e 7060 7648 . DEMURE AND QUAINT ARE MANY OF THE STRAIGHT LINED FROCKS At one of the recent openings several of the smartest street-frocks were fash- foned of striped velours. This mate- rial would be especially appropriate to 7660, rendering its simplicity still more effective. The required touch of bright- ness could be introduced in the broad girdle and the trimming bands on the skirt and blouse. There is just a bit of fullness on the shoulders and at the waist-line. In size 86 this design may be copled with § yards of 42 inch ve- lours. Frills and furbelows that crush and and sofl easily bave no place under the heavy winter coats that must soon maKe their appearance. A simple frock of serge will be found most agreeable. An excellent model for that dull blue serge which is still so popular is 7648. ‘The drop-shoulders and the small re- vers are sufficient trimming. A sash or girdle of brighs satin or silk would be effective and g!ve the desired touch of contrast. Sizé 36 requires 6 yards of 36 inch material. No. 7660—sizes 34 to 42, No. 7648—sizes 34 to 43.

S UNKNOWN GRAFT 1S UPSIDE DOWN Vessel Torns Turtle fi Lake Huron During Storm. MANY MAY HAVE PERISHED From Size of Steamer It Is Estimated She Carrled Crew of Thirty or, Forty—Searching Parties Patrolling Shore for Wreckage, Port Huron, Mich., Nov. 12.—Mark- Ing, it is believed, the grave of a crew of thirty or forty members, the bow' of a great steel freighter lying bot- tom side up in Lake Huron rises above the water, a. black monument, swept by huge waves rolled high by a storm now abating on the Great Lakes. The -name of the derelict is hilden’ deep in the waters. When the disas- ter occurred and the exact location are also a mystery. Another vessel may lfe at the bot- tom of the lake, within a few miles of the derelict, which probably has drift- ed several miles since the accident, Captain Reid of the tug Sarnia, which stood by the wrecked vessel all night, ventured on returning to this port. The only other theory that might account for the disaster, he says, is that the cargo of the steamer shifted. The boat lies pointed toward the mnorth- east, which would indicate that she was swung -around at the mercy of mountain high waves, against which seamanship was powerless to save her. Captain Plough, in charge of the lo- cal ‘lifesaving station, left with his crew for the scene of the wreck. Searching parties were also organized to patrol the shore in search of wreck- age. 'To avoid unnecessary anxiety on the part of relatives of sailors all along the Great Lakes local marine men are careful to prevent any guesswork iden: tifications being sent out.
