Italian Headquarters in Northern Italy, Thursday, November 1.-6 D. m)-(By Associated Press. 1.-The immensity of the covulsion through which the Italian army Is passing makes individual im- pressions count for little. Yet, as an eyewitness at the extreme front up to the day of retirement and then as a par ticipant in the retreat to the new posl- ton westward, the correspondents ex- perience is typical of those hundreds of persons that the army removed from the danger zone.
 General Cadornas sturdy figure was often seen as he went to and from the front. where the Duke of Oasta, com- mander of the third army, and General Capello, commander of the second army, were in personal charge of the wall of steel that the Italians had erected inside Austrian territory.
 RIGID CENSORSHIP
 Nearby at that time was the official station where our dispatches were rigidly scrutinized. The whole city was given up to the supreme military administra- ton. with the streets crowded with all ranks of soldiery.
 This gives & glimpse of the scene which changed with such suddenness when the crisis came late Friday night. From that hour. the correspondent tried to make frequent notes, from which the entries should give the main sequence of events.
 At noon Friday, there was a success sion of air raids. The alarm was sounded by triple gongs, followed by sirens and bells. The streets were cleared, the shops were closed and business was suspended.
 HEAR OF ISONZO CROSSING
 The first definite information was thus given that the Austro-Germans had crossed the Isonzo in huge offensive. Friday night the gravity of the situation led to the consideration of retirement

Such a topcoat can be worn at all
hours of the day, although the hyper
critical may say that 1t is not appropriate

day out during these months OF OCTOBER
and November, when everything IS ne"
in the world of dress. one finds women
OF all grades Of fashion and wealth. dlcR-

There is feeling in the air that all the
processes Of dress are changed. or VIII pe
shortly. We never forget that we re
nation at war and that ii is not possible
to pursue the even tenor of our ways IN
any form of life We glance with merely
a flicker of passing interest today at the
women who come into the restaurants
for a quick lunch. dressed in the fegIla-
ton Army uniforms in dull khaki. with
their vizored caps pulled over the eyes
The fact that fifteen hundred women In
this one town are doing Army motor work
has naturally changed the costumery OF
great mass of their imitators. As 1T Is
with these young women. so IL is through
all the channels of dress in the great
cities. There is no perceptible economy In
buying, but one thinks OF dress in dlf-
ferent terms. That's all

kind that can serve for evening ana art

Portable and full of opportunity for serv-
ice Is quickly accepted today
These coats are made of velours. in the
weave that does not rub off in contact
with any hard object. but keeps It's own
pile and luster throughout months OF hard

There Is a new kind of Jersey cloth
which Is brightly finished on the surface
and shows an inside surface OF thick.
warm worsted cloth. There is kind of
rubberized crepe de chine which will not
allow cold or rain to permeate its weave
and which has been made especially for
one of the great coat designers of the
world.
There Is the heavy English homespun,
which is not as stiff and awkward as the
weave which is put into mems overcoats,
but which gives warmth and yet clings to
the figure like velvet.
The colors that are used in these coats
are midnight blue, tobacco brown. seal
brown, hunting green, heather purple and
raisin purple. They are all neutral tones,
dull and handsome. and do not clash with

sketch. 1t will be noted that the coat
of this suit also aids the back flare to
some extent. inasmucn as generous rull-
ness Is let in at the back in the form
of deep box pleats, but the skirt really
gives the hustle silhouette.
The front of the coat is extended into
long panels over the hips and the
fastening is in surplice style. bands of
the fur which forms the collar being
brought low and crossed at the waist
line so to give this effect.
In one hustle suit recently noted the
front of the coat quite long and
cut in point. lowest at the direct cen
ter. each side sloping gently upward
and back From the hips around the
70 - back of the coat the fabric cut
IN a very full ripple which stood out

nj much of a novelty, and it is not likely

Neloped in rich velvets etc, elaborate

but for the first brisk days of fall and

Not content with merely invading the
ranks of dresses, the hustle silhouette

Interpretation of the hustle silhouette

very full "frill," thus arriving at the

will be actually "hitched' UP and
draped, as in the suit shown in the
