The great test OF a mans con

Can he always let il alone when

with most men there is a time

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN AND THE HOME El
Fashions for Americans

The sketch illustrates three smart
designs in early fall neckwear. The
shops are not generally featuring
very much next seasons neckwear
as yet, their efforts being to effect
clearance of summer stock through
special sales, etc. but either one
Of the collars shown could be made
at home, Organdy is the first choice
in fabrics for washable neckwear.
For the sailor or sport collar
white organdy Is used with a border
or striped or polka dotted organdy
in any preferred color. Flat, open
collars will dominate the early part
OF the season, and few eccentric
shapes are noted.
High back collars cut low in front
similar 10 the two-fold model shown
In the sketch, will also be regarded
tavorably. and these are usually in
all white. the edges OF the collar fin
ished with fine hand embroidery or
hemstitching. A collar OF this type
is very smart when worn over a
dark street dress or serge, gabar-
dine. satin etc.
Some vestee effects will also be
featured in the fall. for wear under
suit coats and with tailored dresses.
The arrival OF cooler weather will
encourage a demand for high closed
styles in neckwear, and one very
dainty and becoming model OF this
type is also shown in the sketch.
A fine organdy is used for its fash
ioning, and II is fitted to the neck
by an arrangement OF small fiat
pleats. The edge OF the collar may
be finished with embroidery, hem
stitching, or fagoting.
While organdy is undoubtedly first
choice In neckwear fabrics, good
deal OF net will also be used.
White and pastel shades will be
equally we'll regarded from a style
point Of view, and many touches of
black are noted In fall and winter
neckwear models. Narrow black
velvet ribbon, small black buttons,
and embroidery done In black are
employed as decorative touches.
The demand for smart and becom-
ing neckwear is usually very strong
in the early fall. Between-season
frocks may be frightened up most
attractively by the use OF individual
and dainty neckwear, and the clever
woman will use some Of her summer
leisure in preparing for this need.
The fichu type Of neck dressing
will continue favorite through the

At last Florence Gale and VIII
Temple have married Her college
friends are wondering IL she will be
really happy, but Wits friends tell
her she would have missed the OPP
portunity OF her lifetime had she
finally refused 10 marry VIII.
When Florence and Will finished
high school, where they had been
close friends, both knew that some
thing else just then came ahead Of
love affairs. VIII had his mother
10 support Duty to her put aside
ambition for higher education or
thought OF marriage. and he went
from school TO a position in his
uncle's bank. Florence was eager
for college and she hoped till the
last that VIII could go too. Her
parents, well to do, did not care If
she went or drifted into the ordi-
nary female fate with marriage at
the end But the restlessness with.
in her demanded higher education,
so with many regretful farewells to
VIII she went away.
The end of her first year she came
home 10 find Will working man.

gave the first hint that he wished
an engagement. But Florence said
wait another year. She wanted time
to consider. Secretly she was be-
ginning TO see the difference four
years at college would make be
tween them.
In the vacation OF her second year

the educational distance growing
