SOUNDS DOOM OF pE1TlcoAr
eioomers, kniekers and Combinations,
Also Hybrid Called Pettiboetsr,
SuppIant Usual undsrparment

Knickers and their kind have It all
their own way In these times. There
seems to be even an exaggerated ten
dency toward bifurcated garments and
apparently petticoats will soon be re-
duced to near the vanishing point, at
least so far as undergarments are con-
cerned. according to a Paris corre-
spondent.
Their place Is being gradually
usurped by pajamas, bloomers and COM
binations, with a curious hybrid gar.
ment called variously a pettIbocker or
a pedelette.
Not but what there are still plenty
Of pretty petticoats to be had. for con-
servatives must always be catered to.
Petticoats of the slenderest and most
demure proportions venture to display
themselves, but the exigeneies Of war
times have taken toll of frills and all
unnecessary fullness.
There Is wool shortage, c0nse-
Quently II is decreed that only lim-
ited amount Of wool shall be used for
q suit. Fashion makes virtue Of
necessity and DEGREES In Its turn that
the silhouette shall be sylphlike, which
makes petticoat superfiulty, not to
say an error, which brings us to the
conclusion that the only correct un-
dergarments are bloomers and COM
binations.
There are boomers for all occasions
from those for street wear of satin or
jersey silk In black and all the dark
md neutral shades to what might be
called evening bloomers of pink satin
with lace frills. Pink satin, pink crepe
de chine and pink jersey silk bloomers
may be had. They are made quite
plainly or with only the hemstitched
finish which is used SO much on the
better grade Of underwear.
