many
farmers to cut corn for ensilage be
fore the corn is sufficiently mature.
Corn is at its best for silage when
the kernels are well dented and the
upper leaves of the stalk are still
irreen. Sometimes on account of
9
drought, most of the lower leaves
will be dry before the grains have
dented. In such cases it is much bet
ter to allow the kernels to mature
sufficiently than to cut the corn too
soon, it is necessary tnat tne siiage
be moist enough to pack well in the
silo, and, if the corn stalks and leaves
are rather dry when the kernels are
properly matured for silage making,
the corn should be wet before it is
run through the silage cutter. It is
true the silage may be more palat
able if the corn is cut while the Stalks
and leave's are green, but the feeding
value of the silage may be increased
from 10 to 20 per cent by allowing the
corn to stand in the field one week,
ness depends on ,th poultryman's
knowledge and on suitable equipment
The teaching of poultry raising , , in
the Extension Schools is heartily en
dorsed by both of the poultry associa
tions of the state and should result in
a general improvement in the quality
of and an increase in the quantity of
poultry and eggs produced V in the
state.. ... , .; . "

POULTRY RAISING TAUGHT
Instruction in poultry raising will
be given for the first time in' the Agri
cultural Extension Schools conducted
by the College of Agriculture this
year. These schools of five days each
will begin November 16 and be held in
45 different counties. At. each of
" i
the 45 schools special instruction will
be given on how to raise poultry, in a
practical, economical, common-sense
manner. Poultry raising is an all-the
year-round business and when carried
on properly is a profitable and fas
cinating work' for a man, woman, boy,
or girl. Success in the poultry busi-
