Attention Because They Are New

crsply from the collar top just under

associated with frills OF some kind.
A touch of black usually appears at
the head of the frill as II does in prac-
tically all the models: and in the coll
lar and front frill illustrated in the
sketch, the little cravat emerges clev-
erly from embroidered Sits in the
collar between the points, the two
narrow ends dropping to a point
slightly below the base of the collar
and knottlng carelessly there.
Where the collar fronts do not meet,
leaving the front Of the throat bare,
little black ribbons often run through
embroidered eyelcts at each side OF the
collar and tie in small bow in

TT gastronomy counts for anything
in this war France ought to win.
i Everywhere In France good
foods and good cookery prevail.

The main trouble with the Ameri-
cans dietary is that it is too narrow,
too monotonous. on all sides it is
hemmed in by restrictions arising
from customs, prejudices and uncul-

Frenchman's. The variety Of his
foods is remarkable. And ,he French
womans superiority in cookery is due
largely TO the fact of her being able
to Gull from wonderfully diversified

In times of peace every part OF
France is called on TO contribute its
