DAYLIGHT SAVINGS
So Are the Ideas of Local Business


 An effort is being made by the in- dustries of the city to resume the daylight savings plan this year.
 Instead of setting the clocks back, however, the plan is the start of the day an hour earlier. That is, the fac tory hours would be from to II and from F to ,. Of course, in order to make the plan pra acticable, it would be necessary to have trains and troll leys and all city activities conform to the schedule.
 "A preliminary canvass was made in the Stanley Works last week to get the sentiment of Stanley Workers. The vote showed the majority in favor of the daylight savings plan.

down the back. There are short sleeves
that carry shields. Such garments pro-
vide a good lining for summer gowns.
There is another French idea of econ
omy in utilizing foulard for a coat suit,
without lining: the American women can
accomplish that kind of frock at home
In these days when she can get machine
plating admirably done it is easy to
build skirt with slight trouble. The
jacket of foulard is like a tunic. but it
opens in front. and there is a sash at
the waist to hold il in place without the
aid of buttons. The absence of lining is
an asset in our weather. One can choose
a dark foulard suit for the street and a
white and black one for afternoon gayety
which simplifies life.
What is true of foulard is equally true
of Foile and georgette crepe.
Neither of these fabrics demand lining.
1t is necessary for something to be be
tween the frock and the corset. even
though We live in a modest epoch: this
sop to public opinion lies in the use Of
the French "maillot" or the American
version of it.
Fortunately for those who are main
tanning a vigorous search for good,
though reasonably priced, materials in
shops. the factories have turned out ex-

Nv ANNETTE BRADSHAW.

Even when the woods are gay with
flowers and we don our pretty summer
frocks we must be prepared for changes
Of temperature. AS these come with
but little warning, it is always advisable
to have at least one pretty wool dress
ready for the cool days of summertime.
Marked favor is always shown to the
tailored model Of navy blue cloth, for it
is practical, and, as a rule, becoming
color. The tendency toward coat effects
is seen in the dress at the right. This
is fashioned from a navy blue tricotine
with long revers of natural colored pom
gee trimmed with ball buttons. The full
length sleeves are cuffed in matching
mode, while a narrow belt of patent
leather is threaded beneath the reyers
and buckled in the front
The sailor hat of tan straw is faced
with blue and is banded with black pat
ent leather.
The other model is made of navy blue
silk serge, but in Difference to the de-
sires of youth and fashion it has short
sleeves. The turn back cuffs and flat
collar of rose silk have an added decora
ton of blue buttons.
The large hat has flower crown of
rose -colored poppies. and the under brim
is faced with rose-colored georgette.

SHE CHATS ABOUT BLUE YELLED
DRESS

| The fashion of yelling figured taffeta
1 or foulard with net is strlkIngly new
! We have been accustomed to seeing such
| silk gowns yeiled in georgette crepe or
| chiffon, but the net yelling is new and
much more effective because being more
| transparent than georgette crepe the de-
| sign of the silk beneath is much more
| obvious.
| Dark blue. sand rose, raspberry and
| brown are the shades of net most used
| on these new yelled frocks. Sand and
| blue. white and blue. and white and black
are favored combinations.
| There are many attractive figured
| silks, but taffeta and foulard present the
| best examples, because of their soft
weave and also because the manufac-
| turers devote any number of designs to
| these two silks.
| Madame has made up several yeiled
frocks. and they have been accepted with
| enthusiasm.
| I've sketched for you one of the pret-
| test models she has just completed for
Miss Dorothy Deacons summer outfit.
I've selected this gown because it con-
veys a good idea of the simple charm of
these veiled frocks.
The underdress is white taffeta fig
ured in dark blue. The pattern is an ir-
regular design that is very attractive.
Dotted silks are also smart when yelled
with net
The overdress is dark blue silk net
The kimona blouse of the figured mate
rial shows the sleeves and underarm sec
tions on either side of bib panel of the
blue net which is picot- edged. Occasion
ally these edges are bound with white or
dark blue silk on similar dresses. The
bib is rounded in the neckline that so
many women like.
The straight dron skirt of the figured
waist. The drop skirt shows about ten
inches below the draped overskirt of the
net.
The blue. net is draped pannier on the
hips and the edges of the drapery are
left open and picot finished.
If the bib panel is bound the pannier
drapery may also show a line of binding.
Some Of these net overskirts are slashed
at the side and therefore take the form
of draped panel back and front. In
this case all the edges of the net are
either picot finished or bound with silk
The girdle of this attractive gown is
dark blue taffeta in plain ground
Miss Deacon sand when she had her
last fitting that she was sometimes going
to tie an orange or cerise ribbon
around her waist and let the long ends
flutter in contrast to the dark blue and
white tones of the frock. Madame said
that she thought these colors would be
very striking with dark blue. and she
recommended grosgrain ribbon, either
plain or feather edged.
One of the many hats that Miss Dea-

What this new apron effect so much
talked of in fashion magazines amounts
to is nothing more nor less than a tunic
that extends apron-wise in front, the eff
feet being even more amusing if the two
little pockets are added right in the
front. A charming model is displayed
with short scant underskirt and then,
tends out at the hip line and is edged
with black lace, which is again used to
form two little pockets each topped off
with little bow of black ribbon. is tied
at the front of the bodice. Yellow or
candle in narrow plaitings is used in dou-
bic frills around the neck and at the
edge of the short little sleeves.
