SPRING FASHIONS

NEW YORK, April "A great
Spring openings now, and there are
fashions from Paris to show us what
the French are doing; fashions from
the Orient Chiefly in colorings and
designs is the Orient presently, and
American fashions made from Amer
lean materials. There is one thing
noticeable in all the newest modes,
and that is the extreme simplicity
even when there is great deal of
hand embroidery and braiding.
The overblouse is enjoying great
popularity. and can be seen in every
kind of costume, from sports clothes
to the most elaborate evening gowns.
There are fascinating slipover
creations of Georgette crepe, en-
broidered of beaded, with their sashes
flor they all have sashes) slipped
through slashes in the front and back
One of these dainty accessories was
gray Georgette crepe, braid in gray
soutache, with an underdress of cloth
of-silver. The effect was perfectly
charming, as you can well imagine
Negligees and Kimonos

There are many coates worn over
accordion pleated petticoats. One
wonderful one, imported from Paris,
was well worth studying. The under
meath part was of ecru satin, the
skirt accordion-pleated, the waist a
tight peasant waist, corded around
the neck and armholes. Over this
was a wide lace, with the figured
part at the waistline, the neck being
simply gathered upon silver cord;
the skirt of this was gathered onto
the waist. Under this lace overdress
was wide rose girdle-sash, loosely
tied in the back. The sleeves were of
silver net, long and flowing, wonder
fully draped SO that the lowest edge
touched the hem. Altogether, it was
the most charming thing / have seen.

Figured Voiles for Summer

There are any number of pretty
materials that are figured this sum-
materials that are figured this sum
Spring and Summer. The voiles,
silk and cotton, and the chiffons are
absolutely bewitching and most at
tractive when combined with plain
Georgette or wolfe. The one illustra-
ted here is extremely simple, the
sleeves, collar and vest being of flesh
colored voile, and the dress of
quaint design in black and white.
There is no trimming; no trimming IS
necessary. The shaped tunic and
plain jumper are features of the
mode.
Linen suits, Elton jackets, of more
tailored effects, are being shown
great deal with organdie waists,
collars and cuffs, and even set-in
strips of the organdie. The lines are
all straight and the effect very plan,
for the colors are bright, and other
wise the result would be gaudy. Vests
of striped pique are very popular.
Sometimes there is high collar of
net, tied in big bow in the back,
with a jabot falling in graceful folds
down the front. These are worn
with the silk ports suit, as we'll as
linen, pongee or wool. There are
hints as to the increasing vogue for
flannel suits and, especially, separate
skirts, but they will be cut on very
straight lines on account of the con-
servation of all wooden materials.
About Separate Waists
The separate waist is thing OF
beauty, whether it be of handkerchief
linen or batiste, wash silk of satin,
or of Georgette crepe or chiffon.
Sometimes they are deliberately
beaded or embroidered, sometimes
they are combination of materials
and colors, sometimes tire are clus-
tiers of hand-run tucks. AT any time
they are fresh and becoming, great
addition to the wardrobe of the
woman of fahion and tate. II they
match the uit or skirt, there may be
touch of contrasting color in, for
intance, the tie. Loose lines, baggy
sleeves, cut body and sleeves in one,
are thenewest fads of Dame Fashion.

OF a COnilagratiOn
PROCLAMATION.

10 Al citizens Of NetU York Cttu:
THIS city Is menaced by the i'm
minent possibility OF a gem
eral conflagratlon. Recent
severe cold weather combined with
the shortage OF coal, has produced
a condition OF gravest menace.
Those buildings which, because Of
sprinkler protection, are usually
counted upon TO serve as fire bar
riers, are now virtually without
such protection.
The Chief OF the Fire Depart
ment has sounded the warning
that ~ to these conditions
moderately heavy foil of snow is
added, making it difficult 70 move
heavy fire fighting apparatus, n
disastrous conflagration would be
not only possible but highly
probable"
The unprecedented concentr0
ton OF population and values in
New York City might easily turn
such Il conflagration into a dis
Rster Of the first magnitude.
As Mayor of the City Of Now
York l hereby call upon all
citizens to cooperate for the
public safety by the following
means:
I. To have a sufficient number
Of water barrels and fire buck
or other form OF fire extinguishers
ready for immediate use in all
buildings.
2. To provide adequate emer-
ueney watehmen service in all
buildings until the present crisis
is past.
3. To ascertain the location Of
the nearest fire alarm boxes and
to study the directions for send
ing in alarms.
4. To observe especial care
with matches, lights, heaters and
all other forms Of fire hazard.
5. To have all waste paper.

bustible rubbish put in metal
containers and removed from
