of springtime emerges from its wintry
clouds, her affections turn to the tur-
quoise, with its rich lights of blue and
green, and as the season advances she
may favor the deeper blue of the lapis

Charming wristlets containing watches

may really be termed quite practicable.
The handbag, too. is essential for the
pocketless woman. and in the Illustration
two very smart styles are pictured. The
lower one is made of an effective black
and-white striped silk, topped with an
eastern medallion of hammered silver on
which are set semi-precious stones. Lons
cords of heavy black silk are attached to
this rather quantity shaped bag, whose
lower end is finished with the inevitable
tassel.
Another handsome style is also shown,

THE picturesque ruff1es that framed
the swan-like neck of a lovely
. ho hat

THE picturesque ruff1es that framed
the swan-like neck of a lovely
queen. the flaring collar that dis
tinguished the dress of a famous
statesman and many another mode of
long ago have proved the motifs for some
of the loveliest neckwear for the new
season. This air of quaintness that char
acterizes so many of the charming frocks
and gowns for spring Is really accentu-
ated by the dainty lace and tulle that
adorn so many of these creations.
Many of the most adorable gowns are
designed to reveal the delicate throat,
and such styles invite very beautiful ar
rangements of fine laces and nets. AS if
to Offset the lowering of the collar in
front, you will frequently find that the
graceful, spreading Medici lends regal
air to certain models.
Handsome laces, filmest chiffons and
tulless gay ribbons and tiny tassels are
united in the making of these interesting
details of dress. Some modes are depict
ed in the illustration.
In much of the smartest neckwear a
guimpe or yoke is part of the decora-
ton, and this with the collar is often

gone conclusion that she will also pos
sess many delightful trifles that are Sc
riously described as accessories of dress.
So in the accompanying picture you will
see illustrations of many of these ct
ceteras.
One of the prettiest modes in the deco
ration of the gown-be it for afternoon
or evening-is the lovely corsage bouquet
So perfectly are many of the flowers re-
produced that they are almost identical
with those that are culled from the bosom
of mother earth. However, lacking life,
they do not droop when the dance is over,
but by judicious care will retain theiI
beauty for many a day.

to give a pleasing touch of color to the
dainty frock
With the suspender dresses tucked
guimpes of fine linen are often worn, and
on the pleated collars and cuffs of such
creations bright spots of color in the
guise of embroidery or even edgings are
ofttimes introduced.
For the more summery dress the dainty
organdy with small flowers that are
strewn across its surface, or ratne. are
equally adorable. On such models pretty
ball fringes make pleasing trimmings.
while belts that match the fiowered pat
terms are often favored.
Plaid trimmings are also much liked,
while the little party frocks boast of
many puffings that are cleverly inter-
preted not only in filmy batistes but also
in the delicate shades Of taffeta-pink and
blue being equally admired On such con-
fections handsome trimmings are often
made from wide bands of lace or pretty
inserts of cobwebby tulle. embroidered
with silk threads.

looping up some dainty ruffie or bordering
some bouffant drapery. while garlands of
flowers are often successfully introduced
in the developing of some charming color
scheme.
AS a certain touch of barbaric grace is
still retained by many a modern woman,
this doubtless accounts for her joy in
adorning herself with chains of brightly
co,ored beads. Topaz and jade have re-

Danger in Sudden
Rise, Says Expert

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Ralph NJ. Eas-

of the National Civic Federation. said
yesterday in speaking CT the Ford plan:
L am glad that AF. Ford has seen fit
to adopt the eight-hour day. There are
good economic as well as humanitarian
reasons for such a step.
1t is generally claimed Lv writer's on
the subject that a sudden and big in
to rob him of ambition ard does not
improve his working capacity, besides
leading him into eXtrayagant methods
of living. This latter principle is
claimed to be true whether a man
doubles his daily wage from $50 to S
pertinent will doubtless be of great
value in settling this proposition. and
] understand that he himself regards
ii is an experiment only.
There is a further and larger ques-
tiOn as to what would he the effect
upon common labor in all lines, govern
mental as well as Industrial. There is
probably not much likelihood that the
decla1ation of the s. minimum wage by
Mr. Pord will unsettle general condi-
tions, although competitors seem very
much alarmed. 1t certainly would be
an unfortunate situation if the S mini
mum wage should be ADOPTED as a
general proposition.
1T is true that there are some classes
Of men and women il ctTtain trades,
and also in the public employ who are
working outrageOusly long hours and
receiving pitifully low wages. This
startling announcement has accentuated
in their minds the need TO- more wages,
and if Mr.. FOrd's plan Will help them to
better conditions we need not worry
about what happens 10 his own people
because he will see them through TO the
finish"
