The Present Styles Very Youth-G Giving


The woman who has not invested in
a one-piece frock this season must
feel very much out OF the swim OF
fashion. AS the days go by, more and
more OF these frocks are seen In serge.
hroadcloth, wool jersey, velours, vel
vet and yelveteen. When a top coat is
not necessary. IA shoulder cape OF fur
is the usual accompaniment Straight
lines continue to be the most approved
in this type OF dress. for the fashion
these days Is to be slim. and no better
way OF obtaining this effect is to be
had than by wearing dresses cut on
these lines. Fashion dispenses these
youth-giying styles most literally at
present, and il is no wonder that wo-
men have taken so kindly TO them for
they make them look young and slen-
der.
For producing straight effects, moth
ing gives better results than the long
unbroken panel and consequently the
panel is now enjoying its day of popu-
larity. A smart effect is shown here
in the dress OF black velvet with a
satin panel extending from neck to
hem. The bullying pockets add to the
style OF this dress and do not detract
from the slender effect Panels are
not all stitched down like this one
Some OF them hang free over the dress
and are known as floating panels. A
dress which has been specially ad-
mired was of dark blue crepe meteor

Now Russian BlOuses
Russian blouses are gaining q
stronger hold day by day and they
have become so universally popular
that the name now stands for almost
any kind OF blouse that has a pep
lum. The high collar and side closing
which once typihed the Russian blouse
are no longer symbols OF IL, for this
blouse has taken on manifold new
forms Many OF them slip on over the
head or are opened In front revealing
a contrasting vest; and as TO the high
collar. IL has been quite usurped by
the fat rolling collar. Some very
dainty models are Of Georgette i'm the

The peplums are sometimes finely
pleated, sometimes gathered, and very
often they are adorned with little fan
cy pockets Blouses OF this type are
made up for dressy wear and they arc
not only in self-toned Georgettes and
chiffons but In lowered and oriental
designs in these sheer fabrics. They
are worn with suits or separate skirts
Black satin and black velvet are
very smart for separate skirts Some

Great encouragement is felt by
all connected with the suffrage
meetings of Wednesday last. AL
though the attendance in the
afternoon was small, Mrs. Hilles'
talk on that occasion was exactly
as forceful as at the street meet
ing in the evening.
A round of the mills was made
at noon, where literature was dis
tributed. (And let me say paren-
thetically that Mrs. Hilles cannot
speak too enthusiastically of the
support given the cause by the
laboring-man.)
Quotations from the talk of
Mrs. Hilles follow:
IA woman of the west with vot-
ing privilege, Immediately loses
that right upon coming east"
I'VE women are classed with
idiots, aliens and insane people"
"Altho l have been paying taxes
for l6 years, the man at my gate,
who owns not one foot of proper
ty, votes, while this right is abso-
lutely denied me-"
"Why should there be an educa-
tional test in order to be able to
vote? Shall man or woman
who is a good, moral, upright cit
izne, be denied the right to say
what the laws shall be, under
which he or she lives, simply be.
cause he or she never had 6
chance to get an education? A
mental test is quite a different
thing from an educational test"
Cards bearing these words
were signed by great numbers o.
, people at the street meeting"
believe in giving women the RICH
y to vote"
f | must speak of the courteou
a treatment rendered Mrs. Hilles
I Miss Sapovits, and myself, Will
e we were distributing cards an,
: while the two former were speak
2 ing, all this, at the time, too, whe
the Carnival Spirit" was in tn
n air. When people who differ al
+ solutely in their views from
|. speaker, still are open to convic
o ton and evidence this fact by a
lack of hostile demonstration
there is great hope, not only fc
the suffrage cause, but for a
l. progressive and humanitaria
u movements in Delaware.
