thickly together. A One-piece effect,
the frOck has q surplice bodice with q
tiny inset vest of organdie and cuffs
and collar also of organdie. The skirt
has rather long swinging hip dra-

A very smart frOck Of plain white
g%eOrgette combined with small polka
dot pattern in coral pink formed an
attractive frock the other evening at
an informal dinner at one Of the sub

like mushrooms during the past two
seasons.
Mrs. Arthur Capper, wife Of the
senator from Kansas, wears a cos

Higher Levels Are Permanent

Professor Irving Fisher re marked some weeks ago that readjustment waits because we keep on waiting for it, we have now waited in vain for over six months. :" Secretary Redfeld observes that little by little the industries of the country are taking up the slack, and the country is settling down to the assurance that matters are get. ting stableized. /" His statement is so recent that it may be con- strued as the aftermath of the observations by Professor Fish CT. The two viewpoints from eminent sources, emphatically uphold the conclusion that the higher levels" are here to stay.
 And whether we wish it or not prices of all commodities. rail road, street car fares, lighting. rent, clothing, luxuries and re- cessities of all kinds, including the moving pictures and the theatres. are bound to be stable ized at the worlds apex of prices.
 Another few years may bring about economic, industrial and political changes that will lower the price levels. Such a period was realized several years after the Civil war. But the stern re. ality of the present might just as we'll be faced, because the facts are incontrovertible, and there isn't scintilla of reason to hope for anything in the nature of lower costs of living under the present existing conditions. Trim your sails accordingly.
