arbitrary powers, government manage
ment of railroads, and the steady and
swift approach of prohibition? Take
the very question of wOman's apparel.
The limitation of yardage was vol
untary measure, adopted by all con-
cerned, before the government had
made one move toward the industry.
1t was beau geste, as the French say,
freely made by the leaders of the
great interests connected with wom-
ems clothes.
So with that much settled, we pass
to the condition of the, sartOrial out
look for spring, with quiet minds. 1t
is an attractive one, in which individ-
ual good taste, and good judgment,
will have full play, within the limits
Of four and one-half yards of material.
Dressmakers have Acknowledged al
ready that this suggestion of limita-
tiOn, this difficulty, has spurred their
invention. 1t is like the rules of
game, which are necessary to insure
a good contest. Never has study Of
ones individual type been more profit
able than at present. There are styles
to suit all figures, all faces, and all in
comes. If woman likes Oriental ef-
fects, turned-under skirts, straight
armless coats and sashes, she will find
them, as she may in the sketch shown.
If she prefers the Occidental, she may
choose the frock of gray silk, with an
embroidered cape and tunic of chiffon
and keep the sash, weighing it with
bright pink rose. She may fold
length of brocade around her and hang
her arms and neck with strands of
jewels. She may swath satin frock
in clouds of tulle; she may cut it plain
ly Of crisp taffeta. She will find in
dorsement for any fancy among the
products of the biggest names in the
world Of dressmakers.
Study Ones Type Is Spring Slogan.
"Study your type" is a more impor-
tant slogan than ever, for it cannot be
said that any definite clothes guide
post has been erected for our guidance
along one definite road. Rather there
is series of delightful paths, each
one tending in the same general direc-
tiOn, but each with endearing charac-
teriStics of it's own. They merely wind
through the same sort of country. A
woman with any idea at all of what
suits her, will surely prefer this to the
single mOnOtonOus highway, common
to everybody. These variations are
shared by all phases of dress. They
are just as true of the new millinery.
No sooner do we hear that small hats
are in the majority, than the news Of
dropping brims breaks upon us.
Nothing very startling; a narrow sill
houette, far better managed than it's
predecessor; charming details, clever
cutting, with great discretion in dec
grafton and accessories-these seem to
be the leading features of Americas
first wartime spring. They promise
an excellent choice among garments
which will suit our mood, give practi-
cal service, and keep the whole vexed
problem of woman's apparel from rev.
olutionary measures which might have
far-reaching serious consequences.
