Fashion Goes to Zoo
For Seasonal Ideas
LONDON.—Fashion again is going
to the zoo for its decorative ideas of
the season.
Almost every known skin has been
taken up by the modern furrier, and
in addition the animal motiff in deco¬
ration has made its presence evident
in unexpected directions.
Jewelled animal, fish, bird and in¬
sect pins are seen a great deal on
hats. Stags, dogs, frogs and lizards
are among the favorites. A tiny
squirrel embroidered in the corner
of a pocket handkerchief is novel, and
some women even have the particular
species of pet dog they favor used
in this way.
Another striking effect for ordinary
wear is a snake embroidered in gold
thread up the front of the stockings.

structures of 100 feet in height dur¬
ing earthquakes, in the opinion of Dr.
Bailey Willis, professor emeritus of
geology at Stanford, and seismolo¬
gist.
This view, contrary to the general
conception of the layman, is support¬
ed by Dr. Willis on the theory that the
period of swing in a building of more
than 200 feet does not coincide with
the earthquake’s period of swing, and,
hence, the inertia of the building mass
stops jerking when the theoretical
pendulums pass.
A building 100 feet high swings
■with the earthquake and this receives
the maximum jerk when the subter¬
ranean pendulum changes its swing,
he said.
“There is almost no danger in the
ordinary light dwelling house unless
the chimney comes through the
roof,” Dr. Willis continued. “The
most dangerous place is on the outer
edge of the sidewalk and the ad¬
joining part of the street, where store
fronts and heavy eornices will strike.”
The safest places are in doorways
and against walls, he said.
