United. Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS, Aug. 4 (UP) Heat, torrid
and stilling In the smart style shops
along tne boulevards of Parts, today
caused tha dressmakers to reduce
their buyers shows from the custom
ary month, to two weeks,
Marsnekins fainted in a half dozen
shops during the displays today and
this evening. As the temperature I
soared, the young women, swathed tn
clea&s and winter furs, suffocated in
the salons as they sought to move,
before the critical eyes of perspir
ing buyers from America.
On Parade 5 Minutes
The shops reduced inspeetin time
,on any given model to five minutes,
and increased the interim between
showings to permit the manneJcins to
sprawl, undraped, in their simmering
dressing rooms and cool off
Despite the heat, the buying was
active.
At Lucile Paray's, ft return to the
hobble-skirt was emphasized. The
dress, molded closely to the form is
mermaid fashion to the knees, opens
out to swirl around the ankles in
fullness at the feet. Models in gor
geous rich velvets, ermine, sable, vel
vet jersey and tri-ply satin were
shown.
Backs Cut tow
The new dinner gowns came to
mid-calf length, with high-necked
'fronts and daringly low-cut backs.
Morning and afternoon garments were
noticeably short, stopping a foot from
the floor, while Paray's evening
gowns went to extremes, some 18
Inches from the floor. Some included
train- a yard long in rich fabrics.
Woven gold threads, wide shoulders,
saucer-size buttons and huge metal
fasteners featured the novelties col
lection. At Vera Boreau'a the helmet-&at
was Introduced in colored leather, di
vided into four sections and seamed
on the outside.
She showed metal hook fasteners
accompanied by ball and chain gad
gets used as dress fastenings. Her
models stressed- basque waistlines,
wide shoulders, high necked fronts
and low-cut backs in evening gowns.
Hemlines were heavily trimmed in
fur, ribbon and feathers.
GATS' DEFENDER SAYS
DQGS SHOULD BE KEPT
OUTSIDE CITY HITS
Coming to the defense of the good
old pussy cat, be she fireside pet or
stray, an unidentified woman, called
the Mail Tribune today in answer to
a recent story, lamenting the over
supply of cat life In Medford,
"Cats are far better than dogs in
fee city," she declared; "more sani
tary, more useful, and leas destruc
tive. Dogs are hard on the lawns,
and should be kept In the country.
The cat kills squirrels and gophers,"
the woman continued, opening up
the good old-time argument of
"Which is more valuable to the home,
ft dog or ft cat."
Referring to the strays, she advised
those troubled by same to take them
In and see what an improvement re
sults in the garden; how shy all rats
and all other animals become, all be
cause of pussy's presence.
"Dogs are of no use to a home in
the city,', she further declared, re
viewing her dislike for the latter In
her garden and on the lawn.
Reminded that dog lovers will not
welcome any such sentiment, she de
clared: "Let them take them to the
country," and as a final remark, "If
they complain that will give sou
something more to write about.'
TELEPHONE SLUGS
ING COMPANY
PORTLAND, Ore,, Aug. 4. (UP)
Phone "(lugging" Isn't good taate In
Portland lnce the loot telephone
company Informed Colonel B. K. haw
son, police chief. It wished he'd do
something about the deplorable use
of slugs instead of coins in nickel
phones. The company has been losing an
average of $2500 per month due to
the excessive use of Stuga instead of
coins, it was alleged.
"I see no difference between steal
ing telephone eemce and ateallng
anything else." Lawson said, la reply.
It la a violation of state statutes
to use tokens in making telephone
calls, and a 30 to $100 tine Is pro-Tided.
Previously, the merchants got to
gether and balked at the Idea.
"Maybe tt will work, and maybe it
won't," they said. "We've got to be
shown. We want this thing explain
ed to tis. Meanwhile, we'll refuse to
join tat movement."
It was not known whether some
of them hedged and applied tor KHA
membership anyway, or whether the
decision to stay out was sot forceful
esoufh to withstand the general co
operative spirit that swept through
all neighboring communities.
Anyway, California's "biggest beef
steak" center seemed about to be en
folded by the wings of the blue
eagle, and the impending rebellion
was pretty well dissipated,
The old home of Gen. Julian Qui
roga in the heart of Laredo, Tex,,
erected Is 1868, la being rased to
make room for a modern office
building.
