FASHION SHOW
 IS ATTRACTING MUCH ATTENTION

A most beautiful array of dinner and dancing frocks may be seen at the fashion show at D. M Reads which opened yesterday and will con tinue throughout the week with sev- eral additions and changes. The old tea room, prettily decorated with palms and handsome lamps, with the brilliantly clothed models everywhere in the room, makes a most inviting place for the women of the city, who are cordially invited to come there and see the exhibition.
 One of the most attractive gowns on display is a pretty black satin with long drapings and narrow under skirt The sleeves and sash are of maline and the bodice is embroidered with beads. On one side is a large Amer ican beauty rose. The Victory shade, so popular now, makes up anothe. beautiful gown. The sleeves are en- broidered with while silver beads American Beauty, so closely related to the Victory shade, and worn by many of the younger debutantes, is the color scheme of an extremely pret- ty dinner gown. It has the big black ostrich tip at the Corsage and narrow box pleating,s with fringes on either side at the bottom of the under skirt, which carries out the old, yet popular style.
 There are also some dainty white taffeta dresses embroidered with large red roses, and blue crepe meteor and georgette. The majority of the
 dresses on display have the round
 neck and buttons on the back. Some
 are narrow at the bottom of the
 skirt, while others are quite full.
 The Junior department has some really attractive children's dresses Some are of pleated chiffon with taffeta and others are of georgette There are also very practical schoo
 dresses of ginghams. The pretty ne. gliges made up of dainty material are other attractions at the fashion show. One is made of gold and white satin striped taffeta with chiffon | sleeves, which is very pretty
