Paris' first real dis play of styles since the vvr.r began is being attended by about 300 Ameri can buvers, who, however, nrp show ... . , 1 . . ing themselves to he more inuepeniieiu of the dictates of French dressmakers .1 1 - iniin ever ncioie. Hiown, in cording to the npvv models, again in marked favor. Soft ma- t rials are used gcncrallv and flounces panniers and tne iiesign ot ine new models tend towr.id the strictly femi nine nppearnncc. There is not the slight est suggestion of the mnsculine, tailor made effects of the past. Paris is clinging to skirts banging sevpn to eight inches from the ground. American buyers, the dressmnkers say, nre ridiculing the shortness of the gowns, nlthough frankly admitting American skirts have been too long. It is said to be likely American women will he offered a compromise in lengths. One of the prominent Amerlcnn buy ers said today that "no well-formed woman looks well In a renlly long skirt, and It cannot be graceful," but he laughed at a drossmnker's suggestion that Americans want long skirts be cause Americau women do not have . n , , I"T-tty ankles. l'. S. Icads Even in Ankles "American women have the prettiest ankles and feet in the world." thebuvcr replied, "and tliev also are the best shod, but they leali.e that the ex tremely short skirts ure ridiculed, and they believe in moderation " Although the Americans designed 'their own styles to a great extent dur ing the vvnr. they apparently are finding much that Is worth while in the Piui-I from a nevvlv Independent point of view. Passpoit difficulties, it was said, kept the number of American buyeis fiom being much larger. The buyeis have been busy all this week viewing the new models, nnd thev will continue to nttend displo.vs next week when some of the most impoitaut firms will show their winter styles. Brow u Popular Color Rrowu seems to be the prevailing color, the buyers suy, and is shown in scores of various shades brick, terra cottn and burnt biscuit.

Ilargest. I5y the terms of the will the state was to become possessed of Clivden, the historic Chew mansion in lirrmnutown, under certain rontingeni ies. Owing to the discovery of another will disclosed through the terms of an attached codicil, the matter has been complicated, ac cording to the lawyers, nnd will hnve to he carefully studied us to what was meant by the testator. "This office has received n copy of the remarkable will and codicil of Sam uel Chew, and will give it careful con sideration," said Deputy Attorney Gen eral Ilargest. "1'pon a superficial examination, the commonwealth does not seem to have much right in this matter. "First, it Mr. Chew's will would be set nsidc on the ground of a lack of testamentnry enpneity, then the estate would unquestionably go to his next of kin. "Second, assuming that the will is valid, the commonwealth would get nothing unless no niembei of his fam ily would buy the estate at the price he fixes.

The Rev. Dr Henry It. Gi.mmpy, Jr., who is a member of the commission, said- "There are so many recommenda tions mnde in the report of the com mission that, of course, we could not be unanimous in nil things. The report represents the opinion of the majority nnd I would be unwilling to discuss any of fhe pioposed changes before they are acted upon by fhe convention "I do not recall who proposed the change in the marriage service, making the promise of the vvouinn the same as the pi utilise of the man I cannot iccall thnt the influence of women was at work "The ihanges in the wording of the psalms nie nil conections nud follow new and acut.ite translations. Some May Object "As in how the changes will be re . eived, I (iiiinot bay. There are, of course, some cleigymen who object to any chnnges, but there are only a few who take that position. "Larger numbeis oppose particular proposal., and wc will not know the sticngth of oppositiou against any change until the convention meets lit Detroit to net. Then the opposition will pieseut itself." Hishop Philip jr. Rhinelnnder and Geoige Wlmrton Pepper, the other two Philadelphia members of the commis sion, are out of the city ou their sum mer vacations. The Rev Richnrd J. Morris said : "I have had no opportunity to study the proposed changes in the Hook of Com mon Prayer. Hut the change in the marriage service making the promise of the woman the snme ns thnt of the man hns been ngitated for the last twenty years or more. It has been pressed as a part of the feminist move ment." Number Always Opposed The Rev A J. Arnold said "I hare not been in a position to follow the action of the commission and do not have alwavs opposed chnnges nnd prob nblv will maintain that attitude." Changes in the Hook of Common Piayer have been under consideration bv the Episcopal Church for six years. The joint commission, consisting of seven bishops seven presbyters and seven laymen wns appointed at the gpiieiul . .invention in 101.1 The com mission made its first report at the gen eial i .invention in St. Louis in 1010.
