guess I'll have to be content to know
him just by his voice. It's about as
crazy sounding as the voice of Old

great deal"

SHOE STYLES FROM GREECE AND ROME
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE,
Correspondence Of The Star.

Correspondence Of The Star.
PARIS, August 30.-Suppose we talk
about shoes. There is SO much to say
that one could go on like the brook.
War shoes in France should make an
interesting chapter in the history of
war APPAREL history that will be
written some day.
They are such queer. frivolous. fu-
tile shoes. these wartime ones. They
were introduced in Paris in the very
worst months of the war and they
are universally accepted today. There
was a time when the American shoe
was thought to be the desirable one
In this country; now the woman who
wears American shoes feels herself
conspicuous because she is the object
of SO much attention.
Her long skirt and pointed toes
place her beside the visiting Arabs
Both receive the stares of those on
the streets. The Arabs are looked
upon more kindly than the Americans.
Their clothes are considered pictur-
esque: ours are considered amusing,
and possibly grotesque.
Not even the polite French manner
can keep the French woman or man
from glancing down at the American
shoes and skirts and smiling in a way
that creates rebellion or tolerant
amusement in us. The French do not
seem to remember that they once
thought the long pointed vanp the
highest form of shoemaking, and
then they laughed at the American
round toe shoe with it's Cuban heel.
Now they have exaggerated both
these features building them on the
original American idea until they are
out of all, proportion to the human
foot. To the Americans the French
shoes look as if they had been chop
ped off with an ak and then mounted
on stills at the back. The oxford is
the only sensible shape they have.
What was once considered a phan-
tasy of Hellstern, the famous boot
maker. is now an accepted model for
street shoe. The inspiration is from
the Roman and Greek cothurnes.
Whereas the civilized people of those
countries wore these shoes without
heels, the French women put a three
inch heel to tilt them up. There is
little difference between the sandals
for evening and those for street wear
Black. gray and beige are the three
colors adopted for all hours. The COL
ored evening slipper has vanished.
Metallic ones are not seen. Satin,
suede and patent leather are chosen,
the last even for the evening

FOR THE GIRL.

The sketch shows a party dress for
a girl of twelve or fourteen years
which may be made of crepe de chine
or georgette or of satin or crepe
meteor. The skirt is plain and straight
at sides and back and the front is
finished with half dozen wide, tucks,
the lower one matching the five others
In width and general arrangement,
but being in reality hem. The frock
buttons in the center back. Tucks
finish the short sleeves and wide
sash of velvet ribbon in black or
some dark rich color is tied about the
waist with f1aring bow under the
left arm. The side fastening Of the
sash Is trifle smarter than the usual
back fastening solely because it is
different
The evening frock that is not only
smart but serviceable is really the
wisest selection for the growing girl,
whose frocks hardly last through one
season without some alteration being
required.
The arrival of school days has. as
usual, directed attention to the matter

reach him. That's where he has the
advantage of us geese. You know
we can't dive. He could swim clear
across this river if he wanted to. And
he can swim so fast under water that
he can catch fish. 1t is because his
legs have been placed so far back
that he can swim so fast. His feet
are nothing but big paddles. An
other funny thing is that he can sink
right down in the water when he
wants to with nothing but his head
out I envy him that. 1t would be
a lot easier for us geese to escape
the hunters if we could sink down
that way"
HAS he got a bill like yours?"
asked Peter, innocently.

hold on to a slippery fish if he had

TALKING OF FASHIONS.

A short-sleeved fur coat caused
workrooms of one of the leading fur
riers not long ago: and there were
predictions that short-sleeved fur
garments might be usual and that
there would be a return Of the short
sleeve in coats and jackets this au-
tumn and winter. But this seems not
to be the case. Short sleeve blouses
and short-s1eeve frocks continue to
prevail We are gradually taking up
with the notion here as in France.
But our coats and jackets will be long
Of sleeve. which is something to be
thankful for, since gloves are increas-
ing in cost.
Whether or not we will use fur on
coats and jackets is something that
has provoked some discussion. It
seems now to be settled that there
will be comparatively little use of
bands of fur on the bottom of coats
and jackets, but fur will be used
rather freely on collars and to a large
extent also on pockets. Sometimes
there will be exaggeratedly large
pockets and collars Of fur on suits
that are otherwise untrimmed.
Angora and various soft fuzzy fab
RIGS will be used to large extent in
place of fur, even on the high-priced
suits.
Duvetyn will be the first choice for
suit fabric if you can afford it, unless
you go in for the rather strictly tai
lored effect, when there will be no bet
ter choice than some sort Of so-called
mems suitings that stand up beauti-
fully under the hardest wear and Ger
tainly do show to advantage the fine
points of skil'ful tailoring.
Orange velvet has como to town.
Orange velvet hats are to be seen
wherever there are smart women or
progressive milliners, and the only
question concerning this color is
whether or not it is becoming. If it is
you should surely have an orange
velvet hat if you wish to be in the
first rank of fashion.

Of replenishing the wardrobe Of the
younger members of the family. and
it is interesting to observe that the
MILDLY dress continues to be favor
lite. The regulation MILDLY frock of
navy serge, trimmed with bands of
white braid and the conventional en-
blems on sleeve and sometimes collar
as well, does not change hairs
breadth in style from year to year.
Separate skirts OF plain or plaid
wool material, with smart tailored
blouses of silk or cotton. make up
excellent school outfits. These sepa-
rate skirts, of course. may also be
worn with middies or smocks of white

Is to have a tremendous vogue with

HAMPERS ROAD BUILDING.
Southern Men Allege Lack of Rail

Good roads advocates and representa-

southern states-Mississippi, Arkan-

The seniors were honor guests at
a party given last night by the fresh
men at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Jack
Camp. The lawn and tennis court
were lighted for the occasion, the
party taking the form of a lawn
party. At the beginning of the eve
ming each guest was given bag of
beans and when asked a question
answered with the word beans. If not
answered correctly the person adj
dressed forfeited one of the beans
from his sack. At the conclusion of
the evening the beans were counted
and prize was given to the holder of
the largest number. The evening was
spent in dancing and for those who did
not dance the programs were arrang-
ed for fve-minute promenades. Dur
ing the evening punch was served
from a table decorated with the SEN
10 rclass colors. The refreshments
of grape ice and cake were served
from booths decorated attractively
with Maypole effects and streamers.
The party was lovely one and the
guests of honor fully appreciated the
courtesy. The senior class has been
delightfully."- feted and during after
years will with great pleasure look
back on the entertainments given
them, each in its place unique.
