COMBINATION OF
WHITE WITH
BLACK CREPE

A PPARENTLY the combination of
IA white with black crepe has come
to stay. In those shops that special
ize in this branch of apparel one sees
a great deal Of white, crepe used in
millinery. In the winter time 1t ap-
pears in facings or borders, or in
made ornaments. 1t is in facing hats
of black crepe that 1t is best liked.
For summer mourning, white crepe
is used more extensively. All-white
hats, and combinations of black and
white crepe, in which the latter pre-
dominates, gives us new kind of
mourning millinery in which 1t is pos
sible to be comfortable and to look
cool as well. e''f
The method of draping wells varies
with the season. and with ideas that

I'D AQUIN, who delights in surprising
4 us with novel and intricate gowns,
sometimes charms us with the sim
plest of creations which still embody
the stamp of Paquin distinction. One
of the latter is pictured in the Illus
tration here The skirt is of black
charmeuse with little coatee of
black velvet and bodice Of plated
chiffon.
The skirt Is a marvel of clever ad.
justment to the lines Of the figure by
means of shaping and the least posi-.
BILE draping. 1t is made in one with
the corsage which includes the little
coat and bodice effect. A more prac-
tical development Of the toilette would
manage to make the coat separate,
because it could be removed indoors
or worn as a separate coat with other
gowns.
The coat is trimmed with fashion
able skunk fur in a fine silky grade.
This fur varies SO much in quality that
some skins are worth twice as much
and more-than others. 1t is used on
practically every outside garment
which women wear.
This gown should be chosen by
those of plump figure who wish to
wear velvet. Like other pile fabrics
velvet must be carefully managed and

is best made up along plain and Sc
we're lines, like those shown in the
model pictured.
There is not much warmth in an
outside garment which leaves the
chest uncovered, and therefore SINH
lar little coats are shown with wide
revers to turn forward when one la
outdoors and away from the chest in
doors. But the lovely Paquin model,
which we are studying, was not de-
signed so much with reference to its
practical side as to its picturesque
and novel appearance. The clever han
ding of the fastening in front, where
ribbon is wrapped about the fur and
we are left to wonder how the wear
er gets into or out of the gown, is
most attractive.
The standing and full riff of tulle
is wonderful touch in the finishing
of the costume.
In keeping with it, and not taking
the attention at all, the fur trimmed
turban of black velvet with it's little
nosegay of gay flowers is just the hat
for this gown. The ensemble leaves
nothing to be desired-it is simple
enough to please the most quiet taste
and distinctive enough to suit the
most discriminating dresser.

as a veil but as a part of the COM
position of hats for first mourning.
Small face wells of net, with narrow
border of crepe are supplied on the
models that carry the long crepe wells.
All models in mourning millinery are
made up in the fashionable shops In

for one color alone.
The manufacture Of crepe has been
so perfected that it has become prac-
tical for people of moderate means.
The waterproofing processes have
made 1t among the most durable OF
fabrics instead of fragile, as 1t used
to be. We are indebted to the Eng
lish manufacturers for this fine
achievement. Crepe used to be a
luxury which only rich people could
really afford.

Pragmatism.

But while the pragmatic solution
seemed to many a deliverance from
worse evils, and most useful meth
cd of exploring for truth, it was gen.
orally felt to be unsatisfying, rather
tentative than final, writes William
Ernest Hooking in the Yale Review,
Pragmatism taken alone leaves belief
too much to the accidents OF volition
and to main force, too much to the
vote arsd hence exposed to the veto.
It's God can offer support and comfort
to men only on the condition of being
first upheld by them. Just in proper
tion as necessity drops out of moral
truth and option takes its place, the
moral atmosphere is rarefied, and ef-
fort to maintain belief results In swift
er fatigue. Men are willing to respond
to the pragmatic incentive, to be act
i've in the making of truth, wherever
reality is seen to be unfinished and
plastic, but in all such activity there
is needed something to stand upon
something which we neither make nor
have made, something independently
real and certain. There must be
something behind pragmatlsm,

a proper supply of adults, the mothers
must be protected. Thus the logic OF
the more or less paternalistic govern

charts show the mother as the civil

baby is held in higher regard, per

Is curious paradox in France that,
in country where babies are su-

foster-mothers. Next the French be-

found the result highly successful. At
the Conference in London on infant
mortality a most valuable and signifi-
cant discussion dealt with ante-natal
hygiene, The chief cause of infant
mortality, 1t was conclusively shown,
is q defective condition of develop
