FOR SPRING Wear
Tailored Costume Blouse Among
the Prime Favorites.
More Of the Waist-Length Models Will

When a woman finally discovers
that style rules are meant for her
general guidance only, and not meant
to be followed blindly, she is on the
road to being really well dressed. I'm
fortunately, few women, except those
who are interested in styles from a
business standpoint, make this all-im-
portant discovery. Every style sugges-
ton is taken literally and copied or
followed exactly, and the result is that
femininity en- masse is most inartis-
tically CARRIED.
The separate blouse is garment
that is amenable to many interpreta-
tons at the present time. The long
costume, or pep1um blouse, is an ex-
tremely interesting member of the
blouse family, but it would not be
safe or true to say that it is to domi-
nate the line. Unquestionably more
of the waist-length models will be
worn. For this reason the long blouse
is distinctive and usually attracts at
tentiOn.
In the lineup Of waist-length blOuses,
sheer cotton voiles and organizes are
especially popular fabrics. White or

Tailored Costume Blouse for Spring.
blouse of checked, striped or figured
cotton wolfe is dainty for late spring
or summer wear.
Some long costume blouseS are
shown made Of sheer cotton materials,
but this type of garment is especially
smart when a rich material is en-
ployed. Filmy chiffons and nets,
georgette and lace, are employed with
excellent effect.
Severely tailored costume blouses
are smart, and when combined with
tailored skirts of blending or con-
trasting color help to make up de-
cidedly chic frocks for early spring
street wear.
The blouse shown in the sketch, a
model reaching almost to the knees,
would be charming made of tan or
sand-colored satin, with collar and
cuffs of navy or green taffeta, taffeta-
covered buttons, and sash belt of
taffeta or black velvet ribbon.
This blouse may be worn with a
black skirt or with one of navy taf-
feta or satin. The result will be an al
together suitable frock for early
spring street wear.

Getting Better.

1t is rather common practice to believe that
the other fellows job better than and it is
just as common practice to believe that some
other place is blessed with better privileges and
developments than the town in which we live
This is because we fail to get true perspective
on ourselves and our environs. Things get
ting better with us, right where we live wherever
we live only do not notice the growth that is
slowly but constantly going on right under our
eyes, And in country on the face of the globe
are things getting constantly better than right
here in America. Thank God for America.
Go back to the little town with which you
were familiar say Is years ago-most any town.
1t has new tapestry brick station, the streets {
are well paved no splitting signs are conspcu-
ously displayed bubber fountains the public
square, there is new public library, several good
buildings have been erected along the main street.
nearly all the old store fronts have been replaced
with broad expanse of plate glass and in all the
show windows well arranged and well lighted
displays of goods indicating that the towns peo-
pie are buying more and better things of all the
useful things of life.
Yet ask any native who hasn't been out OF
town within Is years and he will tell you that it is
getting worse-much worse.
The improvements in this town have come so
gradually that the inhabitants have not noticed
them. And this is about the way with the world in
general.
and our surroundings at one fell swoop.
Usually man first improves the food that he
eats then his clothing, then the furnishing of his
house. and then the house.
With better house he demands paved streets.
water works, sewer system, electric lights,
The merchant is quick to see that there is a
demand for better goods and carries a better
stock of goods.
The exhibition of this better stock has edu-
cational effect in creating desire and raising the
purchasing standard of the whole community.
With better individual life the spirit finally
extends to better administration of their public
affairs and on down to the fundamentals OF COM
munity economics
Wemay not be quite to this last stage yet.
but we our way.
The world is getting better. Push the good
work along. WISCONSIN STATE JOURNAL.
