There was 4 little informal

Of success.
Nor did the fact that she was .
somewhat seif-appointed hostess
suhdue her In the least. since she
had all the effroptery of youth
and supreme confidsnce in her
self.
When the crowd had left she
happened to ask her hostess the

who sat in the corner, the gidl

The Ensemble Assumes New Interest
The Washington Times 15c Practical Pattern

A delightful Interpretation OF
the varied ensemble treatment
is shown in Design 1454. A
jaunty cape transforms a simple
two-piece model into complete
fall costume. The frock is a
smartly tailored affair, consist
ing of belted blouse buttoned at
the side and featuring an unusu-
ally clever surplice line In a
rounded vestee. The collarless
neck line is especially good
while the Y finish is most be-
coming.
Pattern 1854 may be 'deVcl-
oped of tweed, kasha or jersey
A braid binding around bloIise
and collar of cape would be ex-
tremely chic. A mixed tweed
suggests dark brown braid and
buttons. Navy blue bound IN
black braid is smart.
May be obtained in sizes 10
to al.
Size SO requires three and
one-half yards of 54-inch fabric.
This model is easy to make II
you use this pattern, which is
