door attractions, such as polo
and the races, occupy the at
n tention of elegant Partisan
mondaines, there is a good
deal indoors of a festive nature, rang
ing from marriage ceremonies and five
o'clocks to small theater parties. But
the smart diversion seems to be the
musical afternoon, and a delightful
musicale was given Friday by the Com
Jesse de Castellane, with Melba as the
chief attraction. There is a young
Roumanian singer, Mile. Maria Serena,
who is making a great success at these
musical soirees. Admirable in voice
and charmingly pretty, this new artist
made her debut at Mrs. Moore's elegant
reception at her salon in the Avenue
du Bots. Nile. Serena on this occasion
looked charming in black crepe de
chine and white chiffon corsage in
crusted in black motifs worn with
large black picture hat.
The dancing, too, of an American girl,
Miss Isadora Duncan. has created quite
a stir in the art world. Miss Duncan is
doing what she calls Beethoven move
ments, a new departure in the terp
sichorean field, which she interprets to
the accompaniment of Beethoven mu-
sic. 1t may be carrying the protest too
far to call this performance a sacrilege,
but it is certain that the young Amer
lean was i'll advised in her choice and
has gone beyond her depth in approach
ing a master such as Beethoven. Still
the immen2 Sales des Fetes in the
Trocadero, hich holds 5000 people,
was filed 1verfiowing with an audi
ence who followed with interest Miss
Duncan's graceful movements. The
programme comprised the adagio of the
Sonata Pathetique,' the Moonlight
and the last three movements of the
Seventh Symphony" The public gen
orally are of the opinion that Miss Dun
can should either dance to music espe-
cially written for her or interpret the
classical movements of Gluck or the
gavottes of Bach.
Bringing these meanderings in the
social and musical world to a practical
sartorial issue. I noticed among the ex-
quisitely gowned women at these af-
fairs how handicapped even these
graceful figures were in walking by the

Belts are conspicuous by their attrac-
tiveness at present The folded black
satin or silk belt we have always with
us, and there are endless variations of
this idea. Long ends knotted several
times make a pretty finish to the back
of a skirt and are very handy to redeem
the appearance of a last years frock.
The bows should reach four or five
inches above the waist and be set up
right on the belt. The ingenious may
devise countless delightful notions for
themselves and their friends Rucked
belts of suede and leather can now be
had from a dollar up, but it is much
wiser to invest in one Of exquisite quail
ity and color. A good everyday belt
bestows a glow of conscious virtue and
well being and. once acquired, lasts for
a long. long time, and no more worry
with wisps of ribbon, clasps. etc. To be
neat at the neck and waist is half the
battle. The military sash belt is a new
device 1t is finished at the side by
large tassels, but only slender figures
should wear it. fooled leather is an
other charming idea for a belt, and
these may be had in a distinct and in
dividuaI style which is very pleasing
to the possessor. Those who work in
leather can produce delightful speci-
mems, and so many women do this
leather work nowadays for pastime.
fooled leather buttons are also charm
ing for coats and outdoor gowns.

For evening wear or for any dressy
occasion the very latest hair ornament
is a true lovers knot in ribbon velvet,
the ribbon following the line Of the
head and ending in two tiny silk tas-
sells just behind the left ear. The eff

looking, is decidedly becoming, and it
is an ornament the smart girl could
very easily make for herself All the
material required will be a yard of rib
bon velvet to either match or contrast
with the gown and two tassels Of the
same color. Instead of the ribbon vel
vet the tassels might be fastened with
tiny paste buckles or any small fancy
ornaments, which can be picked up for
