Widnesday, September 1, 1915, TRAW hats are tabooed today—that is, if you're a man. From now on, no matter how cherished the possession of o Panama or any of its kin may be, you must place it carefully away, friends, for another date. Around our Grain exchange this morn- ing things were fairly pacific. No gay head gears were torn in strips, as is thelr yearly fate in Chicago, but It is of note that a few thoughtless straws that entered favorite/downtown haunts this morning found a way of hiding themselves, to be called for surreptiously at a later date, ““Bob” Rutledge of the Union Pacific headquarters left his home dar- ingly this morning looking his best in a lovely Panama. Mrs, Rutledge reminded him that it was September 1, and “‘Bob’s” answer was, “Not on your life; we are going to have hot weather yet.” ‘“Dad” Weaver was greeting his friends at 9 a. m. in a good looking straw hat just as though it were July 1, and a few strays were found around the newspaper offices. There might have been a few less here had it been Saturday rather than | Wednesday! Mr. Robert Burns remembered the day and sallied forth with a brand | new felt. His straw he claims had had a couple of rough voyages recently, | otherwise it would have been in evidence this morning. Mr, A, B. Warren discarded his straw hat several days ago, unmindful of the date because of the chilly weather. Defying conventionalities, Messrs. T. M. Orr, A, C. Wakeley, Frank Wal- ters and Sam North donned straws, At the Country Club. Mr. and Mra. W. J.

Latest Fashions; Ankle Watch, Silhouette Skirt RURAL SCHOOL KID$ Advices from New York are to the effect that the fall fashions, includ- ing the ankle watch, have arrived and that they are stunners. In a short time madam’s best friend, male or female, will not be able to recognize her. She will be garbed in a coat with a huge fur col- lar that will hide her face up as far as her nose, and will wear short, voluminous skirts, reaching but a few, a very few, inches below the knees. She must show the tops of her boots this season, and they're making the boots very high. Rainbow Pigeon Ornament If madam wants to be in the best of form she must buy a rainbow pigeon and ecarry it on her wrist. This will mean that, since it would be rather awkward to ask the pigeon to move every time she wants to con- sult the wrist watch she will have to dispense with this ornament, Instead, she will wear an ankle' g watch. It's a rather perilous pro- cedure, consulting an ankle watch while walking, so the kind Parisian dressmakers are sending over some divided skirts. They're something like the directoire, and starts at the hip. Fur Cuffs on Knees Madam will wear pantalettes un- der them, and the trouserettes have cut little fur cuffs at the knee. This makes it a bit easier to get the ankle in the strategic position necessary to consult the watch, but it is probable that a majority of the women will have to catch hold of a policeman or & lamp post to see what time it is. Charles Kurzman, an {importer, Just returned from France, describes some novelties in the autumn fash- fons for women, among them being high-top boots with a dainty ‘gold watch resting on the ankle. The Silhouette Skirt The silhouette skirt, shorter and wider than ever, will prevall, and the Joffre wrap, which takes its name from France's war hero, will soon be displayed in the shop win- ugh and Oela, Soot Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey goes 11ght to the #pot.

Hoslery is to be the gayest, the ultra violet rays to predominate. “The skirts are to be shorter and very much wider,” said Mr. Kurz- man, “They will be worn with high, fancy boots and varl-colored hoslery. “The high hats will be pulled down forward over the eyes. ‘“‘Before returning 1 visited the Jenny collection in Paris and, in spite of the war, 'it was greater, grander and better than ever. I was at the resort Kzains le Balns, where the fashlons were of the gay- | est. I have found the war has mldoE the styles more sensible and wear-| able,” The photo here shows Miss Kay Laurell, one of the beauties of the: Ziegtield “Folkes,” wearing the new | aukle watch.
