annual fashion show Of the Fash
ion Art League which is to hold
forth at the Congress Hotel, Chi
cago, for three days this month In
an exhibition wherein milady who
keeps abreast of the styles-and
where is there one who doesn't?-
may learn exactly what she Is ex-
pected to wear every hour Of the
twenty-four.
Gathered here for the three-day
style feat-the dates are March 16.
II and 1S--will be leading modistes
from Chicago, New York. Cleveland,
Detroit and other populous centers.
Nine. Gisela Bennati, widely
known Chicago designer who is
building trousseau land by ''trous.
seau" is NOT meant brides out
fit, but a wardrobe for milady's
wear around the clock') explains
that the basic principals of the cos
tunes will be simple in the ex.
IRENE. while the effect. of elabo-
rateness will be achieved in the
colorings of the fabrics used and
be richer and more gorgeous than
ever this year.
Nine. BennaIi has original ideas
In costumfng. She refuses to be
governed by any hide-bound set
rules of fashion, insisting on TAX
ing the models and adapting them
to the individuality of the wearer.
In other words, Nine. Bennati
builds that individuality of the
wearers into the gowns she creates.
otherwise my label will NOT
go into the gowns" she says
and a label carries unqualified en-
dorsement CT Me creation.
She has word to say on Paris
as the style center of the world.
Paris always will be a style
center" she added. THAT is, Paris
will continue to send out models,
but it is up to us to take them
or to leave them as we see lit. BY
that time / mean we can take them
and adapt them to American use."
This year the fabrics are to be
sheer and filmy ana gaily colored.
Pastel shades will be favored, but
again there is no hard, fast rule to
guide. Most anything will go,
provided the colors harmonic, pro-
vided it's deliberately ornamented,
and provided-last but by no means
least-that It fits the individuality
of the Wearer.

NEW STYLE OF
BRICK WALL
INVENTED
Masonry More Economical
and Stronger Than Old
Style, Is Claim

A substantial fire-safe brick wall,
that can be built at cost lower
than any other masonry wall now
in use, will be introduced in
Chicago on February 10 to the
brick manufacturers OF the coun.
try.
The wall is the invention of VII
liam Carver. architect Of the Com
mon Brick Manufacturers Associa'
ton of America, and will be shown
for the first time at the annual
meeting of that Association, at
Hotel Drake the week of February
8. The new wall is to be known
as the Economy wall, and as COM
pared with the solid eight.inch wall,
which requires thirteen brick to a
square foot of wall surface, the
Economy wall uses only seven and
one-half brick to a square foot.
The wall is particularly designed
to displace the unsubstantial brick
veneer construction which is used
iii some parts Of the country as a
makeshift between. all frame and
masonry construction. A veneer
wall is unsound. It consists of a
fcur.inch brick wall tied with thin
metal strips to frame studding and
sheathing. Veneer forms one of
the worst fire hazards possible in
residential building, because the
firemen cannot tell by exterior
appearance that it is a sham and
often enter the building in case OF
fire believing that the walls are
self-supporting brick construction.
only to be crushed by falling of
the thin veneer wallis.
The Economy wall is, In the main,
a four-inch brick wall, but with
four-inch pilasters at frequent in
tervals bonded into the four-inch
wall so that it becomes self.sustain
ing and substantial. This wall ha )
been tested, and even though the
whole interior OF house might
burn, these walls will stand secure.
The wall also is SO planned as to
give unusual protection around win.
dow and door openings, and to pro-
vide substantial masonry bearing
for second floor joists and roof tim.
bers. For small dwellings, garages
and other buildings Of light occu-
pancy, the new Economy wall will
have advantage over any other con.
struction in use today. It's cost is
approximately that Of cheapest
frame construction; is much lower
than brick veneer, and Tar below
the cost of any wall built with hol.
low pre-cast units. 1t also affords
a much warmer and drier wall than
anything yet devised in masonry,
costing less than the solid brick
wall.

co -OPERAT ION
URGED BY
HAZARD
Owner of Cathedral Mansions
Gives Idea of Successful
Apartment Management

Thorough cooperation between
remnant and landlord was urged
by C. B. Hazard in an interview
yesterday. Mr.. Hazard stated. that
in his experience he had made
every effort to please all tenants
IN every way possible and that ne
had received in return thorough CO.
nperation from the tenants.
This one fact according to Hazard
Is largely responsible for his won
derful success in handling his
apartment buildings. Cathedral
Mansions, one of Hazards proper
ties is practically all rented now
and a few months ago there We're
nearly one hundred vacancies.
While service and cooperation had
quite a bit to do with filling these
buildings it should not be forgotten
that the location also had it's
weight. No apartment building in
the city is more ideally located for
those wishing to be out where there
Is plenty Of fresh air and room to
get. out in the open.
The mansions located on Connecti-
cut avenue just across the street
from the geological Park is espe-
cially well placed for those who
have children that they wish to
take out in the parks.
With the approach Of summer
there Is always rush for apart
nlents or homes in just such a loca-
ton and therefore ar. Hazard
thinks that even the Few vacancies
he now has will soon be filled.
