Economical Trantportotioe Ihml jflssr H The Economical Quality Car Chevrolet prices are not the lowest on the market, yet Chevrolet economical transportation averages lowest in cost. Thia average cost considers the purchase price, interest on investment, depreciation and all operating and maintenance Coats. A detailed comparison with any other car in the low priced fielc wiF convince yov that Chevrolet is ths beet buy because of its superior quality and because the nurchase price includes full equipment. More than a million Chevrolets are now in uss. Twelve huff- plants are now building them at the * rntc ci twenty-five hundred per working day. Nearly one-half nillion Chevrolets were bought in 1923 —tar exceeding in number the sales of any other quality car. Thus, our statements have the strongest possible backing, namely, the faith and patronage of the American people who know automobiles and know practical value" better than any other people on earth. Let any one of our seven thousand dealers show you our seven types of cars and explain how easy it is to get one and enjoy its use. Price# / o.

Chic Clothes for Misses’ Wardrobe
Velvets, Crepes, Voiles, Soft Silks and Georgettes Are in Vogue. In the tailored styles for young people are some exceedingly smart, picturesque suits, observes a fashion writer in the New York Times. One that is especially popular this season is a kilt skirt of plaid wool, cut a length to show the knees; a tailored b'louse of pongee.- and a box coat of homespun in plain or mixture. This is called a three-piece suit and is made for a young lady of ten or twelve years, though the utility and chicness of the model have created a demand for it in smaller and larger sizes. With it, for th<| younger girls, are worn a soft felt hat with narrow brim, or an Angora tam, heavy wool stockings and flat-heel calfskin shoes. There must be no mistake about the stockings or socks and shoes, for a little lady recently admonished ter mother against the impropriety of wearing silk stockings and dressy shoes with any sort of sports clothes. These three-piece suits are done In a number of combinations, usually with the plaited skirt, which may be This Cute Little Lady Is Dressed for a Party in Frilly Batiste. so conveniently worn with nny jacket or blouse and which Is so comfortable for indoor every-day wear when the coat Is laid aside. Varying the plaid and plain goods together, some smart little suits are made all of the homespun and tweeds, occasionally with a narrow tailored skirt. Channing costumes for more dressy occasions are made of velvet. With all these, pretty soft overblouses of crepe or pongee are worn, and many of fine white linen or muslin, that always give a girl’s toilet such an appearance of crisp freshness. , Vel Vet is qnite the rage this season, more especially for children's garments. Black is most popular for suits, coat and skirt, to be worn with nny pretty waist rfnd for the one-piece frocks for juniors and misses with which the gulmpes of sheer muslin are so becoming. These, of course, must he finished with needlework, trimmed with a bit of lace, Irish, Val-
Crepes in Lovely Shades
The crepea are adapted to these modes and are shown In lovely shades of the popular colors, browns and blues, greens, beige, rose, yellow and orchid. An engaging afternoon frock for a girl of fourteen or ’fifteen is worked out In pale green crepe de chine, the blouse long anti fitted loosely. The bottom of the skirt, which Is gathered quite full at the belt. Is finished with h deep hem. The round neck and the cuffs of the elbow sleeves are stitched with a slender pattern of hand embroidery Id shades of green floss. A wish of wide ribbon in Ko man colors is wound about the waist and tied In a loose knot at one title A tassel of mixed colors finishes each end of the sash. There is a sentiment toward the revival of sheer mushn and tulle tor dancing frocks such as were worn tn the airy dances of years ago. But the dance of today Is not the airy kind, and but a few exclusive models have found favor among the misses of individual taste. These are full-skirted, quaint frocks, with many ruffles of the material or frills of delicate lace.
Dainty Fans Are Shown in Charming Colors
Much of the beautiful artistic effect of the season’s evening gowns is due to the fan, which is having a decided vogue. A whole chapter might be written on the fan. its vogue from time ti» time and its contacts in the world of fashion and aocletv. Now and then lit* fan seems to fade out of the picture of tips times and to retire to the museum of fine arts. Then, with aa iMlstent claim fur Its grave, it reappears and gains a popularity that makes it one ot the distinctive features of Ute season. 4n the exclusive shops fans are now most important among the accesaories et smart dreaafng Some fans are artistic achievements, and some reproamt in their price a small fortune.

A stunning suit for a girl of fifteen is made of black velvet, the jacket and skirt banded with white rabbit fur. the blouse of white crepe de chine, with motifs and a slight edging of baby Irish lace. To complete this little fairy princess toilet Is a toque and a quaint round muff of rabbit. Squirrel is used In trimming another suit of soft green, and oue of Havana brown is untrimmed. To be worn with it are a soft, ribbon-trimmed beaver hat and a scarf of brown fox. The party dress Is the piece de resistance in a girl’s wardrobe, from her first birthday frock to the momentous costjime for her introduction rn. the social world. Lovely poetic things are designed for the girl Aho Is having her first holiday from boarding school —the happy days when there Is a round of festivities in her honor and her own little crowd has a full program of frolics. For these there must be a number of seinl-dress toilets for the matinee and luncheon and the many excursions about town. The velvet three-piece suit, plenty of fresh gulmpes, two or three soft one-piece dresses of crepe in color, a sports top coat and a dress coat, and then the “party" dresses, complete the equipment for a campaign that is likely to be as full of tliriils as any in the years to follow. The Useful One-Piece Frock.* One-piece frocks are designed for every occasion, the difference being a matter of material. In the midwinter models velvet is modish, it is so flattering to the complexion of youth, so serviceable equally for daytime and evening. A ravishing affair for a lady •of twelve dresses her like a little cardinal In scarlet velvet, with nothing to contrast with the flaming shade. A deep plaited frill of scarlet chlffoij falls from the shallow round neckline, and the frock is sleeveless. Another model in aquamarine blue velvet is edged about the neck and quarter-length tight sleeves with squirrel, and is worn over a gultnpe of tine white net, the full undersleeves of which are drawn in snugly at the waist. With the exception of velvet, little heavy material is seen in rhe one-piece dresses. There is always, of course, the Peter Thompson type of outtft for athletics and outings, and the garment of serge or cheviot with bloomers in several styles, for service. But the crepes and voiles, soft silks and geor gettes are almost universal in their vogue. Simplicity Is the keynote and In the best models elaboration of any kind Is expressed in u touch of needlework, fine embroidery or smocking Lace is sparingly and Judiciously introduced in frocks for girls, except tn those for the tots, on some of which much baby Irish and real Valenciennes lace is used. Frocks for girls at the junior age are the most difficult to select. When she is midway between girlhood and young ladyhood and growing by leaps and bounds she is a real problem in dressing. That she may appear cor rect and that she may be comfortably in her own consciousness as well as in her body and look her best as every girl at her age wishes to do, is matter for thought and taste and an infinite sense of the order and fitness of things. Happily, the present fashion is one of straight lines and little trimming, of soft materials made so that every girl, even she that is awkward, may look and feel at ease.
Some fairy like skirts are of tulle with several flounces overlapping and very full. One, all white, has each narrow ruffle edged with a single line of silver; with a ruffle around the neck aud tiny puffed sleeves. . Little slippers of silver, and a sash of silver | ribbon fastened with a petite nosegay of rosebuds and forget-me-nots create a picture to grace any day. The roost popular evening dress for girls between the ages of six and six leen is of crepe or georgette, with the slightest suggestion of trimming. A sweetly pretty model shown by an ex- j elusive shop Is of white crepe, with long blouse and slightly draped skirt, boot-top length, tlie dress having a de- < sign in white ribbon of flowers an t a trailing vine, extending from one shoulder to the knee. z _ Restful Chaise Longue Cover.

TOWNS THAT SHOW PROFIT Odd Revenues That Relieve the Taxpayers in Various British Municipalities. Many towns are today materially easing their taxpayers’ burdens by means that a few years ago would have been deemed novel and perhaps impracticable. Glasgow, for example, salvages every kind of saleable oddmeut from its refuse blns, as much as £20.000 being realised in this way In one year. Further, the corporation saves nearly £I,OOQ a year on its used tram tickets, which are carefully collected and reconverted* into paper. If Glasgow can make hundreds of-pounds in this way London might very well make thousands! But some London boroughs have an eyq, to economy in other ways. The Marylebone borough council has saved Its taxpayers large sums by collecting and sorting out its household waste. In one recent month the council made £SOO out of what local residents had thrown away. Other metropolitan boroughs are following suit. owns a theater, the Royal, and a hotel, which jointly yield an annual revenue of around about £3,000. while Birkenhead runs its own ferry service to and from Liverpool. The average gross receipts of the undertaking approximate £150.000 a year, the net profits on which go towards the relief of the taxes. Race courses are In most instances a profitable investment from the point of view of the borough in which they are located. Doncaster makes an average of £14,000 a year from its famous course. Tarmouth and Pontefract raise money In a similar way. Still, the fact remains that too many towns neglect the money-making opportunities in their midsL instead of exploiting them for the taxpayers' benefit. —London Tit-Bits. KNOW YOUR CHILD’S TEACHER Invite Her Home So That Little David Can Get the Right Impression of Her. — Many little children are acquainted with their first teacher. They are telling their mothers about her at night. Perhaps they refuse to, answer questions about her, but they imitate her in talking to the baby, or in driving the q£ws home from the pasture, they sing as she does. She is making them over and they are recording the fact in many ways. Do the mothers know her? Invite her home, mother, and see the young son’s pride, as he watches her eat your delicious rolls and baked apples. She seems to like them almost as well as he and father do. The teacher will thereafter seem different to your son David. She has sat at the family table and has helped mother with the dishes. She is not a faraway person that a boy needs to be afraid of. She is like dear Aunt Jane, who comes to the house sometimes; a guest the family will always be glad to entertain. ; Father handed her the paper when mother left to put the last touches to the meal and she told father how interested the big boys and girls are in the daily paper at school. David wonders how soon he can learn to read well enough to go to the school reading table and read the daily paper. He means to work very hard at reading so he can do It before long. When the new teacher left she told ! mother how glad she is to know that David has such a happy home; when i David thanked her that night for in--1 vlting the teacher, mother said: “Mother, at one time, taught school, David, and she has not forgotten how much better the work went in the districts where she was invited to the homes.” Bugs in Wicker Furniture. Have you wicker furniture bugs? If you hear mysterious noises coming from your wicker chair op settee you will know there is a bug working in that piece of furniture. This has been brought to light by the Pennsylvania bureau of plant industry. They have nicknamed It the “death watch beetle” and it makes a ticking sound at reg- , ular Intervals for several minutes. When news of this bug was brought out the florists’ exchange made an Investigation and found that the Insect la not a new one but has the almost unpronounceable name of “bostrychidae” and that it is rather cosmopolitan, living in nearly all kinds of wood throughout the world and is of no Importance except where works of art. fancy baskets and wicker furniture are attacked, when It makes the wootf brittle.

New Tort, with square yards of paved streets, leads all municipalities in the United States, as is ! to be expected, but Chicago is a close second with 3fi.T57.520 square yards.

Dead Sea Fruit. The apple of Sodom is the familiar name ot a species of yellow fruit which grows on the borders of the Dead sea. It is extremely beautiful to the eye. but bitter to the taste and full of small black grains, not unlike ashes. This apple is often referred to 'as the “Dead sea fruit.” and the expression used as a metaphor foe hollow. unsatisfactory pleasures.
