NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN, FRIDAY, SEPT. 10 ONE DOLLAR A IN ADVANCE. YEAR 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. Of course, we will never get as much for our cotton as we want or as we ought to have, but the staple is now bringing more than it has at any time Bincethe outbreak of the European war and more than the minimum price at which most of those who are holding last year’s crop then said they would be willing to sell This time last year 8 cents would have been readily ac cepted. Now the market for the best grades of cot ton is ranging between 9 and 10 cents. And so the cotton situa tion might be a whole lot worse than it is. Truth is, it was much worse a year ago.—Albany Herald. He—"I love you.’’ She—"But I haven't a which may be removed and laundered, appeala to many because of the possi bilities it offers of freshening up the dress with a variety of guimpes. 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 the editor’s .like.— Gi eensboro Herald- Juurnal.

It kesps on too long i or not long enough, while the tip finds a dozen ways to err, and a fine nostril 1 is rarely Been in our typical Ameri- 1 can faces. Overcrowded with feature, as our houses are with furniture, the nose is, commonly, disproportionately \ large. But your really beautiful nose is a delight in every way. It is as far from sharpness as from coarseness. It shows strength without obtrusivenesa, delicacy without fastidiousness, breeding without arrogance. It suggests humor, spirit and daring. But I tell you can didly that there are not more than a hundred such in the four million nosea of New York. You are lucky when one happens to come your way. 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!” American smokers spent $1,200,000,- 000 for their favorite weed last year. He—"Excuse me; cent in t) e you didn’t allow She—"So! 1 only wanted to try you. I have a fortune of $50,000.” He—"Yes, but you interrupted me again. I love you not for your money’s sake.” She—"Well, I’m so glad, for that was only a joke about the $50,000.” CALOMEL DYNAMITES YOUR LIVER!

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.
