! satins and jersey silks; wool Jersey in
bright tones of rose, green, gold, and
like shades is also popular.
The separate skirt and contrasting
coat are particularly smart for sports
purposes. Some Of the good shops are
showing cream white serge skirts, com
bined with wash satin blouses, and
coats of blue serge, or the novelty
striped silks or linens, for tennis, golf
and the like. This combination Of
white skirt and blue coat is not new,
of course, but it is unusually effective.
Handkerchief Linen Blouses.
Organdy, voile, crepe de Chine and
the wash satins are practical and popu.
lar for blouses this summer, and par
ticularly dainty revival is handkerchief
linen. Although one expects linen to
crush more easily than almost any Of
the other materials, it is nevertheless
cool and fresh for summer wear. There
are some. especially pretty stripes and
patterns in these linens, combinations
of rose, French blue, pale greens, and
the various other pastel shades, now IA
vored in the crepes, voiles and other
sheer cottons and silks. Two effective
peplum blouses are illustrated here; one
is of pongee, a slip-on model finished at
the normal waist with the new elastic
shirring, and the other is of pale pink
organdy. Tie pongee blouse is worn
with pongee skirt, making cool
frock for mornings or informal after
noon purposes. The organdy blouse,
which closes down the front with loops
and tiny crystal buttons, is belted with
a narrow black grosgrain ribbon belt,
and is worn with one of the new black
satin skirts. This is one of the novel
combinations of the season for after.

ularly interesting possibilities this sea.

Wash Satin Favored for Suits, Separate
Coats and Skirts- Handkerchief
Linen, Striped and Dotted
Smart for Shirtwaists
Stenciled Shoe Tops the Latest Fad

New York, June 14.-With the first
sultry days of summer, one naturally
turns to white, or the pale-toned linens
and cottons. Owing to the popularity
Of stripes and checks, it is safe to say
that it will not be an allwhite season,
but all-white is to be very popular, new
ertheless.
Wash Satin in Suits and Dresses.
One Of the coolest and most novel of
the new summer materials, both for
suits and dresses, is wash satin. This
comes in the plain fiat tones and also in
white. 1t is practical fabric, too, as
it sheds dust, does not wrinkle readily,
and launders perfectly. Coats and
blouses, too, for wear with skirts Of
linen, the corded cottons, or the regula-
tion suit skirt of serge or gabardin, +,
are being fashioned Of wash satin, most
effectively. A tennis coat, in Norfolk

Having reached its height, it is said
that the hand-painted notion is now on
the wane. Perhaps the very last thing

white tops. are finished with delicate
~ colored feur- de-ls or orchid, and can
vas shoes also are stenciled effectively
to carry out the color scheme of the
froek. For low shoes and pumps the
stenciled stocking is the thing. Gre

worn with white linen and cotton sports
costumes.

Separate Coats and Skirts.

How the separate skirt could ever
have been laid aside for season or
two, as it was, is indeed mystery,
when one considers how very practical
it is. Its popularity, however, this sea,
son is quite making up for the year or
two of indifference. Separate skirts of
taffeta, satin, faille and similar silks
are being Worn considerably for all
daytime purposes, combined with
blouses of Georgette, chiffon and the
other sheer silks. For sports purposes,
striped and checked linens, canvas
weaves, cotton velours, corduroys, and
the various white corded cottons are
favored, as well as the novelty wash

the Progressives doing the splitting,

Judge Wilder said that Secretary
Lane made several speeches in San
Francisco, telling commercial and
civic organizations before which he
spoke that the Democratic administra-

and preparedness" H.. =
AS to what the nature of the legal

The survey that is now being made
OF The Bronx is expected TO be com

objects: The encouragement Of fur
ther development of the present indus
tries Of The Bronx; TO get new plants
there and TO point out the strength and
weaknesses in the various factors en-
tering into the industrial organization
of the borough. This survey is being
undertaken by the Bronx Board of
Trade and the New York University.
"The problems affecting the educa-
tion and general welfare Of the work
ers, especially those relating 10 the in
efficiency in industry, call for their So
luton the heartiest cooperation, not
only of the Young Mems Christian As

causes for the industrial strength of
the borough? This question Is an
swered thus, by calling attention TO the
fact that there Is no scarcity Of skilled
