FASHIONS FOR THE SCHOOL CIRL
Her Suits for Morning and After
noon on Norfolk Lines, in
Tweed or Serge.
New York, Sept. 8, 1915.—Vacation's
over! The I'attys and Julias and Sallys
are coming from everywhere-moun
tains, shore and faraway homes, with
pretty frocks and bright, alert brains,
ready to absord all the learning possi
ble between now and next Hummer.
The time has come for Latin, Greek,
geometry, and incidentally fudge par
ties, candy pullings and midnight
lunches, not included in the regular cur
riculum, therefore far more fascina
ting; asd, of conrse, basket-ball and the
various other gymnasium stunts to help
out the physical and mental machinery
THE MORNING WALK.
Our streets are gay with them in the
early morning, these bright-faced, hap
py school-girls. They stride by in smart,
straight-heeled shoes. Norfolk suits of
tweed or serge, set off by chic velvet
tarns, hats of velour or a Boftly-colored
felt. As the days are atill bright and
warm, one often sees a trim serge frock
with bretelles, worn with a blouse of
contrasting crepe de chine, or one of
the brightly-striped or dotted voiles.
TOP COATS, SWEATERS AND GYM CLOTHES
A warm top-coat of one of the soft,
light-weight coatings brought out this
fall will not come amisB in any school
girl’s wardrobe; it is the hBndieBt thing
in the world to slip on over the one-
piece frock of serge, or over the suit
for a cross-country walk or a motor
trip. Our shops are showing aome
charmingly colored sweaters too for
the out-of-door girl, in stripes, checks
and plain materials. For the girl who
likes something "different” attractive
materials come by the yard, to be made
up, sweater-coat fashion, with any col
ored collar and cuffs she may desire.
No school outfit is complete without a
suit of bloomers of Berge or light-weight
flannel for basket-ball, bar-vaulting,
and all the other gymnastics demanded
of the healthy, athletic school-girl of
to-day.
To wear with these sweaters and top
coats there are round hats in woolen
mixtures, with a short quill or stick-up
by way of trimming, which defy snow,
rain and all kinds of weather most sat-
isfyingly.
DEMAND FOR THE ONE PIECE FROCK.
It stands to reason that if the suit
skirt is worn in the claus-room, it will
soon become shiny and shabby while
the coat remains perfectly good; here
is where the one-piece dress of serge or
gabardine is most practical, aside from
its convenience and becomingneas.
There is nothing more suitable or com
fortable than one of these simple frocks
in some dark shade, with one of the
new sashes or belts in a contrastic fab
ric and collar and cuffs, or perhaps a
guimpe or chemisette of organdy, voile
or crepe de chine. The washable guimpe,
What is So Rare as a Perfect Nose.
Atlantic Monthly.
Lovely eyes you will find a-plenty,
and though finely cut mouthB are
scarcer, it will be a strange day when
you do not see several. But the dis
covery of a really beautiful nose is an
event of a lifetime. I myself have
found exactly seven. And yet I con
sider myself catholic in my taste for
noses; I can enjoy a nose for its mere
expressiveness, whether it is aggres
sive, or aristocratic, or humorous. But
it is amazing how seldom this feature ,
really satisfies the eye. The bridge
may be too thick or too high; the line
from the forehead too abrupt or too |
severely straight. More often a nose r |j
IIHETELLK FROCK OF SERGE.
Our exclusive schools frown upon an
elaborate wardrube, no matter how pros
perous papa may be; many of them give
out a list of clothing required, with one
thing uppermost-simplicity. This does
not necessarily mean that the clothing
must be ugly. The smart little suits
and dresses of serge, tweed, or the at
tractive checks and novelty fabrics with
contrssting collars und cuffs, are smart
and becoming to a degree. One partic
ularly smurt little dress, worn the oth
er morning, was of dark gabardine, that
practical sister of serge, which wears
ao well and studs dust snd dirt so effec
tively. It had bretelles and a wide
stitched belt of the material of the skirt
and was worn with sn underblouse of
herring-bone hi rip. d crepe de chine,
cuffed with the material of the skirt
and collared with sheer, crisp organdy.
The wearer, who whs a ama^t Now
York day-school girl, carried her bun
dle of books nonchalantly over one
shoulder, nod wore her velvet tarn on
the back of her bright hair so careless
ly that more than once 1 turned for a
second look.
THE SECOND SCIT.
On matinee days and Sundays the suit
i» a trifle more dressy, of French serge,
gabardine, broadcloth, or one of the
new satin-finished materials, and is
trimmed with a line br two of braid or
a band of fur. An attractive hat of vel
vet, or satin and velvet with the soft,
drooping brim, now modish, and just a
suggestion of trimming, is most becom
ing to young girls. The soft, graceful
tilt of the brim this season is particu
larly pretty and youthful. An attrac
tive little miss from the Southland,
whoteeyes are as d irk as the oft quoted
Spanish maiden’s, wore a suit of mid
night blue velours de Isine with high
military collar of Idsck silk braid, inset,
between the rows of braid, with acar'et
and gold; the scarlet and gold was re-
p-Htel in the carved buttons w’hich
cloied the cost, Russian fashion, on the
left shoulder, in the braided girdle, urid
a min heading the hem of the short, full
skirt. With this suit, which was worn
one afternoon si a concert, she wore a
very simple blouse of baby-flesh pink
Georgette crepe. The costume was sim
plicity itself, but chic, well thought-out
simplicity.
COMFORTABLE GYM SUIT.

A WORD OR TWO ON EVENING WEAR.
One of the daintiest, moat becoming
frocks seen for many a season was de
v.doped in maize-colored crepe Geor
gette with a double skirt, a simple V
neck bodice, Bhort sleeves and a wide
sash of taffeta with hand-colored ends
repeating in the large conventionalized
rose design the color of the frock, com
bined wilh soft pink, and just a touch
here and there of African brown by
way of contrast. This frock was de
signed for a pr.tty New York giri to
wear at an evening party. It was per
feetlv suited to the occasion, and was
suited also to dinners and other socinl
demands of the young girl who has not
yet made her debut. The girl who pre
fers the top coat wilh one-piece frocks
for afternoons and more dressy occa
sums, will find a simple frock of dark
blue taffeta smart and convenient.
The editor of a country paper in
Texas announced one week ago that he
was going to print in his next issue the
name and picture of the most gossipy,
"long-tongued" woman in the town.
But the editor did not make good his
promise. Within an hour after the
piper was mailed all the doctors in the
community were battling frantically
with twenty-seven cases of nervous
prostration, while twenty-seven differ
ent husbands armed with shotguns
were lined up just outside the door of

sharpness as from coarseness. It
shows strength without obtrusivenesa,

Lightning’s Stange Freaks.
The anticB played by lightning are
aametimea almost beyond belief. A
common trick is that of undressing its
victims. In 1898 two girls and an elder
ly woman were standing by a' reaping
machine during a thunderstorm. A
lightning flash struck the woman and
killed her on the soot, while the two
girls were stripped to the skin, even
their boots being torn from their feet.
Otherwise they were safe and sound,
but much astonished.
In 1895 a man was struck by light
ning near Vallerois, in France, and
stripped naked. All that coaid be
found afterward of his clothes was a
shirt-sleeve, a few other shreds, and
some pieces of his hob-nailed boots.
Ten minutes after he was struck he re
gained consciousness, opened his eyes,
complained of, the cold and inquired
how he happened to be naked.
Such instances have been recorded
again and again. In one case a man
and two oxen were struck simultane
ously and all three killed. The man
was found stripped to the skin, and hie
boots 50 yards away.
In other words,” says Camille
Flammarion, the eminent French as
tronomer, "lightning has been known
to split men in half almoBt as with an
axe. On June 20, 1869, this happened
to a miller's assistant at a windmill near
Croix. The lightning struck him and
split him from his head downward.
A small boy who had recently passed
his fifth birthday was riding in a su
burban car with hiB mother, when they
were asked the customary question,
"How old is the boy?" After being told
the correct age, which did not require
a fare, the conductor passed on to the
next person.
The boy sat quite still, as if pondering
over some question, and then, conclud
ing that full information had not been
given, called loudly .to the conductor,
then at the other end of the'car: “And
mother’s thirty-one!”

Trucks?
a
The motor truck business was necessarily of slow growth. Not that the snperiority of the
motor vehicle—when once perfected—was unrecognized. On the contrary, every automobile
maker realized from the first that this would eventually become the most important branch of
the motor industry. But the problems were so many and the conditions to be met so exacting,
the more prominent makers hesitated to engage in it—and none did until reasonably sure they
had the right thing.
As in every other line of business, the inexperienced rushed in where the better informed
hesitated. Concerns with money to lose and reputations to be jeopardized were chary about
offering-for sale trucks of which they could not yet be sure.
On the other hand, the demand was an irresistible temptation to the more adventurous, the
inventive and the inexperienced; and so it happened that within a short time there were more
than three hundred so-called truck manufacturers (90 per cent, of them merely assemblers of
parts procured hither and yon) in the field.
The mortality has been great—and will be greater. The cost to users of buying such trucks
backed by such guarantees (?) cannot be computed.
Reo being one of the most prominent and successful makers of automobiles, was one of
those to watch, to experiment, but to hold aloof. We could not afford to compete with such a
product or with such methods as those with little moHey, and no reputation at stake, were
practicing.
On the other hand we felt that we were peculiarly well equipped to make trucks—in fact,
to take the lead in that branch of the industry, and the product had been developed to the point
where it was a dependable machine.
Reo factory facilities; Reo engineering experience; and especially the big broadspread Reo
sales and service organization, gave us advantages over all others.
Reo factory facilities enable us to manufacture a better car for less. This is a prime re-
' quisite, for, being a strictly business proposition, there is no room for extravagant margins in
the price of trucks.
So the Reo manufacturing facilities gave us an important advantage over newer concerns
in that important regard —low cost, and consequent low price.
Reo engineering is at the same time the best guarantee of stability, and the best advertis
ing for Reo tracks.
If you were asked what quality you have always considered first in Reo automobiles you
would say—dependability. Reo cars have always been reliable cars. Beginning away back in
the dark ages of the industry Reo cars covered themselves with glory in reliability runs. The
transcontinental record is still held by a Reo—never has any car made a greater record than
that of the great old two-cylinder Reo. To say Reo is to say reliability.
