or Velvet and Fur.
As regards luxury and comfort
nothing can exceed the velvet and fur
gowns. Moleskin combines SO happily
with all fabrics that II has been Law

hat is made of the fur and the chiffon.
We had a return OF the ripplsd

the figure snugly and ripples away
into innumerable little folds ana frills

years ago. Women dress now with
the enthusiasm always resulting in
success; It is as IL every woman had
made up her mind to express in her
ralment something Of the Joy in her
heart and was determined not only to
admire her sisters appearance. but
also to be admired.
Evening Gowns Here. Again.
We have seen sort of compromise
dress in recent times which has served
as an all day frock, being put on in
the early morning hours for work or
business and appearing for whatever
gaiety the evening brought, Now the
evening gown is here again.
Jet leads all other materials and
trimmings and bids fair to overdo Its
welcome by pushing everything else
aside. Not for long months had we
seen the sheathlike black gown of Sc
quins and beads; of late 1t shines
forth, literally, like a cuirass and holds
the attention. Often the best makers
cleverly combine shining sequins with
softening tulle or velvet, the result
being a very happy one indeed.
This sort OF evening dress / find de-
veloped in black velvet, of which the
rather tight and very long skirt II
made. The originality of the design
Is expressed in the bodice, which pre-
sents the two neck lines now feature
OF the newest creations This partic-
ular bodice is sleeveless and n wide
ceinture OF gold tissue placed just at
the waist line. Above this a wide
belt of flame colored velvet ribbon
goes to be tied in a fiat bow at the
back and falls quite to the bottom of
the skirt like a sash. over the entire
bodice, back and front, falls string at
ter string Of the smallest Jet beads,
so that the colored ssshes appear I'M
derneath these threads OF black. The
effect is lovely and distinctly unusual.
Double Neck Line Is New.
AS to the new double neck line, It Is
made by arranging the undermining of
a frock in a sort of tucker or chemi-
settle effect and then placing the outer

Only the utmost watchfuiness pre-
vented the malign group in Oklahoma
from counting us out. and now more

have to keep experts and legal talent

partisan in that organized opposition
to suffrage. The outgoing Governor,

one great handicap the SUITS met in
their campaign-Southern prejudices
against the enfranchisement of women,

Another handicap was the influenza
epidemic, which moved down many OF
the States best suffrage workers.
But the suffs didn't mind that. They

The gayest afternoon frock have
seen reflects the quaint old fashions
OF GodeYs Lddy's Book of long long
ago. 1t Is made of sky blue taffeta
and black velvet. The skirt has the
wide, shirred fulness of the eos, ex-
cept that 1t Is caught up at one side
to give IL a 1918 look. No trimming
breaks the long. sweeping line OF the
taffeta. The tight black velvet basque
has a point back and front at the
waist line.
The sleeves are tight to the elbow,
where they break into two long tabs
of black velvet with a strip OF the
blue taffeta to trim them. With this
pleasing dress Is worn a fiat black
velvet hat with dropping blue ostrich
feather sweeping down the back. A
tiny round mum Of seal goes with It,
and to give the real old fashioned
note white kid gloves stop just at the
wrist under a fall OF lace.

The cape Is worn carelessly over the
shoulders so that 1t appears to be
