LECTURE SERIES
BY THEOSOPHIST
Opening Address Tonight
AT Cable Hall-Other
Meetings

The appearance again in Birmingham
Of Eugene w. Munson, national Theo-
sophical lecturer for the United states
and Canada, will be pleasing to those
who heard the distinguished speaker
several years ago. Mr. Munson comes
for another series of lectures under the
auspices of the Birmingham lodge, Theo-
sophical society tonight, tomorrow night
and Saturday afternoon.
THE New International Ship OF State"
will be the subject for tonight at $
o clock. Mr., Munson believes that the
opportunities now awaiting the world
have been FASTENED by the great war:
and that on account of the great les
sons learned in the world struggle some
of those ideals once held as visionary
are here at our doors to be translated
snto practical living. Mr. Muuson
strives OF make occultism practical on
the one hand. and on the other to show
that the mundane affairs of our political
and business life can be made spiritual
and beautiful.
Mr. Munsons subject for Friday night
will be "Reincarnation,' and on Sat
urdav afternoon at $50, THE Portals of
| the Past"
| Mr.. Munson says that science and
/ occuitism stand upon the same founda-
ton, proceed by the same methods, and
aim at the same goal. He does not dis
agree with ideas concerning science, but
rather with the misconceptions prevalent
in regard to occutism.

There are women who prefer these large
designs, brilliantly worked out, on coats
rather than frocks. They feel. and there
is good reason for feeling, that one be-
comes tired of an over-ornamented
gown.
The woman who has many frocks in
her wardrobe, who buys half dozen
gowns for the same occasion, may in
dulge in a Florentine frock with large
scrolls of squirrel or leather. or other
applied fabrics, for she may wear it
when her inclination suggests; but the
woman who must depend on one or two
gowns to see her through a season is
compelled to choose more severe clothes.
In the end she gains.
In a topcoat, however, one can be more
liberal, if the coat is to take the place
of fur. If it is to be for the motor
or for rainy weather, simplicity is the
only choice, but as a substitute for peltry,
the highly ornamented coat of the Ital-
ian Renaissance is a lovely thing that
no woman who has the price need re-
sst.
The fur coat is an expensive luxury
these days If it is long, 1t is too heavy
for walking, and if it is short it does
not protect the knees. so because of
these disadvantages women prefer some
other type of coat when it must cover
the whole frock-
Therefore velours and vervet nave

her news.
The other man the sharp-eyed indi-

"The man in the seat behind you--the

carrying out Lanvin's idea Of applied
material against material to give color
and depth.
The sketch shows a most ornamental
coat, which is worn by well dressed
woman over thin frocks to afternoon
occasions of gayety. 1t is of blue We
lur, very soft and supple, and lined with
Roman gold checked satin. The designs
are done in black plush, outlined with tar
nished fold thread. They cover the sur
face of the coat in scrolls and diamonds.
There is deep yoke, full sleeves and a
full hem which protects whatever drap-
cry the under frock may have.
The coat is serious enough in color TO
be worn on the street when one walks;
it is warm enough to be protective in
cold weather; and it is long enough to
cover any kind of thin frock in which
woman wants to dance. take lunch or
play cards.

Latest Ideos From Porls And New York On lomans APPAREL
And Helpful Suggestions For The household
BY ENfiE RLrTEnHousE
The Old F1orentine Method of Cover
ing the Surface of a Coat With
Ornamental Designs Has Been Re-
vived by Artists Who Have Done
Much to Resuscitate the Fashions
of the Renaissance.

New York,-The inspiration for trim
ming coats and even frocks with flori-
ated designs came from Paris. 1t was
tried out by a half dozen of the best de-
signers over there last summer.
1t came into fashion with the revival
of leather, which was once a famous
method of ornamenting clothes in Great
Britain, a fashion borrowed from Italy.
One associates the floriated designs
with the Florentine fashions. and it is
quite evident that the designers who
brought out this italian ornamentation
had gone to the wealth of old portraits
which have come down from the Renais-
sance.
I.anvin, an artist, who showed one OF
the best Paris collections, used the Flor
entine designs in fur on velvet frock
She also used the designs in leather on
long tunics or topcoats.
Other dressmakers took up the idea
OF cutting pieces of fur and putting them
on velvet or satin as an economical
method of using up odd pieces of peltry
This movement, which was revival
from the Italian Renaissance. brought
out a wealth of ideas in surface orna-
mentation, especially for coats, short and
long 1t was really new TO this gen.
Grafton. 1t gave the designers a striking
note of novelty TO work up into some
thing expensive and lovely.
1t is not work for the amateur. 1t
4 is not the garment for the poor. The
average income does not encompass
coat or frock covered with Florentine
work: but it is an idea that can be
copied in small way by those who are
keenly alive to new movements in dress
and who become weary of a constant
repetition of the same thing in clothes.
