STYLE FOR EVENING GOWNS
Paris Mode Permits Of Broad Indi.
VIduaIIsn In Selection Of Gar
mentS for Formal Wear.

From the spring openings in Paris
comes the report that the style for
evening gowns continues to be "eclec-
tique." which being interpreted into
crude American slang means each fel-
low for himself and each In his own
way. There is much to be said In
favor Of this, for IL gives a large va
riety from which to make a choice
and II allows that trend toward indi-
vidualiSm in dress to have full and
uninterrupted sway. The Partisan
designer this season, Il seems, has &C
complished every manner Of style and
has drawn for his ideas upon every
source Of inspiration.
Poiret, for instance, has done a
great deal in the way Of Spanish eve
ming gowns which show pannIers bulg-
Ing out over the hips in many and
voluminOus folds. A frequent decol-
Iete Is termed The Empress Eu-
genie" and when the sort Of gown is
cut very low, as II often is. there are
delicate metal chains used to slip over
the shoulders and TO hold the gown In
place At this house, too, there is TO
be seen another evening fashion which
dIscloses completely one shoulder and
which has q point Of the draped fab
nc reaching over the other shoulder,
leaving the back quite free from Gov
ering. Over the uncovered shoulder a
strap slips to hold the gown in place.
II Is the evening gown which was
best liked In Paris during the winter
season and which Poiret has seen at
to repeat, as has also the house Of
Madeleine ct Madeleine.
Madeleine ct Madeleine have q fas-
cinating evening gown Of metal bro
cade In Persian colorings. One arm
Is left entirely without a sleeve Of
any sort and the other one Is covered
with ropes Of pearls wound about to
form q sleeve tightly fitting and to-
tally transparent.
The Oriental influence dominates
all Of the gowns shown by Patou. The
robe called Cleopatra" as its name
suggests. is wholly Egyptian In char
acter. II has a belt Of metal orna-
ments set with carbuncles. Another
termed "Princesse Persane" Is Of tuIle
braided in gold. interpreted with
green and gold threads.

The Mardi Gras under the au-
spices of Berkeley Post Nc. IA,

several thousand people to the Pub

stood around the dancing area and
the booths from s until after 10
o'clock, enjoying the music, the
dancing, the refreshments which
were sold and the general gayety
which dominated the gathering.
The northeast section of the square
had been roped Off and was liter.
ally packed throughout the evening,
with cars lined up as deep as the
traffic officers would permit at
ever point from which the lights
and merrymaking could be seen.
The post members and manage
ment took the lead In creating Il
feeling which prompted every one,
whether dancing or throwing CON
fetti or merely looking on, to have
good time.
The Dol1ky band gave a concert
early in the evening in the band
stand, and Hose Company No. 5's
drum corps also was present and
attracted considerable attention
with their marching and their
drums and Instruments Every
ounce of the 1000 bags of confetti
which the management offered was
sold within an hour after the open
ing. There was a run on the re-
freshments, and it was said this
morning that approximately 100
couples enjoyed the dancing dur
ing the evening.
