FROCKS LIGHTENED BY EF FECTIVE
 EMBROIDERIES

Various embroideries serve to light en simple frocks of tricotine and sat in. The new line of dresses consist mostly of tunic, with an occasional frock in short coat effect, and spe- cial emphasis given to the chemise type. The latter are often seen with narrow knife pleated sections let in at the hipline, or pleated side panels.
 Embroideries in blue and white wool lend a striking note of charac- ter to a dress of this type, appear ing at the neckline and in large mo- tifs placed above the hipline on the straight hanging bodice. The bodice of another is striped with silk em- broidery in dull red and black and is girdled by sections of black silk twisted cord interestingly joined to- gether with narrow stripes of red and blue kid linked by metal rings.
 Another navy tricotine frock has the effect of suit. It's fitted bodice and flaring peplum are slit into nar- row panels through which the braid trimmed skirt yoke of beige tricotine is revealed, presenting a pleasing con- traSt.
 It is said here that much more oi tricotine is being bought at presen! than of soft crepe Satins.

HENRIETTA WALTERS

So great became the reputation of Henrietta Walters as an artist during her fortynine years of life, that Pe- ter the Great of Russia offered her a large pension if she would practice her art in St Petersburgh. However, since Holland was the land of her birth, she loved it too well for even this flattering offer to tempt her. She was born in Amsterdam in 1892, and died in that same city in 1741.r~ She studied under some of the best art ists of that city,. including christo- pher Le Blond.
