SECRET OF DRESSMAKING ART
To Make Woman Being Gowned Un.
derstano That Her Needs Are
Understood Is a True Gift.

1t is in the combination of color that
the real secret of the art of dress
making lies. If cultivated by the mod
istes with an artistic appreciation of
this fact, the designing of each gown
becomes quite as interesting as the
painters Interpretation of color with
in the scope of beauty on his canvas.
"The most important rule which l
discovered in the course of my expert
ence," says the founder of the house
of Frederick in London, ''is the gift
to make the woman you are gowning
realize that you understand her needs.
She must feel when she enters your
establishment that the frame, the at
mOsphere, the mood of your establish
ment pleases her.
"There are few events so important
in a woman's life as the all-impOrtant
business of ordering new gown. 1t
is a time of great anxiety to her. 1t
is the crisis that decides whether her
clothes are going to contribute to her
happiness. What woman was ever
happy in clothes she did not like?
Therefore it makes all the difference
in the world whether, when she visits
her modiste, she feels in tune with
the gowns that are displayed, as it
were, on the knees of the gods"

SILKS FOR SPRING
Necessity to Some Extent Back
OF Demand for This Material.
Satin, Also, in Tailored and Sports
Suits Promises to Dominate the
Field During Early Season.

The graceful gown shown In the
sketch may be accepted as an example
of the dignified, conservative type of
frock that will be much worn during
the coming spring. To very large ex.
tent draperieS, at least the draperies
that flare at all, have been relegated
to oblivion for the time being, and the
straight silhouette is the desired and
approved one.
Silk fabrics of all kinds are the log
ical ones for spring, and 1t does not
upset the usual order of things that
necessity is to some extent back of the
urge for silk garments for spring 1918.
Silk and satin tailored and sports suits
will dominate the suit field.
Despite statements to the contrary
suits are really being worn to consid-
cradle extent this winter. The fact be-
comes more evident as the season adj
vances, and the weather admits of the
wearing of handsome, heavy, elabo-
rately fur-trimmed garments.
Suits for the winter may be said to
be fashionable rather than popular. A
compliment is paid to the suits shown
by this statement. Suits are, for this
season at least, the aristocrats of the
wOmen's apparel field.
Dresses, however, are perenrially
popular and fashionable as well, and,
as stated, the model here shown is an

WAR BRIDE FR0CK OF GRAY
Three-Piece Costume That May Be of
Daily Use, Novelty Made of All
American Materials.

With the idea in mind that the war
bride" of today wants bridal cos
tune that may be of daily use, Chi
cago designer recently displayed
three-piece costume quite out of the
ordinary.
The coat was of nickel gray poplin,
with the portion from the knees down
of beautiful molelike plush. This was
also used for the high collar, and for
a cape which was worn over the Shout
ders' and reached to the hips, so that
the effect was almost an entire coat
of this material. The coat was tai
lored, fitted the figure closely and belt
ed high. 1t was lined to the waist in
brocaded satin of a matching gray,
with the lower portion Of lightweight
poplin.
A military turban of red velvet had
a long draped veil of matching gray
and was untrimmed.
The one-piece frock was made OF

example of what the spring will bring
forth. The gown is entirely of geor-
gette, except for the girdle and revers,
and these, fashioned of satin, should
offer a color contrast to the gown.
Beige and navy could be attractively
combined, the georgette to be in beige,
with fine soutache braiding in navy
matching the girdle and revers.
This gown is an excellent model for
a mature or even "stout" figure.
To make the gown sketched five and
a half yards of georgette will be re-
quired, together with three-quarters of
a yard of satin, each Sc inches wide.
The frock fastens invisibly at one side.
The plain sleeves are finished at the
wrist with narrow facing of satin.
OF course, drop skirt in shade to
match either the frOck or its trimming
must be part of this gown, unless it
is worn over a separate petticoat Sc
lected for the purpose.

In Way of Trimming.

Have you a dress in the making that
needs" something in the way of bit
of distinguishing decOrativeness? No,
you don't want embroidery, and you
don't want beads, and you prefer some
thing newer even than applique. Well,
if you are looking for something star
tlingly new, the following ought to
prove of paramount interest to you:
Provide yourself with some plain, mar
row tape or ribbon, either satin or
metallic, apply it in the desired motifs
on the underside of the garment; Sc
cure it and finish the edges with ma
chine hemstitching. On the right side
YOU will thus have achieved an unusu-
ally interesting embossed effect. Me-
tallic ribbon thus applied is ever so
lovely on evening dress. And it is
very new departure from ribbon en-
broidery.

CONFESSES TO MURDER
MICHAEL SCHRAMM SAYS HE
KILLED MINISTER AT GARY.
Man Held by Police of Bridgeport,
Conn.,, Says He Shot Rev. Kayser
Motive Was Robbery.

Chicago, Feb. 20.-The mysterious
murder in 1915 of Rev. A. H. Kayser
in TollestOn, near Gary, Ind, is cleared
up by the confession of Michael
Schramm, according TO the police of
Bridgeport, Conn, where Schramm
was arrested.
Acting Chief Forbis of Gary was
Informed that Schramm also confessed
several crimes in Chicago and the
murder of police chief of a small vii
lage near Chicago. He declared the
motive in the Kayser murder was rob-
berry.
He said he was walking past the
minister's house on the evening of
the murder with friend when he
saw the minister sitting alone in his
study. In attempting to hold him up
he fired several shots. He declared
his accomplice since has committed
suicide due to remOrse.
Forbis said the arrest was brought
Christmas eve celebration in the home
Of a family with whom Schramm
roomed in Bridgeport. The sight of
the Christmas tree and children play
ing about it caused him to weep. He
then said he had not lived as he
should. and told of his crimes.
Schramm's admissions were repeat
ed to the police, and Schramm has
been kept under surveillance since
then.
The murder of Rev. Mr. Kayser in
his lonely parish house on the out
skirts of Gary attracted national at
tention. The pastor man of pow
erful physique, was found with his
hands tied and several bullet wounds
in his body. The condition of the
room where his body was discovered
indicated terrific struggle had taken
place.
Many theories were advanced as to
the cause of his murder. Among
them were that he had been muir
dered by pro-ally sympathiZers be-
cause of his violent prO-German ut
terances, but the theory commonly
accepted by his friends was that he
was murdered by personal enemy.

has appeared in this field in tucked

Goods Economist. 1t is made in flesh,
white and other popular crepe shades.
One model in beige inverts the idea of
tucking that is generally used by hav-
ing a deep hemstitched tuck at the top
with the succeeding six or seven tucks
becoming narrower toward the hem till
the bottom tucks measure barely a
quarter of an inch in width. -Four
clusters of tucks are effectively en-

MARROW DRESS TO DOMINATE
Advance Note From Paris Is That
There Will Be Enough Variation
to Afford Choice for All Types.

choice for all types of women. For
one thing, the inclination will be to

nificance which helps to feed the i'm
agination and to make the replica
more beautiful even in it's application
to the modern woman.
An instance of this kind is found
in a model which has a skirt made of
cream-colored lace fiounces. There is
a sort of tunic arrangement looped up
at the sides which serve to impart an
old-time effect.
With this skirt is shown a fitted
basque of twO-tone blue grosgrain
taffetas. The material is extended be-
low the waistline for about four inches
and is slightly rippled. The tiny waist
coat effect of the lace is decorated with
miniature bows of blue velvet ribbon.

is square-cut in accordance with the
modes of the time OF Marie Antoin-
cite.
To be perfectly consistent. a dress
of this type must be accompanied by
hat of the same period. Such a hat
is made of lace on wire frame which
has the enthusiastically up-turned
brim at the back and which is trimmed
with tiny wreaths of pink flowers and
green foliage.
Long streamers of very narrow black

lines are susceptible of development
