Called for Friday Evening

at 8 o'Clock Instead of Saturday, as First Announced. The mass meeting that Is to be held of East Side residents of the Eleventh Ward, to protest against the building of sidewalks on the curb instea-d of the lot line will be held on Friday evening at eight o'clock at the LaFayette . school instead of on Saturday evening as was first announced. The property owners are particularly anxious that Mayor Brown and the members of the board of works be nresent. It is hoped that a a resuJt of this meeting the whole subject of sidewalks will be settled for all time and that subsequently the ordinance can be passed which will hereafter make the construction of walks on the lot line mandatory on the board. The fact is emphasized that If the board lets the contract on the present plan that the question will nobe settled but will keep on auaing ill feeling and strife on the ens', side for years to come. The reasons for this are plain: 1. If the walks are 'built on the

curb on Rohde avenue; the restrictions go off on all Hammond Realty j Company subdivisions. This means! that buildings of a character will

be built that will raise caln on the east side for years to come. 2. It means also that corner ownrn on Tapper and Howard avenue will then make demands on the board that walks be built on the curb 'In these case3. ' 3. It means that In not many years there will be an urgent need for the widening of the pavements

on these streets and then the walks i will have to be destroyed. 4. it means that a great manyj square feet of std-ewalk that has al 1 ready 'been put In by the city In the !

form of street Intersections will have to be torn out and rebuilt. These are the questions that will be taken up and threshed out at the meeting Friday night. The interest is intense and it is expected that the whole east side will turn out for the meeting.

Three Piece Suits ; of Tweed and Homespun ' Just on the face of things you might expect a Thre Peiece Suit to be half again as serviceable as the conventional two-piece style, but you will never know until you wear one how immensely more valuable they are even than that. The frock may be worn separately, so may the cape. With a little fashion ingenuity you can devise a costume for almost any occasion with a Three Piece Suit. $25 to $70. Snappy Sport Suits, $30 to $37.50. The Distinctiveness of These Wraps Will Immediately Impress You The ideal wrap is one cut on cape or loose wrappy lines. It can be slipped on and off with the least trouble and with the least damaging effect to the rather fragile frocks worn beneath it. These new Wraps boast a soft gracefulness that is becoming to all figures.. They are ol luxuriously soft, almost feather weight fabrics richly fringed and embroidered. Soft tones predominate, $35 to $70. Of Fashion Importance Are These Silk Frocks This sale of Silk Frocks becomes increasingly important since in the opinion of many prominent modistes,. Frocks of taffeta and crepe are to be favored above every other type for afternoon. If this is so, and it seems very likely, you will no doubt be delighted to add at least one brand new Frocks to the one you may have selected.- $25 to $50.
