The knowingly got up sport girl wears a loosely cut, belted coat of colored material with a cap to match. On its reverse side this material, which has a smooth, waxed, waterproof fin- ish on the outer side, is of silk or cloth, and sometimes the two sides contrast in color. A good many of the best looking winter sport coats are so put up, and always there is the becom- ing, rakish little hat to match.

NEw spnl"s s“o[s' Captured on the firing line during the L] terrific fighting which marked the bat- tle of the Marne, Flek was first sent by his French captors to a temporary prison -camp behind their lines and later transferred to the prison camp at Rouen, one of the largest and most strongly guarded prison camps in France. Free From Danger., Fiek at first enjoyed his respite from everlasting fighting by day and march- ing by night. He was content to eat the scanty prison fare of bread and soup and at night to lie on the few wisps of straw that separated him from the damp earth, resting happy in the knowledge that his loved ones in the fatherland were spared the horrors of war and that he himself was safe from French bayonets. ‘But gradually thoughts of escape en- Novelty boots as well as t.he tered his mind.

Knowing that escape to the frontiers on the east was closed by marching troops and interminable miles of trenches, he decided that his best chance to escape lay in following the course of the Seine' westward to the sea.

Their skill and enterprise won fame for the establishment in & little while. Other French and Flemish weavers followed, and the industry was fairly launched. The opening of the nineteenth cen- tury saw much experimentation in the effort to produce a satisfactory ma- chine made carpeting. Erastus B. Bige- low, an American, and Willlam Wood, an Englishman, perfected the Jacquard loom to a point where it could be de- pended upon to turn out a unmiform product of good quality. The passing years have - witnesged further impor- tant development, and results are now accomplished by mechanical process that will stand the test of comparison with the hand made article. Not until 1880 did the French turn to machinery for carpet weaving, and they at first adopted English machin- ery to a great extent.
