The Newest
Novelties

Shirt waists Of Georgette crepe,
embroidered with beads and silk of
contrasting colors. The waists of this
material wash we'll and are very dainty
and serviceable.
Underwear of shell silk batiste is cool
looking and fresh and can be had at
very reasonable prices.
Gowns made of silk and chiffons are
charming and can be used for both
formal and informal affairs.
There is again tendency toward
the use Of separate coats. They are
fashioned in such a way that the same
coat may be utilized for street or even
ing wear. Velour is very popular ma
terial for the making Of these coats.
Light colored shoes seem more in
favor than, ever, and will be worn with
tailored suits as we'll as with light
dresses.
Ribbons reign supreme for trim
mings. The colors and qualities are
limitless. A very new one is the fibre
ribbon which comes in all colors.
Beautiful stocks and jabos, some of
lawn, batiste, organdy, others more
elaborate of fine laces and nets with
ldnQ embroidery.
Quite few waists are opened in the
back and have high standing collars.
Wool jersey suits OF bright colors
are the thing for women who lead
an out of door life. They are light
of weight, have warmth and are an
all-round suit. Silk suits are favorites
for afternoon wear.
Bathing suits of taffeta and satin
are more varied in color and design
than ever before. At the same time
they are stunning.
Two-piece linen suits are noteworthy
in the many subtle shade variations.
Voiles are shown in two-toned stripe
effects, the darker shade being
velour or pile weave. Some presenta-
tons have white grounds with varied
colored velour stripes. Poplins seem
to be one of the prime favorites, having
beautiful printed flower designs from
the modest violet to the grand old
chrysanthemum.
Plated skirts and jackets are good
style. An evening wrap Of charmeuse.
trimmed with marabou is attractive.
A neck piece of maline, shirred over
taffeta and completed with velvet
bow of sonic contrasting color is ex-
ceedingly smart,
In Baskst conception of coloring
come beautiful combs for evening
wear.
A single rose corsage of taffeta shows
the Chinese fiat flower influence.
Pompadour silks with touches of
gold and silver threads outlining their
designs.
In direct contradiction to each other
comes the street coats, some buttoning
from the collar to hem and others but
tonless and fastening merely with a
strap-like belt. Leather strapped ham
died umbrellas are attractive and not
to be passed, as the strap can be slid
over the arm, making the umbrella
a convenience to carry instead of
burden. .t
Purple hats. in fact, whole outfits
of this color, are charming for the
brunette.
Tiny black satin wrist bags of quaint
design like our grandmothcrs carried.

Misses Dress and How to Make 1t

Cut along the outside edges Of the
pattern and mark all the perforations
and notches, then mark the basting
line or row of tiny perforations
nearest the edges for these represent
your sewing line and when you keep
a perfect sewing line you keep
perfect shape and therefore the smart
ness Of your garment. Garry the
markings through to the underside
with tailor's tacks, then begin with
the under blouse or lining.
Put the pieces together as the EN-
velope directs and use the French
seams, that is, take up the seams first
on the right side making as narrow a
stitching as possible, then turn and
take the second time on the wrong
side, sewing this time on the line
of perforations indicating the seam.
In the case of the darts, bring the lines
of perforations together and basic on
the perforations. Make seam three
eighths of an inch beyond the perfora-
lions at the lower edge, and continue
them within to the second line of per-
forations, then slope it up to meet the
folded edge. Cut away one-eighth of
an inch beyond the sewing then turn
and stitch the second time closely
and neatly, on the perforations and
this time on the wrong side. Make
a hem on the right back edge as the
envelope directs For the undertaking,
cut a straight strip Of the material
exactly as long as the back and one
and one-half inches in width. Join
one long edge to the back of the blouse
bringing the right sides together and
seam on the left side. Turn over on
the seam and turn the remaining edge
of the undertaking under just enough
to bring the folded edge little within
the line of perforations and hem it
into place. When the hem is Tapped
over to the perforations the facing
will not be seen. After the sleeve
edges are joined, gather. In the pic
ture, the cuffs have been omitted
and only straight bands used with the
frills attached and for thin material
this is the better finish. If you desire
the cuffs, you will find the directions
on the envelope. To make as in the
illustration, join the ends OF the bands
with the double seams, then join the
bands to the sleeves with the seams
on the right side. Join the ends Of
the frills with the double seams and
finish the outer edges with tiny hand
sewed hens, then join them to the
lower edges of the cuffs, with the
seams on the right side. Now to
make a pretty finish, cut bias strips
of white taffeta three-quarters of an
inch in width. Fold the edges under
to exactly meet at the center and it
will give band three-eighths of an
inch in width when met. We meet the
edges in order to make the bands Of
double thickness for their entire width.
Arrange one of these bands over each
seam and stitch carefully into place,
along both edges. Sew snap fasten-
ings on the back of the blouse for
closing. To finish the neck edge
undertake with strip of bias crepe which
you have cut one inch in width As
the next step make the skirt.
Gather the founce and join to the
side portions as directed, finishing the
seams neatly on the under side then

Embroidered
Wrist Bags

The wrist bag is a necessary acquisition to
every wardrobe, but it seems difficult tor one
to find just the thing that is appropriate tor
all uses. 1t is not an article of wear we care to
have an unlimited number Of, therefore we must
give quite a little thought to its selection. The
bag pictured here is very smart and up to date,
and one that will meet every requirement: The
design can be carried out with elaboration Q,
made simply. The newest materials being used
at the present time for these articles are heavy
taffetas and gros de Londres silk. The latter
perhaps the. better choice, being heavier and
longer wearing. The embroidery pattern carried
out in beads makes a most effective end dressy
bag.
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1916-03-30

the skirt, which are joined one to the
other, and the little over-bodice that
is finished separately. Put together
they make very dressy and attractive
toilette but each one taken by itself
>gives quite different effect and if
you will consider the garment in Sec
tons, 50 to speak, you will realize its
simplicity. In the picture, the ma
terial is lowered taffeta with the
drapery and under-bodice of Geor-
gette crepe and the trimming of taffeta
in white taffeta and both these ma
terials are to be found in forty-four
inch width.
The diagram on the pattern envelope
shows the pattern laid out on material
of that width. If you are using
combination Of materials, it will be
necessary only to lay the drapery and
the lining or under bodice on the
crepe but to follow the methods shown
on the diagram. The pattern gives the
seams and the basting line so that
you have no thinking to do and have
only to follow the directions.
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1916-03-30

prepare the drapery. The lower edge
must be finished. II it is convenient,
it will be we'll to have it hemstitched
by machine and to cut through to
get the picot that is so pretty on the
Georgette crepe. If this is not feasible,
you can finish with little bias bands
of the taffeta that will match the
cuffs and to do this turn the seam
upon the right side, then cut peplum
bias strips as you have done for
sleeves and haste over the edge.
All th.se bands can be stitched along
the edges by machine but it is prettier
to blind stitch them, that is to take
the stitches from the under side with
out catching them through to the
right side, so that there is no sewing
visible. Next, prepare the drapery
as directed on the envelope and
arrange over the side portions basting
the upper edges and the sides care
fully into place. Turn the edges of
front and of back under as directed
and arrange over the side portions
and haste into place. Sew the seams
under the plaits. To finish the placket,
underface the right side with straight
strip Of material and cut strip of the
same length and twice the width for
the back edge. Sew one long edge
to the edge of the back and fold at
the center and fell the other edge
over the seam, then you will have an
extension over which the front edge
can be Tapped to make neat closing
Now gather both front and back and
join to your under-blouse or lining
and take care that the joining is made
exactly as directed on the envelope
but you must finish the left side of the
skirt free from the center front and
to do this it will be best to Join to
narrow band. To finish the edge of
the lining, which is left free, make
little hem with the seam allowance.
For the over-bodice, first finish the
shoulder edges of the back, turn the
seam under on the tiny perforations
and haste into place, then cut bias
strips of taffeta three-quarters of an
inch in width and fold at the center.
Lay one under each shoulder and
allow the folded edge to extend one
eighth of an inch beyond the edge of
the bodice. Miter neatly at the points
and haste, then turn and blind stitch
into place. Gather the fronts. Lap
the right back over the front to meet
the tiny perforations that indicate
the seam, and haste into place. Sew
neatly and strongly to the inturncd
edges of the back but do not bring
any stitches through to the right
side. The left side must be finished
for the closing, therefore, bind it with
silk seam binding which is thin and
inconspicuous. Sew tiny double
snap fastenings into these edges for
the closing. Join the under arm
edges at the right side with double
seam and finish the left side by I'M
derfacing the front edge and finishing
the back with an extension lap, as
already directed for the skirt. Finish
the arm-hole edges with bias pipings
of the silk, then gather at the lower
edge. Finish the side edges of the
center trimming portions and all the
edges of the side portions with bias
piping.

Berlin, Nov. 1T is impossible
TO secure from any one in author
lty the slightest hint that the
German government favors either

ment has not only preserved
strict aloofness, but actually has
no preference.

Paris, Nov. 1.-The recent de-
clarations of President Wilson re-
gardlng the causes of the war
which were severely criticised
at the time, still find an echo IN
the editorials, coupled with "too
proud to fight" a phrase which
doubtless has not enhanced his
popularity here.

the few papers to utter outspoken
comment, remarks.
The Yankees have but little
