A Daily Fashion Talk BY Florence Rose


TNlIERE is no mistaking the vogue of
L the panel. You will And it every
where; on the separate blouses and
skirts. the serge dresses for morning or
afternoon. and the satin, tricoette and
chiffon dresses for the afternoon. And,
strange as II may seem, the panel back
is almost universally becoming to wom-
en- that is, of course when it is prop
ery made and of the right proportions
The badly made panel hanging down
the back of a frock Is most unsightly,
In fact, anything wrong on the back of
a garment is always very much worse
than twice as glaring a fault on the
front of the costume. For almost every
woman who is conscious OF an error on
the front Of dress will manage some
how TO hold the eye of the passerby,
and so prevent the eye from picking out
the flaw. But no one can control the
eyes of the pedestrians behind. who may
have plenty of time and opportunity to
study the back view of the person pre-
ceding them.
As far as I can see there IS no other
pitfall regarding the panel. and II one
guards against the poorly made. you
are very sure Of having something that
will stay in fashion fer some time to
come. There are. to be sure, a variety
OF panels, those that reach to the lower
edge and hang straight, the panel that
hands to the edge of the skirt. but is
looped to the waistline. and the panel
that hangs just below the hipline.
1t isn't always that the panel is what
Is known as the swinging panel for very
frequently, indeed. the panel is made in
one with the back of the frock. The
Sketch today is of one of those dresses
that show this style of panel. This
frCck is developed in fiber silk and is.
to my way of thinking, a comfortable
looking frock. You know the kind. that
one can put on in the morning and feel
quite at ease in all through the day
The front of the dress is embroidered
from the neckline to the hem of the
tunic. A wide belt slips under the
panel at the back and fastens at the
left side with two buttons covered with
the material
This is one of the Collarless dresses,
Cf which l told you some time ago.
These dresses are enjoying a good bit
of popularity just at present, which ap-
pears to be increasing as the fall season
advances.
The large hat worn with this frock is
Of dark brown satin. The under brm
facing Is beige color. The feather fancy
that lies close to the brim Is of dark
brown.

pale. Ruth had not slept well, and
Helen was evidently moved strongly by
some news.

lessly
Heard what?"
"Oh, haven't you heard anything at

Ruth shook her head.

Ruth wrinkled her forehead in a
frown. Last Wednesday,"

NO"

Missing! Scott missing? What
would that mean Helen?" Ruth almost
whispered the last.
Jim says that he went out with some
others on a scouting expedition and did
not return
The two girls were standing on the
subway platform and Ruth was so quiet
that Helen turned to her curiously, as
though she could not understand her
attitude. Ruth herself felt curiously
stunned, dead inside. Scott was re-

themselves with that fact. Scott was

IF there is one thing which will give a

all others which will give cheer and

When pajamas first made their ap.
pearance In feminine guise they were
expensive, and while many Of us prob
ably longed to adorn ourselves in one of
these fetching little affairs. we felt that
the cost was much too high for our slen-
der purses. But now they are much more
reasonably priced. One of the shops dis
plays a cunning pair of pink pajamas
with low pointed neck finished with
hemstitching, and pantalettes caught in

sure you, and the price is only $3.50.

room in the house that doesn't need 2
waste paper basket is the dining room
No other room, however, is complete
without one. But on the other hand n
would never do to put a heavy bras
basket In a bedroom, or a dainty white
wicker one in the living room. Perhaps
the one kind of waste basket which
would look well almost any place in the
house is cretonne-covered basket,
These come in several sizes and shapes
and are covered with most attractive
cretonne designs. They are pretty
enough to be ornamental, and certainly
they are most useful. And their price
is only s1.25, Here too is a suggestion
for gift.
