Fashion Notes "
~ By May Manton

TtiE costumes Of this season show
so much embroidery such lavish
use Of rich material, such an alto
eether sumptuous display oi color,
that one grove a little weary with u
all and turns with something like a
longing Tor rest. 70 the comparatively
simple THINGS few a. thev are. Un-
douhtcdly carriaPc and evening cloaks
are 60 be really wonderful. No other
word seems quite adequate TO express
the beauty OF material and OF color.
Velvet is a iavorite material and Il ~
used ~ the richest. warmest tones
trimmed with fur TO suggest the very
hciahi OF luxury also. 20 convey the
idea that there can be nothing but
wealth m this country Of ours surely
no poverty, no want, tor one sees only
the sumptuous costumes. only the won
derlul cloaks, the simpler. palmer are
hidden from view We must search
them out il we would learn about
them Rose colored velvet lined with
a soft creamy satin and trimmed with
black skunk makes one evening wrap
that Is a delight. King blue velvet
with black fox makes another, and
sometimes one secs velvet further
enriched. or presumably enriched
by embroidery Of beads or embroidery
Of gold threads.
Il is evident that we are 10 be almost
hafharic in the matter Of beads. they
are put to 30 many uses and they are 50
frequently overdone. but there are
beads that always give a beautiful
effect and there are a great many
bead ornaments and bead accessories
that in no way suggest criticism.
very beautiful afternoon gown OF
quite simple sort seen recently COM
bines black serge with black char
meuse satin and the wide belt was en-
broidered for approximately eight
inches at the front with beads in rich
reds and greens and yellows and was
very handsome indeed. Whenever
the trimming is used with such reserve
and with coloTing of such sort, II IS
beautiful Steel beads are used with
very good results, too, and jet and
steel together make some very
beautiful trimmings. Somewhere,
somehow we must be bright and
scintillate or the costume will lose
the up-to-date touch, that is, for
those designed Tor indoor wear, out
the wise woman keeps the brilliant
effect in reserve and is not led astray
by the overdone effects that many OF
the models display.
As has heen said so often, Il Il the
simpler models which after all. hold
the fancy and remain in the memory.
A very beautiful velvet suit seen
today seems 20 emphasize that idea.

For the Holiday Party
By May M0ntOn

~ COURSE there will be holiday
parties, was there ever a Christ
mas without, and equally OF
course there must be pretty frocks in
readiness. Here are three very charm
ing designs, one for the very tiny girl
and two for the older girls. Appro-
priately, they can be made from the
hne lingerie materials that some
mothers think best for the younger
contingent or from net or from simple
lace or from Georgette crepe or from
crepe de chine OF from taffeta. In
the illustration, however, the hounced
dress shows a pretty embroidered net
that is both childlike and dainty.
The founces are Joined one to the
other and the little bodice is arranged
over a net lining. Beneath the dress
is worn a slip Of pale pink taffeta and
the girdle is Of pink velvet ribbon
roses and velvet ribbon flowers are
the newest and smartest that can be
worn.
The dress with the bertha marks
something Of an innovation. For some
time berthas have not been seen, but
they are always pretty and always
becoming and consequently their
return is welcome. This little dress
is made Of pink crepe de chine with
trimming of ribbon frills and lace
insertion. but you can copy it in EN-
broidered swiss muslin or in embroid-
cred wolfe If you like such fabrics
better than the crepe. or you could
make il OF taffeta with just a hem
and tucks finishing the skirt and the
bertha trimmed with ruches Of the
same. II lower neck is wanted. the
blouse can be cut out on the line of
the bertha. The skirt is straight and
gathered, consequently It is easy to
tuck. white swiss muslin embroid-
cred with blue or with pink dots for
the dress with bands of ribbon in the
color in place of the lace and with
a lace frill finishing the bertha would
make quite different effect from this
one but an equally smart one for no
one thinks Of washing embroidered
muslin and fabrics OF such sort, and
they are trimmed with ribbon and
with silk as freely as silk itself.
If the hounced dress we're wanted
for the Girl Of fourteen, il would be
pretty TO make it Of taffeta. 20 cut
the founces with straight edges and
to finish them with cords and to cord
all the edges Of the bodice while the
little center piece is made Of tucked
net or Of Georgette crepe embroidered
by hand. Here. a girdle is worn. but
the upper edge Of the skirt is finished
with shirrings and arranged over the
lower edge Of the bodice, consequently.
the qirdle is unnecessary
The tiny tots dress as shown here
is made Of white challie showing a
design Of moss rose buds and i
trimmed with pink ribbon frills. IL Is
a dainty dress and a very charming
dress but il can be copied in various
materials. The skirt is straight, con
sequently. II is good for bordered ma
terials. for embroidered douncing and
the like while It would be easy TO make

with a hemstitched edge. Handier-

in the world. Its simplicity separates
il most pleasantly from the more
elaborate models that the Avenue has
TO display.
We have seen evening. gowns n
metallic brocades and we have seen
evening gowns OF the most gorgeous
silks and ol nets embroidered with
beads and with silver until the work
seems over heavy for the foundation.
Today there was shown an evening
gown Of corn yellow tafeta with
beautifully draped skirt forming a
suggestive pannier over each hip and
a prettily draped round evening bodice
with becoming short sleeves. There
was absolutely no trimming save that
the drapery at the left side was held
by little bunch Of yellow flowers and
that at the waist line was a narrow
ribbon OF Royal blue showing a simple
design OF leaves brocaded in silver.
There were numberless gowns and
suits 81 more elaborate sort, but these
two stand forth as distinctive.
We have grown accustomed 70 en-.
hroidery Of all sorts and TO braid. a
novelty is found in a suit Of chiffon
velvet that is stenciled with dye paint
10 produce a very novel and somewhat
attractive result. IL is dark taupe in
color and the stencil shows soft pastel
shades that are exceedingly pretty
against the background. How far
such treatment will succeed, how far
become a feature is a question. but
this one suit, beside being novel, has
a certain charm TO commend il.
The rets Of hats. mufs, bags and
scarfs arc constantly taking new forms.
A very pretty one IS made Of Paisley
shawl with bands OF Hudson Seal and
everywhere, this idea Of the matching
sets is apparent. The Paisley shawls
and the Indian shawls will be used to
some extent. but velvet and the heavy
silks arc the materials most in demand
for accessories OF the kind and we may
safely look for some very charming
development, with the coming Of the
colder season.

Chic Designs for
Simple Gowns

OIMPLE gowns are in exceptional
demand this season. We have
- learned 70 know the charm and
the value OF the so-oalled sports
costume and we adapt it to as many
occasions as possible. and We also
have learned that the entire gown
made of a simple. fabric and in a
simple way is as practica, and ser
vicoable a garment as the wardrobe
fan contain.
The sports costume as il is shown
here is made with a Russian blouse
that is finished with a sailor collar and
with a two-piccc skirt In the picture
20 is made OF wool Jersey and -
trimmed with wide braid. the sash
eing made Of the trimming material.
nd wool Jersey is one OF the best
liked materials for Winter costumes
. this sort. but il could be copied
~ serge or in whatever material seems
dapted 70 the special need and TO
the special taste.
The dress 10 the left Of the picture
combines a very attractive blouse with
q skir, that shows plated pannels that
are becoming and practical. Here. Il
rs made Of shepherd check with
trimming of velvet and white broad
cloth. II makes a gown so good in
effect. so chic in its lines that il can
be worn for many afternoon occasions,
vet Il is so absolutely simple that L
will be quite correct before the
luncheon hour The skirt, besides
serving for the gown, makes an ex-
-cllent model for the odd skirt to be
worn with separate waists, and for
such use II can be made OF serge or OF
abardine or Of taifeta OF even Of a
niaid velvet for we apply plaid velvets
To the simplest possible uses. The old
time theory that rich materials were
suited only 90 formal occasions has
long since passed away. Many Of
the sports skirts TO be worn with shirt
waists are shown made Of velvet in
pretty plaids and stripes and they
are exceedingly attractive. For the
blouse put TO such use. taifeta and
crepe de chine OF Georgette crepe or
cotton voile would be an appropriate
material. Plain taffeta would be
pretty with the collar and cuffs OF
plaid.
Among the new cotton materials are
to be found exquisitely lovely voiles
with stripes Of color that are charming
for the odd blouscs 10 be worn for
various simple occasions also, there
are certain new silk and cotton ma

usage. 1t is a season of bright color
however, and many Of these shirtings
show stripes in really brilliant effects
on white grounds. A novelty is what
is known as the International stripe,
that is to say. a white voile. one piece
Of which shows the red, white and
blue of our own country, another
the Characteristic colors Of France,
third, those Of England and so on.

CONCENTRATION OF
CARRANzA TROOPS

Ell Paso, Tex, June 27.-Carranza
troops in Northern Chihuahua are be.
ing concentrated hastily and in force
along the line of the Mexican railway
between Juarez and Chihuahua City,
according to private dispatches.
These messages said that eight
troop trains packed with soldiers to
be distributed at points between Villa
Ahumada and Laguna had left the
state capital
Military men assume from this
movement that in event of hostilities
with the United States the Mexican
plan contemplates the. sparing of no
effort to hold the railroad, the main
artery Of transportation from the Dor
der to the interior.
While the Mexican troops are being
aligned along the railroad other re.
ports indicated that General Pershing's
expeditionary command, fewer than
fifty miles to the west, has been
drawn into a parallel line extending
up the Santa Marca valley from Ell
Vale to Columbus, N. M.
Large Mexican forces are being
gathered in Villa Ahumada and Monte
yuma, while it is reported here Gen
eral Pershing's largest forces are in
Ell Vale and Colonia Dublan.

BULL MOOSE PARTY
TO SUPPORT HUGHES

Chicago, June 2S.-By a vote of 81
to 6, with nine members declining to
vote, the national committee of the
Progressive party, at the end of a
stormy session, endorsed Charles E.
Hughes for president and the Bull
Moose party practically went out of
existence as a national political or
~ganization.
The fight in the committee to en-
dorse Hughes was led by George w.
Perkins of New York, James R. Gar
field of Ohio and Chester H. Rowell of
California. John M. Parker, vice pres
idential nominee, was among those
who opposed endorsement.
Before the above action was taken
a letter from Colonel Roosevelt was
read finally declining to accept the
presidential nomination of the party
and strongly urging the Bull Moose or
ganization to support Charles E.
Hughes. The letter indicted the Will
son administration as having "been
guilty of shortcomings more signal
than those of any since Buchanan"
