THE most interesting feature of the
l. fashions recently advanced, and
an influence particularly noticeable in
gowns and wraps for evening wear,
is the tendency toward irregular out
lines both in the draping and orna-
mentatiol of these garments. The I'M
balanced effect is distinctly the mode
and 1t Is a real test Of the designers
ability to create models that follow
the fashion and are still graceful and
becoming.
In the evening gown pictured above
the new fashion is evident in the skirt
which Is cut and draped into irregular
folds at the left side. The point Of
the longest fold touches the floor while
the skirt line at the right is slightly
shorter than ankle length. this conces-
sion to the mode Is modified by the
several straight lines of the uppe:
part of the dress.

Rows Of crystal beads ornament the
front and the capelike panel at the
back, which Is bloused and caught in
a belt. The cape effect provides a
pleasing softness to the otherwise
severe, sleeveless model. The square
neckllne, though not a recent add
tion to the fashion, has been constant
ly growing in popularity.
In new silks both designs and colors
are borrowed from many different
sources. There are occasional patterns
from the Egyptian, worked out In the
soft deep reds and blues, used In an
clent wall decorations and there are
some motifs from the Grecian designs
that are particularly attractive.

To indicate the regard held for
DR.. Spaeth in other places is a let
ter received by the Kiwanis club
here from the f1iwanis club in Chi
cago. This letter makes mention OF
remarkable way in which the
lecturer puts his subject across to
his audience, and recommends that
Casper Biwanians avail themselves
of the coming opportunity to hear
him. Because of this the local club
has secured a date when DR.. Spaeth
will address its members. Other or.
CARNATIONS are already attempting
TO have his week here SO arranged
that they may be assured of hearing
him.
An inestimabIe benent Is being
provided the people of this city BY
the Charles e.. Wells Music COM
pany. 1t is certain that the mes
sag of music to be delivered in
Casper by DIR. Spaeth will produce
in the hearts of his audience a very
kindly feeling of appreciation. not
alone for good music, but for the
thoughtfulness of the Wells COM
pany in providing the week OF
lectures.
, 1923-10-28

On his way across the continent
in an effort to inspire a greater and
a more real love for good music,
DR.. sigmund spaeth to Cas-
per November II, For one week
he will deliver his lectures here on
appreciation of music, which in the
leading cities OF the cast ave been
acknowledged to be not only peer
less in point of authoritativeness
and value, but highly entertaining
to all classes Of people. To the
Charles e. wells Music company is
due the credit for bringing to this
city such an outstanding figure In
the musical world as DR.. Spaeth.
There seems to be attached to the
works of the great composers some
awful mystery which is conveyed
enshrouded TO the majority and Is
only solvable by the elected minor
ity. An age.long misconception Of
operas and recitals has been firmly
planted In the minds of many peo-
pie and, like traditions. is passed
on from one generation to another.
DR.. spaeth will dispel all illusions
in Casper as to the impossibility of
really enjoying good music. He is
more than capable of doing this.
His audience Is never under the
necessity of adapting itself to him;
rather, he always hnds himself to
be at once an integral part of his
gathering of hearers. When he
addresses a group of school chill
dren he is one of them, e~nlivening
their interest in the subject which
is so vital to him.
It is this adaptibility that has
made DIR. Spaeth n recognized char
acter among lecturers on subjects
pertaining to music. Not only is he
able to fit himself to his audiences
understanding of his subject but In
the way OF experience he retains a
wealth of knowledge on his subjects.
He first won distinction through his
brilliant reviews Of concerts and
opera in the New York Evening
Mail. Later he wrote IN music and
other subjects for the New York
Times and the Boston Transcript IN
conjunction with James G. Huneker,
Richard Aldrich and H. II. Parker.
A graduate of Haverford university,
he was awarded the degree of Doc
tor of Philosophy by Princeton uni
versity for his scholarly dissertation
on Millions knowledge of Music"
This work was published by q.
Schimer. He was also a member
Of the Princeton faculty when Wood
row Wilson was president of that
institution.
