NECKLACE IS HUGE.
Ornament Is Brought Back as a
Pronounced Fashion.
STRINGS Of Pearls Allowed to Hang
Full Length Instead Of Being
Wrapped Around Neck.

The French designers have brought
back into fashion huge necklaces from
IN ornamental past. They are not
made of jewels, yet they are cost
V. and the supply Of fine ones rapidly
'iminishes. Once upon a time our
Iians bartered peltries for bright
ads. Such was the foundation or
.orne of our great American fortunes.
Today, declares a fashion writer,
there are women who vehemently de-
clare that they would barter their sec
ond year fur pieces for a gay neck
lace. They sell old clothes In order
TO get one of these much desired pos
sessions.
It is the hour Of the necklace. All
that has gone before Is as nothing to
what now exists. And, mind you, the
necklace is not Of precious stones.
There are few well dressed women
who wear any precious stones about
the neck except pearls. Diamonds hold
a place with some. but they are not
considered among well dressed women
as an ornament Of parts. Costly they
are, II is true, and in unique settings
Of carved platinum they have their
place. but the bare. bald. crude dia-
mond necklace Is a bit blatant for the
fastidious woman. She prefers pearls,
and so IL seems does every other wo-
man who can buy a string. from six
dollars up.
II the attention of the latter class
is turned toward the barbaric neck
laces, It may be that they will quickly
fall into disuse: but one thing is GER
tain, which Is that six dollars will 60
a short way toward purchasing one Of
the rare necklaces of the hour.
An individual designer Of clothes in
New York found himself the for
tunate possessor Of a half dozen neck
laces which ne had seen in an antique
shop, where they were thrown over q
string In the back of the store. He
purchased them. Then
the French fashion found its way
across the ocean into America. and the
designer attached his necklaces TO
costly gowns. either at the neck or at
the waistline, and they added to the
price he asked for the garment.
There is nothing fastidious or deli
cate about the new chains; they are
as heavy In appearance as medieval
armor. They are made of great rings
Or long, oblong links. and the plaque
Or medallion In which they end looks
ike a japanese crest. 1t is as full Of
rolor and as massive as the Egyptian
lewelry Of other centuries.
All Of these new chains are short.
The big. carved medallion rests on the
bust. They do not reach to the waist.
which is the desire Of the precious
stones. The woman who owns q mar
Telous string Of pearls now lets II
hang to its full length, you know, in
'tead Of wrapping II around her neck
several times, In royal fashion.

war. its restrictions, privations and
economies, is still a terrible memory
even to those who were born after the
Civil war.
1t Is rather a strange thing that some
Of the great centers have adopted tu
venile clothes that have been designed
and made by Virginia gentlewomen
ever since the war began Many o
youngster going to a party in a house
which stands on a pedestal Of millions
as well as others who trail into Cen
trail park with their expensive French
nurses, are wearing adorable frocks
from some little southern town, made
very often by aged fingers that have
kept the art of rolling. whipping
streaking and tucking with fine cam
brio needles and the thinnest Of cot
ton threads.
Children Lead Fashlona
The season has impressed upon
those who are interested In juvenile
clothes the fact that the youngsters
are sometimes well In the lead with
new fashions and that their elders
stumble along after them.
Once upon q time, when the world
was young and cruel, II considered IL
correct for children to be encased In
bones and costumed In brocade and
metal, heavy embroideries. long skirts
and stifiy-pointed bodices. II was
cruel to make youth the resemblance
OF age. Today we make age the re
semblance Of youth. In that lies our
virility, our enthusiasm and our san
ity. The children lead the way In
belts around hips. short sleeves,
smocked blouses, bodied hair, socks,
low-heeled shoes. straight lines and
uncorseted figures. Their mothers.
and sometimes their grandmothers,
initiate them.
II behooves women to look upon this
parade Of fashions with Interest, for
the little human flags running down
the path OF fashion today are blazing
the way for m.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. June 27.-At
least one aviator will visit West NIr-

from Elkins TO Kingw ood. 10 Kcyser md

II will alight at Elkins, but whether II
will land at tho other PLACES or merely
fly over them depends on the conditions

largely opt ional with Tao aviator.
