PRACTICAL INSTRUCTIONS IN HOME SEWING By RUTH WYETH SPEARS Back Drapery for Graceful Costume FOR CASCADE EFFECT Fashion is a pendulum swinging from the extreme in elaboration to the utmost in simplicity. The present trend is toward elaboration. Many of the newer Parisian frocks, such as the one I have sketched here, have that subtle note in their lines that shows a definite movement away from the straight sack-like costumes that have been so much in vogue for the last few years. This lovely dress is of silk crepe in a deep violet tone and depends entirely upon its own graceful lines for decoration. Complicated as its construction may seem at first glance, it is, in fact, extremely simple. The body of the costume is cut by a straight sleeveless pattern. The cascade drapery that falls from the left shoulder in the back is shaped as 1 U.S.C. Team to Play Big Double-Header Will Take on Whittier and CalTech Teams Saturday The eyes of all footballdom are on a piece of construction work that was begun last week at the University of Southern California—the building of a gridiron machine by a new engineer from the parts left by an engineer who has departed thence. Howard Jones formerly of Yale and Iowa, has stepped into the coaching shoes of "Gloomy Gus" Henderson, and has started reorganizing the sound and picking a varsity according to the famous "execute system." He has 13 days from the date of first practice till the first clash on September 26, when the Trojans will play the fourth double-header of which there is record in football animals. The other three were played in 1921, one by Harvard and two by Army. In their dual performance, the Trojans will meet Whittier College and California Institute of Technology. Jones is installing at Southern California a system new to the Pacific coast. It is a heavy rushing and passing game, founded on a fast shift to throw opening lines off balance. Western teams ordinarily get well set for offense, and then make a hard jab at an equally set offense. Against weaker opponents Jones will probably feature his rushing game. When he uses the forward pass to any extent, as he likely will in the Iowa and Stanford games, those passes, experts predict, will be the hardest to stop of any on the coast. This passing effectiveness will be due in large part to the shifting eligibility of receivers' in the Jones system. Above all, among the elements that will characterize Trojan play this fall is the relentless emphasis on "executive position, what generalship he will show, how he will handle the team under fire, Jones will discover from the approaching double-header. Kaer's immediate rivals for his job are Howard Elliott and Bill Cook. Under the Henderson regime both these men were halfbacks. Jones found in them sufficient promise of headwork to justify grooming for the Napoleonic place. The effectiveness of several other switches in position will be demonstrated or disproved by the doubleheader; the shifting of Lefelvre from half to fullback, of Behrendt from tackle to end, and of Boren from end to half. These and other changes Jones has made among the 17 lettermen left after the departure of Henderson. The new Southern California coach has declared, with the ring of sincerity in his voice, that he is highly satisfied with the material afforded by the Trojan squad, which he says compares very favorably with that of eastern colleges. How it compares with that of western colleges this season will teach him. Not in seven or eight years, Jones adds, has he had at his disposal such a supply of speedy ends. Jones is incubating at Southern California a system of signal-calling that is a variation of the "huddle" type. DEMAND SOUND ECONOMY Press dispatches say that the army, navy, shipping board and other branches of the government, as well as spendthrift politicians and bureaucats, are not in sympathy with President Coolidge in his efforts to reduce tax burdens of the people. Nobody should be more concerned in maintaining the army and navy at proper standard to insure essential national security, and nobody is in better position to judge what the appropriations should be to accomplish that purpose than the President of the United States. throw opening lines off balance. Western teams ordinarily get well set for offense, and then make a hard jab at an equally set offense. Against woken opponents Jones will probably feature his rushing game. When he uses the forward pass to any extent, as he likely will in the Iowa and Stanford games, those passes, experts predict, will be the hardest to stop of any on the coast. This passing effectiveness will be due in large part to the shifting eligibility of receivers in the Jones system. Above all, among the elements that will characterize Trojan play this fall is the relentless emphasis on "execution" which has led to the naming of Jones' method "the execute system." Jones has a dozen or more veterans from which to pick his team. He anticipates his greatest difficulties with the tackle and quarterback positions. Captain Fay Thomas will be at tackle on one side; the place left vacant on the other side by the graduation of Norman Thomas, famous trackmate of Bud Houser in shot-putting and discus throwing, remains to be filled. The man favored for quarterback in Jones' early comments is Morton Kaer, Olympic track athlete. Coach Howard Jones announced the lineups of the two teams that will meet Whittier College and California Institute of Technology in the Trojan double-header September 26. The following men will bear the brunt of the first halves of both games: Morton Kaer, quarterback; Bob Lee, fullback; Drury and Earle, halfbacks; Adams and Behrendt, ends; Friend and Captain Thomas, tackles; Gorrell and Taylor, guards, and Cravath, center. For the second halves Jones will use Elliott or Cook at quarter, Lofebvre at full, Laranetta and Boren at half, Stark and Badgro at end, Jack Westcott and Crukshank at tackle, Cox and Hershberger at guard, and Smith at center. By this double test several questions are to be settled in Jones' mind. The most important is the effectiveness of Kaer as a quarterback. Kaer is lightning-swift, and an excellent ball carrier. As a halfback under Coach Henderson last year he was a gridiron Raffles, who stole away with the ball under the combined noses of the opposing line. Whether he will develop to fit the pivot Press dispatches say that the army, navy, shipping board and other branches of the government, as well as spendthrift politicians and bureaucats, are not in sympathy with President Coolidge in his efforts to reduce tax burdens of the people. Nobody should be more concerned in maintaining the army and navy at proper standard to insure essential national security, and nobody is in better position to judge what the appropriations should be to accomplish that purpose than the President of the United States. Through the state department he is fully advised of international conditions and relations, what they are now and who they are likely to be a few years in the future. Through other departments he is fully advised of domestic conditions and needs. He is in a position and qualified by determinative information to appraise the situation as a whole and not from the restricted viewpoint of the head of only one department or branch. Whether the appropriation for the army, navy or shipping board should be $100,000,000, $300,000,000 or any other amount is a matter the President is best qualified to determine. The budget bureau has applied the ax to estimates of these departments and no doubt will swing it on others, and press reports say that they are protesting these reductions and intend to wage opposition to them in congress. In the matter of tax reduction, the people are in no mood to be trified with Tax burdens are heavy, and the people are in active accord with President Coolidge or any one else in an effort to provide relief. Not a dollar should be taken from the taxation above what is needed for an honest and economical administration of public affairs. Bureaucrafts, faddists, spendthifts and prodigal politicians have had their day. The day of prudence and sound economy in public affairs has dawned. The people do not live to be taxed nor do they want to be taxed to live. All they want is a square deal, and that they propose to have.

LEGION MEMBERS BOO RICHARDSON Chief Executive Not Popular With Soldier Boys The American Legion convention, closing at Avalon Thursday, buzzed with the thrill of the amazing incident, when the convention verbally tossed Gov. Friend W. Richardson out of the political window and boohed him steadily for several minutes. This unprecedented action, through which the Legionnaires expressed their antipathy to the state's chief executive, because of his unexplained pocket veto of Legion legislative bills, overshadowed the activities of the final session, when election of officers took place. Mrs. Anna Chapline of Orange was elected president of the Legion Auxiliary, Agnes Dutcher of Livermore being chosen vice-president, and Grace Eckert, Los Angeles, second vice-president. Mrs. Chapline is the wife of Dr. F. L. Chapline, Orange physician. Four candidates for the honor of being elected department commander were before the convention when balloting commenced. They were: Allen Blxby; Pasadena; Harold G. Ferguson, Hollywood; Phil Dodson, South Pasadena, and Leonard Wilson, Burbank. Blxby was elected. Susanville was selected as the 1926 convention city, after a contest with Stockton and Santa Rosa. The demonstration against Governor Richardson came when his belated telegram of greetings to the convention was read. Previously, Commander Nathan S. Comba had bitterly denounced the governor in his keynote address, and the legislative committee chairman, in his Above, a nose view of the ill-fated Shenandoah, in the field where it fell near Ava, Ohio.

Gun Clubs Using Too Much Water Complaint Made to the Supervisors Last Week There is no way to stop gun clubs in the southwestern part of the county from pumping water to flood their preserves, but, nevertheless, all such agitation, bearing upon the growing scarcity of water, is good for the people of Orange county. This statement was made to the county supervisors by W. A. Dyer, pioneer West Orange rancher, who appeared before the board as a member of a farm bureau committee investigating the disappearance of water supply from wells in the Garden Grove district. J. B. Eaton, spokesman for the committee, inquired from the supervisors whether there was any way to prevent the gun clubs from "taking the water from the agriculturalists." He said the gun club, wells were believed to be draining the water supply away from the Garden Grove wells, which have shown a sudden alarming drop in levels. He was told that there was no legislation on the subject and that, if there was, it might not be constitutional; the gun clubs were pumping their own water from their own land. Dyer, who said he was not personally familiar with the Garden Grove situation, but had been asked to come with the committee, expecting to meet some of the Garden Grove complainants, expressed doubt that the gun club pumping was responsible for the Garden Grove shortage in any event. There are a number of open drainage ditches between the two sections, he pointed out. "But all agitation of this sort is a good thing, anyway," he said. "The people of this county need to be shown that there is a real necessity for water conservation." Dyer then gave a graphic history of his own experiences with the water supply on his ranches along both sides of the Santa Ana river. He told how the first wells had been full to the brim, how the water level gradually dropped, until recently the supply failed altogether and new pumps had to be installed to reach a greater depth. "Don't wait for Boulder dam," he advised. "Our own mountains will give Orange county all the water supply we need, if it is all conserved." "I've been talking water conservation for the last 15 years," Dyer said. "Of course, people have laughed at me. They said that the shortage was merely due to a dry year or two. "We'll have a wet year and the water levels will all be up again," they said. Then in 1916 when we had the flood, the levels came up again and they said, 'We told you so.' But the increase was only temporary. The levels went down again and they're still going down. We are supplying many times more water than is going into it. Conservation is the only thing that will save us."

The convention's bottled wrath blew up with the arrival of the Richardson telegram, a perfunctory message of greeting. Lusty boohing continued, swelled and merged into an angry roar. Then somebody started giving the governor the "out of the window." The chorus rang to the tune of "London Bridge": "Out the window he must go. He must go, he must go. Out the window he must go. Blah—blah—blah—blah!" Rush Predicted Toward California A great rush for California within the next few years is predicted by Harry L. Heath, president of the R. D. Heath Lumber Company of Kinsley, Kansas, in a letter to W. T. Mitchell of Santa Ana. Heath and his family returned home recently, after spending some time in this state. "I don't believe that the Florida boom is going to last, and when it is over there will be a great rush for California," wrote Mr. Heath. Heath intends to remove to California within the next three years, and has decided to locate in the southern part of the state, the letter said. According to Heath, a large portion of this year's wheat and corn crops in the vicinity of Kinsley was damaged by hot weather. That the situation in Mexico is improving is shown by the fact that they are now able to use paper money instead of chile beans as a medium of exchange. California’s Place In Agriculture The state department of agriculture has just brought out the relation of our agriculture to that of other states in a new way that is perhaps the most significant of any comparison yet made. The report says: In 1923 California ranked fifth in aggregate value of crops in the United States; in 1924 sixth. As a comparison to show the intensity of cultivation in this state, the following figures are submitted: There are approximately 7,004,000 acres in field and fruit crops in California. In Texas, 17,706,000 acres were planted to cotton alone in 1924. In Iowa, 10,884,000 acres were planted to corn alone. The farm crop of Illinois covered 9,174,000 acres. Nebraska, 8,400,000 acres. In North Dakota, 19,940,000 acres were devoted to cereal crops alone. These acreages compared with the total cultivated acreage of California, give an indication of the intensity of development per acre in this state.

Mr. Merchant:--- Get "Hep" to Yourself ADVERTISING makes for prosperity—it increases business, creates a market for goods and disposes of them as necessities or because of advantages and inducements attractively set forth. It hits at hard times by putting money into circulation and keeping it there; it helps to strengthen public confidence by stimulating trade activity. Advertising is the force that moves slow sellers from counter to customer. Every advertisement is a salesman of proven ability, reaching every class, breed and sex in the community. People always prefer to buy known goods from merchants whom they know. Advertising makes you acquainted with the buying public. This "personality in print" is the greatest builder of confidence there is. Too many merchants treat advertising like they do a collector for a church. They think it costs a terrible lot until they check up on it and find out that they ain't done nothing yet." Advertising will not sell bathing suits to the Eskimo or overcoats to the South Sea Islander; some merchants, however, shoulder on it almost as difficult a job and lose confidence in advertising when it fails. Industrial history records no greater success than that of a newspaper that deserves and has the support of the community in which it is published.
