With so little change in the silhou-

on necklineS, sleeves and trimmings

fashion authority. While there is
nothing strikingly new in the cut Of
the neckline, there is so much diversity
that we have n great deal from which
to choose. One sees the straight
across line on both day and evening
dresses, the square-cut decolletage and
the 1880 style for evening, as we'll as
the low-cut back. Any number of the
daytime models show high collars. but
In many instances these are arranged
so that they may be taken off at will,
thus revealing Il collarless dress.

HARE FEARED BY IGNORANT
Harmless Little Animal Figured
Largely in the Superstitions Which
Are Considered of the Past.

Among old superstitions none was
more prevalent than that relating to
the hare'S foot, which vas carried for
luck.
Pepys notes in his diary that his
hare's foot lacked a joint, and that he
would obtain a proper one. 1t was
usual for fiShwives on the east coast
Of England to carry Il hare's foot in
their creel, but they were very angry
when the children shouted: we've
Il hare's fit in yer creel."
ITO kiss the hare's foot means to
go without dinner. If q hare ran along
a village street, the people said there
would be 4 fire. If a hare crossed a
tisherman's path when going TO sea,
he turned back. Seeing a hare was
said to be the cause Of that unhappy
defOrmity, harelip. 1t was thought
that Il witch could turn herself into
a hare, and that n hare could only be
shot with n silver bullet.

Black Lace and White Velvet.

Some Of the most striking cOmbi-
nations Of black and white are seen in
models Of black lace used in cOnjunc-
ton with white velvet. A favOrite way
ais is to develop q simple foundation
OF black lace with long sleeves that
hang loosely to about the elbow from
where they fit tightly over the lower
arm and wrist. The velvet is used to
form the front portion Of the dress.
which is in apron panel effect. Often
the white velvet panels carry beauti-
full embroidery in black.

let blue, which is the complement of
brown another combination would be
orange-yellow. for brown is lis ter
tiary shade. Brown also may be COM
bined with cream or lavender, for the
tertiary tints.
There are three primary cOIOrs, red,
yellow and blue, the pure hues Of
which are called the intense, or spec
trail cOlors. There are six of these, as
you know: red-Orange Ga mixture If
yellow and red) blue-violet ca mixture
OF red and blue), yelIow-green ca mix
ture of yellow and blue).
The spectral colorS are divided into
two classes: warm and cold. Red, or
ange and yellow are warm; green.
blue and violet are cold. AS a rule
warm color combinations are to be pre-
ferred; but when complementary col
ors are used, warm and cold are nice
~ balanced, and the effect is always
pleasing. For example, in n room fur
niShed in brown tones with hangingS
and uphOlsteries of blue, Il judiciOus
use Of orange-yellOw or gold for the
bright color note produces a harmonic
u effect.
Knowing. then, the basic rules Of
color combination, and looking to ma
ture as the best teacher in color har.
mony, we should apply those rules to
our clothes, our homes and our handi-
crafts.
