own color, or in harmonious contrast
to 1t, it is very good; not as good as
satin or silk jersey. but commendable.
1t may be ornamental, II one can adopt
that type of blouse, and even trimmed
with beads. which Is a debatable form
of ornamentatlOn on a separate gar
ment, but not impossible for certain
types of women.
Because Of the adoption of uniforms
through the war there is strong re-
crudescence Of the tailored linen
shirtwaist for women, especially in
horizon blue, shrimp pink and dead
white edged with color. These have
tucked fronts, long plain sleeves, regu.
latiop armholes, turnover cuffs with
link buttons, and the collar Of q
French student Of the Second Empire.
Women have found that rolling
collar with slight bit Of starch. worn
with q cravat, is an attractive neck
line. Only the very young woman
with slim, smooth neck can attempt
the high turnover collar, either starch
ed or soft. Below a face that shows
the marks of time this collar is impos-
sible.

t. When the French designers made
the peplum blouse and then sat back
in twatchful waiting for its success,
which took long to come, they created
something that was very worth while.
American women see the light today,
and they grasp with eagerness the pos
stbilities of this outside tunic blouse.

set Of women that there are other
types of blOuses. Nothing could in

body, and they choose all their blouses
after the tunic pattern, whether for
railroad suits or for service with .
separate skirt under a fur coat.
1t Is sometimes permitted to tuck the
back of the blouse under the skirt, pro-
vided there is front panel that drops,
| aprOn-wise, below the waist. and an
ornamental belt which runs from each
side of it to the back. This is the
most ingenious compromise between
the new and the old blOuses.

Fabrics are now chosen for these

blouses, sent from France and copied
in this country, are excessively smart
and better liked by certain well-dress-

The German soldier also regards the

to a discharged German soldier in
Rengsdorf. the German army, early in

purchased for the unusually large
exodus to the South, and they will ap-

the next four weeks. when ones
thoughts turn to the rehabilitation Of

There is no more paucity Of inven-

France and America have both done

women could be trained to regard the
blouse as something fatal, unless well
chosen, they would go about the busi-
ness of getting together half dozen

essary when walking on ice. They
would not buy geOrgette because it is
the style. nor would they choose gal
loon embroidery, shoe-lace braiding or
brass buttons because the designers
had chosen to exploit these caprices.

The part of blouse that is very
often fatal is the collar. There are
few women who can stand more than
two types of neckline. A~rwoman
should not rebel against this verdict.
She should accept it and thus elimi-
nate trouble. She should expert
ment with blouses that do not carry
either one Of these necklines. She
must remember that no blouse is
worth its price il 1t hasn't the kind Of
collar that offsets the neck1ine of her
coat. She must also take we'll into
consideration the difference between a
blouse which is to be worn as a part
of costume topped by a fur or cloth
coat. and one that is merely a shirt
waist and part of a tailored suit.
These are not all the requirements
for success in buying blouses. A wom-
an must have, or must acquire, true
knowledge Of the juxtaposition Of fab
