Sions OF this sleeve occurs in charming
model for which Francis is responsible.
One is inclined to think Of this maker in
connection with things tailored, but the
house has turned out some remarkably
pretty models OF a less severe type this
season, and the black and white striped
mArquisette which is pictured in the large
sketch is a happy example of the makers
success on less conventional lines.
The material is so plated that in the
uppermost portion OF the skirt on the
shoulders and at the bottom of the wide,
open sleeve the black stripes are very
close together showing only the merest line
Of white while elsewhere the material
spreads out to show the white predominant
ing. A heavy, handsome open crochet
trimming Of white is used In bands and
the front Of the bodice and bottom Of the
front skirt panel are Of white lace
White and black schemes are numerous
among the best models but are often re-
lisved by striking notes OF color. One Of
Jeanne Halle's frocks, for example, which
has been mach admired has a skirt and
bodice Of sheer black and white stripe and
over the bodice bolero Of rose--or perhaps
one might call II a soft and subdued cerise
chiffon whose collar and cuffs are Of an
exquisitely harmonizing green. It may
sound gRrish but 1t is far from looking so,
and the bolero widely open in front is a
mere trifle which gives character to the
frock.
There is a sketch of this Halle model in

GERMANS CUT YANKEE GRAIN
This Year-Hioh Prices Are
Not Felt.

Berlin.-A great reduction In the
importation Of American grain into
Germany Is predicted by members OF
the Berlin grain exchange. who de
clare that this year the German con.
sumner Is practically Independent OF
the United States as a source of sup.
ply.
Noting the fact that the recent
sharp advances In the American mar.
ket failed to produce any material ef.
feet on the Berlin exchange, the
bourse expert Of the Tageblatt says
that the reason may be found In the
exceptional conditions which enable
Germany to rely almost entirely upon
other countries. While American
wheat has gone up In consequence Of
the general rise In all commodities,
the Russian crops are expected to be
large enough to cover the entire Ger.
man demand at lower prices. Hence.
adds the writer. the Berlin exchanges
are responding more readily to price
conditions In Russia than to the duo.
