NECKWEAR IN LAVISH DISPLAY
Severe TaIIormade. Effects Are Being
Discarded In Favor Of Gen.
eral FluffinesS.

What has become Of the tailored
girl who looked so smart in her man
nish collar and firm, steady fourth
hand? She and all her Tx seem to
have passed out with the advent Of
the frenzy Of fluffiness that has seized
the feminine world. The few who
have survived the pillows Of laces and
miles Of rufles are marked rarities,
and possibly do their own laundering.
However, the generousness Of neck
wear IL gradually decreasing and fan
frills and Partisan jabots are taking
on proportions not only more refined,
but undoubtedly more becoming.
The small girl with a great white
wing securely pinned to her shoulder
would be laughable were she not so
modest and unassuming In manner.
But the new neckwear will soon
rightfully represent her, as well as the
too generously built woman who SHES
at 80 much ostentation.
Stocks with jabots to match are
the fashionable thing in neckwear,
and instead Of the lavishly fiuted va
rieties, the simple, graduated plat is
shown. Hand embroidery and simple
thread laces are the favored trim
mings, and a bit Of color Is occasion
ally introduced by means Of ribbon
and loops.

When the blind woman who plays
the accordion saw a genial looking
man stop to read her placard she
quickened her tune in the expecta-
ton that he was going to give her
some money, but he gave advice in

Said he: Have you read that sign
Of yours lately?"
She said she had not.

two wings, or fms, attached to the
back, over the shoulder blades. where
wings usually sprout. These fms have
a swivel motion and are operated BY
cords attached near their tips and
running down through eyelets in the
suit to anklets. or heel fastenings.
There are springs at the swivelipg
connections OF the fms which keep
those objects normally raised above
the body. but when the swimmer kicks
his feet backward he draws them
down and they act as propeller blades
sending him through the water with
much greater velocity than he could
obtain with his arms and legs alone.
