white beans that have been washed

They are especially effective on white

Some of the new neckwear shows
black ribbons run through buttonholed
slips that tie in a little bow at the
front. There is a particularly ingenu-
Gus look about ribbon so laced and
tied that gives quaint look to even
the newest neckwear.
Filet lace, of the finest sort, is per-
haps the distinctive mark of lace
trimmed neckwear of the latest vim
tage.
Some of the autumn hats show
crowns formed of inch wide strips of
felt. with raw edges, laced together TO
form a crlss-crossed surface like those
mats We used TO make at school, and
then formed into the hat crown. The
brims Of these hats are Of velvet.
AN especially effective use of let but
tons Is on the new satin blouses. The
buttons are used both for ornamen mt
and for the purpose of buttoning the

Black and white plaid skirts, with
little black cloth jackets, and white

young girls. They arc both practical
and smart in appearance, just the COM
bination desired by the wise mother.
Jet, and still more jet. seems to be
the cry OF fashion at present. Some OF
the new blouses OF Georgette are
heavily embroidered with Jet beads

SOLDIERS IN FAVOR
OF BRIGHT DRESSES

| much OF the commercial shipwreck in
women's apparel was prophesied.
1t is the psychological quality in hui
man nature that is back Of all this
argument about accepting colors
Masses OF women think that black,
and blue, and brown should be worn
until peace is declared, with ourselves
among the victors. Others insist that
this is the very time to brighten the
moral atmosphere by adorning our
selves with the plumage of paradise
birds.
Urged by 100000 Men.
! The soldiers, a million at a time.
agree with the latter class. They urge,
individually and collectively, the en-
livening Of the landscape by the most
attractive gowns that women can
wear. They want nothing dull about
them. They refuse to see any attract
iveness whatever in khaki uniforms on
women. They beg for fripperies,
furbelows and frills. They ask for
| sashes, gay colors and jaunty hats.
Mind you. this question is not one
that ends with the psychology Of the
masses. 1t dips deep down into the
vitals OF the commercial body. 1t has
disturbed thousands OF manufacturers,
and they are anxiously awaiting the
verdict of the women as to whether II
shall be black and brown or red and
yellow. If they find that brilliant col
ors are a drug on the market their
personal fortunes are involved. which
means that their taxes and Liberty
Loans and Red Cross gifts must be
sorely restricted. If the world Of
women decides against demure colors
and asks for brilliant tones that have
always been a part of the warriors
equipment, then black and blue and
brown materials will be shelved.
1t is a stiff question, and the worst
OF 1t is that there is no exact way to
answer 1t with finality.
Conservatism Holds Back.
Conservatism holds back from
brilliant celebration through fear Of
being misunderstood and regarded as
frivolous; but the world has changed
its entire attitude toward the symbols
Of suffering and sacrifice since the
word morale" sprang from the hearts
OF the French people to the lips Of all
the world. There you have in a nut
shell the reason for this debatabhe
question that is hanging over us while
the autumn fashions are coming in.
The shops will give US red, blue,
green. yellow. plaids. stripes, Chinese
brocades, Bayadere bands and all the
glory Of Byzantium and the Aztecs.
Wear them II you will.
The American woman, strange to
say. Is not violently addicted to bright
colors. Europe has always wondered
at our persistent selection Of sombre
oolors. A celebrated academician came
from Europe to America three times.

~ NE OF the distinctive new DlOuSeS
Is Of the style that Is heavily
~ trimmed with bright wool en-
broidery. There may be a wool scarcity
or shortage-and indeed-it is probably
because of this very scarcity that the
new blouses are embroidered with
wool. A Georgette blouse and a silk
skirt with wool embroidery deftly ap-
piled, give a wooDy appearance, any
way.
The colors usually shown In these
new wool embroideries are of the
brightest sort imaginable. Blue, red.
green and yellow are all combined,
with excellent judgment and striking
effect, on q single blouse OF navy
Georgette.
A striking frock, Of tricolette, has a
rolling collar OF white Georgette, so
heavily braided with white soutache
that 1t Is stiff enough to hold its rolling
shape d II 1t were stiffened with wires.
Beaver and velvet are smartly COM
bined In many new hats. Sometimes
the crown and sometimes the brim Is
Of velvet. and the other part of the
hat is OF beaver. One hat on the
Anzac model, with a softly rolling
crown of beaver turned up at one side,
and a soft round crown of velvet, in a
becoming shade of gray. Is made In
this way. and another larger hat has
a big puffed crown of soft beaver and
wide, uneven brim Of velvet.
A pair o. slipper buckles for black
satin slippers are made Of small. cut
steel beads. simply fastened one next
tho other in an oblong shape to form
buckle.
High black satin boots, for house
wear. are true leather savers. They
are really very smart. They lace
snugly about the ankles, and are made
with French heels and moderate
points. Oxfords Of black satin also
laced, are another autumn specialt,
in the shoe shops. These are especially
pretty for informal house wear in the
afternoon.
Black Jet buttons have by no means
been used to the limit yet. They are
used with excellent effect on some OF
the new autumn frocks, and they also
