crepe, chiffon, or satin. With these
costumes, the cape's the thing, made
of satin or heavy silk, and hat with
sheer brim, perhaps of Georgette
crepe or chiffon. Then, too organdie
dresses and their accompanying or
candle hats are very much the vogue
for afternoon wear. Some of these
dainty frocks have hemstitching in
the waist and skirt, forming an in
tricate design, the only trimming
deemed necessary. Ruffles, however,
are ever dear to the heart of the
summer girl, and are in no wise neg
lected this year. One finds them on
every type of dress, from the almost
tailored morning frock to the filmiest
of evening dresses. Petticoats (for
we are once more indulging in these
luxuries) are much beruffled. In
deed, all that is possible has been
done to insure a delightful stage
setting for summer, 1918.

Colors play an important part. In
many of the hospitals where wound
ed soldiers are being nursed back to
health, the colors of their surround
ings are considered as much as their
medicine and other treatment. Colors
that we are wearing this summer are
gay, and feminine, and it is right
that they should be so. We, "over
here" must do all in our power to
keep things bright and cheerful.
Where Figures Count.
Another design developed in fig
ured voile is illustrated here. The
odd hip drapery is decided style
feature, the collar and straps are cut
in one and it is the straps that hold
this drapery in place. This is truly
a dress of distinction.

For Sunny Afternoons.

Only the thinnest things appeal to
one as the mercury mounts, and.
after all, it is the thin materials
that seem to suit best ones moods.
There are so many pretty new de-
signs in the thin materials. Printed
chiffons, voiles and marquisettes
that delight one by their very dain-
tiness. The big sprawly figures that
seem to be favorites this season are,
as a rule, in some dark color, de-
cided green, blue, rose or violet on a
white or cream ground. The dress
illustrated here was of printed chif-
fon, giving the effect at a little dis
lance of gray, for the figures were

About Color Schemes.

There has been a good deal of talk
about the psychological effect of the
war on women's clothes, and much
discussion as to the right and wrong
of new clothes at all. From our Al
lies we are getting numerous proofs
that the men who have returned
from the front ION leave" notice the
clothes the women are wearing. If
this be the case, the same thing
holds true in the case of the men
who are going cover there" Surely
it is our duty as well as our privi
lege to dress as well as we can.

black on a white ground, made over
white silk. The draped tunic is one
piece, softly pleated at the waist
line. As all skirts are narrow this
year, this is no exception, for it
measures but one and one-half yards
at the lower edge. The sleeves are
made of white chiffon for GOODNESS.
Lace dresses are considered very
smart, also. Sometimes the tunic is
of chantilly lace, either draped on
the hips, or simply gathered at the
waist. The underdress is usually of
white, golden yellow or some other
fairly light color, giving almost
fairy-like appearance to the deli
cate lace. Often the sleeves are quite
long, and rather tight, and the neck
may be of the collarless variety.
Sashes or girdles of a harmonizing
shade are crushed about the waist,
ending either in long fringed ends
or a huge Japanese bow.
