Colored batiste gowns are far more un-
common than all white, yet they possess a
charm that is not found in even the most
beautiful of the snowy summer creations.
At an outdoor gathering, a garden party or
any of the delightful social entertainments
with which smart women while away the
warm days, the few bits of color scattered
here and there among a large assemblage
are really the gowns that stand out in one S
memory.
Though all women wear white occasion
ally. some of them do it merely because
fashion demands it, all the while believing
that there is a lack of character in color
less effect.
For such women as these, and for her who
wants to give a smart variety to her sum-
mer wardrobe, the sketch below is offered
as a suggestion for a pale blue-a genuinely

ture of summer loneliness, it is nevertheless

White shoes will, in all probability, be
worn with summer dresses again this year,
but on the other side they have combined
black velvet. suede and satin slippers with
light-colored evening gowns, SO there may
be a change to chronicle later on with re-
gard to summer footwear. However the
white are daintier and prettier than any
other shoes, and are certainly far more sat

1t is expected that labor temples will be

lions of the country during the ensuing
year. The committee of the Washington
Central Labor Union charged with the duty
of providing ways and means for the cree
ton of such a building here have held two

couraging. The latest city to arrange for
the putting up of a temple for the use of
labor bodies exclusively is Seattle, WASH

teachers under charter from the Wisconsin

organization is apt to be crushed because
of it's alleged political menace. 1t Is claimed
by the school board of Chicago that the
teachers are using their organization espe-
whether the proposed law is of benefit to
the schools at large. Each member seems
to be seeking to use the union as an in
