= "a NDERTHINGS - like outer
things-grow more beautiful
with each new season, and they
~ owe their beauty to the rare
fabrics and dainty colors that are the
real foundation Of their styling. Gone
are the high-waisted, heavily boned
instruments of torture that we knew
as "corsets;" the long cloth corset
covers with short waist n cotton
drawstring. and all the long cloth un-
derwear; and the blanket robe of all
uses. Instead we have the corset
model that is not only beautiful, but
flexible and comfortable; the new
camisole, fiat, loose and long waisted
and piles of fluffy, delicately tinted
lingerie; and boudoir apparel of elab-
crate intricacy that is deceptively SIM
pie in its effect.
Silks, satins. crepes and voiles have
replaced the cottons Of other days
only linen-of the old materials-re-
naming. The Val, Irish, Calais,
Margot and flet laces-delicately
lovely-appear in the place Of the
heavy Cluny and torchon or the un-
wieldy embroideries. Slim lines and
soft falling laces and ribbons have
taken the place of scratched" rufies
and gathered skirts-for the fiat,
straight dresses of today must not
show punches beneath them. any
where.
The most radical change of the past
few years has taken place in the cor
set, which is now a garment Of de-
| lightful comfort as well as true beauty
of both line and material. Not only
grace of line but ease of adjustment
is imperative in the new models, and
the laceless model is gaining every
day in favor. This would, at first
thought, seem best adapted to the
slender figure, and certain models are,
of course But fashion is kind. to
the heavier figure, and this welcome
style is adapted to the woman who
wears the larger sizes. The corset
that seems to be the favorite at the
present time is the one made of a
combination OF fabric and elastic,
with the back lacing eliminated.
While there is a slight tendency to

of the models, lines In general favor
the low waist, slim hips and fiat back,
for the straight silhouette is still the
accepted one. Brocade-either silk
or artificial Silks the preferred ma
terial and trimmings are simple. Pink
is the favored color.
In the matter of lingerie there are
certain definite style notes and
changes, though as a rule lines
fabrics and trimmings are much the
same. In the material world of fash
ion satin is a leader, so we have the
satins, crepe back satin radium and
the various satin finishes as leaders.
Crepe de chine holds it's assured posi-
ton. and Georgette and wolfe are seen.
Glove silk is the preferred fabric of
certain women. and there are new

the true flesh tint to pale rose shades

p~ortunity for originality in lingerie,
and designers make the most of II,
so that we are constantly meeting new
forms of trimming or old trimmings

Tiny bows or dainty ribbon flowers,
sewed on to safety pins, can be used
for the back of the tiny baby dress
or fasten the little housecoats. Larger
bows. attached to large safety pins
may be used to decorate fresh pillow
covers daily, and yet larger bows, at
tached to blanket pins make possible
the use of one bow for many blankets.
Carriage robes of eiderdown, bound
In five inch satin or taffeta ribbon
have the corners neatly mitered. and
a matching carriage strap may be
made of two lengths of ribbon covered
rubber, the two pieces caught al

suspended OF short lengths OF ribbon.

~OINCIDENT with the adVanc OF
the fashion of sportswear we
have had the development OF
0knitwear as a practical, general
style. In the past three years 1t has
met with the usual number of trials
and disappointments, but In spite OF
them all has achieved and
popularity, quite putting to shame the
doubling skeptic that ~prophecied for II
only failure. So general has the fash
ion become, thai knitted garments now
appear at all hours of the day, and
sweaters, suits, even afternoon frocks,
are made of knit fabrics-silk, wool or
fiber. They are materials par excel
ience for travelling and business wear,
since they do not crush or wrinkle
easily, and the steadily increasing de-
mand for them has resulted in many
charming new weaves and really beau
tiful designs. Yet the fashion is really
only in Its infancy.
One interesting item In the history
of knitwear has great value from both
the artistic and practical standpoint.
Fiber-sometimes called artificial SILK
has quite generally met with public
approval. But 1t Is not silk In any
sense of the word, though 1t Is more
iustrous. AT the same time 1t is
bulkier, the while 1t is cool, nom
wrinkling and durable. 1t is wash
able, but should never be allowed to
soak-instead 1t should be l~aundered
quickly and gently, and dried prompt
ly. Water temporarily weakens the
aber, which becomes strong again once
II isthoroughly dry.
Knitwear Fashions Full OF Interest
The average woman is devoted to
the sweater, both as a garment of
protection and Of becoming beauty,
but she has been a bit slow in adopt
ing the fashion of the knitted suit or
dress, principally because at some time
or other she has had a knitted skirt
that stretched out of shape in a most
disappointing n And, too, the
skirt had a tight look that was decid-
edly u~nbecoming. But this Is no long
er the case, for not only are seams
bound, but the entire skirt is wholly
free from the "give" that has char
acterized many models in the past.

Henry Ford Is Target of Law
Which Bags Delegates
for Native Son,
Bp Times Special

BIZ Times Special
MONTGOMERY. Ala, Oct 20.-If
Henry Ford wants the Alabama dele
cation to the Democratic national
committee he Will have to move his
residence down here posthaste.
The Legislature, before its recent
adjournment, slipped through a Law
providing that the resident of Ala
bama who secures the largest vote In
the presidential primaries shall name
the delegation.
The law was passed by Underwood
supporters. Though their hero is op
posed to national protective tariffs
the Underwood forces decided he
needed State protective legislation
against the invasion of presidential
aspirants.
Ford Is Target
Though unnamed, Henry Ford was
the chief target Of the new law, which
has caused widespread dissatisfaction
Ford or any other nonresident can
didate, even should he get the largest
vote in the primary, could not win
the delegation, for that is guaranteed
the Alabama resident who sarners
the most votes.
Underwood, 1t was thought. would
thus have a strange hold on the dele
cation. But an unexpected danger
has arisen. One Brock Musgrove,
wealthy retired business man who
gave Underwood a close run in the
last senatorial campaign, is contem
plating entering the primary against
the Senator.
Strong Candidate
Under ordinary circumstances Mus
grove might not Rave a particularly
good chance against Underwood. But
the resentment against the sure-thine
methods of the Underwood Legisla.
ture is counted on to make him a
strong candidate.
He gained his former support from
the labor element and the drys. He
was a pioneer IN the organization of
the Alabama Anti-SaloCn League. The
Musgrove candidacy, should 1t ma
terialize, would have but one object
keeping the Alabama delegation
away from Underwood.
