CRoWNLESS EVENING HAT
Wide Draped Band of TulIe Encircies
Head and Is Worn Low over
the Forehead.

The very latest thing In evening
hats Is the wide draped band of tulle
which encircles the head, is worn low
over the forehead and is guiltless of
anything resembling a crown, unless
perchance a single layer of sheer tulle
may be called q crown.
AS rule it is the couture itself
which forms the crown, the high
masses of curls and puffs which are
now so extensively worn by all women
filling the entire space left open by
the draped band. Often the bands are
ndorned at the side with a sweeping
osprey, or by a long, curled ostrich
plume. In the latter case the plume
Is attached under a bow of the tulle,
and sweeps down over the shoulder to
curl around the neck. Bands Of tUhle,
tied in broad Alsatian bows at the
back. have also been noted at some
of the recent smart first nights at the
theaters. These evening headdresses,
with few models in lingerie hats or
garden hats, alone reflect the Alsatian
influence.

CHIC WHITE FRocKs AND HATS
White Gowns and Headeear in the
Midst of Busy Season;
Demand Is Heavy.

Wholesalers of cotton dress fabrics
are predicting one of the biggest white
seasons the country has seen for some
time. This assertion is based not only
on the large advance business in white
goods that was done for the current
season, but on the duplicate business
that has come in from various parts
Of the country, in spite Of the "off
again, on again" state Of the weather.
Oee of the things that are cheering
up the wholesalers is the attention
that is said to be given to white gar
ments by some of the Weather wom-
en-. One authority has it that well-to-
do women are wearing white frocks
for late breakfasts in the public din
ing rooms Of prominent hotels. and
that they are wearing white hats To
match. The growth Of the general
vogue for white millinery. by the way,
Is regarded as a sign favorable to the
general use Of white garments this

FRANCO u. S. PACT
AGREE ON ALLIANCE TO MEET
GERMAN AGGRESSION,
Treaty Will Be Terminated When Suf-
ficient Protection Is Assured
British Will Aid.

Paris, July 5.-The texts of the
agreements between France and the
United States and France and Great
Britain have been given out by the
foreign office. The agreement with the
United States cites articles of the
peace treaty prohibiting Germany from
terrifying either the right or the left
bank of the Rhine or assembling forces
within thirty miles east of the Rhine
and provides, in case these provisions
do not assure France proper security
and protection, that the United States
is bound to come Immediately TO the
aid of France if any unprovoked act
of aggression is made against her by
Germany.
1t is provided that the treaty shall be
submitted to the council of the League
of Nations, which shall decide whether
to recognize it as an engagement in
conformity with the league covenant,
and also provides that the treaty shall
be submitted to the United States SEN
ate and the French parliament for
approval.
1.-THE guaranty pact" as the Partisan
press calls the treaty between the
United States and France, gives gen.
eral satisfaction here All newspapers,
however, point out that, according to
the text of the instrument, America
goes farther than Great Britain does
in the treaty between France and that
country.
By article l of the American-French
treaty ''the United States of America
will be bound to come to the aid of
France Immediately" it is pointed out,
while article l of the AnglO-French
agreement only says: England con-
sentS to come" etc.

HATS MATCH FROCK
Successful Costumes Have Head
gear That HarmonizeS.
Arrangement Brings About More
Pleasing Combination and obvi-
ates a Clash.

The skirt of the tailored street frock
is usually long. When there is an at
tempt to keep to the familiar short
length, it IL made uneven of line by in
SET panels or by an upward slant from
front to back, Or the skirt may be
fashioned with panels at the front and
back or at the sides which are slightly
longer than the main part of the skirt
The jackets of the 1919 tailored suits
are varied. Some of them are straight
and are put on over the head like a
seaman's blouse. These are very smart
and youthful looking. Sometimes such
Jackets are embroidered with tape or
soutache in contrasting color.
Many of the long coats are also en-
broidered in similar style. These coats
are simple of line, made with long
sleeves and straight back. They are
especially liked for wear with the silk
afternoon frocks and may be worn
over gowns of linen. organdie or other
sheer summary materials.
A wrap sometimes replaces the coat
or jacket, but these manteaus are
difficult to describe. They are new
in shape and all-enveloping and are
made of duvetyn or silken material or
fine serge.
Many of the summer frocks for after
noon wear shown at the more exclusive
houses have hats to accompany each
costume A well-known couturier stat
ed recently that in designing a toilet
the Importance of the accompanying
headgear should not be overlooked;
this should be In harmony with the
costume. And it must be admitted
that this arrangement brings about a
greater degree of harmony in the cos

otherwise perfect, married by the hat
worn with it.

CARE FOR THE COSTLY BOOT
Footgear Should Be Kept on Trees;
Adjust Them to Fit the Shoes;
Attention Necessary.

- Boots and shoes are an important
item of the toilette, for no one can
look well dressed who wears bad or
unsuitable fOotgear. But oh what
price are all the boots and shoes nova
DAYS. All the more reason to take
great care of those which we have.
Boots and shoes should be kept on
trees, and it is important that they
are adjusted to fit the shoe, for If too
loose they are useless, and if too tight
they strain the sewing and cause it
ultimately to tear.
If girl cannot afford trees for all
her footwear she should tree them in
turn, keeping the toes well stuffed out
with paper In the interval.
Boots and shoes, If wet, should be
freed and slowly dried, never put very
near the fire, or in a too warm cup
board, and any leather footwear, In
Guiding that made of patent leather,
and not often worn, should be slightly
creased and kept in cool place.

FR0CKS FOR SMALL GIRLS
Pink and Blue chambrays Come In
Dainty Models and Popular
for Summer.

Frocks for the small girl this sum-
mer are both quaint and practical. The
ginghams are att actively combined
with plain one-tone materials, or have
collars, cuffs and chemisettes of sheer
white materials. Plain pink, blue,
green. yellow or lavender chambrays
are also made more dainty and becom-
ing by collar and cuff sets of white
organdie, dimity, batiste or linen lawn.
One house which makes a speciality
of children's clothes shows numbers of
quantity charming frocks made from
imported dimitieS, chambrays and
swisses.
Two of the models in an exhibit
were made of chambray, one being in
a clear, apple-green tone. There is
plain short-waisted bodice belted with
a twO-inch band piped with black. The
belt is embroidered with cOlOred posies
and green leaves. The sleeves and
neck are piped with black. Another
frock is of pale-pink chambray, with
the sheerest of scallOped white collars
and cuffs. The frock also has short
WASTED bodice and very full skirt is
attached to the plain little bodice, the
joining line being defined by piping
of color. Embroidered pOsies, uneven
in height, rise from the piping and en-
broidered lines to about One-third the
bodice length. The skirt is also
trimmed with embroidered lines.
Dotted swiss is essentially a fabric
for children's wear, especially that
weave which shows the tiniest of en-
broidered dots. Two dainty models re-
Gently noted were made of imported
dotted swiss. One of the models was
made of the dotted swiss trimmed
with black velvet ribbon and narrow
frills of plated Organdie.

AMONG NEW LINES OF GLOVES
Exquisite Shades Of Brown, Approach
ing French Kid Products Are
Particularly Noteworthy.

Progress is especially noticeable In
the new lines of high-grade cape
gloves, says the Dry Goods Economist.
The utmost care is exercised not only
in the selection of the skins, bur also
in the attention given to each and
every step Of their fabrication.
Various experiments are being made
In the production Of new coIors In or
der to take full advantage Of the
strong vogue for colored leather
gloves. Exquisite new shades of brown,
which approach the rich col0rs Of the
fine French lid products, are particu-
larry noteworthy. They are shown in
the ever-fashionable wrist lengths, as
well as in the newer gauntlet, strap
wrist and semi-mOusquetairs styles.
The development of these newer
styles, however. Is limited some
what by the shortage Of the betteh
grade Of real cape skins.

ALL KINDS OF SHOE BUCKLES

Shoe buckles of cut steel, of silver.
gold, gunmetal, bronze and jet are sold
for street wear. Silver and gold
buckles are deliberately set with rhine
stones, Amethysts, sapphlres, emeralds
and rubies, and shoes thus adorned
are worn with afternoon and evening
costumes.
A pretty fad is the matching of the
stones in the shoe buckles and back
combs and in the ornaments used on
the evening gown.
For morning wear. cut steel buckles
lead in popularity, with bronze a close
second for brown or tan pumps.
Buckles of bronze beads are also
shown for wear with brown and tan
pumps.

Labor Element Not Pleased.

Though some labor legislation was
enacted, labor men are not pleased
with the outcome. The platform in
dorsed the principles of the federal
war labor board, one of which was the
eight-hour day. 1t was impossible to
enact an eight-hOur bill. even with an
amendment to exempt many important
industries. In final attempt an
eight-hour bill with a referendum at
tached was put through the senate.
Labor leaders refused to accept this
proposal, declaring they had no funds
to finance referendum campaign, and
if it were defeated subsequent legis-
latures would for years to come use
the result as an argument against
eight-hour legislation. The platform
also indOrsed the principles of equal
pay for equal work by men and wom-
en-, but the only bill on that subject
was killed.
