d q OBSERVATIONS of Peggy D. D

A clergyman In Brooklyn last Sunday
read a h0mily to his flock on behavior,
urging the men and women alike TO be-
have themselves while on their vaca-
lions.
Now. most Of us would doubtless get
very much vexed at receiving such ad-
vice from anyone, and not a few would
assert that such advice TO respectable
people was absolutely unnecessary.
Observation. however; proves that
such is not the case. Whether the good
old summer time goes 10 some peoples
heads or whether II is that they become

Short Skrted Girls
and The Sale Of Shoes

a shoe retailer tells the writer that
women's fashionable short skirts are Of
much help 10 the trade Short skirts
make women very much more watchful
Of their shoes. a woman whO cares
anything at all for her dress has to
look sharply after her footwear. The
shOrt-slxirted girl of a year or two ago
IS not in II at all with the short-skirted
girl OF the present season. The swing
clear skirt no more resembles the dress
Of the tailor-made period. One was all
severity. The other is all grace. One
made a woman angular and awkward
and masculine. The other adds a femi-
nine touch even 10 the hOmeliest figure.
The skirts Of this season. those that
are made on the new art lines, all
swing clear If they touch they are OF
the round length-that is the length
which just touches the floor all the way
round. making the shoes q prominent
feature of the costume. All of which
argues well for the shoe business.

inexpensive Materials That Help Out

With the summer well on its way
many women are still far from being
thoroughly acquainted with the new

It Is an acGuaintanceship that Is stiH
worth our while. for among these same
novelties are many which make up into
delightful and inexpensive little frocks
for helping out the midsummer ward

Not a few Of the incoming silk gauzes
show Dresden designs and coloring
They build well and inexpensively for
summer dance frOcks. trimmed simply
with self material in the form Of tuclIs.
shirrings, applied bands. etc, or with
ribbon. lace and embroidery.
The Brussels nets in Powered designs
lend themselves to frOcks II the same
character and for the same popular use.
The woman who lines such a gown
this year with taffeta is unnecessarily
extravagant, since many OF the best

the purpose. II silk is desired II should
be the soft India or China-nOI taffeta.
