and sometimes there Is a bow Of
ribbon with long ends on the collar,
while the same sort OF ribbon is
chosen to make trimming for the
hat.
Parasols have been prominently
displayed by we'll dressed women at
southern Winter resorts, and 1t is
safe to. predict that the Spring and
Summer of 1927 will be ''parasol
seasons" The parasol Is In keeping
with the new spirit of feminine fash
ion and the more frilly and dainty It
is, apparently the better 1t is liked.
There are parasols entirely covered
with ruffles of lace that have been
carried to some extent. Though
some of the parasols are gay with
many colors at present, there Is
quite a demand for those OF beige
and other neutral tints. A foupda-
ton of beige georgette Is covered
with lace fiounces of the same beige
tone. White georgette foundations
are covered with frills and fiounces

modern fashion is that all these little
things should be chosen with fore

should be worn that is not In some
way related to the costume and the
other accessories.
Antelope skin is the choice of a
number of well dressed women for the

costume for Spring, and in the marked
contrast to the bright-colored ornate
handbags most women are carrying

Buttons should be considered among
the important accessories for the COM

tered by shank of silk are often
used to hold the two sides OF close
fitting sleeve cuffs together and some
times similar link OF buttons is used
TO fasten the frock together at the
neck. The fastidious woman takes
pains to select just the right button
FOR the occasion. One well known
French dressmaker used little buttons

new fashions are those made with
frills of ribbons running. round and
round. Parasols made of shirred
chiffon or ,georgette are also to be
seen at present In warmer sections
OF the country. Then there are para
soils with enormous artificial flowers

with embroidery as colorful and in
tricate as that found on a Spanish
shawl
Quill-shaped metal and crystal or
naments in pairs have been used to
ornament the simple felt hats and
satin toques for some times, and these
are still in favor. At present these
ornaments in imitation tortoise shell
are considered especially smart, and
there are also some In composition of
jade-like appearance.
There are real quilts to ornament
the new hats also. these often being
used In pairs at one side of the hat
and frequently being tipped and
edged with gilt paint.

Since 1t has become the fashion to
wear single striking pendant on a
silk cord or fine gold chain about the
neck as an ornament to an evening
frock, some women choose pendant
sets consisting of two pendant ear
rings with neck pendant to match.

idea apparently Is that even though
one wears imitation jeweiry the eff

too obvious. II you wear necklace

considered desirable to have the
necklace match some other bit of
jewelry--the bracelet. brooch, or hat
ornament. Pendants made of fine
mosaic work or intricate jeweled de-
sign are worn, suspended on fiat
silver or gold chain.
Ostrich collars are no longer looked
upon as q curious accessory worn by
women Of the last generation. The
new ostrich neckpieces are usually
short and are known as Pierrot coll

dainty afternoon frocks or even with
dinner gowns. It Is usually well to
choose the collar to match the hat

AND CRYSTALS,

costume buttons depicting little loco
motives were chosen.
Collars and cuffs OF white or ecru
muslin trimmed with fine lace are
again in fashion, and the well dressed
woman realizes that such accessories
must be OF the best. Some women
even impose upon themselves the rule
never to wear any lace about collar
and cuffs unless Ii ID real.
In Paris there liz disposition on
the part of the really we'll dressed
women who like to retain an air OF
exclusiveness in their attire to choose
from the well known dressmakers
frocks finished with lace collars, cuffs
gilets-and other such dainty muslin
and lace accessories. not only because
they and them becoming, but because
they have learned that frocks OF this
sort are not the ones that lend them
selves best to wholesale copying. They
know that women who have little
time to devote to their clothes choose
other models-frocts that need little
attention. This IL a good thing for
any woman to rennember--that there
is always an air OF distinction about
the frock finished with Immediately
kept washable collars and cuffs.
Dance accessories are so numerous
that the woman who wants to appear
well dressed must possess herself OF
much self-control when she goes about
selecting them. Fans have. come
back into favor and It II considered

sought by fashionable women. Pearls
are as much In favor as ever. but
those Of natural color are preferred
and the. pink pearls. so popular IL
months ago, are considered a little
out of date by some persons. though
It has been noted with interest that
one of the leading French dressmakers
is at present showing with, many Of
his new frocks pink pearl jewelry.
Rubies are often used with these
tinted pearls.
Kerchiefs with white linen centers

vogue In Paris for handkerchiefs of

lace.

who like to be in the vanguard OF
fashion, and the latest fashion is to

jacket.

half sigh in his voice, OF what he
would do II he were young again.
Time goes quickly when you are
young, and you are only too likely to
put off things you really should do.
Grown-ups look back to the golden
days of their. youth as the happiest

something of regret in their backward
glance. There are so many things
they would like to have done, but
didn't.
Unfortunately. time gives US just
one chance.
Let's plan things now, then, 50 as
to have as few regrets az possible
when we look back from q grown-up
viewpoint. Let's get lots Of exercise.
so that the grown-up person we're
going to be not so many years from
now may be At and strong. Let's not
get into little habits Of shiftlessness
that viii handicap the future. In
stead, let us all work hard and play
hard, 30 that when the person we're

his youth an encouragement, and not
q matter for regret.

Ben Gold, Louis Hyman and Joseph
Boruchowitz, leaders of the militant
needle ttrades workers have been
served with subpoenas to appear in
the first district court next Thurs
day as defendants in a suit for Grim
inal libel which has been filed by
Morris Sigman, the union-breaking
president of the international Ladies'
Garment Workers Union.
In addition to the above named,
the editors and business manager of
the Jewish Daily Freiheit have also
been served with subpoenas. The
suit is based on a series of articles
printed in the needle trades weekly,
Unity, of which Gold, Hyman and
Boruchowitz are the officers. They
were latter reprinted in the Freiheit
and The DAILY WORKER.
The articles reveal to the cloak and

The American Legion's cry of For

Wall Street and the capitalists. The
American Legion, if it serves any pur-
pose whatever, serves the bosses as
an organization of scab herders and
scab protectors. Most of the former
service men were workers before they
were sent across the ocean. And most
of them have been workers since they
came back. And most of them have
learned the lesson that the American
Legion has taught: that it is sub
sidized organization whose purpose is
to see that the workers do not think
for themselves and that they are kept
defiant to the bosses.
