The W. V. U. military authorities that

wrestling with the matter of permit.

:ango, on the program. and a deci-
sion will be reached shortly.

sleeves and with the help of drapery and frills and we do not combine them with really voluminous skirts. Taf- feta seems some way to belong to cer- tain effects by right of natural selec- ton and it is a pronounced favorite for combination with other materials and for trimming as we'll as for entire costumes. Moire effects, broche effects, all the pretty lowered fabrics are greatly in vogue and Roman stripes are used to enliven quiet tones wherever they can be placed. In addition, we are having marvel ously beautiful cotton fabrics embroid- cred and finished with borders of one sort or another and one of the pret- tiest, most picturesque features or prevailing styles is to be found in the white costumes worn with short, jaunty little coats of silk, gol6ne or similar material in really bright color.
 Undoubtedly it is season of color but that does not necessarily mean color for the entire costume. Bits of brightness against white or a quiet tone often mean costume of the best effect, and the vivid silks, the rich brocades, the wonderful ribbons are all adapted to such use. One of the costumes in the picture shows combination of brown taffeta with bright Roman stripes on a brown background. The second is combined with little coat of cerise with a gown of embroidered white voile. The third shows lowered crepe in combination with plain. They are all in the height of style and they are all typical. for such combinations and such effects make the essential features of summer styles.
