The robe de style. that is the
period gown, is an important addi-
ton to the wardrobe OF the we'll
dressed woman.
No matter how many up-to-the-
minute costumes she may own she
will find that a bouffant, picture
gown enhances her beauty and adds
a touch of romance and a suggestion
of the picturesque that is cXquisitely
satisfying.
Since gowns for day have become
so simplitied and so simple as to line
and treatment, there Is a growing
feeling that the evening gown should
offer a contrast, and that gorgeous
materials and elaborate ornamental
ton should prevail.
The nodded bodice Is becoming
more and more popular, and one
senses a distinct feeling for the
waistline in many of the newest
of the evening attire. The full skirt
has definitely arrived.
Materials become more elaborate
by the minute. Velvet Is the most
popular fabric of the moment, used
for day, and for evening for gowns
and wraps.
Velvet has never been more gor-
geously embroidered. beaded, Jew
elled and ornamented than this year.
Gold brocade gold lace and COM
binations of velvet and brocade are
excellent style.
There is definite return to the
formal evening frock with a very
low decolletege, particularly in the
back and cut low under the arm.
A very popular new silhouette
shows the high drapery of the skirt
In front and the low, nodded line In
the back.
The jabot treatment has been
popular all season for day frockS
and is being developed very beauti-
fully in chiffons and satins for even
ing.
The irregular hemline is preferred
to the straight, and there are many
long-skirted models and some trains
seen in the French collections.
There Is much talk of the return
OF the hustle, and some new tricks
IN draRery that give a hustle effect,
but whether this will prove at all
popular with women or not remains
to be seen.

Japan in 1924.

A net increase of 10,036 communi-
cants in the Episcopal Church is
noted in the Living Church Annual

Attention is called to the fact in con-
nection with these figures that the
missionary district of north Toxic re-
tains now only $50 communicates as
compared with 1856 the preceding year,
the balance having been transferred to
the jurisdiction of the japanese Epis-
copal Church along with the cathe
dral and other churches In the city
Of TOXIC. in consequence of the es-
tahlishment of an independent church
there with the election of a native
japanese bishop, in December. 1924
This transfer in no sense stands
for loss" says the Annual, but rather
for the beginning of the elimination
of the hopes in which all our foreign
missions are planned. that they are
but the nuclei of autonomous churches
to be formed when the mission at
tatnS sufficient strength to admit of
it. Japan especially can never be
Christiani2ed by foreigners, and the
entrance of bishops of their own race
into the upper house OF the Nippon

of the efficacy of our work.
Increase In Porto Rico.
The Annual also notes in connec-
neCtion with missionary work in
Porto Rico an increase OF 577 COM

tiou of Independent worshippers un-
