TIT Is the fashion of the moment to
 match fan and coiffure ornament to
 each other, and no evening costume
 " is completely smart unless accom- panied by both fan and coiffure orna- ment. No matter how simple and debutantish (to coin word) dance frock may be. 1t entirely loses any jeune file effect when accompanied by sparkling coiffure ornament and long earrings. But nobody wants to look a jeune file this season. The ingenue Is not the mode just now and the happer is going out. Skirts are longer. tresses are piled up and adored with towering coronets.J Stately grace and a Spanish sort of dignity are much preferred to romping happer ways in the ballroom.
 Very Spanish are many of the sum mer styles; the fringed wraps and shawls for instance. the enormous earrings, the big coiffure combs-anq' of course, the lace fans. Fans of lace are smarter than fans of feathers now and the airy lace fans are surely more appropriate for summer time. Some of the lace fans are spangled in gilt tering effect, and some have fringes of ostrich dropping all around the edge. Two very beautiful fan-and- comb sets are pictured; though in one case the comb is a bandeau They are called fan-and comb sets however, whatever shape the hair ornament takes. These pictured sets are typical of the seasons mode; one set is of black lace with jet and emeralds: the other set combines the lace with bril- liant orange tulle and cloth of gold. The fan of the summer is not enor- mously large, but Is exquisite in style, and the rounded French fan is pre- ferred to the broadly opening Spanish fan. Spanish In suggestion is the set of black chantilly and emeralds. The fan has delicately carved black wood sticks and the chantilly lace. made in one piece especially for the fan. is embroidered with tiny cut jet beads, the sparkling beads outlining the lace design. The comb has panels of black chantily framed with emeralds-or rather imitation emeralds. the rich green color of the stones very effective with the black lace. With this stunning set of fan and comb one

To Keep the Hair Dry When Swimming

Marion--or Marguerite. as the case may be-" And, of course. some young women will consider the idea im- mensely cute and intriguing. There are silk stockings for bathing wear you know-the very latest thing with your name embroidered In white letters about midway between ankle and knee, the embroidered name run ming in an oblique stripe across the front of the leg and the letters of such fair size and distinctness that even across the beach no one will fail to know your name. The name Is em- broidered on only one stocking and that stocking may be worn on either right or left extremity.

T VEN the securest, of bathing caps
 " is apt to let a wee bit of moisture A< seep under It's edge If Its wearer indulges in diving. or even In swim ming that throws the head low In the water Most women find they can keep their hair fairly dry when using the breast or side stroke. but swimming on the back or floating almost surely means soaked coinure. Some swimmers use two caps. the tight rubber diving cap first and over 1t a becoming cap of rubberized silk. But the diving cap has to be drawn very far down over forehead and ears to protect the hair thoroughly. and the rubber cap thus arranged Is usual ly hideously unbecomirg.
 There is. a new device for keeping the hair dry which really seems likely to do the business. It Is called bathing bandeau and is made or stockinette folded over rubber. It is. in fact, a sort of bandage, thicker at the back than at the front, which is tied securely around the head before you don the pretty silk bathing cap. And one advantage Is, that you do not have to take your coiffure down and make your cranium as small and sleek as possible-as you have to do when you pull on tight rubber diving cap. A folded length of channels tied around the head before the bathing cap Is donned will also help much in keeping the water out. but the stock inette and rubber bandage seems better protection and should be much appreciated by women swimmers.

shallow neck1ine and very deep arm holes are edged with ruby and crystal beads.
 Another Moyen Age gown. the crea- ton of Drecoll. has clinging slip Of leaf green satin and at very low waistline is attached a tunic of green tulle. This tulle tunic Is cut out In points at the edge and the points are outlined with green beads. The tulle tunic >ls set on the satin froek under girdle of green beads.
 Green Favored For Dance Frocks
 A great many of the summer eve- ming costumes seem to be green-or in combinations of green and white, or green and silver. Green is de- lightfully cool color and a green and white dance frock Is always fascinat- ing In d room where most of the costumes tend toward white. pale pink or pale yellow tints. And by the bye, where last summer four out of six dance frocks were black, this year you'll notice that the proportion Is about one to six. most beautiful green and silver dance frock is pie tured. This frock Is in the almost invariable Moyen Age style just re- ferred to; the long -waisted bodice and skirt of narrow width overdraped with filmy panels that trail below ,t. And sleeveless, of course! Note also the very modest decolletage. Yet you per ceive this simple-as- be frock with it's demure jeune file decolletage man ages to be sophisticated in suggestion the effect Is feature of summer evening gowns.
 The pictured model Is of eyelet pat tern embroidery made of silver threads-an exquisite silver cloth. or silver lace as 1t Is most frequently called. Over this material jade chif- ion is draped in cascade effect. the selvedge trailing on the floor. The very low waistline is defined by a girdle of flowers In gardenia white. green gold and faint mauve tones. The earrings-and never overlook the earrings this year!--are hoops of emeralds. This frock would be com pletely spoiled by a necklace. string of beads or even a breastpin. The big sparkling green earrings, however, add just the completing note of smartness.

Con- sider the white dinner frock pictured; {; it's long-waisted Moyen Age line, the cross-over drapery lifted at the right hip under a handsome ornament and the very simple neckllne. This frock has sleeves-plenty of sleeves to be sure! But if one wears sleeves at all with an evening frock they must be big draped scarf-sleeves like this. The frock is of white Georgette with white ivory composition beads on the sleeve draperies. matching the ivory beads that fall in long loop around the neck. Here again the enormous earrings-this time hoops of garnets with the white frock.
 Paris Introduces New Silhouette
 There Is new sort of evening frock. just arrived from Paris. This is the frock with decidedly bouffant skirt and waistline little higher than the very low Moyen Age line. Lanvin started the style and now the other couturiers are taking 1t up. One of Lanvin's models Is of white taffeta and silver lace, the lace draped in cas- caded petal effect over the full white silk skirt. A sash of white and silver striped ribbon ties in big bow at the side. Another full-skirted dance frock Is of pale gray taffeta; sleeveless and round-necked with pipings of mauve taffeta. On the front of the cunning gray bodice Is embroidered a nosegay of violets.
 One of these very new style dance frocks Is pictured and though the short waisted surplice bodice and full, gathered skirt are rather surprising in summer of long. sleek. limp drap- cries you cannot but admit the charm

wears, of course, emerald earrings. A handsome pair are shown in the pie ture-earrings with emeralds and pearls in the fashionable pendant style.
 Another beautiful set for evening wear is pictured-a fan of gold lace over orange tulle. the carved sticks of ivory and gold; and a coiffure bandeau of gold tissue embroidered in jet and steel A girdle of cut steel beads with gold beads to give the orange note accompanies the fan and coiffure or nament. Orange is particularly fash ionable in coiffure ornaments this summer and black lace Is often com bined with orange tulle In fans, bandeaux and combs. Emerald green Is favored also. And there are superb combs of lace with garnets giving color and brilliance.
 So fashionable are coiffure orna- ments just now tr at they are replac-

of this gay little model. It is built of silver cloth shot with orchid tint, and of the new radium lace which is al- most as impalpable as mist Yards and yards of this filmy lace edge the gathered silver tissue skirt and the lace Is made into a little surplice bodice over plain slip of silver tis- sue. The belt is of silver ribbon, laced in basket-weave effect and at the left side is a big flower with petals Of silk shading from faintest rose and orchid to deep mauve. And of course With this young girlish dance frock of silver cloth and lace. the most sop histicated pair of earrings you ever saw! Earrings of crystal beads and amethysts with pendants three inches long.
 Fur On Midsummer Wraps Nobody is a bit surprised to find fur on summer evening wraps. Fur has been establishing itself as proper summer trimming for several seasons, now 1t comes boldly out in bands and collars on wraps for evening wear Three midsummer evening wraps are pictured and all of them show the straight bloused line. with shirring at the hips. One of these wraps Is of ruby velvet with white fox trimming. Another is of rich blue brocade with pale gray squirrel. And the third Is of gray brocade with soft gray fur and silver braid
 There are beautiful midsummer wraps too of printed chiffon trimmed with fur, and of lace over chiffon, the shirred fabrics dropped straight from straight band of fur which makes | the collar.

 There are simpler coiffure orna- ments, not so striking and dashing but perhaps more becoming to the average woman. A woman, not ex- tremely beautiful nor extremely chic should be wary of striking hair orna- ments which may completely eclipse her personality. It takes great beauty or great personality to be more dash ing and effective than ones coiffure ornament. Becoming to almost all women are the chaplets Of leaves metal leaves in green, gold or frosted silver; or natural looking green leaves from the hat-trimming department arranged in wreath fashion around the head.

Ing picture hats for restaurant wear, and the dinner-bandeau is sometimes a cross between a huge featherec chapeau and jeweled coronet. Since French actress appeared in one Of the Paris cafes in headdress of>black and white paradise plumes mounted above a band of seed pearls-a trifie of millinery that cost a bit under two thousand dollars-the fashion for head dresses has almost swept hats into the discard for evening occasions;
 so says a late fashion bulletin from abroad. Some of the head-dresses
 made of pearl beads look very heavy on the little heads that uphold them. but there Is something very captivat- ing about these pearl bead bandeaux which fit the head like a wide- brimmcd cap and have ropes of pearl beads falling from either side. In a recent fashion show was a dinner gown of black crepe de chine. per fectly plain, sleeveless, V necked and draped a bit in. the skirt. A massive pearl bead girdle rested low on the hips with long ends falling over the skirt. and the pearl bead girdle was matched by a pearl bead head dress with ropes of pearls falling at either side.

DEERE is a certain sophisticated

suggestion about every single

The - frocks are so extremely simple that one wonders just where the sophisti- cation does lie; perhaps in the enor- nous earrings that are an inevitable part of the costume. No woman but looks knowing in huge. dangling ear ringa Put them on a kiddie of six and pile her curls high-and note the sophisticated, mysterious Mona Lisa expression of her.
 And the simplicity of the new eve ming frocks is not ingenue simplicity. There is nothing demure about 1t. The trailing lines, clinging draperies, bead-wcighted tissues and chiffons have a fascinating, siren-ish sugges- ton. And this although the decolle- ltage is more modest than It has been since . very small V and a band of black velvet around tho throat con- stituted a decolletage.
 Dance Frocks Sleeveless
 But though evening costumes have the shallowest of openings they have done away with sleeves entirely. Even the flowing lace draperies of the winter and spring seasons have been abandoned and arms are quite bare from shoulder to wrist. Cor. of course, nobody thinks of wearing gloves at midsummer dances.) The sleeveless frock with the arm emerg- ing from a rather small arm opening, and the neckline a rounded, girlish effect is about as different as can be from dance frocks of two seasons ago when the bodice was bit of scarf draped between beltline and armpit and seemed to be falling off save for bead shoulder straps that averted mis- fortune.
 The Moyen Age line prevails in dance frocks just now: that is. the clinging, ng-waisted bodice and straight skirt with panels of transparent stuff fall ing below the hem of the underskirt. Sometimes the belt is eliminated and the material of the frock falls straight from shoulder to hem. drapery to- ward the side just below the waist line, lifting the skirt in graceful effect.

is placed around the head from the nape of the neck to just above the eyebrows and covering the tops of the ears-which are, of course, cov- cred anyway by waves of hair.
 There are flower pc al turbans worn also very low on the head. the turban being without a crown so that the hair shows above the low-placed band or brim of rose petals, or tulip petals. or pansy petals as the case may be. The bandeau of equal width. going around the head like turban brim is smarter than the tiara effect; that Is, a bandeau wide at the front and tap ering down to almost nothing at the back. A very dainty tiara. however. is shown for wear with summer dance frocks of airy style. It is made Of iridescent shells and tiny roses of colored ribbon fill in the spaces be- tween the oval shells. Extremely dashing are single quills in bright color shooting out sideways from the head. Only piquant and young face can stand these barbaric looking quills.
