Hints on ^ Fashions Obviously narrowed at the wrist, the new fall coal, sleeve is marked ly free from the usual deep cuff of fur. Rather, it is very cleverly trimmed with fur so that a gauntlet or other style of glove may be worn over the wrist. Then the sleeve ] flares graciously toward the elbow.! Flat furs are employed for the j most. part, which is quite, natural since trimming pelts must be mani pulated and worked in fabric form. Long haired furs, however flattering j and softening, would prove much too ] cumbersdn. There is reason in even such small matters of dress. With sleeves in their ascendancy and gloves of such importance among costume accessories, collars of fur must bend to their will. An occasional shawl collar of long haired fur is conspicuous on cloth models, yet the fox and the lynx types are used for studied effect. Just as arc the flat furs.

One of the drivers climbed out in a fit of temper and strode up to a man standing on the sidewalk, thinking him to be the other driv er. “Say, where is your tail light?” he roared.

THE INSTALLMENT rLAN Roxboro Courie^ri We do not believe there Is any debt, a man has to pay which is quite so disagreeable as the debt we have to pay to our nation, our State and our county in the form of taxes. We have been wondering if m« might not make these pay ments more popular if we adopted the installment plan, say pay one twelfth every month. The average man or woman will buy anything and everything II only it can be bought with; a small down payment and the balance monthly. Maybe this is a solution of the tax situa tion for. like the Ford, every one has to have one. and if we could pay our taxes in small monthly payments is might popularize tax paying.
