New York-(Special Correspond
ence. .)-Cret-onne with the dance
or the morning OF the afternoon.
This fabric is having tremendous
volgue at present. both for trimming
and foundation purposes. One finds
it appliqued on the sheer white net
Of dance frock in the sarie breath
that one gasps at the audacity Of a
French model Of blue serge sleeved
and trimmed in gay certonne. For
the porch and otherwise morning
frock it is an insistent feature of
summer fashions.
Black sateen decorated with motifs
OF either chintz or cretonne-here is
one of the most stunning contribu-
tons to the hot weather morning,
and certainly its practicality COM
mends it to the woman who spends
part OF her morning by the gas
range.
Black sateen is, in fact, an item of
hot weather dressing which we can
not afford to overlook. Frequently
il forms the skirt to top OF ging-
ham or cretonne. Indeed, combina-
tons OF all sorts are rampant in this
domain, and if you like you mate
a cretonne skirt with a top of repp,
linen or some other PLAN material.
One of these combinations is illus
trated in the frock of cretonne shown
"a green background. over which
are strewn old rose fowers-worn
with a blouse OF white batiste
shocked in old rose. The girdle is
of green ribbon.

was the only feature to an otherwise
Hfeless session in wheat on the board
of trade today. Houses that were

be for a big cash interest, which is

was lack of enthusiastic buying of
wheat in TIE early trading. Scat
tered showers were reported in
Oklahoma and Kansas. and tempera-
lures throughout the southwest and
central west were lower although the
forecast was for generally fair with
rising temperature. Disappointing
threshing returns on wheat were re-
ceived from Texas and Oklahoma,
with mention of black rust damage
in the latter state. Commission
houses bought September on a mod
crate scale early. and July came out
rather freely, tending to widen the
difference somewhat
Corn and oats were rather dull I,o-
cal traders bought corn early. while
commission houses sold. and the mar
ket on the whole showed an easy
undev-tone. Reports on oats con-
tinue relatively poor. but so far have
had little effect on the market.
The wheat market lacked enthusi-
asm. Values. however. showed
greater firmness toward the finish
on disappointing threshing returns
from, parts Of the southwest, with
some mention of black rust damage
in Oklahoma. The close was firm
with prices ranging from Il to LOO
higher, July 1.11& to Liz, and Sep
tember 1.12k to 1.12A.
The corn market later developed an
easy undertone and closed u higher
to / 90 lower, with July 6Ia to 6lN.
