Shawls And Jackets With Heavy Spangles I q it with spangles seems to be the rule for shawls this summer. Even I ..h'uvily-enihrohlered shoulder covering which hulls from sunny Spain I .teaming with them. I Oie of the smart shoips in Paris which makes a delightful showing of I is making a specialty o fthose from Grenada, not of silk but of black embroidered in every color of the rainbow and spangles I nel 'll There are also more modern ones of soft, Persian silk in narrow 88 ",.<! design with deep fringes made of narrowstrips the same material

I !nd the inevitable little gold and ' silver pieces which make it sparkle. Smaller shawls of heavy net are spangled all over with shiny pailettes in rail, blue, green and purple. Another designer is showing a charming new shawl of bright-colored silk, the favorites being jade-green and French blue with long fringes and a deep border of gold or silver spangles. A little spangled jacket of squaremeshed net covered with shiny sequins, made with or without sleeves, is also a popular wrap for summer wear. It. is particularly attractive for the cocktail hour. A novelty of the season is the little jacket of pt inted crepe de Chine on a dark background with small design, made in a loose coatshape and worn with the sports or tennis frock of pure white jersey, kasha or crepe de Chine. A kerchief, narrow belt and flat handbag, all of the same material, complete the costume.

PARIS TO RIDE ON SIDEWALKS RELOW STREETS Paris, (U.R) • simultaneously with the extension of Paris’ system of under ground railroads to reach the principal Industrial suburbs, and even to serve the throngs which now must take taxicabs if they hope to reach the races at Longchatnps, St. Cloud or it has been decided to create a system of under ground sidewalks in the city itself. The sidewalks have been the subject Os study for several years and three styles have been approved by successive Municipal Councils. The one tj be tried out first will consist of a sort of moving platform, or rather three moving platforms, operating at varying speeds. Passengers will be able to step from one to another without, the slightest danger —as soon as they become accustomed to the new system. The present intention is to apply tlie system beneath the streets connecting the various railroad stations of tlie capital. During tlie day, and probably until midnight, only light baggage will be admissible, but it is pointed out that as the French train service, as far as Paris is concerned, really is nonexistent between midnight and 6 o'clock in the morning, it will be possible to utilize the moving sidewalks for the transportation of baggage and even cany foodstuffs from the country to the central markets. it is estimated that’ the work will require at least four years to complete and a budget allowance of nearly a billion francs is foreseen. This will, however, probably be raised by the issue of a loan to, be amortized in 29 years, by which time it is said, the underground system will have more than paid for itself. o Personal? Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Beavers and son, Glenn, and Mr. and Mrs Dee Fryhack amh daughter, Kathleen, will leave to morrow for a two weeks outing at Rome City, Mr. and Mrs. Clem Kortbnber will leave, Monday, on a motor and camping trip through northern Michigan.
