! three-quarter Prince Albert coat
which was thrown into the fashion
market in early autumn is that it does
not have a good swing or movement of
fabric after the alteration.
The new short jacket is something
more jaunty and has more of an air OF
bravado and youth than is possible in
the abbreviated Prince Albert coat.
However, in the opinion of many wo-
men, it is better to have the short
jacket minus the jaunty swing than to
have the three-quarter coat which, in
the cut of last autumn, is quite out of
fashion.
Mind you, there are certain kinds of
three-Quarter top coats, but they are
built in the nature of peasant TUNES,
medieval garments, belted Russian
types. Even these are giving way to
the narrow skirt and the short Jacket
which does not ripple from the waist
but from the shoulder.
There are some short jackets that
are fitted to the figure and flare at
the back from the waistline onward,
but the smart thing, the French jack
ct of September which has at last be-
come Incorporated as a leading Amer
lean fashion, is the youthful, capelike
coat that drops Imply from shoulders
to hipline and usually has an orna-
mental waistcoat that reached to the
chin.
Fabric Does Not Match Skirt.
1t is no longer necessary to insist
upon a jacket and skirt of the same
material Economy plus the desire for
variety has partially eliminated the
| one-fabric costume.
This pieceWork will become more
general and important when the pub
lie thoroly understands the govern
ment decree for a small amount of
than 4 y yards can BE- used, and less,
if possible. This is to conserve wool
for the army.
Therefore, short velvet jackets are
worn with serge and wooden skirts,
and the other way around. The very
fact that jackets have grown short is,
in measure, a quick acceptance of
the governments wish. 1t was for the
same reason that the French suits had
short jackets in October, but the
American wholesale trade got in first
and used up great deal of material
which cannot be spared today.
There is plenty of blue serge in the
land, and if one has a narrow skirt
and a short jacket of it, the costume
will come within the prescribed yard
age.
The sketch shows a costume made
from this amount of cloth. The skirt
is hung from the waiStline with slight
fullness and is trimmed with wide
black silk braid down the middle seam
and at the hem The short coat has

this outlines the armhoies as well.
The serge is saved by an extra
broad, pleated waistcoat of white satin
with a high cellar which is fastened
with red buttons" with black centers
These buttons continue down the front
of the skirt, appear at the back of
the tight cuffs, and enc is used to fas-
ten the interesting belt that is cut
from a piece of the right front and
crosses over at the waistline to hold
the coat in place.

they say, are boarding sugar and

Recently, the grocers by approval
of the food administration, began linn

each customer and are holding flour
