COL LORS HAVE QUEER
EFFECTS UPON WEARERS

That the color of the apparel has an al
most immeasurable effect upon the mind
and disposition of thu wearer is a fact
we'll known among psychologists and
nerve specialists. For every woman there
is a certain color in which she feels
comfortable. This is because that partic-
ular tint is becoming to her. brings out
all the best points in her complexion and
coloring, gives her the gratifying feeling
Of being we'll dressed. No matter how
expensive a gown may be. how perfect
its lines or how exquisite it's texture, if
it is of a shade antagonistic to the tenn
perament and the type of the wearer it
is drug in the owners wardrobe.
Equally true is the fact that gown
which is extremely becoming today is
setting for the personality varies with
the moods Of the wearer. When discour-
agement, depression and general feeling
of dullness envelops one in a gray cloud
the tendency is to don black, a gray or a
dull brown gown. Such a choice is a
great mistake, tending to accentuate the
gloom about the wearer. Crush such a

Psychology has shown that red is a di-

there should be at least one red room in
every house. for Invariably it dispels the

of yellow. an ideal color for a bedroom,
and of certain shades of pink. Pale blue

The sketch shows a model that is SIM

at the back. The fiat turnover collar en-
closes tiny tucker of lace and a mar

Some of the dressmakers are making
up the bordered foulards i'm the new
three-hounce fashion. the flounces so ar
ranged as to cover the space of the skirt
entirely-that is. with the first one start

start the fiounces just below the hips

they add little either TO the weight or

the fiounces appear the bodices are

Even the old favorites, the polka dot
foulards, are not forgotten this year, for
one sees them with the spots formed into
all sorts of patterns with and without

One piece is in Indian red, printed
profusely with pin dots of white, some
of them close together others more scat

JOURNEYS INTO
THE LAND OF FASHION

The business of looking at new clothes
is the chief occupation Of women just at
present-that and fitting them on, at
least-and. frankly, there is no occupa-
tion more firing. Still, the old adage
holds good. and lone must suffer to be
beautiful is true today as it was when
1T was first said. Moreover every woman
worth the name likes to look as beautiful
as she can, suffer though she may.
The gowns seen AT "A recent exhibition
of spring clothes were very graceful, with
flowing lines. soft draperies, but no super
flous fullness. Lace plays a very big
part in afternoon and evening gowns, and
taffeta is much used for afternoon
dresses. The taffeta models which no
doubt will prove most popular are sprig-
ged--dear. old-fashioned looking, sprig-
ged taffetas. with frills and little shoulder
capes and garnishings Of fringe. A lovely
crepe de chine model in deep ivory was
charming, and there was a fascinating
vivid blue and white in stripes with tiny
fiounces which recalled old pictures of the
1880 time. A smart tailormade seen at
the same exhibition was in beige. etaminc
over black and beige finely striped cloth
trimmed with big horn buttons.
But best of all were the evening gowns
lovely, stately, trailing things of bro
cade, lace and -chiffon-very simple. but
with such perfect lines. One was in shot

For Little Folks.

The children Of this day are very
generously treated by fashion, for they
share with their elders the fabrics. color:
and designs of the hour. No one re
stricts them to white, with the sole relief
of baby blue and pink, for it has beer
discovered that the little people are quite
as likely to look lovely in the rich tints
such as purple, brown and green.
AS a matter of fact, such colors arc
far more becoming to many tiny girls and
boys than the so-called infantile and
primitive dyes.
Awaiting the very little boys who are
to be exalted to tunic suits when warm
weather comes there are tussore and
linen models Of the prettiest colors and
shapes. The average mother dresses her
small sons in the simplest of raiment and.
leaving for his small sisters linen frocks
floral embroideries, adorns his with the
homely French knots, fagoting and feath-
er stitching, and not very much of that.
Where the tunic folds over at one side
there is a constellation Of the knots set
across the lowest corner and finished by
feather stitching.

1t fell clingingly about the figure. and
had q fichu of the most perfect lace in
the world. Another charming gown was
in pastel blue chiffon with deep hounces
of lace in a delicate cream, and IN the
laces of the corsage a huge pink peony.
There were many other evening dresses
quite as lovely. and all of them had the
long. flowing lines which give height to
the figure There is little doubt that such
things will be worn. although they VIII
not be everybody's wear, as there are still
many women who cling to the tight skirt
and oriental silhouette. cit is all little
bewildering, this question of dress, be-
cause if one happens to meet the woman
who likes to look eastern, and does not
mind being stared at wherever she goes,
one hears that that silhouette, and that
only, is the correct one if one would be
we'll dressed Then, again. If one hap
pens to be talking to another woman she
will deplore in well bred tones that such
modes as those of the east are so much
as looked at and the end of all things is
that we all dress as circumstances force
us to dress. The truth is that women
may dress nowadays pretty much as they
please.

At the SheIterinu Arms.

At the Sheltering Arms Sunday af- ternoon there was evening prayer and an address by Rev. Robert Cochrane of Grace Episcopal church, Yantic. In an impressive way he compared the years of this life to the Christian year of the church, taking for his subject, The Passing of the Years. Each year brings some advance, he said. AS we reach the summit we find a change in ourselves. What things life had given us, life is taking away. What the Christian year brings us it does not take away The passing years may take health and strength, but the Christian Is able to say: "All these years I have tried to serve Him, not one good thing that He could give me has been withheld" The hymns for the day, Awake, My Soul; Jesus, Lover of My Soul; Now the Day Is Over, were given in fine harmony by Miss Engstrom, T. H. Quinley and R. V. Congdon with Mrs. Bolande at the piano.
