Public Forum

TO the Editor: feel that you do
not intend TO do an injustice to the
owner Of the house referred to in
an article with big type on first page
of Thursdays Journal, headed:
Houses withdrawn from rental drive
people from Salem"
The inference to be had from the
article would be that because of a
proposed advance Of 25 percent the
owner is profiteering and that is not
the fact in this case. l happen, as
real estate agent, 10 know the rental
history of this property for the ten
years / have been In the business.
think the owner is unfortunate
in owning the property for that per-
iod. The record would show that the
average rental for the ten years do
not net as much as the lowest inter-
est paying liberty bond. and that at
even the advance in rent proposed
and later withdrawn in favor of SELL
ing the property 1t would not pay
over the average liberty bond rate.
Unwilling to retain the property
and continue the state OF affairs, the
owner has decided to cash In and
pay the obligations against 1t (seven
per cent? and cease keeping up and
maintaining the property and paying
30 per cent of the gross rental in
taxes, besides the care and supervis-
ion of its rental, etc,
Is there any wrong in that, or
must he continue to hold the proper
ty for the accommodation Of the
people. If posing as philanthropist,
he might be called on to do so. There
has been quite little said and pub
llshed about profiteering on the part
OF the landlords. | doubt II there are
any, IL you win allow an Investor 8
per cent on his Investment above the
proper allowances In handling the
property, and surely 10 is reasonable
that an investor should have what
money il will rent for; grant that and
who Is the profiteer. The renters have
been the proflteers for several years,
and are not yet extinct even with
advanced rent dates.
Lots Of properties to my knowl-
edge, have not paid over two per-
cent net to the owners. Why did
they allow 1t? Simply because they
could not help themselves II was
either take what they could get or
let the house stand empty

.Appliqued Motifs
OF Patent Leather.

A MONG the trimmings patent
leather is used in the form Of
appliqued motifs, as we'll as to make
small bows to trim frocks of both
cloth and velvet. An interesting
suit in dual tone brown gabardine
is ornamented with motifs of black
patent leather The skirt is very
narrow, but the jacket flares at the
sides. 1t is lined with a glossy
black satin, glimpses Of which are
shown inside the standing collar, the
cuffs and at the undulating edge
Of the basque fullness.
| have just seen two interesting
suits made by one of our foremost
American designers i'll which patent
leather is used in remarkable way
to form the trimming. A country
suit Of rose-colored homespun has
very narrow bands of patent leather
encircling the bottom of q yather
long box coat, as we'll as the bottom

lines in order 70 show the full value
of the gorgeous fabric.


Plaid still holds an .importan,
place in the foreground of fashions.
This is surprising, because anything
so striking usually passes very
quickly in the realm Of dress. At
the extreme right Of the page is
one of Bernard's new fall suits de-
veloped in plaid and plain wooden.
Combinations such as these are be-
ing emphasized in the autumn col
lection Of clothes. A band of the
plain cloth at the bottom of the coat
shows an elaborate braided design.
The bottom of the sleeves are fin
ished in the same way.
There is also a strong tendency
to combine two colors in one suit.
For instance, suit of black or very
dark blue velours may. have the bot
TOM Of the coat banded in this way
with broadcloth or velours of dis
tinctly different color. The contrast
is softened, however, by a great
deal of trimming on the plain band.
This trimming may be braid en-
broidery or bands of patent leather
} applied with embroidery stitches.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1920-08-29

of the skirt. There are at least
dozen of these bands. They are
worked over with heavy gray yarn
to form a design of black and gray
The skirt of this model is somewhat
fuller than those intended for town
wear and is set onto a yoke at hip
length.
A second suit is of midnight blue
velours banded in the same way
with patent leather, which is worked
over and over with a heavy tan silk
to form checkerboard pattern CT
black and tan.
A strong fancy is manifested at
the present time for pleats ar
ranged in groups of ten to twelve,
with plain spaces of equal size in
tervening. There are dresses on
which the trimming consists of in
serted pleated bands surrounding
the skirt in rows. Many of the new
printed silks are worked up in this
way. The effect is charming. The
pleats break the pattern and give a
decidedly new effect. Model dresses
show both bodice and skirt trimmed
in this way, the frock falling in

new square hanging satin mantles
The satin is of the very heavy quail
ity which is being used for street
wear this fall. The trimming is
moleskin a fur which will vie
with squirrel in popularity this Win
ter.
Great stress is being laid on satins
for wraps of all sorts. The satin
of 1920 is striking example of
the wonderful progress that has
been made in the silk industry. One
never would suspect it of being even
a distant relative of the stiff and
lustrous satins of bygone days. In
past years satin coats were consiG-
cred suitable for elderly ladies only,
while a wrap of to-day's satin is
youthful.
Lining silks are quite as hand
some as those from which the gar
mentS themselves are made. There
are beautiful Chippendale prints and
Mikado Jacquards, both of which
have radium backgrounds. The
Chippendale is printed in multi
colors in Japanese, butterfly, leaf
and flower motifs, while the Mikado

spring and summer. A skirt with
its hem ten inches from the ground
is smart, yet not extreme.
At the lower left of to-day's page
is a redingote suit developed in
green velveteen. 1t has a pleateo
skirt and the coat is trimmed with
skunk fur. In this model we see
the beauty and grace of the suit
with very long coat. In past sea-
sons women have declined to accept
the long-coated suit, saying that it
had a tendency to make one look
older. This, however, is not true
of the really long coat. Nothing
could be more girlish than suit
such as this one, giving, as it does,
the appearance Of q one-piece dress
with an underskirt.
Directly at the right of the suit
just described is another example of
the redingote type. Brick-red broad
cloth is the material from which it
is evolved, and the trimming is
Kolinsky fur.
An Ideal Dress
For Street Wear
A T THE top of the page is shown
one Of Bernard's newest and
most popular blue serge dresses,
which is very much like the red
ingote suits in outline. 1t gives the
effect Of skirt and a very long
coat, although it is really a one
piece dress. The trimming consists,
Of bands of tailor's braid Of the
same dark blue hue as the frock. 1t
is an ideal dress for street wear in
the autumn.
Braid as a trimming has found
considerable favor in this autumn's
fashions. Dressmakers arc show
ing great originality in their meth
DDS Of using this trimming. Not
content with braid alone, they have
stitched it in silks of contrasting
colors and applied it in ways that
give the effect of new and elaborate
embroideries. Often the braid is
embroidered by hand.
AT the right of it is one of the

A Classic Touch

n pie toilettes. In fact, the
tailored costume of almost
classic style is now tremendously
fashionable with its long, half-fitted
Jacket and slender skirt, the latter
either plain or pleated. A costume
Of this type is more representative
of the real Paris fashions than any
thing Zouave, African, Czecho-Slo-
wax or Egyptian. The Parisienne,
therefore, may rightly claim that not
all women in France are extrava-
rant or are all of the Paris dress
makers producing extreme effects.
Fashions are often misrepre-
sented. and Through this misrepre-
sentation ore might gather that the
taste of the present-day woman is
for clothes that are snowy and ex-
travagant, rather than those that
are beautiful and simple. Many
people, when viewing the new fash
ions, are inclined to talk of the
things which are extreme and un-
usual, rather than those that are
simple and refined, which latter the
best dressed women buy. The wom-
en- of Paris, even more than those
Of America, are misrepresented in
Ais way, so that it would appear
that the Parisienne is a slave to
every delirious creation that the
French couturier may put out. A
mannequin at the races wearing
some bizarre costume will be i'm
mediately proclaimed to the world
IS wearing the latest Paris fash
ion, when perhaps this dress is the
only one of its kind seen during the
whole season in Paris.
Simplicity Is
Much Sought After
WHAT more simple and econon1i-
cal than the tailored suit or
blue serge dress, both of which are
now and have been for some time
prominent In Paris fashions? What
moke refined than the models which
the leading dressmakers create for
their own private customers? That
this simplicity is greatly admired
and much sought, regardless of the
publicity attached to the bizarre
styles, is proved by the fact that
certain houses in Paris who cater
entirely to private trade are sought
IN roundabout way by purchasers
Of models.
One house in particular that has
a great Paris following and who be-
cause of this refuses to sell to manu-
facturers or dressmakers, preferring
to keep their models exclusive, can
and do get from their private
trade from 1000 to 5000 francs
each for their simple silk crepe
dresses made without one stitch Of
embroidery, lace or trimming of any
character. Even the hens are only
hand rolled, and the dresses, which
are little more than slips with pend
ent cascading panels or handker-
chief points, are without lining,
gulmpe or undersleeve. Some of
these models have not even a hook.
They slip on over the head and a
sash ties around the waist. Yet for
this simplicity and grace the dis
eliminating Parisienne will pay so
per cent more than for a dress with
trimming, which lacks the cachet of
simplicity, individuality and perfect
cut.
Tailored Suits
With Fur Bands
FOR the autumn there are charm
ing tailored suits in redingote

Lovely Colorings
In F all Fabrics

DRINTINGS in multi-colors are
introduced with success into new
fall fabrics, which are both brocaded
and lame. Among the silk voiles
and Georgette crepes are lovely
things showing the combination of
metal brocade with hand printing
in colors. Dresses made from these
look exactly as IL they were hand
painted, so exquisitely are the color
ings distributed over the surface of
the metal and silk brocaded pat
terms. 1t could not be possible to
give the same soft color gradings
in a weave.
Two lovely dresses made from
these materials have just arrived in
America. Both have cascade ORA
peries, one in the form of an apron
effect and the other a side panel
tunic These materials are, of
necessity, made up on very simple

| ailored Suits
With Fur Bands

FOR the autumn there are charm
ing tailored suits in redingote
style trimmed with fur bands.
Sometimes these redingotes have
pleated fullness let into the skirts.
Simple fall dresses also are being
shown in both redingote and apron
styles, and new wraps are in per-
fectly simple outline.
IN dresses many variations of the
fedlngote appear. They may be
made entirely of cloth and trimmed
with braid or with slip or under
dress of satin and long redingote
OF cloth. Many such frocks have
nigh collars which button tightly
about the throat and are faced with
contrasting cloth.
Autumn skirts are somewhat long
er than those worn during the

should lead to a large distribution
Of these detachable garnitures.
They not only lend bright note Of
color to a sombre gown, but trans
form it completely, thereby making
the gown render a double service.
The fan is an important item of
the evening toilette, for it lends
beauty and color to the costume. as
well as rendering service. The ever
popular ostrich feather fans are
quite as much in evidence with the
new evening gowns as they were
last season. For these both the
lcurled and uncurled fronds are used
