GINGHAM IN STYLE TOBACCO'S FOES
LOSING GROUN
Fabric Popular for Dresses,
Parasols and Millinery.
Neckwear and Vestees and Blouses
Trimmed With the Material
Among the Showings.
Gingham still persists, as anyone
who wintered South, or who kept
posted on what smart women wore
under the palms, can attest. It was
Sie material out of which the great
fi "f mmtnse of morning gowns were
'li'V"1'' Altl'"u;-'h !t ma.v "Pl'ear In
consistent, ginghams were not sim
ple in general effect. They were fre
quently combined with organdie,
s etimes veiled with it, as in the
rase of strong reil-aiid-whiie checked
ginghams with apron panels of organ
die, and they were bound with every
thing from black cire to net all of
which leads one naturally to suppose
that gingham gowns are to be in style
for another summer. ,
The gown sketched is on rather sim
ple lines, the yoke cut in one with the
abbreviated sleeves being one of its
most interesting features. YoiTes are
appearing quite frequently this year,
and when a plaid or striped material
is used it is, of course, advisable to
have the lines of the material at a
different angle to those appearing in
the ret of the dress.

of plain material, frilled or banded
with gingham, are among the offerings
which are impressive.
There is rather a prejudice against
the gingham hut unless it is made of
the identical fabric of the dress, for
naturally one would hesitate at ap
pearing in two different plaids ut one
and the same time.
SUITS, SKIRTS AND BLOUSES
Modes of the Moment in the Line of
Apparel in Which Milady is Most
Interested.
Jersey suits are in favor, and are
Jtot expensive. They have, chiefly,
Ji" cited box coats and a plain two piece
g,Kirt shirred at the waist-line or
accordion pleated.
Another suit has a white jersey
skirt and a blue cheviot eout stitched
in blue.
Entire suits are made up in hairline
srriped flannel.
Two materials in one suit are used
in cheeked and plain worsted goods,
the check being in the skirt and the
coat.
Lingerie blouses have many frills.
1 ressy waists are chiefly ovcr-the-s.irt.
The V-shaped neck Is In evidence as
a change from the square and oval
ne''k.
So.t.p tailored waists are made of
fine chocked gingham.
Some of the row sldrts have a side-
f 'ront opening under a iii ep tin ';. Many
!y the skirts have Insets of pleats at
0 sides to give the extra width.
More fulness than formerly and
swathing girdles are outstanding fea
tures of the spring skirts.
Separate skirts of plaid and striked
woollen are the most popular models
of the hour.
Smart Contrast.
The coat dress, the favorite of this
senson's mode, gains originality by the
addition of a novel stolelike collar of
vivid and contrasting color. A blue
ponret twill gown thus trimmed in
Arabian red silk duvetyn will win the
hf.prova! of the woman who fully un
derstands the meaning of the French
word chic.
Popples.
Poppies are selling well for hat trim
ming. They are used almost exclu
sively, however, 00 the red braid and
rtrawi.
Canvass of 7,847 Editors Shows
7,333 Communities Against
Abolishing Weed.
ANTIS LOSE THREE STATES.
Utah, Under Mormon Influence, Only
Commonwealth to Adopt Prohibi
tion Measure During Year.
"Is tobacco going to have its scalp
added to the belt of the prohibitionist
beside that of the lamented hut as
yet not altogether late alcohol?" Is
the question asked by Garret Smith
in an article in tiie current issue of
Leslie's Magazine."
The writer readies the conclusion
that while there has been increased
agitation and legislative activity on
the subject of tobacco following the
success of the drive for prohibition
of liquor the efforts of reformers seek
ing to abolish tobacco have no general
support. This opinion is based on the
results of the questionnaires on the
subject sent out to newspaper editors
of the country by the Tress Service
Company of New York City.
The questions asked were:
(1) Do you favor the enactment of
laws prohibiting the personal use of
tobacco by adults?
(2) In your Judgment does the gen
eral sentiment of your community
favor such legislation?
(3) Is the use of tobacco personal
ly objectionable to you?
No arguments accompanied the ques
tions and from their form it was im
possible for any editor to determine
the attitude of the questioners.
Out of 12,518 editors questioned,
7.S47 replied according to the summary
given. These editors, it is estimated,
represent a combined circulation of
21,870.040. Of the 7,847 editors reply
ing, 7,393, or 95 per cent, represent
public sentiment In their communities
as opposed to anti-tobacco legislation.
Only 200 editors, or 3 per cent of
those replying believed there was any
considerable sentiment favorable to
tobacco prohibition. There were 174,
or 2 per cent. In doubt, while 20 failed
to record their Judgment.
Editors' Judgment Unbiased
"It is of special Interest to note
that 509 editors In answering the first
question, personally favored such
legislation, although only 200 of them
reported that public opinion also fa
vored the prohibition of tobacco an
indication of the conscientious effort
made by the editors to distinguish pub
lic opinion from their own personal
opinions," the article continues.
"The highest percentage of replies
reporting public opinion favorable to
prohibition of tobacco came from Utah,
where 42 per cent of the editors
thought the public were for such a
movement. Utah Is the only state
which has since adopted an antl-
! cigarette law. The result wns fore
cast by several of the editors who
stated that the influence of the Mor-
'mim Church was against tobacco. The
, Mormon Church Is also stropg In Idaho,
which is the other state where the use
of tobacco was recently prohibited,
but the governor has signed the bill
just passed, In which the prohibitory
legislation Is n pealed. In this state
SO per cent of the editors estimate
sentiment In their communities as
against tobacco prohibition, which,
i nevertheless, is 0 per cent below the
average reported opposition. . ,
"The legislature of Tennessee some
weeks ago passed and the governor
has signed a bill repealing the nntl
clgarette law of that state. The ques
tionnaire showed 93 per cent of Its
editors believed the public ngninst
anti-tobacco legislation. The legisla
ture of Arkansas has also passed a
bill repealing Its aml-eigaretTe law. In
this state 94 per cent of the editors
reported against tobacco prohibition.
Arizona's Practical Joke
"A bill, introduced In the current
session of the legislature of Arizona
to prohibit smoking In public dining
rooms nnd other public places, was
first amended to prohibit the consump
tion in public of peanuts, chewing
gum, tea nnd coffee nnd then defeated
by the senate. The questionnaire
returns from that state were 92 per
cent 'no.'
"In Imva where the 'no's' were 95
per cent a bill tn repeal the tint I
HtwreUe law -has been passed and
signed by the governor.
"A bill to repeal the nntl-clgarette
law in Kansas. VI! h Sil per cent 'no's.'
is receiving the attention of Its legis
lature. Last year a petition fur a
referendum in Oregon to prohibit the
use of tobacco faftfd of sullieient sig
natures to bring the question to a
vote, and 95 per cent of the editors
declare their public against legislation.
In Oklahoma an nntl-clgarette bill has
been reported unfavorably In the
bouse. The editors of that state re
ported 94 per cent against Its public
support.
"Outside of I'tah, where Mormon
influence predominates," the article
concludes, "the anti-tobacco move
ment appears, as In the case of Ten
nessee. Arkansas and Iowa, to be los
ing ground and Is not to any consid
erable extent supported by the peo
ple." '
The friends of tobacco feel particu
larly elated over this showing. Inas
much as 1920-21 was a maximum year
in legislative circles with 42 state leg
latures In session and the tobacco sub-
IJect received an unusual amount of
consideration.

AFFAIR CF GREAT DIGNITY
Daily Opening of Session of British
House of Commons Is a Cere
monious Matter.
The recent retirement of Hon.
William Lowther, who was speaker of
the British house of commons for lti
years, has given rise to considerable
comment on that job, which is one
of great dignity. The opening of the
daily session of commons is itself uu
affair of much solemnity.
First comes the speaker's attend
ant, wearing evening dress, with a
gold badge suspended from a chain.
As he approaches tiie inner lobby
from the corridor the sergeant
shouts. "Hats off, strangers I" and the
procession immediately enters the
lobby. Following the speaker's attend
ant comes the sergeant-at-arms
bearing the massive gold mace. Some
body recalls that it was Oliver Crom
well who cried, "Take away that
bauble," and for the time wrecked a
custom that was speedily revived.
The speaker follows the mace. He
Is attired In a black silk gown, full
bottomed wig and silk knee breeches,
the tail of the gown being lifted from
the ground by the speaker's attendant,
also gowned in silk. The chamberlain
and the speaker's secretary bring up
the rear of the parade.
It Is said that the stranger who
wns inclined to smile at this display
had only to glance at the face of the
speaker to check his levity. The
hitter's composure and the fine dignity
of his mien, robbed the ceremony of
all sr"-lTioi.s
New Reason for Dehorning.
Young red cedar trees in the
Wichita National forest are no longer
injured by , the herds which graze
there. The solution of the problem
was simple, the cattle are now de
horned. One of the drawbacks to pas
turing national forests has been the
injury which, was apt to result to tho
young growth from the grazing ani
mals. After fire-protection methods on the
Wiehitn were fairly worked out
and fires became rare Instead of
the rule, red cedar began to come
rather plentifully all over the forest
under the oak stands. As the cedur
begun to reach a little size the super
visor of the forest noticed that it was
being broken rather badly by cattle,
both In the tops and in the branches.
After some consideration the suier
vlsor decided to ask the cattlemen
users of the forest to run' none but
dehorned cattle on the Wichita.
Really Not Important. "
An Investigator claims to have dis
covered in some dusty archives that
back in the days when the Pilgrims
landed each person coming to Amer
ica from England was required to
bring with them eight bushels of corn
meal, two bushels of oatmeal, two
gallons of vinegar and a gallon each
of oil and brandy. In view of the
fact that nothing of Importance hinges
on the truth or falsity of this state
ment, not much time need be consumed
to ascertain whether this is truth or
fiction.
