In the field Of pure scholarship very
few women have taken rank with the
ablest Of men. But Mary Bateson, who
was born forty-nine years ago today,
conclusively proved that a woman's mind
can grspple with the hardest problems
and most tedious work of scholarship.
And although she lived TO be only forty
two years OF age. her name will always
be remembered among the most able Of
historians
she was the daughter Of the master Of
st. Johns College, in the University OF
Cambridge. England. and spent almost
all her life in the academic atmosphere
Of that great university. Her father and
mother had been instrumental in the
opening Of Newman College, the wom-
ans department Of Cambridge University,
and their daughter entered this institu-
ton at the age of nineteen. She was
graduated with many honors and at once
took post as an instructor in the COL
lege- Her chosen subject was that of
history, and though her researches led
her deep into abstruse study, she was.
nevertheless. exceedingly popular with the
young women whom she instructed.
After the death Of her parents she lived
alone, save for her servants, in her home
In Oxford, and there, surrounded by ner
books, she entertained many OF the most
noted scholars of the great university.
But Miss Bateson's original ambition
was not to devote herself to academic
scholarship. She was early interested in
the suffrage movement in England, and,
being a woman Of ready eloquence and
commanding personality, she felt at first

The Field of Fashion in Review

Fashion has developed a fondness for
mingling and intermingling fabrics. and
some Of the very latest costumes show a
combination Of three or more materials.
For instance, a stunning street costume is
developed Of black faille. dark blue serge.
braided chiffon and fur cloth. The frock
Is Of the jumper variety. with guimpe Of
blue chiffon braided with soutache Of the
same tone. The long tunic Of serge is
bordered with a four-inch band of mole
skin fur cloth. This material is also used
for the collar and cuffs. From black
charmeuse, tulle, velvet and lace is fash
Toned charming afternoon frock. The
foundation is Of the charmeuse and black
tulle for the overdress. Bands Of black
velvet border the long tunic and trim the
bodice. and from finest cream shadow lace
are made the chemisette and outstanding
collar. The one note Of color introduced
on this frock is a crimson rose tucked in
at the top Of the high girdle.
In fact. the all-black frock, with an
artistic dash Of vivid color. promises to
become a reigning favorite this winter.
Roses Of dark red velvet, peoples Of silk
and clusters Of small flowers formed of
beads are used for this purpose Some
times, bE way OF variety, a single rose
appears on the right side OF the high col
lar against the ear.
Cheviot in checked designs is used for
smart tailored suits, and brick red and
white IL a favorIte combination. This was
selected for q costume with a short, full
coat, which hangs gracefully over the
long box-pleated tunlc Of the skirt. Dull
gold buttons trim the skirt and jacket.
The Russian influence is strongly en-
phasized in a suit Of duIl-bfue velour
trimmed with bands Of caracul cloth. The
long coat Is side-pleated across the front
and back; and a broad belt OF the mate
rial, clasped with a rectangular buckle Of
black enamel, defines the low waist line.
Among the separate blouses, which
will accompany the fall coat suit, are
basque models Of white satin. crepe de
chine or taffeta and all-black models OF
the same materials. They are decidedly
Of the moyen-age, and are fastened with
bullet buttons OF porcelain, enamel or
