economically and commercially.
New Clothes That Paris Sends.
Now, of one thing be very certain (:
that while the French do not entertain
the French poilu, they are most excit-
ed about the Anglo-Saxon idea.
The result Is an thrush of gowns to
this country during the last few weeks,
and these are sent over in order to
allure those who are dancing and din
Ing the fighters. The gowns are ex-
pensive, but they will be speedily
copied by the inexpensive shops, and
so 'Arriet, who goes out to an enter
tainment with AIRY, will have the
chance to buy for eight dollars and a
half copy Of the French gown that
cost $500. That is the happiness
found in treading the sartorial path in
America.
1t is good to get these advance
things from Paris. They foreshadow
what Is to be shown to American buy
ers.
If they are honest forerunners Of
our early autumn costumery, then
Paris has not created a revolution In
the silhouette, as was persistently ru-
mored during the month of June. The
salient points of these new clothes are
slenderness, shortness of skirts, an at.
tempt to revive the minaret Of Paul
Poiret fame, an insistence upon sashes
arranged in army fashion, a repetition
Of beige, mustard and tan colorlngs,
and the introduction Of broadcloth.
Floating panels, which have for six
months dotted the entire surface Of
clothes In America, have been abol-
ished, If we Judge by these forerunners.
There are capes on evening gowns
which are made In the most brilliant
fairy-tale manner, reminiscent Of the
extravaganzas in the old days at the
Drury Lane theater in London.
There are no high collars. The 1tal-
ian decolletage Is retained. The Sc
we're neck line, without d line Of white,
remains a part Of the fashions.
Medieval Tunlcs Still In Fashion.
There has been no disposition on the
part Of the French designers to lift the
tunic out of its popular position In ap-
parel. They do not insist upon 1t In
its genuine Slavic style, but they use
It as a model for much that Is done In
the way of over-drapery.
There are tunics that are cut to q
deep point at each side and are moth.
ing but side pieces over long en-
broidered cuirass that reaches nearly
to the knees Of a dark skirt.

New York.-.It Is impossible to avoid
bitter discussion on the question of en-
Pertaining our soldiers and sailors. AS
this struggle progresses, writes fash
ion correspondent, 1t may be that the
entire social fabric will cease to rend
itself apart with personal and national
arguments for and against people, in
and out Of power, institutions for the
good of the cause, and the various
phases of money expenditure that have
arisen In the last year.
Anyone who goes about in various
sectors of society--und by that Is
meant the grouping Of people for all
purposes, not alone gayety-begins to
feel that the hate which is engendered
on the battlefield has its reflection in
the minds of those who are not in the
struggle, except on the side-lines.
A Civil war veteran says that this
pitching of women into the public
arena, with its alleged bad effect on
their tempers and temperaments, has
nothing to do with the situation; that
the Civil war engendered the same kind
of personal animosities. Yet the, Civil
WARMTH all Its tragedy, hate, death
and sacrifice, which necessarily af-
fected the personal lives Of everyone
In America more than this war has
done-did not throw women together
in groups Of thousands.
Is it odd. therefore, in this rather
malevolent turn which emotions have
taken during year of war, that the
question of entertaining our soldiers
should be thrown into the arena Of
argument?
Reason for Brilliant costumery.
Now we come to the question Of
fashions. 1t is not possible to separate
clothes from this peculiar and en-
phatic situation which has arisen
through the conviction that the fight
ers must be entertained, going and
coming.
Whatever the government has asked
women to do In the way Of clothes
they have done gladly, but that does
not keep them from dressing well
every day and night as they pass to
ind from one entertainment to an
other.
These gowns are far from expensive
In the mass. OF course, the Individual
who has money continues to spend 1t
in going to her own dressmaker and
paying well for excellent cloth, good
fitting and perfect finish but the aver
age woman, even though she have
money, has begun to find out all kinds
of places where smart-looking clothes
may be bought for small prices. They
are also turning out good deal of
work in their own sewing rooms, after
the fashion Of % years ago.
BY the way, one Of the striking
phases of this war Is that women boast
of the cheapness of their clothes, and
regale each other with the method of
making old clothes into new, and the
small shop where you can get some
thing that looks like France for $40.
Many Of them have also quickly
adopted the governments 'inside-out"
