in CAV colors makes an appropriate
setting. Trimmings on these are usu,
allv appliuuel roses, ruffies and fruits
But to return to laces. Cascades
of lace trail their flmy lengths below
tightly fitted taffeta bodices with
charming effect. Over chiff0r
drop, single full skirt of lace will
fall, for the direct purpose Of intri-
guing the beholder.
A softly draped lace neckline was
noticeable on some of these cos
tunes while others wore long loose
sleeves Of lace.
Generally dresses for the bail care
fully omit sleeves, occasionally they
are careless enough to let narrow
band Of taffeta cross the upper arm.
But, strange to say, with these
sleeveless gowns are many high necks.
A fitted round effect is the usual
treatment.
Apparently the very low down-to-
the-waistline back is to be omitted.
Let those who were shocked at our
past seasons frocks take hope.
Sports costumes this fall are self
expressive as all our other autumn
moods. Black and white are COM
bined in many, many ways. Sleeve
less packets for the early season are
great favorites.
Smart Sport Outfits.
A three-piece suit in jersey seems
especially wearable. A straight slip
over Jersey dress comes IN jade, grey,
rose and black. With this the SIM
pie hand made blouse is appropriate
with its fresh collars and cuffs. To
complete the costume sport jacket
Of matching color offers It's soft
comfort, with two pockets just where
ones hand will easily find them. 4
silk sweater with a plaid skirt makes
a pleasant combination. Because Of
their gay bright colors, sports things
are so very attractive.
IF among the wonderfully designed
and beautifully colored clothes Of
fered this fall you cannot select
complete wardrobe, exactly fitting
your personal needs, you are indeed
an unhappy woman. You do not de-
serve sympathy.
But you are rare. Most Of US viii
find ourselves correctly and s'nartiy
gowned in this years frocls, fitting
as they so perfectly do, the every
need Of the busy day Of tie modern
woman.

Cle,Us Financial ReUiew

New York Sept. 20.-President
Hard;ng.s cali for conference on
unemployment s expected to fur:l,n
the occasion for q general considera.
ton Of business conditions. The an
n0uncemcnt that controversial issues
would be barred may prevent discus
sion Of some If the most deOata5le
matters, 5r?ch IS tariff and tax policy,
bit review CT the general business
outlook end The prospects for revival
of industry must of course co"jt!-
tute the staple Of debate on the occa.
sion. Although there have been many
extreme r%portS on unemployment
careful examination of The conditions
during August seem to show tAat
there has been but little change, and
that little fo:' the better.
There are, IN fact, an increasing
number # hopeful Indications from
day TO day. Chief among these con-
tinues to be the much better net rev.
enues Of the railroads. 1t would
seem likely that the July improve
merit over las year would hardly be
less than S75 100000 and while for
the half year the net income IS by no
means up to the 6 per cent level OF
profit named in the Transportation
Act, it is so much better than had
been feared trat the railroad issues
have been aDle to maintain them
selves quite well. Favorable also as

export position within the near fu-
tune. Although the statement Of
United States Rubber showed a de-
ficit the market had already fairly
discounted the contents Of the state
ment and the stock has been strang.
thenad rather than reduced by the
announcement.
Gel1nauys payment of S150,000,000
additional in gold marks on August
81, shows that that country is sc
length applying itself 10 the task OF
meeting the separations requirements
It is a natura! consequence Of this set
tlement that there should Be an up
ward movement IN sterling and
francs, but such fluctuations are
probably temporary. The arrival Of
some important British and French
maturiti2s in the near future as well
as the apparent fact that. both Eng
lish and the Continental countries
will have to import heavily of our
staples during the coming two or
three months necessitates strong
demand for dollars, which, in the
absence IF some exceptional influ-
ences, should tend to raise the value
of American currency relatively to
that of foreign countries at least a
degree. The continuation Of very
heavy IMPORTS Of gold into the Uni
ted States has now brought the es
timated net gain of that metal for
the first eight months of the year
up to near $500 100000. This, while
t emphasizes the reserve strength Of
our banking system tends to increase
the difficulty CT a restoration Of
normal trade conditions. Accor Ring
to a statement of the Federal Re-
serve Bank Of this city, loans of the

More About Trimmings

Trimmings are interesting and va
rious. More ribbons, beaded effects,
and rosettes and rutfles Of the mate
rial are some of these.
Moire ribbon is put on in fascinat-
ing clusters of tabs about four inches
long, peeping from under tucks. a
georgette dress boasted deep band
of these tabs, all set on in rows at
it's hem. Generally the trimming is
horizontal.
Bead trimming is more concentrat
ed as to pattern and tends to accent
the lines Of the dress.
Rutfies of taffeta cleverly fringed
by fraying the material are also used
Rosettes and flowers of the material
Ct the dress are appliqued for deco
ration thereof. Some eyelet en-
broidery is seen. Garnet thread is
often used to embroider navy blue.
Canton crepe of finer variety is
popular among the fall materials and
also georgettes and taffetas. Taifeta
is the great favorite.
Evening dresses this year will be
fiImy with wide laces. And praise
be, the colors are to have it their
own way. Dyed laces in ecru, grey,
yellow, raspberry, and orchid will add
to the fairylike quality of the party
frock.

movement has been furthered by the
belief that farm prices as whole

cause it naturally facilitates the re-

was not surprising to those who have
been close to The traction situation,
but gave an unpleasant shock to the
rank and file of investors. The
sharp fall in the price of lnter5oro

to be expectsi. With very large
majority of the notes deposited Under

the difficulties that the sue

had to solve. The matter of
varying quality is one of the
greatest annoyanccs to the gas

1t was easy TO get a standard
product when practically all
the gasoline came from one or

Comparatively little gasoline
was used then. Today, the
demand is SO great that all
parts of the globe have been
explored for petroleum, which
accounts for The great range
