Girls Hunt Up Your Grandmother
Shawl!

Edith M. Weidenfeld, writing in
the fashion department of the Octo-
Der Woman's Home Companion, says:
Fortunate is the woman who in
herited from her grandmother, or her
great-grandmother, handsome lace
shawl, either black or white, for lace
shawls arranged in new ways are
again the vogue. One Of the new
ways of using an old-fashioned lace
shawl is in the sleeveless jackets seen
a great deal in Paris and New York
just now, and though many of them
are made Of silk or satin, those of
lace are decidedly modish. 1t is
caught in at the high waist-line with
a black and white silk cord, and it
fastens in front with tiny black satin
buttons. A lace shawl used like this
would be all the trimming necessary
for plain satin or chiffon gown.
