Rainbow Sport Clothes Are Hit at St. Moritz Fleecy Woolen Sportwear Re sembling Furs Popular for Skating—Designed by Parisian Genius. By Universal Service. Paris, Jan. 7.—“Kainbow fashions" are due to hit Lake Placid resorts from St. Moritz. Switzerland, soon with all the velocity of an avalanche. Positively the greatest and most changeful advance in women’s sport wear for winter since skiing became fashionable is the rainbow fashion which resulted from the inspiration of Mme. Lambert, a Parisian genius, who jumped into fame early in the winter by the invention of fleecy woolen clothes designed to resemble furs. The rainbow costume is not vari colored but consists of snow boots, tall leggings which come up four inches above the knee, short knickers fastened to gaiters, and a tiny, fluffy, outstanding skirt resembling that of a ballet girl and which is so short that it reveals the tops of the gaiters. Finally there is a thick sweater sur mounted by a close-fitting bonnet. But the amazing feature of this dress is that it is all one color—either a vtvid crimson, a glaring green, a riotous orange or a stormy blue— from boots and sash to the cap. Thus, the rainbow effect is pro duced by a group of skiists, who, at tired in these outfits, provide a magnificent panamoia of color again.-t the background of blinding snow. St. Moritz, where there are quite a number of Americans enjoying the winter sports, has gone mad over the new style. The Mrs. Hudreaus, who liefure they married the Paris detective and hi.s son were the widow and daugh ter of Emperor Jacques Lebaudy, in heriting his enormous sugar fortune, with their husbands are among the leading gamblers at Cannes, where the smartest society lias begun to gather •lust now they are among the lucky players, hut millions of the dollars of the late “emperor of the Sahara" have crossed the green tabels as a result of their enormous bets.

Columbus, Neb., Jan. 7.—Columbus bakers assert a statewide effort is soon to be launched demanding the return of the right of the retail bak ers to sell spilt loavts of bread. A short time ago the food commission declared the split loaf illegal since the state law requires every loaf sold, regardless of the price, to weigh one pound. The split loaf weighs one and one half pounds and under the rul ing of the state authorities is Illegal because the next sized loaf should weigh two pounds Regardless of the price it sells at. Bakers declare that more than 40 per cent of the housewives, if they can't huy the split loaf bake their own bread since the 15-cent split loaf is just enough for one day's use of I he average family while the single loaf of one pound is too little ami the two-*ound loaf is too much. The principal cause for complaint came when split loaves, sold at whole sale to saml hill towns by Grand Is land bakers, were broken In two and sold at the one loaf price. The decrease in business as well a< the easier way. for the bakers, in making the -split loaves. Columbus wholesale and retail bakers say, has resulted In complaint throughout Ne braska and efforts are heing made to revise the rulings of the state.
