Fashion Notes.
Geraniuln red is still listed as a
popular color and some suits OF ger
anium red wool have been seen among
used In velvet evening frocks. That
deed shade of blue called midnight
is another popular color in velvet. in
which it is especially rich and beanti-
full, and sapphire blue is another pop
ular shade of that color. Purple is
used, sometimes combined with cerise
or American beauty red and on a
smart hat not long g a violet ost-
rich feather was used with al Ameri-
can beauty rose.
Ostrich feathers are used in many
and novel ways this autumn. One
is effective Is q band OF ostrich
undertaking the crown of a big vel
vet hat.
Even more than formerly the collar
that is high at the back is in vogue.
Sometimes this height is maintained
by the help of wires and sometimes,
when the collar is made of pique,
starch is used to hold it in place.
Pique neckwear. by the way, seems
to have lost nothing of it's favor. 1t
is admirably suited for use with
serge and other wooden frocks and
suits,
Color is still seen on handkerchiefs.
Sometimes it takes the form of en-
b%roidery. sometimes it is a colored
hem, and sometimes the whole hand
kerchief is coloted. or colored en-
broidered or hemmed with white.
Accordion pleats are much used, and
they are welcome. There is the &C.
Gordon pleated underskirt worn with
the long tunic, and it is surely an i'm
provement, from the wearer's point
of view, over the straight underskirt.
For it permits of easy walking, and
at the same time preserves a straight
effect. Then there is the accordion
pleated cape. Developed in a light,
thin silk this is a delightful cape for
evening IA 1t is put into a yoke
of heavier fabric that fits about the
shoulders, and that is finished with a
wire f1aring collar Of the silk.
For a long time styles have not
been so well suited to young girls as
they are at the present moment.
The scant, slashed skirt really had
no place iii the wardrobe of the young
girl, and neither had many other fea-
lures Of the fashions of the last few
years.

the long tunic. is admirably suited to
slim, youthful angles. The long coat,
belted Vt the hips. is also becoming to
girlhood. The Russian blouse styles.
which can be well evolved at present
for the young girl, are very good. And
the big. flat hat is infinitely more be-
Ginning to the childish face than the
severe albeit smart, small hat Of the
last few years.
Some of the new serve frocks for
school wear are especially interesting
for small girls under IL. They are
made with waist and skirt in one, the
fabric. cut in long lines and made
without a belt. The waist Is cut away
under the arms and forms straps over
the shoulders. and in front and back
is cut, in a U-shaped line. Under this
serge frock. which is frequently bound
with wide black silk braid. is worn a
snlart little linen shirt. with long
sleeves ending in cuffs turned back
and linked with white pearl buttons.
and a rundown collar likewise linked.
The fashionable oat hat buttons
straight across the throat. with a roll
ing collar which, in the case Of a
young girls coat, car be made Of vel
vet, is decidedly suitable for a young
ster. 1t Is warm. comfortable and
