Washes Will Be Worn-What Is
Transparent and Made of Cot
ton Will Be in Fashion

pear In magazines and books, espe-
cially the former.
Why, oh. why, isn't there a fashion
censor in every publishing house?
Can't they realize that most of their
readers are women and that they scoff
at a. heroine who. through the fault OF
an author or an artist, wears impossi-
bic clothes at impossible moments?
She becomes as utterly worthless to
the reading public as a woman who
would wear a ball gown in the morn
Ing and Jersey sport frock to a ball.
How can one prevent a million or
more women from feeling that a
smart. fashionable woman, who Is
thrilling you with her exploits, loses
prestige and power when the artist
portrays her unfashionable, awk-
ward, absolutely unknown to smart
society in everything she wears and
in every gesture she makes?
Women readers ask who Is to be
believed-the man who creates the
heroine or the artist who portrays
her?
The stage has awakened to the fact
that 1t should not permit its people
to wear clothes that do not belong
to the role. and out Of that conscious
ness the American stage has learned
to produce settings that are worthy
Of the playwrights.
Chance for the Tunic.
When will the world Of fiction
realize this? When will the maya
zines obtain artists who know some
thing Of the types they draw, of the
clothes the heroine should wear, of the
atmosphere in which she lives?
Perhaps those who illustrate fiction
would throw up their hands in des-
pair and terror at the idea Of follow
ing the changes Of fashion. The fash
ion illustrators are certainly kept to
their guns doing this.
For instance see the way that the
tunic forced its way into the best
simmer clothes.
Perhaps this Is the reason that
America took up what is known as
American clothes for this summer.
She saw the chance to put ruffies.
frills, lace. ribbons and roses on her
froclEs. 1t is all in line with the
movement toward coauetry and the
only and most vital objection to 1t Is
its cost.
1t is well that we are not at war,
for the public would look with dismay
akin to terror at the idea of indulg-
ing in old fashioned American cos
| tumery during three months Of war
work. Now that we may filter about
the country with our minds at ease,
there is no reason why We shouldn't
take a fling at loneliness.

DoraIdina in New Dance.

That terpsichore is undergoing a

Requires Care at Home.

OF course there are those who prefer
slim, clinging lines in colored jersey
cloth, taffeta or satin. They regard
the introduction of frivolous styles as
a burden.
They do not look with kindly spirit
on the fiuting iron and the washtub.
They feel that life is a bit too short to
be searching for fresh organdy and
muslin frocks every day. for impec-
cable ribbons and laces. They feel
that much vitality is wasted in be-
slowing meticulous care on the daily
arrangement of coquettish and frivol-
Gus lingerie.
They may accept these American
clothes for an occasion, to be donned
when one is in a party spirit; or they
may use a slip of satin or China silk
as a foundation for a translucent
fabric that fiutters like a butterfly over
the figure.
There are other women, and espe-
cialIy those who do not live in great
cities, who will run half the way to
greet the incoming swirl of white and
pastel clothes in thin fabrics.
One would think that the French
and American designers who invented
the outstanding tunlc and the wide
fiounce for this summer. as. a con-
trast to the sheath skirt, did 1t with an
eye to the recrudescence Of muslins;
but It is difficult to believe that the
French designers ever take muslin
gowns into consideration.
In that country lingerie frock IL
something exquisite. costly, hand
made. 1t Is ceremonial.
The French have never been able Il
grasp the idea that on this vast con-
tinent women of most slender means
make up their summer wardrobes o.
such fabrics. They would throw W
their hands in despair at the idea o.
such extravaganza. They could no
fancy their people in the rural districts
INDUCING in organdy. bingham. linen
lawn, cotton net or sheer muslin
They would think the world had gon'
mad.
II must be admitted that the kline
of summer apparel that has como II
with the tunic Is extravagant. So IA
as the reporter has summarized thes
clothes, there is nothing to be said OIL
the side Of economy.

emit from what we have been wearing
az a Vatican shepherdess is from

The long. sinuous. sensuous, snake
like lines continue. but the new move
