More Of dignity, grace, sim

in many previous seasons is en-
pressed in young womens
newest Fall frocks.
The new fashion does not take
away that girlishness that is
most delightful Of all. 1t has a
touch more of sophistication,
perhaps, but it has charm
charm, undoubted-and a charm
becoming to young womanhood.
Everything is line in after

ner dresses. Waistlines are low
and sleeves are long. Closely
fitting sleeves are to be seen, but
sleeves are mostly affairs of
flowing grace, with surprising,
snug little wristbands hidden
away somewhere.
Skirts are longer, but not ap-
pallingly so, as was half feared,
and show a beauty of line that is
new. 1t is manifest in panels,
in every case longer than the
skirts, that give the illusion OF
length. Circular panels are new
and lovely.
Silk crcpcs are the favorites,
many of the most exclusive
dresses being Of satin-faccd
crepe. Sable brown leads. but
navy and black are decidedly
good. What few touches of
adornment there are fall into
three classes: made Of self ma

sparingly, and girdle clasps.
