Is Real. Not Assumed Sights TO
lie Seen In These Days on Firth
Avenue Lifted skirt Trick.
Fifth avenue seems more like a Paris
boulevard this fall than ever before
A New York man made this remark to a
woman the other day a. they were walking
down amid the early afternoon crowd.
You know why. don't your she re-
piled.
why, the women OF course said he.
1T certainly isn't tho men. They don't
suggest the Frenchman the least particle.
All that obvious shining up OF the boule-
warbler, all that dainty immaoulateness
which those fellow get on-none OF our
men copies that"
NO. the New York man. especially a.
you see him swinging along on this avenue,
big, wholesome, with a strong, out-of-door
face. is a type Of man all by himself No
foreign capital even gives a hint Of him.
the woman was saying. And our women
are Just an little like tho foreign women
in the real essentials.
-See the free way In which they walk-
perfect liberty OF their c~arriage-while
the Partisan woman toddles along as sttn
as II she were on pegs.

the world walk so superbly as our best
New Workers You admit that, don't your
yet I think IL Is the way you hold your
selves when you walk In the street this fall
that suggests Paris to me"
"Oh no. IL Is not; it's rather the way We
hold our skirts when we walk. Don't
fancy I don't know what you mean.
over there the Paris woman holds .
corner Of her outer skirt half way TO her
knees, and underneath, you see cascades
Of the most wonderful lingerie that - II
she is shapely enough TO dare. RATS
what you remember.
And YOU see our New York women
here on the avenue holding their skiSts
up in a new way, and wearing dainty litCis
ties with high heels. and showing a gleam
of one ankle-very discreetly. II does
look Partisan, and it's a very fascinating
sight TO catch these shy little display
two or three TO a block-whenevec ysu
are out.
you want to know now It Is done, so
that the effect is just the same with all Se
women?
We'll, first, there is the way the skirts
are made, which Is new. Instead OF any
body wearing a lined skirt, everybody
now wears underneath the skirt OF the gown
a drop skirt OF silk. This drop skirt gen.
orally has three f%ounces. acc~ordeon-plaited
and Of chiffon.
ION the bottom Of each founce is a chiffon
ruching to make IL stand out still more.
Then, to get the best effect OF all this
fare out and 10 show the dream OF a drop
skirt, we have TO hold up a corner in the
Paris fashion. To do that just right and
not a quarter Of an inch too much is a
woman's triumph.
"If the lifting was an inch indiscreet
she would zee women staring at. her instead
of giving her a glance of approval.
THE way wedo il is, of course. before the
long mirror before we go out. With my
left hand | catch the outer skirt, lift IL a
couple Of inches. then | grab through az
the drop skirt and carry that up tH-uu
what do I do il | have to let go' Well.
I try not 20 let go. But IL ] do, ! have my
instinct, and there arc the deep plate win
dovs that are every woman's mirror.
And II | can't get a glance in at one OF
those / know Just how much OF my shoe
ought to show as look ~down-that meas
ures the height Of the lift. With me-see
looking straight down all can see OF
my left foot is up TO the buckle.
%Then the stockings. too, are part oi the
effect which you remember from Paris
Invariably open-work Only here in New
York you don't see a correctly dressed
woman wearing any but a black stocking.
Besides. we don't wear shoes Of the big
walking last any more except in the coun-
try: the little shoe with the high heel ts
essential 10 the pretty effect. IL isn't every
woman who can venture to do this, she
who can't-well. she doesn't have 20 study
10 hard how 10 hold her skirts.

parisienne knows how TO nash 80 dexter
