lf Gaby can get over here again while the war
is on she will be a great inspiration to our dress
makers. of course Actresses will probably bring
their clothes with them, too if they succeed in
getting here.
II is doubtful if they would help the situation.
What our people need is to be thrown on their

fashions for Americans. Their chief concern

But these things need not annoy our dress

fact that her clothes positively refused to come
