(From the Topeka JournalD

 Protests against the increase of freight rates ordered by Director Gen cral McAdoO continue to pour into Washington. A rema rIa ble feature of the situation is that these protests come from shippers and state railway commissions and not from the ulti- mate consumer who must pay them in the end. Whatever increase in rates the sender or the receiver of freight be called upon to pay is certain to be added to the price of the goods before they reach the fna purchaser.

ONE PIECE FROCK
Wool Jersey Popular Fabric for
These Simple Gowns.
Imported Models Are Being Shown for
Early Fall Wear With a
Large Collar.

Wool jersey continues to be exceed
1ngly popular for the one-piece frock
of utmost simplicity. Several of the
very good looking imported models are
Shown for early fall wear with large
collar which can be dropped about the
neck, this arrangement being one which
lends an air OF distinction TO its wear
er in these collarless days, observes a
fashion writer. 1t also gives an unde-
niable serviceable air TO q type of
frock which would formerly have done
duty as a sport costume, but is now
considered suitable for all kinds of
formal wear.
Navy blue wool jersey enjoys scant
favor as compared with blue serge,
but there seems to be decided vogue
for black jersey, this material being
surprisingly attractive. Invariably it
is embroidered in bright colors or
white.
One smart black jersey frock for
early fall wear was embroidered bold
ly in black and white chenille. The
high collar and girdle were of knitted
chenille in black and white. There
was crocheted border of white
chenille around the tunic and white
buttons fastened the blouse and tunic
down the side front.
Another wool jersey frock was in
beige and of monastic simplicity, its
swathing collar being tied by severe
cord with weighted ends. This inter-
esting collar and large patch pockets
afforded the only note of relief to the
severity of this model.
Satin is very much used for the mid
season frOck and numerous smart new
designs in black, gray and blue satin
are appearing these days.
particularly smart model i'm taupe
satin was seen recently. The gown is
fashioned on Russian lines and has no
trimming save for a narrow frill of
white at the neck and sleeves. The
blouse is fastened at the left side of
the front with small round material
buttons.

TO MAKE THE PARASOL BAG
Continuance Is Roomy, Easily Spread

Lining for Black.

If you have a handsome parasol be.
| ginning TO show wear at the center OF
| the top, carefully remove the silk from
the frame and cut out circle 5 inches
| in diameter.
From new silk, in q shade to match
the predominating color, cut two cir
cles z inches in diameter, placing
pasteboard between these. FIT this in
to the opening made In the center of
the parasol, this forming the bottom of
bag.
At the points of parasol sew rings
covered with single crochet stitch.
Through rings draw silk cord, finishing
with large tassels and also place tas-
sells at bottom of bag.
This bag is roomy, easily spread
open and very beautiful. If silk is
thin from wear, lining can easily be
added, using a section of parasol for
pattern.
A black parasol lined with bright vel
low with black cord and tassels would
be very effective A bunch of yellow
silk oranges could be added.
