THE LATEST PARIS COUTURE
Hair Drawn Back Loosely From Fore

from the forehead and waved in a
large knot just above the nape of the

the brow, which holds on the left-hand

MANY CApES WORN IN PARIS
French Styles Counted on to Hold
Sway Throughout Country for
Fall Wear

Wise In the changed ways of the
world, we no longer look every autumn
for complete revolution in fashion,
such as used to happen in the old days,
when every gown and suit in wom-
ans wardrobe might become unWear-
able almost over night says Paris
writer in Vogue. Individual taste in
dress is allowed its way nowadays, in
a manner which was never dreamed of
in our mothers philosophy. Neverthe-
less, as summer wanes, we look eagerly
for indications Of coming modes in the
dress of women whose ideas as rule
influence the mode and We attend
smart gatherings with our eyes wide
open for any indication of future in
tentions on the part Of the great cou-
turiers.
What is worn in Paris during the
Grande Semalne still has its bearing
on what will be worn by the rest of the
world in the autumn. Some Of the
early events were held III cool ana
threatening weather, with great gray
clouds overhead, ready to pour rain
on any expensive finery. The later
races were held in magnificent sun
shine, but because of the first damp
experiences, every other woman was
provided with a cape, and every posi-
BILE variety of this garment was to be
seen, in all materials, from rubherized
white tussur. with a big collar OF black
oil cloth, to filmy lace, collared incon-
rruously, but charmingly in black fox.
Many capes were plated all over, and
these we're sometimes of serge, crepe
de chine or chiffon; many were OF

ceiebrating the ingsthering Of the har-
rest. To the masses Of the Chinese.
however, there appears to be but
faint Idea Of genuine thanksgiving
connected with this moon feast II is
simply the remnant Of an ancient In
stitution. coming down from the re-
hottest antiquity as a meaningless
act Of nature worship. 1t Is possible
that In the beginning. among the early
Chinese people, the moon festival may
have been less pagan and more char
acterized by feelings Of thankful re-
soicing than it is at present However
that may be, no wiser choice could
have been made by the missionaries
Ia China toward establishing genuine
national Thanksgiving feast than the
selection OF the day Of the popular
moon feast
The moon feast was first proclaimed
a thanksgiving festival In 1906 at W.
chang. where the large church was
filled with a weli-ordered crowd of
Chinese. celebrating for the first time
the newly appointed thanksgiving
day. The sacred building was beau
tifuiiy adorned with offerings of staple
articles OF Chinese diet. like beans.

old moon feast will be gradually
