A LITTLE journey to the shops discloses an unending variety of suits to distract buyers who are out in pursuit of their “something new for Easter.”” She is a wise woman who gives-her tailored suits her most serious and thoughtful attention, for her ability to achieve distinction in them Is an acid test of her judgment. One gathers a few general impressions of things that govern the styles after all this running after strange gods In methods of decorating and management of details. The strongest s, that almost straight lines have established themselves in the favor of many women, and that suits have been swinging away from fanciful styles and toward ingenious construction and plainer effects. ' Taking the two suits shown above as good average examples of the mode, it will be seen that coats are short, although there are exceptions to this rule. Skirts are nearly always plain. and straight hanging, ‘'some of them with side plaits, and a few accordeon. plaited. . o The suit at the left is a business-like affair that may be classed as severe, and is a type that alwags finds favor: except for accurate machine stitching and a few bone buttons, it is without embglllghment. It fastens with a single button at the waist line, has a narrow belt that slips through slides at the sides and crosses the front, making & double beit there.

ux‘ MUDDLE HITS NOBLE Ligonier Has More Cash Than Needed ~ and May Turn Back Some ~ The Ligonier city council in making te tax levy last August based its calcuiations on the original valuation miide by the county assessors. The horizontal r'a_innn the city much more money n she peeded and ! Mayor Henoch says the surpius may be refundel without doing any damage j(o' the city's financial weilfare. Just ihow the school city will be affected has not been figured out. The county rwm lose a big share of her revenue. | When the Ligonier city. countil makes a levy next month it will be made with reference to the fixed ‘valuation exclustve of the l-uriz’onul' rajse made by the state board. . _ Kendallville is the only cty in the stute that is not affected by the deci‘sion of the *lte supreme cour!? in finding thi. the state board of tax com- ' missioners had eéxceeded '« authority in-. ordertmg horizontal incressecs in assessments las’ . according to the News Sun. If © npullification of thu thm‘lmntal incre ges - stands it will | nean !bn‘. oy . counties over the | state will susi n heavy losses In Elk‘lmrt county alone it 48 estimated the ihm: will aggregate $lOO.OOO. . | | Only in parts of two counties. .\’oble| ‘ and Carroll, will the funds not be re {duced as a result of the decision. .In | these counties the tax board had orf«.!erml n-dn,ct‘xpns in gv_riail;' valuaj tions. With the first valuations standj ing certain- units- will - have more { revenue than was anticipated = ™ The most confusion will result if & f part of Lake county. where the board's !wm,}o-r- increased valuations over 109 per cent. Large increasees were also ordered in Allen county. = .- In“ certain units of Noble county a | horizontal increase of 25 per cent was i made by the state tax board. - * Approximately $750,000,000 of valua{tions on which tax levies were based ;m part were taken off the tax dupli- [ cates in the state by the decision o 1 ‘the supreme.court. A motion for a re‘hearing is being prepared. . The state treasury will fall £1.350, - 000 short in: receipts because of the [ shrinkage, in valuations. Many taxing “units in ninety of the ninety-two coun- | ties, which already have practically spent ‘anticipated revenues through bond issues will find various tunds fa short of requ‘ﬁ’emema. The whole situation is complicated by ‘the fact that part of the taxes based on tife hor.zontal increases have been -collected. 1 distributed and spent. How taxpayers | who paid the sums are to receive a ' refund, and how public officiils are go|ing to recall the distributions are dif\iﬁcul’t problems. s ‘When the tax ‘board issued orders

the sides are odd and present something new for consideration. They are ingeniously cut in one with the coat and they fasten to it with a button at the middle. They widén the hips a little and are unusual enough to compel attention. , ' The second suit is cut on the same lines and arrives at the same silhouette by quite different methods. The short skirt of the coat is full at the sides, and panels at the front are covered -with & checkerboard design in silk embroidery, that also appears on the collar. A silk cord serves for a belt and the shirt is plaited. : English Hats of Felt. ~ There are many flower fashfoned from violet mes,mm in size, small blue blossoms, such as cornflower. A chic turban was made of small crushed roses of a yellowish salmon pink. Another equally charming, was made of lovely French violets. Directly at the front was a large American Beauty rose. Many of these turbans are draped in malines, or the tur ban may be carelessly draped with one of the lovely and, incidentally, costly veils, brown, taupe, black or sand tone, with figured design. : 2
