The New Spring Coats

Coats of the Cape and Dolman type devel-
oped on slender, straight lines seem to be the
most favored for Spring wear. Of these, the
models with loose flowing lines, straight far
ing backs and belted in front sections, are to
all extents receiving the greatest amount of
attention. Silks and satins, heavy crepes and
novelty weaves in silk, vary the range of the
varieties on exhibition.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE ART OF
LACE MAKING

~ ACE making is as truly fine art
as painting. sculpture or any other
- means OF Individual expression.
Old lace. hand wrought by patient
workers OF medieval times is as full
of the sentiment and spirit of those
times as Is any other form Of art.
When the war broke out in 194
America knew very little about the
making of lace, and cared less. There
was always plenty of lace to be had
from the looms OF Europe. But with
the beginning of the war lace-making
in Europe came to a standstill except
in Spain and Switzerland and so great
was the demand for lace that 1t was
difficult to get any supply even from
these neutral countries. So the en-
terprislng American manufacturer set
to work and the results of the expert
ment are surprising. Very beautiful
machine made laces are now made
right here in America and the pat
terms include not only the established
lace patterns of tradition but also
many new and interesting designs. An
exhibition of American made laces in
New York City last month was q
revelation to many people who thought
that Europe was the only country
'ha. could produce handsome lace.

table at reduced price because they
are mussed or slightly soiled. Some
times really marvellous blouse can
be picked up because it has become
too mussed to sell at regular price.
The dry cleaner-or perhaps your own
skillful fingers can make 1t fresh and
perfect in no time. 1t pays to search
for these chances. Sooner or later one
finds something well worth while.
Dark Chiffon Waists Meet Style
Requirement
For wear with your winter tailored
suit on ordinary afternoon occasions
you will need a blouse of chiffon or
Georgette crepe in a shade matching
the suit material. This gives the
whole costume effect that is desirable
when your Jacket is removed In a
restaurant or other indoor place
There are hosts of these dark chiffon
blouses in the shops and prices run
between six or seven dollars and twen-
~ dollars or so. A very good blouse
of the style referred to can be had for
seven-fifty or eight dollars but it will
be waistline model; the tunic and
sash models cost more. Two admir-
able blouses of chiffon, for wear with
tailored suits, are pictured. One Is OF
dark green chiffon over a guimpe OF
bisque chiffon and the embroidery
combines silk thread and tiny beads.
Fullness is added by pleats and tucks
and the chiffon guimpe is specially
good idea, softening the effect OF the
blouse and giving It more substance.
The second model is Of pale tan chif-
fon with back and front panels of
brown chiffon. the. front panel en-
broidered with brown floss and tiny
bronze beads. Hemstltched bands of
brown chiffon on the sleeve and
and tan buttons on the panels add to
the trimming. DO not make the mis-
take of wearing dark chiffon blouse
directly over a decollete brasslere or
camisole. This looks sadly Ordinary"
for the cheaper chiffon blouses come
without Innings and their thinness, over
nothing but underwear, has a dis
tressngly second-rate effect. There
should always be n separate slip or
lining of flesh tinted chiffon unless the
blouse itself has chiffon lining OF
some sort.

CLOVES The DIAL J.
~ CHRISTMAS C1F I T.

in the war and many OF the women
glove makers did munltion work all
during the war and the rougher work
and handling of munition materials
has so affected the hands of these
workers that they cannot take up tho
delicate task of making gloves now.
on top of all this Fashion, the incon-
sequont, decides that gloves are a de-
sirable and indispensable detail of
dress. SO scarcity of gloves on the
one side and an increasing demand for
gloves on the other have been bound
to drive prices up. And there you are!
The really ideal Christmas glove will
be a twenty-button model; that Is, a
glove extending well above the elbow,
and intended for wear with a sleeve
less evening frock. Sixteen button
lengths will answer for the frock that
has a bit OF sleeve or whisp OF
tule over the top of the arm. Twelve
button lengths are for afternoon
frocks that have flowing, three-q quarter
sleeves and you will note many OF the
fur coats this winter have sleeves that

like the Inconsistency Of Fashion to
add gauntlets to street gloves when
material for gloves was so scarce and
high priced anyway; but gauntlet
gloves one must have to be quite a la
mode just now. The new gauntlet
glove is made Of heavy white kid
with gussets of black kid let in

Christmas Dollies Walk and Talk

"a OF only does the modern doll say
~ Mamma" and Papa" in enchant-
4 ingly natural sounding syllables,
but when you take hold of her hand
she goes bye-bye" with you down
The street. That Is. she walks-actual-
ly walks--along beside you. In the
anatomy OF this remarkable dolly is
hidden away a rocker device which
makes her chubby legs move at the
nip In quite natural imitation OF the
human art OF walking. For little
girls who love best cuddly baby dolls,
too young in appearance to walk any
way, there is new doll with bisque
arms and head and a mop of soft
curly halr--real hair that can be
shampooed IL you please! And can
you imagine any greater fun for lit
tie girl than to give dolly a regular.
soapy, lathery shampoo? Another in
teresting doll can not only stand firm
ly and squarely on her feet without
assistance from anybody's helping
hand. but she has a still greater ac-
complishment: She sits down grace
fully without topping over backward
as most dollies do when asked to take
seated position. The costumes on
the dressed dolls are delightful--not
fussy affairs Of blue satin operdraped
with lace but really truly lttle-girl
frocks made of checked gingham, dim
ity. soft linen and sheer patiste--just
like the play and "for best" dresses
that real little girls wear. There are

SAUTOIRS GIVE COLOR TO
BLOUSES

N o you know what a sautoir is? II
III not take pains to find out lmme-
~ diately and procure one OF these
very fashionable accessories which are
the rage just now. A sautoir is a cross
between necklace and a necktie. a
broad. fiat band of bright colored
beads ending In a large flat bead orna-
ment The fiat band goes around the
neck and falls down the front of the
blouse, the big bead ornament com
ing Just below the bust. The colors
of these bead sautoirs are wonderful,
some OF them as artistic as fine Byzan-
tine decorations or the rich tones in
paintings by old masters. They give
infinite style to a simple blouse front
and show effectively when the coat is
thrown open.
