Next the Super-Six made $50 miles at
the rate of l0l miles an hour. Such
speed even for a single mile would
send many stock cars to the junk pile.

Too little praise has been bestowed
on the American women who went
into the field overseas with the Amer

more credit than others because they
deserve it, but even they nave been

BUILT ON STRAIGHT LINES
New Garments Really Ars 10 Have
Only a Little Of the Barrel"
Effect Promised.

Designers fiirt with the public fancy
season after season by introducing
styles that are out of the ordinary;
that differ radically from the ones In
use, and that have received general APP
prevail. The first offerings for the sea-
son Immediately to come have not es-
capped. Practically every designer has
brought out his or her own interpreta-
ton of the barrel overskirt, but many
Of them admit already that It Ii merely
one of the novelties Of the season and
that 1t is not taking" to any great
extent.
The straight-line frock. according to
the Kansas City Star, refuses to be
ousted. The two styles that seem des-
tined to hold sway for fall and winter
are the simple straight-line dress and
the more fitted redingote. TUNES,
overskirts and pleated effects, especial
~ when accordion pleating is used, are
seen everywhere. but almost invariably
a straight silhouette is adhered to.
Wool jersey cloth again will be a
reigning favorite next season for utility
frocks. Beige and gray are said to be

NEWEST HATLNE
Really 0eMates Little From the
Present Style.
Designers Have Not Intended That the
~chapsaus 10 70 BE Worn Further
Back on the head-erims
Roll Backward.

II you have read or heard about the
new off-the-face style Of hats that have
been launched in Paris you may be I'M
der the impression that as a result of
this vogue We are going to wear our
hats farther back ON our heads. Some
how, the hat that is tilted backward
stili looks little outlandish, and IL
may seem to you AZ II II would be very
hard to give up the style OF wearing
your hats well over your forehead.
However, these new hats are not &C.
tually worn back of the forehead. The
idea is that the brims roll backward
so that there is less shading Of the
face. but the band of the hat takes the
same position now that II has for many
seasons, only that the hat Is placed per-
fectly straight In order to give the right
effect to the falling back of the brim.
There is no longer any inclination of
fashion to tilt the hat on one side.
The new hats simply were not made
for that sort of thing.
When all Is said and done, 1t Is
really the hat that determines the
way we do our hair. and as long as our
hats rest on our ears the same as
usual most Of us will go on wearing
our hair much the same as usual. A
pompadour effect in front would be
quite out of the question so long as
the brims of hats rest across our fore
heads. 1t Is only when hats merely
rest on our heads in front that we can
attempt much pulled or elaborate
front arrangement.
off, when this tendency to pull ouI
hats down on our foreheads gives way
to something else. 1t may be that tn,
poke hat that had only a small vogu,
last season will return In true pok'
form-that is, with front brim tina
really flares and very short bacl
that actually shows the hair In back
a hat that really is more of bonnie
than a hat.
But il this type Of hat is comm
eventually, then the present off-the
face shapes are merely a depression
because they are placed well on tn
head. The only thing is that the brir
rolls back. And this roll-back bril-
, Is something that will sell many yard

The New Paris Neckwear.

Cape effects In broad multi-tier col
lars, with high directoire stocks, are a
dominant note Of the present neckwear
fashion In Paris. Short-sleeved
guimpes are also extensively worn and
this fashion promises to be carried
over for general use in the coming sea-
son.
Both white and colOred neckwear is
favored, white organdie and heavy
white linen, with delicate rose pink
crepe being extensively employed.
Fichu effects are also good and
berthas are coming steadily to the
front.
