The opinion OF we'll informed traders,

with respect to the heavy selling Of the

Portable position OF the shorts In most

PLANTATION of the movement in most quar-

successful at first, but as the buying
power Of the shorts developed, It was
found that little stock was available. and
that tho only way In which 1t could be
obtained was through the bidding up Of

in slightly by a sash passed twice around the figure. Unless your frock is loose at the waistline you cannot hope to present modish silhouette, this year. It is absolutely impossible to secure the perfectly flat lines at front and back which fashion ap- proves, with a snug girdle close to the tigure-unless your figure is built like the proverbial lathe and has no curves anywhere! One of the easiest ways for the home dressmaker to achieve this desirable flatness of line is to attach the skirt of her new frock to d very soft, slimpsy silken bodice at point several inches below the nat ural waistline and then to draw in the soft silk with a rather heavy
 loosely tied sash. Exactly this effect has been accomplished in the frock with bodice of brocaded crepe; and skirt. sash, cuff and collar of plain crepe de chine-the plain crepe navy blue, the brocade a shimmering com blnation of blue, green and orange. Not only does the skirt weight down the lose, soft bodice; but the big cuff weights down the sleeve and the ef- feet Is exceedingly graceful and tre- mendously-oh, tremendously smart, The skirt is s-slightly gathered in at the ankle and further weighted with a substantial cord. The sash is really a pleated drapery that is looped under and attached to the skirt. This frock

keeps its rounded neckline though a wide collar has been draped over the shoulders of the bodice. The fasten- ing of the bodice is invisible--at one side of the front but a row of tiny buttons down the center back sug- gests a youthful button-in-back style. Pink, With Paradise Ribbon For A
 Young Girl
 An enchanting little frock, exactly suited for comI nencement week at West Point, is the model of pink chin chilla satin-a new satin with a won derful softness and a tiny ridge in it's leave, something, like a soft crepe and wide paradise ribbon in a scroll pattern of pink and heliotrope. This beautiful ribbon has been most clever ly used to suggest a whole bodice though presumabl ly the strips of rib bon are attached to an invisible foun- dation bodice of thin silk or net The sleeves are of ribbon to the elbow and below that are elbow-high, buttoned cuffs of the satin, the edges corded all around and the buttons infinites- simal in size. The frock has more than the usual allowance of sash, for besides the sash of rose and helio- trope ribbon there is fringed sash end-or panel-hanging at one side toward the front, The underbodice has a waistline. but 1t shows only un- der the arms, and the pink satin panel-back and draped bodice-front

trunk over night
 There is nothing very radical-so far as new styles are concerned-in the pictured foulard. Leave off the looped drapery that hangs in a bur moose effect over the skirt, and you have the simplest kind of little fou- lard frock-nothing new about it at all except it's newness and freshness. The burnoose drapery, of course, is the important style feature; it gives the simple frock its whole character. The skirt is very narrow, but cleverly introduced pieats under the looped drapery relieve any possible effect Of tightness and give the wearer room to walk properly. This foulard frock is in a soft shade of tan with cream dots placed very close together The vestee is of cream batiste and filet lace and softly draped shawl collar, outlining the vestee all the way down is mod ish feature. The sleeves are long enough to wrinkle slightly on the fore arm. No long sleeve, you know. must be fitted so tightly to the arm that 1t will "ride-up' if the arm is lifted. The slightly wrinkled, mousquetaire effect is much better in any soft fabric like foulard. With this tan and cream frock is worn a smartly simple hat of dark red silk and net; the net tied in f1aring Alsace bow at the back.
 Waistlines Suggested; But Vaguely
 Four of the frocks pictured today have the almost unconfined waistline; the rniddy-blouse model is the most pronounced example of this new style; the smock model comes next; the frock with bodice of brocaded crepe has a sash that pretends to define the waist line; and the dainty pink satin frock with ribbon sash shows it's waistline only for a few inches beneath the arms. Even the ruffied frock of blue moire silk has no waistline to speak of, though the loose lines are drawn

trouble has been taken on this detail of the work. Who would think a mere waist belt of ribbon could be treated in so many interesting ways? |? Yet it Is these little daintinesses of detail that make simple summer cos tunes distinguished and different"
 The girdle at the upper left hand corner is made of pale salmon pink satin ribbon and has a "bebe" bow with squared off salsh-ends at the back Rows of shirring up and down the belt ribbon draw 1t into the desired width and both belt and sash-bow are trimmed with a lattice work of mar row Nattier blue ribbon, caught down under tiny bowknots. At the upper right hand corner of the picture is a girdle of white satin ribbon with sash ends that are intended to fall at one side, over~the hip. There is flower like rosette of knotted ribbon and the girdle' is shirred up and down, in groups of shirriny set about four inches apart. The sash-ends are rath- CT narrow and are Tipped with tassels. In the center of the picture is a pale blue satin ribbon model: the belt smocked and embroidered with little rose pink stars; and the sashbow is made of looped ribbon in star effect. Notice that the sash-ends are Of nsr- rower ribbon than the girdle-anu three of the pictured girdles show this effect.
 Below the sash in the upper right hand corner is very elaborate, two tone girdle for a dance frock. Pale pink and pale heliotrope ribbons Nave been used in combination and the girdle is draped up at one side by line of shirring set obliquely. A spray of chenille flowers is embroidered on the front in rose, heliotrope and soft green; and the sash-ends fall flatly, without a bow. One end is finished with 8 silk tassel: the other is bluntly rounded

and drawn in with shirring A digni- fled little girdle with a restrained sash-bow of knotted loops, and ribbon ends falling closely together. is pie tured at the lower left. This girdle is made of two shades of pink ribbon and a criss-cross over-pattern of knotted narrower ribbon holds the wide, crushed belt in position. These girdles are not built over crinoline foundations They are soft and light and are fastened by hidden hooks and eyes or snappers. Have your girdle sufficiently loose to give your summer frock the easy-fitting, straight-line sug- gestion that fashion now approves. It is very good idea to have two sets of "eyes'' for the one set of hooks or snappers, so that the girdle may be frightened or loosened at will; for sometimes one seems to have lost weight and skirt belts sag loosely, while another day everything one puts on seems snug.
 It is the easiest thing in the world to make a smart silk handbag now, when metal frames are to be had pierced with holes through which needle and thread are passed, to at tach the silk bag to the frame. Seven attractive bags of this sort are illus trated; and the eighth bag-at the loJ of the picture-is made of wide satin ribbon looped over ribbon wrapped bracelet which may be slipped conveniently over the arm. Both ends of the bag are doubled, to make deep receptacles, but while one end is straight across at the bottom, the other is pointed sharply. This gives the bag more style and interest. A cobweb design is run with silver thread in the ribbon and each "rib" of the cobweb is tipped by swinging ball of steel beads. A small metal ring holds the bag together at the top of the deep pockets and keeps their contents from spilling out. Some of

HEN one has said that the new silk frocks for summer are charming; one has only ;" told half the story. It is al most a platitude to say summer silk dresses are charming-they are al ways charming. Each new season brings it's new fashions and those fashions, developed in soft, clinging silk are invariably endowed with charm. After, the fashion has gone out of style--well. that is another story. But charm and interest the new modes--ila silk--always possess
 The new frocks this year are more than charming, they are unique. They have freshness, an originality that makes them quite unlike anything the icouturiers have offered before. They are hard to wear-a few of them but that only makes them more fas. cinating; and after all, there are plenty of models that will suit the woman whose conservative taste balks at any thing that appears outre and extreme.

The beauty of foulard Is that it may be worn al most anywhere, all summer long. It is not: too elaborate for an informal occasion yet it will do it's wearer credit among formal costumes of satin and lace-provided it is accompanied by very smart hat, gloves, boots and parasol. It may even be worn travel ing, or on rainy day, protected by a long topcoat. And it packs in trunk or suitcase to erfection-nothing like foulard to shake out it's wrinkles in half an hour after being immured in a

 Middy Frocks In Soft Silk

The informal lines or a linen middy blouse have been borrowed by Dame Fashion this year for her most formal afternoon frocks. One of these models is pictured; certainly unique com bination of skirt and blouse for dress up wear. The skirt is of satin in a new copper brown shade and the
 blouse is of white satin printed in a border design in the same coppery brown. The border has been effec- lively used in the fashioning of this
