Gray Georgette Printed in Blue and Blue
Taffeta Thinning.
Gracious Charm and Dignity
Exhibited in This Costume

The soft, transparent ma
terials which are the fash
ion nowadays for afternoon
frocks are enough to make
any woman appear lovely.
They enchance all ones
dainty charms and facial
beauty, and, inasmuch as
they are practical as well
as pretty, it behooves any
woman even of limited
means to possess at least
one frock of Georgette crepe
or indestructible wolfe or
chiffon. Some of the print
ed patterns in these fabrics
are simply irresistible in
beauty of design and color
ing. Some are in light col
ors, suitable for midsummer
wear, while others are dark
and conservative in colors,
yet smart in design. For in
stance, a medium tone of
gray MAY be traced with
dark blue, or q dark blue
may be traced in red or gray
or tan. Some such conser-
vative pattern would be a
wise choice for the model of
today's sketch, which is in
tended for dressy afternoon
wear through the spring and
summer. There is nothing
frivolous about the frock
however, but the combina-
ton of the figured material
with plain Georgette or in
destructible wolfe to match
and taffeta in the way sug-
gested, acCdmplishes a dressy
effect in a very practical way.
The plain material forms the
foundation skirt and waist,
over which. the figured ma
terial is draped. The deep
kimono armholes that drop
into the belt are finished
with a taffeta band. and the
tunic, which opens in the
front, is held together at the
knees by the point of the
shaped band of taffeta, which
confines the fulness of its
lower edge in soft gathers all
the way around. A bit Of
cream or ecru lace is eXhib-
tied below the wide crush
belt in front, and also as a
collar that outlines the fig
ured portion of the bodice
But the practical element is
evidenced in the plain neck
and sleeve line that is brok-
en- only by a tiny ribbon or
cord. lacing up the short
s!ashes.

THE MCDOWELL CONCERT.

A thousand ,music-loVers gathered
in the st. Francis auditorium on Sun
day afternoon for the piano recital
and Mcdowell talk by the widow of
the celebrated composer, Mrs Edward
Alexander Mcdowell The entrance
doors had to be closed TO keep out
the additional crowd that sought en-
trance.
Mrs. Mary Austin. the author, in
troduced Mrs. Mcdowell, paying a
tribute to her late husband as Amer
icG's foremost composer. and also re-
ferring to the great work that is being
achieved by the Mcdowell colony at
Peterboro, ~ NJ. Mrs. Mcdowell
spoke of that work at length, showing
what it has accomplished for creative
art in music, literature, painting the
past ten years. IT was an idyllic pic
ture she drew of the colony and the
life there. She emphasized the fact
that the architecture of the studios
and the buildings in which S15e, 900
has been invested was American in
character and fitted IN the environ
ment, doing in way what the Mu-
scum of New Mexico is seeking to do
spoke in superlative terms of the VII
sion and wisdom of the Legislators
and the others who have built in
Santa Fe a great Museum and Art
center. Nowhere else IN the United
States, yea, in the world" she said,
will the creative artist find such in
spiration as he will in this ancient
town. You are destined to become a
great art center. and you will find 1t
will pay YOU s a.
Mrs. Mcdowell commanded the
closest attention and was applauded
after every selection She gave
brief talk on the character, the origin
and theme Of each selection. The
simplicity ana dignity of the Wood
land Sketches" contrasted with the
majesty and artistry of the Sonata
The Majestic Sea Poems" were es-
pecially fine, while ITO a Water Lily"
"To a Wild Rose" and ITO an Indian
Lodge" among the Woodland Sketch
es eXemplfed how Mcdowell was a
domanicist and naturalist at the same
time, clinging closely to classic forms
and yet adding to It all touch that
was as truly American as is Indian
music, in which he found themes for
some of his best compositions
After tho concert Mrs. Mcdowell
was given an impromptu reception in
the Art galleries of the Museum and
won many hearts with her gracious
ness and the deep interest she took in
Santa Fe's ambition to become city
beautiful, with distinctive American
architecture and American art. SO
pleased was she with what she saw
and heard that she remained over I'M
til Monday afternoon. when she left
for oklahoma, where she will fill a
concert engagement. She had been at
Albuquerque and from there went to
,, FL Paso, but the lure of Santa Fe was
such that she doubled back from FL
Paso just to see the old city.

For quite some time the orchard fruit

THE NEEDLEWORk GUILD,
BY MRS. J. s. YESTERDAY.

The Needlework guild organized by
Mrs. Max Nordhaus and Mrs. c. E.
Porter last fall has been a most won
derful blessing to the needy children
of Albuquerque and Bernalillo coun-
ty. The hundred or more philanthro-
pic women directors who made the
organization possible through theii
gifts of new garments and assistance,
should all know just how far reach
ing and practical their work has been,
Mrs. Porter reported the plan of
the organization and the hundreds
of garments received in December
The old garments, which were re-
Ceived at the welfare station, were
carefully fumigated and repaired by
some of our most prominent ladies'
who gave freely not only of their
money but also their time and labor
so that the unfortunate children Of
the community might be kept warm
this winter. The money donated has
bought many pairs of shoes to keep
little feet covered and warm which
were found bare in some cases and
nearly so in others.
Many children have been given
new garments who never knew the
comfort of warm underwear or
night gowns before. Many sick moth
ers have been provided with sheets
and pillow cases who had never pos
sessed such luXuries,
Only yesterday, such a woman was
furnished with necessities, whose
husband was in jail and whose new
born babe had only an old rag to re-
ceive it. What a blessing the Needle
work guild was to this pitiful case.
And what joy for these worthy won

cases and know how truly more

Many similar cases have been re-
lieved
Have the members of the Needle
work guild thought of the gratitude
of the flu stricken mothers whose
children were thus cared for or OF
the relief of some who knew that if
they were taken their children would
not be cold but cared for by this char
table organization?
All cases have been investigated
before help was given. A record has
been kept and every care taken to
relieve the needy but not pauperize

ords are always available for the

A picture true, apicture real,
Remindless of the sore.
oh, painter can you paint for me
A scene of lonely pain
A soldiers strong and yearning love
Defying all disdain?
Draw not for me a dire barrage
From guns all belching flame,
Whose havoc wild and awful din
Made Thor retire in shame.
Nor do ! want a picture bold,
Touching the noble spot
OF gallant men; hearts brave and
true,
When going DER the top.
Not officers with peacock strides,
A strutting down the street,
Whose gallant fights mid danes
and lights
That caused the Huns defeat.
Or officers with hearts of gold,
Those men in spite of rank,
On whose ideals the soldier feels
lis fortune he can bank.
Nor birdmen who soar fancy high,
And eagles envy gain
In broad daylight, with foe in sight,
At night it's all the same.
Nor that which grewsome suffering
spells
OF wounded and the manned;
Nor of the rest, whose noble breast
Carries the shot well aimed.
