EVERY day you find great crowds
of people standing around the
north show window of the Whitley
Jewelry company. They are dis
playing n beautiful new stone,
known as the "Carmazul" 1t is on
the crimson matrix order. You see
it in the uncut and unmounted
state. Then again you are bewil-
dered by the unique mountings and
designs of the brooches, scarf pins,
cuff buttons and shirt waist rings
Two women were overheard dis
cussing the beauties and possibili-
ties of this stone. One said: "I
would give anything to know where
they find this stone and who is the
designer of the mountings." The
other woman said: That's easy.
I'll go in and make inquiry"
When she came out she was all ex-
citement-said: what do you
think? Whitley's own the mine
that produces the 'Carmazul,' and
it's located in Mexico. Further
more, right in their manufacturing
part of the store (Which is upstairs)
they build all this jewelry. I'm
surprised, for / never lmew they
were their own designers. Let's go
i'm and leave an order with them
for some Christmas rings and pins"
"All holidays mean much work
for us" said M. Frederickson.
Look at my date book. Engage
ments that are being made for the
day before Thanksgiving. Are the
women taking to the mop style?
Just 'daffy' about it, I never saw
more beautiful hair switches than
those they have in stock. You
would be surprised at the prices
more than reasonable, / think"
There is a popular fashion of pin
ming a rose or any large flower well
down in the center Of an evening
bodice. For tailored gowns the
coats all have a buttonhole in
which the stems are fixed.

Arts and crafts jewelry is much
used with afternoon gowns. The
wrought metal with semi-precious
stones or limitations are to be found
in colors to harmonize with any
color in the costume.
There is a vogue fer garnets.
Rich, sparkling garnet brooches are
much seen in the shops and are
lovely with the wine color gowns
of broadcloth and satin.
The immense old canoes that be-
longed to our mothers and our
grandmothers are being revived for
belt buckles and for hat pins for
the fur toques.
Green is the dominating color of
the hour. The new greens are the
most vivid that fashion has ever
known. Green feathers and wings
will be seen on hats, but green
shoes and gloves are not TO be seen
again.
New stoles are of chiffon edged
with fur to match the muff. This
is the first season that this type of
stole has appeared, and 1t is ex-
pected that it will be very fash
ionable.
Evening slippers will be very
elaborate. Velvet slippers will, II
anything, be more popular than
satin, Delicate embroideries will be
worked on the velvet.
The black lace shoe with pointed
toe and antique silver buckle is one
of the smartest shoes of the season.
The tailored girl thinks the watch
fob more appropriate than chain
hence the craze for fobs.
A new idea for the small bows to
be worn with mannish linen collars
are those which are flat as the ones
worn on pumps.
Velvet will supersede satin this
season for costumes of extremely
dressy character. All velvet cos
tunes will be elaborately trimmed
with braiding.
Blues inclined to peacock are taxi
ing the place of the gray and Co
penhagen blues.
Undoubtedly the winter will see a
tremendous revival of black for
evening wear.
