colors. Then, there is the practice Of
setting OF a deep color against white,
and this, having been done by the
French, has been taken up by the
American designers to the end that
some Of the most interesting frocks
Of the season have been developed
In one type Of organdie frock the
organdie itself is a light blue, and, al
though there Is wide fchu to make
the upper part of the bodice as be-

provided with an extra fullness upon
which is superlmposed a series Of me-

the utmost care and attention. Only

1t looks like a veritable rope; and
there is the fchu which gives the
dress the style tendency which marks
1t as a product Of the present season.
Any one Of these points would be
sufficient to make one dress look
smart enough to Join the procession Of
the leaders of the season, but this one
possesses all OF them In a marked de-
gree. Its color is a light blue, which
has with 1t mixture Of green that is
most alluring. Then the medalllons,
which are square, are made up OF a
mixture Of cream-white filet combined

candle. AS for the bet, one Of those
which accentuates the waistline, 1t Is
made up Of a twisting Of a wide sill

velvet ribbon. 1t is a thick twist
which makes the waistline look as

There is another organdie dress with
