[ ? Washington.?Because of "consid-!

B January, the house census committee
Is considering legislation providing for
P another enumeration of the population
i of the United States in 19U.j, or some
* ^ other year prior to the next decennial
census, Secretary Hoover says in thut
portion or lus annual report dealing
with the activities of the census bureau.
"This proposed legislation has my
approval," Mr.. Hoover says, adding
that "It has frequently been contended
that the distribution of the population
as shown by the reports of the
fourteenth census is abnormal," and
that prior to that enumeration there
was a great mo/emeut from rural to
urban districts which, since the enu>
meratlon, has been neutralized in large
measure by a reverse movement.
Affects Congress Representation.
"Further, It is said, that this shifting
of the population affected the totals
for certain states, thus Influencing
the apportionment of ropresenta*
? tives In congress."
Censns taking In January Is disapproved
on the ground tliat the weather
tn that month is a serious handicap
to the enumerator, delaying the work
and making it necessary "to take unusual
precautions to Insure a eoui,
plete canvass."
The report says that the time for
taking the next census should he In
April, as was the cose before the Inst
* census. The change for the last oen
?us was made, it says, at uie request
of various Interests making use of -agTicuitural

?Obeying the Word of Jehovah.
I. Elijah's Message to Ahab (v. 1).
This was u sturtling message, for
Ahab had not only led Israel into
hlolntrv. hut Into a repudiation of the
living God. This condition was not
brought on because he married a heathen
woman, for he married Jezebel in
order/ tliat she might help him complete
the apostasy (see ch. 1G:31).
Note the content of the prophet's
message:
1. "As the Lord God of Isrnel liveth."
Elijah knew the source of his message.
He knew that he represented the llYiug
God, therefore had no fear to
come into the presence of the king in
llis name.
2. "Before whom I stand." Because
Elijah stood before God, he could
stand before Ahab. His "standing"
before God indicates his Constant readiness
to go on His errands.
8. "There shall not be dew nor rain
these years but according to my word."
This suspension of lhoisture continued
for three and a half years (Jas. 5:17),
and was given In answer to Elijah's
prayer (Jas. 5:17). Drouth was predicted
as the punishment for Idolatry
(Deut. 11:16, 17). and the prophet was
now applying the divine Judgment.
II. Elijah's Retirement (vv. 2-10).
As soon as he had delivered his
message he retired from ,the king's
sight, while the penalty of the king's
sin should l>e visited upon the land
When the famine was sore in the land.

MANY CHANGES IN FASHIONS i
f

New Ideas in the Construction of Ap- s
parei Do Not Lie in Outline of
Garments But in Unusual <
Embellishments. I
Wherever dress is discussed one 1
hears the assertion, "There Is nothing .
new." To the casual observer, observes (
a Purls fashion writer, there Is little
that Is new. Faoin a walk nlong a
fusldonable thoroughfare one gathers (
the impression that clothes are much (
the same as they were last year. ,
But the close observer,- the one who i
reully Is interested in the fashions will i
see that there are changes?many of
them?und that these changes are i
clever and subtle. They do not lie In (

the outline of the gnrments, but In
unusual trimmings. It requires much
less effort and Ingenuity to bring out
I a silhouette that Is attention attracting
( than to evolve a beautiful and original
1 decoration. ,
Today the clever dressmaker buys
' | only a small percentage of her trim- ,
1 mi tigs ready tuade; she creates deco'
! rations suitable to the model she is
designing, often using nothing but
. | the niuterial from which the dress
! is made.
Tills is an old idea. Our grandmothers
depended lurgely upon rufi,flings,
[dealings and ilutings to eu- '
j hance tlie beauty oj^tlielr costumes, j
and it Is from these old-time trim- i
ming ideas that tlie present day selftrimming.
as it Is called, emanates.
Trimmings of Self Material.
There was nothing artistic about
tlie evenly pleated or fluted ruffles. I
Every dressmaker used them and,
stitched them to tlie dress with great '
exactness. Vastly different are the 1
delicate hand-made trimmings of today,
I carelessly tacked hero and there.
Dressmakers now excel in intricate
i n i v i* i
orams unnven t
1 j Tliore 'Is a penchant for sparkling
effects In dress and. consequently,
these cloth motifs often are covered
with a cut-work of steel heads, or
embroidered In glistening metallic
! threads.
1 tnher glinting trimmings are the'
braids that have the glistening white I
appearance of bright new sliver. Even
furs are enlivened by Inserts of such <
braids. Perhaps It <is the liking for i
glistening ornamentation that has
brought materials shot with gold Into I
so much nrnminence.
Foliage Trims Mid-Winter Dresses.
On black dresses star trimmings are |
made by glistening points of jet, and
simple black velvet gowns have sashes, >
trains ami paneJs lined with sliver and !
hiighflv tinted metal cloths. Incrustn- !
tlons of rlilnestones also are used on
black velvets. Tills combination is eg- j
pceinlly popular at the house of ,
Worth. One of Worth's best models |
Is of black velvet practically covered i
with an incrusled pattern of rhino- i

some of the houses, stress white and

to forecasting the season's
mode, that all white will not have the
popularity that white and color is ex- k
pected to receive. ^
Another feature worthy of note is (
the texture of the fabric. In many
instances it is the coarser weaves,
such as cord, mesh or those with
ribbed surfaces, that are In evidence. (
Trimmings are different, in that they f
are made from the material itself, by
cut-out motifs that are backed with i
color, or in the case of firmly woven
materials, the finishing touch Is giv- v
>n by cutting the hem into fringe, and n
ilie same trim will appear on the a

joints and narrow strips cut from two
layers of material pasted together.

The most lavish user of^ sclf-trimmlngs
Is Mudme Renee, of Purls. She
does marvelous things with materials,
working out Intricate designs In silks,,
cloths and velvets.
An example of one of the simpler
methods of trimming with strips of
the material is in chemise frock. It
Is of marron-colored crepe de chine
adorned with interlacing^strlps of tlie
silk. ? .
A dress from Margaine Lacrolx. . .\
with Innumerable strips of the cloth
form a ladder-like device. The trim- *
ining bunds are made separately and *
then loosely sewn to the gowu. The
girdle also Is constructed in this way.
This frock Is i confirmation of the
tendency to relieve dark clothes with
bright colors, the model being a black s
broadcloth, with the cascading side
panels nnd the sleeve tabs of Chinese . *j
green silk, a shade which is one of
fashion's favoultes Just now. It not
only Is used extensively as a trimming, but
takes a prominent place In footwear.
Slippers of Chinese green bro- .>
cade are smart with either black or N i
white evening gowns. ' ^
Metal Cloth Sparkling With Color.
Jenny ucliieves the unusuul through i

a straight-line dress. The scarf yoke
Is a feature with Madame Jenny. She
makes It do many new tricks, such as
forming sleeves or a train. In this
instance It makes a panel back. *
Shawls, which still hold their place (
In the sun, frequently are called updn
to do duty us trimming, and there Is no
doubt that they make one of the most . 4
graceful decorations.
Murgalne Lacrolx use^ the shawl idea
with excellent effect In a frock corn- 1
posed of sliver cloth and taupe satin.
The skirt, which Is long and uneven at
the bottom, Is of the satin. This Is attached
to a straight bodice of silver . ^

as wonderful raspberry reds.
Over the shoulders falls a scnrf ot

as the skirt. Is lined with orange col'ored
silk, und one end of tfie shawl Is
fringed with orange. The bodice Is embroidered
with steel beads and silver
threuds. Slippers of orange and sliver
brocade are worn with this costume.
Among the many details that go to
make up the winter fashions are cut- 'I

many of her frocks. Usually she se~

but, nevertheless, It is much In use. i *
7urs and Frocks i
as girdles. In many Instances they
are formed of cloth or silk. A wreath

wondrous shades of red and brown
silks Is extremely effective on a silk

for hrluht colors who, while unwilling
to make herself conspicuous by wearing
them on the street, will be quick
to take advantage of the prevailing
vogue for bright-hued clothes in the
evening.
Particular emphasis is laid on the
fuchsia topes, these nyiglng from the
deep blues and vlollne shades to those
so light that they verge on pink.

Fringes on gloves are another trimming
feature. The fringe is short and
lliick. and is run along thp outer seam,
