The Londoner adds: "This dummy was crowned by a straw hat" but sheiks do not wear hats in public. Before the war, in orchestra chairs at opera or theater-full dress seats men rose at each interlude, shot their opera hats or took up their high hat that they always brought to their seats, clapped these stovepipes on their heads and turned at once to bow or pretend to bow ts ladies of their acquaintance in the boxes and balcony, equally full dress.

Barrels for Packing San Francisco VP) In an effort to stabilize the grape Juice industry of California, shippers are packing their product in barrels instead of "lugs" or boxes. In barrels the grapes are frozen and placed in cold storage until market conditions assure a profit.

Then they are shipped to the point where a demand is found. Officials say the new method will prevent flooding the country with grapes during the producing season and save vineyardists from recurrence of the depression that caused severe losses last year. Grapes are said to remain fresh six months in barrels. you are as home here." "Well, at home I take my hat off." said Donnay. One need not be very old to remember when Parisi men began wearing the "smoking" or dinner jacket of the English from whom they borrowed it.

In America it became the Tuxedo. Frenchmen still think it was worn by Londoners for the pockets where they could carry a pipe, which pockets evening dress tails would not allow. The French do smoke more pipes since the war but not at dinner nor after. They are dropping the "riding coat" (frock coat) which they say was made with tails suitable for horseback riding. With autos there is no need of it they scarcely wear cutaways.

Those who live in Paris have been struck this season by persistent post-war changes In men's dress. Plus fours are certainly appearing on the boulevards but those who wear purple do not play golf.

It is the Americans who, from small boy visitors to old men, make such breeches envied by Parisians. All tweed trouserings come from the British Isles, whether "English" or not. Oxford bags were seen on Paris be blamed in certain situations.

Prom the information I have about this accl dent, such was the condition of the Bi-O- L.T NEW TOBK Channel when the pilot attempted to land. "It is my opinion that we will see all obsolete models such as figured in the crash discontinued at once. The operators will not take any more cnances." Fokker's Opinion. According to Anthony H. G.

Fok-ker. president of the Fokker Aircraft Corporation, sufficient reserve power, in the event of motor failure, is the solution to the problem of preventing similar accidents. L(DIEIEm9Gc FCLTON at BOJVft TRIANGLE 8100 With the incrrased reserve power now a feature of the large, modern, multi-motored planes, accidents such as the crash of the Handley-Page twin-motored transchannel airliner of the Imperial Airways will be virtually an impossibility, in the opinion of leaders in aviation here. The advanced principle involved in the building of the latest twin-motored ships allows for their construction so that they are capable of maintaining altitude and in some cases increasing their altitude, re-sardless of whether one of the motors is cut out. Casey Jones' View.

"The old type transport plane, as typified by the Handley-Page ship, which had been built several years ago. was not on this principle," C. S. (Casey) Jones, head of the Curtis Flying Service, said in commenting on the mishap. "It was considered sufficient for these planes if the extra motor merely increased the general performance of the ship in regard to speed and greater load capacity, regardless of maintaining altitude in case one failed.

"Today, three-motored planes must be able to fly on two, and two-motored planes on one. Old ships are not capable of this performance. Accidents Avoidable. "Accidents such as these, regrettable as they are, are avoidable with the new type of transport. Crashes of multi-motored planes today are due in part to lack of this new principle.

"The modern type of ship will not This Reed Suite Qoes on the Sun Porch With a high number of engines, the safety factor and flying range is correspondingly increased, doing away with the danger of losing altitude when a motor fails. In the four-motored planes, the safety tactor is 10.000 to 1 as worked out by engineers, it was stated. This means that a greater flying range for picking a landing site, in the ei ivi WW event of an emergency, is possible.
