Paris Styles By Mary Knight United Press Staff Correspondent Paris, Aug. 22 —(UP) —It looks like we are going to lead a dog's life in one respect at least, if we j are to be fashionable this winter. I The thing that we, and our canine confreres, and connoisseurs, have in common is a collar. And when I we go out for a smart stroll along ! the Champs Elysees we shall look 1 much alike as far as our necks are ! concerned. Agnes Drecol uses ospreys and ; shaved ostrich feathers in a ioun-1 tain effect cominz out o tboth of a band oi brilliants as an evening collar. The misty looking spray 1 comes up to the ears and curves' gracefully. In front it is soft enough , to let the chin part it slightly with-' out discomfort. I, For the daytime. Schiaparelli 1 uses white ostrich in a single i strand close about the thioat. The | deikate fionds rest on a slightly! rough cloth frock which holds them in p ace to 'resemble a novelty trimming for the dress. Bright metal hoops, such as you ‘‘ring the baby ’ with at fairs are’ worn in tiiplicate.to show that the! baby not only has been rung once! but three times. They make a little! clattering and clanking noise that: isn’t a bit obpectionable either. We have seen one pair of white satin trousers over which was worn ! a full skirt of black, loosely woven' fishnet thread, it had a coat of 1 ' blai k corduroy. We can't say. off ' hand how crazy we were about it J ! but we can say that it created a i rare effect. j Y. M. C. CLASS ;holos annual picnic The members of the Young Mar-! •ried Couples Class of the Metho-! dist Episcopal Sunday School enjoy- ■ ed a picnic in the Lehman Park at i Berne. Friday evening. Airs.

Spider's Pro- -nee a Benefit Spiders are not produced fiom ! dirt or by hot climates. All species are carnivorous, eating insects and i Ctber spiders, and they are likelv | to he found wherever Hieir insect ; prey may be caught. When they I anter a Imine or building, they d" j so fur the purpose of cieatiii'g out flies and other inserts. 0 Superstitions That Live In the Dark ages every custom was end' wed with miraculous |iow ers. and such beliefs die hard. The people aneountered on the way to ! church or the place of baptism are supposed to have a suiierstitiou’ signitican>e. for example. Thus n beggar encountered means ill luck, nnd the bad hick may be checked by handing the beggar a luckpenny. A bla< k cat encountered is the happiest of omens. o Trumbull’s Experience After serving In the Revolution the artist. John Trumbull, went to ' London.
