Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1916-01-07

There is no more genuinely satis- factory and useful gowl than the one of taffcta. Here is model that seems especially we'll adapted to two ma terials, ard in the illustration, it is made of plain taifeta with plaid. Both skirt and bodice arc full, for the skirt shows plaits used in new and inter- csting way and the bodice gives the over-waist effect that is greatly in vogue together with cuffs that suggest the gauntlet idea. If still more of the over-bodice effect is wanted, it can be extended to the shoulders in place of being cut off as 1t is in the picture. The taffcta made in this way is smart and at the same time, thoroughly practical, but clever women will sec at once that there are great many materials that would be appropriate. Serge would Ec pretty with silk, or, broadcloth with silk or any plain ma terial with fancy one or one could use wool poplin with either silk or satin to make very attractive gown, and there are indeed great many possibilities in the design. Velvet would be handsome on taifeta in place of the plaid on the plain, or velvet on broadcloth would make a beautiful gown or wool poplin, for velvet always makes a good contrast with wool fab rics and is always in vogue. To give still another touch and additional trimming, one could edge the lower part of the over-bodicc and the lower edge of the yoke with fur, for fur gives smartness to every garment this season and is utilized for indoors and out.

LAuDEO BY WILSON

New York, April 17.-President viii.
son characterized the Democratic par
ty as the party "for all the forward.
looking forces of the country" in a
letter read at the annual dinner of

the party for young men and for all
the forward looking forces of the
country; for those who will not turn
back to privileged control and who
do mean to 60 forward to the realiza.
ton of every genuine human right.
81 had hoped to have the privilege
of speaking to you, however imper-
fectly, the message of hope and con-
fidence which should spring to the
lips of every Democrat who seeks in
their true light the past achievements
and future opportunity of the great
party to which we belong"
