Center and Industry, enlisting the in-
terest and aid of the farming COM
munities that would be so greatly
benefited by the building of the road.
Mr.. Brewer suggests that COM

These white dresses over black. and

but sometimes they are ornamented
with fine embroidery. lace or silk braid

AS a further touch, white lingerie
dresses are often trimmed with band
ings of black chiffon embroidered In

Venetian stitch.
The beauty OF these new black and
white costumes lies in the transparency
OF the black. SO that IL seems not so
much a trimming as a shadow. Add to
this the black accessories, gloves. para

have the new half-mournfng lingerie
