The newest version of the oriental
mantle is not attached to the evening
gown. but is a separate garment that
can be worn with almost any frock in
tended for indoor use. 1t is made splen-
didly brilliant by deep yoke of bullion
embroidery, either of silver or gold, which
gives it the appearance of FURNISHED
metal across the neck and top of arms.
The embroidery is done in bold Chinese
or Egyptian fashion. with heavy threads
and close crude stitches. The founda-
ton is of tulle, or rather filet which Is
strong enough to withstand this bla zing
mass of metal embroidery, and others
are made of opalescent chiffon. Pos

bullion work on her neck and shoulders,
and she should be quite sure of this be-

1t is often a question of speculation

BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

Every woman is not in need of a gor-
geous evening gown. All women do not
include decollete gowns in their ward
robe. While it is true that the American
nation subscrites more fervently to the
thin low gown after candlelight than any
other nation except the English there are
wide segments of society whose members
do not need anything beyond a very sim
pie affair in the way of an evening gown
by reason of their limited social oppor-
tunity.
No one wears an evening gown in the
other nations of the world except the
members of that special set who by reason
of money, opportunity inclination must
have them. The Anglo-Saxons in mass
have always led the way in dressing for
dinner, and only the poorer classes con-
sidered it unnecessary to make the slight
est change from one meal to another.
In America during its earlier struggles
evening dress was unknown except among
women who belonged to society in its
strict sense, but money has increased
and social opportunities are widespread
since recreation is considered harmless
and necessary for toilerS there has come
about the Anglo-SaXon fashion of wear
ing an evening gowns after Z o clock
among simple folk who make no pretense
of being fashionable. The gown may be
only of white muslin and colored ribbon
with three-inch opening at the neck, or
it may be a costly creation of satin and
rhinestones cut to the waist line at the
back. What manner of gown it is de-
Ponds upon the social attitude of the
wearer, but the custom is no longer looked
upon with derision and is acknowledged
by even those who do not do il an EVIL
dence of good taste and of economy.
1t pays to have separate clothes for the
evening, even if they cost only one-fifth
of the amount spent for the Gay clothes,
which include those for the street.

The Economy of Nantes.

There is a new fashion which was not
designed for the economically inclined,
for Paris does not take such into con-
sideration; but it is fashion neverthe-
less which is joyfully welcomed by those
who must alter a low evening gown or
wear it many times for many occasions.
This is the transparent mantle which
covers the shoulders and half of the
arms.
Possibly Worth invented it or paved
the way for it with his wing sleeves that
he brought into fashion at the autumn
openings for foreign dressmakers. Those
wing sleeves were well received and
rapidly spread themselves across the back
and became nantes. They were aided
in this work by the growing influence of
the orient on every fashion that the occi-
dental woman Wore Cabot brought them
out in her wonderful cobweb lace, which
is somewhat of an imitation of old chan
tilly, but now goes under her name
Premet, who Is frankly initiating the
orient, especially the Japanese, uses in
all her creations the mantle as Won
derful way to combine color and drapery
And most of the French gowns of today
show this voluminous and enveloping
shoulder drapery in all kinds of fabrics
that are transparent.

cellent way in which to make this man.

HETCH HETCHY
I. MEASURE SIGNED
President Declares Usefulness
of Public Domain Will Not
Be Impaired.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-President
Wilson today signed the Hetch
Hetchy bill granting public water
supply to San Francisco. He accom-
panied his signature with a statement
declaring that he believed the pub
lie needs of the region concerned
were served by the bill without I'M
pairing the usefulness of the public
domain.
The Presidents statement follows:
'I have signed this bill because 1t
seemed to serve the pressing public
needs of the region concerned better
than they could be served In any
other way and yet did not impair
the usefulness or materially detract
from The beauty of the public do
MAN."
"gThe bill was opposed by so many
public spirited men, thoughtful of the
interests of the people and of fine
conscience in every matter of public
concern, that l have naturally sought
to scrutinize it very closely. l take
the liberty of thinking that their fears
and objections were not well founded.
I believe the bill to be on the whole
in the public interest, and I am the
less uncertain in that judgment be-
cause I find 1t concurred in by men
whose best energies have been to-
wards conservation and the safe
guarding of the peoples interests and
many of whom have besides had a
long experience in the public service
which has made them circumspect in
forming an opinion upon such mat
ters."
The Presidents signature ends San
Fpancisco's long fight for city water
supply site in the valley of the Tuol,
omne river in the northwestern pari
! of the Yosemite National Park. Sar
Francisco already owns large
amount of land in the Hetch Hetchs
Valley, and under the new law may
erect a huge dam, flooding govern
ment land, may construct conduits
! and buildings and construct PLAN
