There is a fashion for wearing an
overslip of silk or satin that admits
OF several overdresses to one under
Slip. 1t is most convenient and eco.
nomlcal, because, with one or two IN
dersl1ps, one may achieve a variety of
tollettes that will do duty for after
noon and evening wear. Satin sims
IN black, navy blue, dark brown. or
gray prove their adaptability to over
dresses Of printed georgette, voile and
similar fabrics and slips of plain or
shot taffeta in light colors make tbe
lovely foundations used in lace. net
ana all the other light colored sheer
dress stuffs. Besides being useful for
long overdresses the dark sims are
worn with hip-length and knee-lenetb
blcuses Or smocks.

gloves should be kept away from salt

should be kept dry, but away from

The signing Of the treaty, or the re-
fusal to sign it, will not be long de-
layed now. The reply of the allies to
the German contemporaries was
handed to the Hun delegates and they
were told their final decision must be
made within five days, or by June 80.
Several relatively small concessions
were made by the council of four. 1t
agreed to plebiscite in Upper Siesia,
subject to certain clearly defined con-
ditions. While refusing to fix the def
mite sum Germany must pay, it re-
quires the PREPARATIONS commission to
do this within four months of the sign
ing of the treaty. In most other re-
spects the pact was left unchanged,
but explanations were added to meet
the objection that the financial COM
mission was veXatious, inquisitorial
and infringed Germany's rights to CON
duct her own financial affairs. Ger
many's request for mandate for her
former colonies was refused, and it
was understood that her demand for
immediate admission to the league of
nations met like fate, owing mainly
to the strenuous objection of Clemen-
ceau.
