ABOUT WASHnAv-

LIT ever occur to you that when
you see lines of clothes Tapping and
waving in the breeze on Monday
morning you are thereby securing
very good evidence that the persons
in your community are fairly well
advanced in household efficiency? In
fact. it is a sign of considerable prog
ress in the practice of housewifery
when there is any regular wash day
Monday or any other day. You
see primitive folk, no more than ami
mails. know such schedule of work.
The primitive housewife has no such
system. She washes the garments of
her family, IL indeed she washes them
at all. when necessity demands it. just
as her spouse hunts and gathers fire.

his other tasks. not with any regard
to the time or the day. but as neces-
sity Or in lination requires.
1t is not until people become fairly
well advanced alons the high roa d
Of civilizat ton that they seek out a
schedule for their tasks. And as with

housewife who is still primitive in
her methods is helped and bound by

Of Interest to Women
HIGH COLLAR AND SHORT SLEEVES
BY ANNE RITTENHOUsE.

Who started the theory that the long
tight sleeve was a natural compile
mentary of the high collar? You have
heard 1t everywhere and more than
one commentator on the autumn fash
| ions has spoken of the long tight
sleeve as a ioregone conclusion since
| it was apparent that French women
were going to wear high, Swathing
collars. on occasions.
| But what seems to have happened is
this. While especially here in Amer
lea woman are holding out against
! the high collar. which they insist is
unbecoming and uncomfortable. it is
! gradually but surely working it's way
! into the picture. Without a doubt we
/ shall soon get to the point where We
| will accept an occasional high collar
| in our wardrobes. not because we find
| it becoming or because we are con-
| WINGED that it is not uncomfortable,
! but because 1T looks right.
| While the high collar is in the grad
ual ascendency, the short sleeve has
not lost caste for daytime wear quite
| 50 automatically as we thought 1t
would. In fact. the high collared
| frock with extremely short sleeves
| has scored a great success. 1t has the
! sanction Of French approved by Mar
tial Armand and score of other
dressmakers. and in the recent Luz
! ellie openings here and in London the
high collar with short sleeve was
again apparent.
You may be sure that when talk Of
high collars Is in the air there will
always be revived that old. old ques-
ton as to the comparative desira-
bility of clothes that are first of all
becoming and those that are first of
all smart The low collar is more be-
coming to nine women out of ten
than is the high collar, but there is
little question but that the high col
| lar possesses advantages of smart
ness for! street and daytime frocks
And there really are times when it
avails a woman more to look smart
and decidedly in the picture than to
style.
A Cause Of Concern.
| There really is nothing that has
caused so much concern to the well
dressed woman here and in Paris
during the recent long reign of the
| low collar as the problem of cover
ling the back of the neck. Small sum-
| mer furs. the swathing of tulle, silk
scarfs and wool scarfs and the short
lived ostrich collarette-all these have
been merely a protest of smart won
en- against showing the bare back of
the neck in daytime street clothes.
| The high-collarette frock, of course,
! obviates all this. 1t makes 1t mat
/ ter Of no moment whether you have
| q neck fur or not.
! Shown in today's sketch is frock
of this type developed by Martial Ar
mand, Of crepe de chine. with the
heavy embroidery conferred on the

Keeping Summer Indoors.

When we keep our houses at 20
degrees or Whereabouts with the
coming Of autumn and winter we are
simply trying to create summer
atmosphere in spite of the fact that it
is winter. And when you feel in
clined to grumble if the heat goes
down at all in your rooms just reflect
that your ancestors-every one, in
fact, until recently-never knew what
it was to have the comfort of summer
climate indoors in winter. Even in
kings palaces the best that could be
expected was sufficient heat when

there are no definite days for definite

a very low level.

wise, there must be self-control and
a degree of purposefulness. Were

yield to the temptation to delay the
Mondays task till Tuesday. when she

pushed on till Wednesday or Thurs
