Almost every suit or wrap this win

some instances the fur trimming forms
almost half the garment. A lovely

trimmed the coat at the lower part,
extending up one-third of the coat
length.

Often georgette crepe or chiffon is
used In combination with the velvet.
The crepe or chiffon, for instance, may
form the sleeves and part Of the bodice
while the velvet Is used as part Of
the bodice and skirt. Or the crepe
may form an overtunic, as in the case
of one lovely model, and the underskirt

FEWFREAKSTYLES
Dignity and Simplicity in Both
Line and Color.
VcIvets Much In Evidence for Indoor
Gowns as Well as for tho
Street Frock.

It is interesting to note that there
are few freak styles in women's wear
ing apparel or absurd creations to
catch the attention this season, put
rather a determined effort to express
dignity and simplicity, both in line
and color.
The street frocks and suits, says
fashion writer, are of somber, neutral
tone, and often trimmed with fur IN
harmonizing or contrasting tint. Inc
fur forms the collar and cuffs, and
when used on the skirt or tunic is
generally put on in patches.
Take, for instance, smart street
frock of beaver color duvetyn with
it's patches of beaver, trimming the
panels that hang from the waistl1ne
at the back and front. The cuffs and
| high collar are also of the beaver.
The lower part of the bodice is inset
with square of embroidery in brown
and dull gold thread. Directly at the
front and back underneath the two
fur-trimmed panels Is a larger panel
of the material, decorated at the hem
with cord tucking.
Another extremely smart frock is
of brown velveteen, trimmed with nu-
tria. The model Is made with long
tunic, which is slit at the sides and
! trimmed at the edges with nutria. The
tunic is set on to loose-fitting back,
which is drawn in slightly at the waist
line with sash, which encircles the
waist, crossing at the front and loosely
at the back, the ends being finished
with tassels. The large collar, cuffs
and the draped toque are Of nutria.
| Velvets are being used more and
more for indoor gowns. as well as for
the street frock. Many beautiful din
ner gowns are fashioned from velvet

There is little doubt that the people
are spending their Liberty bonds.
The world has gone on spree that
Is manifesting itself in many ways,
Of which lavish expenditure is but
one. The worst Of 1t Is that the
high cost of high living increases the
high cost OF living. When spenders
are free and easy, traders make
prices with a facile pencil. Those
who part lightly with their easy
money make hard buying for those
who must part sparingly with their
limited funds. He who spends on
luxuries without accounting causes
himself to pay more for necessaries~
To all other mutations we now add the
initiation of money made cheap by
holding it cheaply.

The strides made by the chemical
Industry of the nation. as shown m
statistics issued by the American
