Hnes-and this arrangement of the ma, iterial is borrowed from a Paris de signer who introduced it early in the season. Aside from this small, vagary. it is plain. The bodice has plain back and surplice front filled in with flesh-colored georgette. One side of the front is extended into soft girdle, finished at the front with handsome beaded ornament. The long sleeves have a. turned-back frill of velveteen. The small muffier collar is separate affair that swathes@, the neck in soft folds and buttons, at the side.

 Satin gowns reveal that their design CTS are more or less devoted to draped skirts, the model pictured being among the simplest of these. In this frock smock of satin, split to the waistline at the left side, is covered with sun- burst pattern and points made of silk braid couched on. The design is an Aztec inspiration pure and simple and a long girdles of satin ending in tassels repeats 1t. A plain turndown' collar and deep cuffs of the satin are impor- tant details in this frock and help to account for its distinction. .''> = '''' '.

Just how 1t happens has never been explained, but it happens every little while that certain style seizes the at- tention, simultaneously. of women all over the length and breadth of the land. Merchants wake up some morn ing to find that apparently every. woln- an has made up, her mind over night that she wants one kind of fabric, one particular color, one style: Just now 1t seems, that every, woman wants a velvet gown, in addition to the satin frock for which there has been a uni EersaT demand It seems that the shops saw this wave of demand rolling In, and that designers and manufac- turers were prepared for it,
 Designers require. supple materials for frocks and they have determined on chiffon velvets in very wide widths, and the finest grades of velveteen, as best suited to their purposes. These are used for afternoon and evening dresses. The heavier grades of vel veteen will answer for suits, but the more flexible stuffs are liked for every thing and chiffon velvets are in such demand that they bring very high prices. The best grades of velveteen are hy no means cheap. By way of recOmpense. velvet frocks are very simply designed and fussy decorations are conspicuous by their absence on them; so that the minimum of goods Is required. if.
 These points are apparent in the pretty frockj for afternoon, shown at the left of the two pictured here. It is of wide, lightweight velveteen in marine blue. " This skirt has six round plaits set on, at each side widening the hip

1t may be that Ensign Goodwin has
drawn more finished pictures while ex-
ecuting in quiet studios, but one would
never imagine that the character por-
traits Of famous and Infamous men
were drawn while travelling at eighty
miles an hour nearly a mile in the air
and while the machine was doing its
necessary capcrs. The drawings en-
body no superhuous lines. However. the
art OF caricature lies in the elimina-
ton Of all but necessary characteris-
tics, and although the joval cheeks If
Joffre and the furry foliage<of Hughes
are represented by but few lines. En-
sign Goodwin believes it was more of a
task to make the single lines from q

Is reflected in some journal, and every
class in the community has its favorite
journalistic dish. Paris would no more
support an American newspaper, except
for American visitors, than it would
patronize an American quick lunch
counter. There are two or three French
journals Of wide circulation that vary
from the standard; but, as one French
gentleman expressed it, they are not
journals, they are commercial vent
ures. Whether it is Socialist or Royal
ist or something between, the French
journal Is. first Of all, q purveyor Of

journal spreads what we should call its
editorials all over its front page.

"The exact figures for the banat as
whole are difficult to ascertain with ac-
curacy, but 900 Rumanians, I65, 900
Germans, $1,000 Serbs and few thou
sand Magyars Is as near an estimate as
it has been possible to make. AS any
conceivable frontier would include a
fair proportion Of alien population,
some compromise Of nationalist senti.
ment must be the solution. 1t is clear
ly case in which the fullest political
freedom and citizenship must be fur
nisAed to any section Of the population

must hope for an amicable solution.

important territory already surrounded

Germans and Magyars are in much
larger numbers and in more compact
geographical groups. It will perhaps
be more difficult for those who have
been declared enemies during the war
to settle down amicably under Ru-
manian rule, but for one group to be
under the government of the other is
geographically unavoidable. This scat
tering and intermixing of nations has
been one Of the disastrous conse-
quences Of imperialist violence Is it
too much to hope that in the future.

this very intermixture may prove a
source of better international under

For two or more separate races and
languages to live side by side, under
the same government and with mutual
advantage, is in itself, each time it is
achieved, a step toward that sinking
of national barriers in the greater
boundaries OF international cooperation
to which we all look forward as the
only final safeguard against future
wars.
"A survey Of these problems enforce )
one of the lessons of the war; it is de-
sirable that the whole of Southeastern
