There is also a gradual swing to- ward the West in the matter of, cloth- ing: .,Stm.ple uniforms are the rule in, the 'schools, the boys wearing blue or geay suits and the girls pleated blue skirts and middy blouses. There is a growing tendency among young wo- men to wear Western 'clothes, instead of kimonos, after leaving school. Ev- en during the :three or four years which I have spent in Tokyo there is a visible advance in the smartnees and dash with which atese .foreign - style. frocks and dresses are worn. At first Japanese women showed lit- tle taste in the selection and design- ing of foreign dresses. Assiduous study of foreign fashion magazines (Vogue is said to be the moat.pppular foreign publication in Japan) is, how- ever, bringing about a gradual change in this situation. Kimono Styles Changing At the same time some changes are appearing in the color and design of the kimono whioh remains the dress of the majority of Japanese women. The traditional kimono is a blend of five or six softened colors, with a large painted or printed design in the shape of a river, mountain, flower, plant or geometrical figure. The whole effect is that of a color symphony in a minor, key. The younger generation is inclined to prefer fever and stronger sihadee and ,smaller designs. A Japanese lady of my acquaintance who is on the conservative side in this sartorial dis- pute l'ecently said. to me: - "The younger generation of today hpTJao"panese sense for color fiatnseshIsstantjdhe priety. It is not only the younger people, and barley. Ruud eeds of fields of these were very heavily attacked in the above mentioned*countles. Where - ever the poisoned bran bait was ap- plied in time and properly distributed it gave remarkably good resulte„ a single application saving the crop. Whenever it was not applied or ap- plied too late, the crop west either ruined or severely damaged. The fur- row method combined with poisoned bran also was a decided success in preventing the worms from marching from an infested field or fields into pon-infested crops, especially corn. Fortunately in even the worst areas,, there were usually many fields that either bad no worms or very few and this fact prevented the loss from be- ing so great as it otherwise would have been. White grubs in some localities central Ontario are abundant in san- dy soilor soils of an open texture, and are attacking especially potato tubers. Grasshoppers have caused some damage, chiefly in the Counties of Carleton, and Preecott. Poison for baitin'g was sent to these, with the re- sult that little further damage is like -- 1y to take place. Wheat stem maggots have been numerous in a number of barley and wheat fields as shown by the beads turning while prematurely with -out any kernels developing. This' insect seldom does a great deal of damage. A wheat stem sawfiy, probably the same,one as bccurs in the wheat areas of our West, has been' found in wheat fields in Prince Edward Hastings and York Counties. This Is apparently a new insect for Ontario, and whether it will prove to be a serious pest re- mains to be seen. It is too early yet to report on the European corn borer, but the indica- tions are that there will be consider- able damage in Essex and Kent. The variegated cutworm was found in many fields when examining for army worm. It is not. numerous en- ough to cause any appreciable dam- age. Writ Issued Against Hensall Doctor A supreme court writ has been is- sued in London by Dr. John G. Ross, who is sueing Dr. Alexander Moir, of Hensall, for damages as the result of an accident which occurred on No. 4 Highway, a mile and a quarter south of Heneall on August 23rd. Dr. Moir's hired man figured in the accident while driving a wagon without a light for which a fine has already been paid.

The church was beau- tifully redecorated for the occasion and large congregations were present, the church being filled for both morn- ing and evening services. James St. United Church withdrew their ser- vice in time morning and Main Street United and Caven Presbyterian in the evening. A beautiful spray of flow- ers adorned the pulpit rostrum, a number of them being placed there in memory of former members. The Rector, Rev. M. A. Hunt, was in charge of the services and Rev. J. A. Wareing, of Byron, was the special speaker in the morning and Rt. Rev. Charles Seager, Bishop of Huron, in the evening. Miss K.

At the morning service Mr. Middlemiss sang "Open the Gates" and in the evening "How Lovely are Thy Dwellings." Mrs. Lloyd Lindenfield took solo parts in the anthem. -Exeter TimesAdvocate. • Insect Pests OUR home or other brilaings on your property, whether on a farm or in town, may be improved or added to under the Government's Home inrprove- ment Plan. - The terms are easy and paymentsmay be conveniently arrcuigecL You do not need to be- a regular customer to secure a loan.

It has long been an unwritten law that Japanese women, beginning at 40, should wear only very dark and subdued colors in. their Kimono Not Adaptable To Active Modern Youth Hollywpod bas proved a greater re- volutionary than Marx in Japan. While the influence of Socialism, Commute isen, and other "isms" which are re- garded as "dangerous thoughts" by the all-powerful police of the Island Empire is limited to a small class c.f htinted and proscribed persons, the whole ideal of feminine beauty in Ja- pan has been changing under the in- fluence of the popular American mov- ies. And with this ohange have gone important modifieations of styles, modes and living habits. Ten years ago a Japanese lady was admired if she. possessed the follow- ing physical attributes: A roiled face, flat nose, large mouth, covered with the traditional white chalk paint, long, thick, straight black hair and an im- mobile, expresSionless cast of count- enance, suggestive of the large dolls which appear, gaily bedecked at the annual Girls' Festival. Now doll -like features are no longer prized among the younger generation. The face is supposed a have expression and col- or; and lipstick and rouge are freely employed to cultivate the latter ef- fect. The eyebrows are plucked and made to follow a definite contour. Cheerful and Challenging A smile., is favored; both the eyes and the mouth are supposed to be cheerful and, challenging. There is also a cult of the lithe, supple, well. bala.need body which is having a marked influence on the appear- ance of. Japanese girls and young women. Setting -up exercises are qow the rule: they are often done/ in neighborhood groups under the direc- tion of an instructor to an accompani- ment of brisk mimic over the radio. The Peeresses School, where daugh- ters of the nobility are educated, has one of the best sports departments of princes and barons play basketball with as much enthusiasm and aban- don as any American high school team would show.
