The well-dressed woman knows that
it is in detail that she a prove her
right to the title. Even last years
frock can be given a very %up-to-the-
minute air with a becoming new veil,
new neck accessories or a girdle Of
decorative value. Any n of these
aid-de-camps will work wonders in re-
j~uvenating a costume. Take, for in
stance, the girdle. The plainest Of
dresses becomes interesting at once
when one is added. The Importance of
the girdle in this years fashions was
eXempliied the other day in one of the
new plays, in which a young actress
ore the plainest dress of white crepe,
which had a girdle that was turned
once at the left side and the end fin
ished with deep silk fringe. 1t made
the costume, and the ensemble wa
stunning.

Only Ono Aviator Has Reached Forty

All this amazing science of war fly
ing is in the hands Of boys and youths.
Rarely do we find a successful air
man 40 years old. Lieutenant Colonel
Piccis of Italy, with a score of seva
enteen airplanes brought down to
date, is the only ace in the world
who has reached this age. On the
other hand, fully a score of celebrated
fighting aces are under the age of 20.
1t is a young mans game. and solely
by the experience and inventions of
these young men will this Important
arm of warfare evolve and become
perfected. = Lawrence La Tourette

The Stage Woman's War Relief is
a large charity with many branches.
Among its activities is a committee
which has charge of the making of
w%ind-proof vests for aviators and 9TH
err fighting men who find it difficult
to dress so as to keep warm. These
vests are made of old gloves and pieces
of leather and are warmer than
sweaters. 1t is said they are a great
protection against "beasties' that are
sure to assault the soldier. Gusts of
wind annot get by them.
Everyone who has old kid gloves to
spare should contribute them to the
army or learn how to make the vests.
The Stage Woman's War Relief has a
large light loft, installed with electric
sewing machines, where the vests are
made. Many of the gloves are sent
in already cleaned-and this is a great
help-others are sent to the cleaner.
Then they are cut to form fiat pieces
of leather. These are matched up for
size and color. After they have been
pressed out they are basted together
and stitched on paper patterns.
The reverse side of the vest is made
of canton flannel or other cloth, pro-
vided with a practical and roomy
pocket and then the vest is neatly
bound with braid. Leather book COW
ers and leather postcards can be used
in these vests, as well as gloves, and
some interesting-not to say amusing
vests result from the use of these.
Any sort of disable leather may be
Communicated for this purpose-pil-
low tops, table covers and 300 covers.
The leather must be firm and whole,
n contributions are doubly welcome
when they come in clean.
1t is easy to understand that better
vests can be made where large con-
tributions of leather are received and
the pieces can be matched up, than
otherwise. Also hen the women making
them become expert. Anyone wishing
to do something useful in almost any
community al undertake to accumu-
, 1918-07-25

late leather for this purpose. Through
the schools a great many gloves have
been gathered, the pupils getting con-
tributions at home that r brought to
the teachers and sen by them to the
collector. Stores will sometimes make
contributions of old styles and clean
ers give gloves that have never been
called for by their owners The col
lector may place her materials through
the Red Cross or send them to the
Stage Woman's War Relief at IS West
Thirty-fourth Street. New York.

The problems of the makers of cor
sets are many and difficult, but the cor
sets of today are marvels of skillful
designing. In the first place those who
create corset styles must understand
thoroughly the various types of figures
and they must undertake to make each
one of them shapely without the sac
rfice of comfort. This Is not at all
easy; for the too-slender mi must
be given pretty curves and the fat
woman must have hers smoothed out.
Besides, women demand corsets that
are light in weight and have few bones
or steels. Fashion DEGREES that wom-
en- shall be So carefully corseted that
they look uncorseted when they are
dressed. The contour of the figure
must conform to beautiful lines.
The new corsets are made of hrm
but very flexible materials and with
the fewest possible number of bones.
They are nearly all very low In the
bust and give perfect freedom TO the
diaphragm. There are equally good
models In front and In b~ack-laced
styles SO that each must deter
mine for herself which Is best suited
to her figure.
The corset Is the foundation Of sue
cessfui dressing and should be fitted
with the greatest care. We have all
met women who achieve the best style
in the simplest frocks and suits. 1t is
all a matter of beautifully balanced
lines and one must begin Mt the begin
ming to possess them. and the begin
ming is the corset that fits and shapes
the figure. All good d~ressmakers I'M
derstand this.
A front-laced and a back-laced cor
set are shown here. At the left the
corset designed for o slender figure is

Evening Gowns Passe.

Evening gowns are now almost a
lost art. Few women are buying them.
In their place we find afternoon frocks
of lace Or net or point d'esprit, COM
bined with satin. Above all, however,
come the pretty soft chiffons in neu-
ira shades-beige, navy, black, mauve
and gray. These clinging chiffons
round out afternoon and evening occa-
sions. For the older woman they are
the type of frock par excellence.

Length of BIouses.

It is evident that all blouses that
bear the stamp Of fashion viii extend
halfway between the waist and knees.
These blouses are often sleeveless
when worn under coats. They are built
of colored chiffon that does not match
the gown, or of linen, albatross, silk
and wooden jersey and corded silks.
Every effort is being made to put out
Of fashion the blouse that ends at the
waistline and cuts of the figure.

a trife higher il the front and consid-

model designed for a fuller figure
which is shown at the right. Sorsets
for stout women are very low in the

been properly fitted and the contour
of the figure nfade as nearly correct as
the corset can make 1t the way of the

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT

There is a choice this season in the
line OF the silhouette. We may dis.
avow curves entirely and wear coat
or dress that is straight from neck to
hem, or go to the other extreme and
choose Il bodice or coat that Is fitted
In to the figure closely, or stop any
where between these. Half way be-
tween seems to be the happy medium
that Is most generally becoming. But
the pOssessOr of n very good figure
may go even farther than the semitit'
ted coat with fine effect rs is attested
by the coat suit which reflects this
place of the style as shown In the pic.
ture above.
This braid and button trimmed suit
Of serge sets snugly to the body above
the waist where the lines of the coat
flow out into ripples ut the back and
sides, but are almost straight ut the
front. Parallel rows of narrow silk
braid, stitched across the sides and
back Of the coat, end in n row of small
bone buttons ut each side. This Is u
novel placing of braid which Is char
