Ensembles
Are Simple
in Their Cut

| PARIS, May When a complete
change occurs in the realm Of fash
ion. it is reflected in every category
of dress-morning, afternoon and
and evening.
/ Evening dresses, by reason of
their greater complication of cut
and sumptuousneSs, show the
change less markedly as these fea-
| lures detract the attention.
| 1t is another matter altogether
so far as afternoon dresses are con-
cerned. For some seasons past, any
element of a startling nature has
been carefully withheld from this
/ type of gown. To cause a sensation
these days is considered bad taste.
Details, such as a few inches added
to the skirt length and a waistline
a few inches higher or lower, are
registered Immediately, and are
sufficient to modify completely the
afternoon silhouette, especially as
most such models are distinguished
by their sobriety of cut.
This season there are two kinds
OF afternoon dresses. Aside from
the fluffy models made of chiffon
and other such fabrics, the type Of
dress which best characterizeS this
seasons afternoon modes is the
adaptation of tailored ideas to ma
terials hitherto undreamed of. Thus
this season We have seen the use
of georgette and other such soft
fabrics for afternoon tailleurs and
the result is invariably a model
gifted with an aspect of great dis
tinction to which can be applied
that old-faShioned term "lady-like"
The new afternoon ensembles
usually are composed of a dress and
jacket of varying length. These are
more or less simple Of cut.
An afternoon dress which is de-
signed to be worn without a coat
has to show more intricate cut
and some sort of trimming to en-
nance it's dainty and feminine
charm. Finely worked lingerie
touches intervene in those models
cut on palmer, tailored lines to
tighten up the dress and lend it a
softer look, because here the ma
terial employed is of more severe
texture.
Clever touches of lingerie at the
neck and cuffs invariably bring out
the salient points OF dress, even
though the cut be perfection itself.
And the tailleur demands that all
accessories be impeccable. The
woman who adopts this type of
dress can not afford to make the
slightest mistake.

Difficult to
GiUe Aid TO
NezOLy7OedS
BY MARTHA LEE

Anne is going to be married. She
has been going with Bill for about
two years and is madly in love with
him. And she wants to know set
of rules to follow to assure her mar
rage of success. She wants recipe
for perpetual happiness and TO
nance.
There's a chance for some one to
make a fortune over night. The
man or woman who can work out
such set of rules that infallibly
are successful is made. Because
successful marriage, perpetual TO
nance and eternal happiness are
the bluebirds we have all been seek
ing ever since Adam and Eve lost
their lease on Eden.
Burned Fingers Best
It's a question of dispute whether
or not young brides and bride
erooms should have advice. From
the time youngsters are old enough
to get into mischief they will not
learn a lesson permanently until
they have experienced the pain or
punishment of doing something
they ought not to do.
All the lecturing. admonishing
talking, scolding in the dictionary
won't keep a child away from the
hot stove half as successfully as one
burned finger.
Men and women who have Deen
married a number of years are apt
to give misleading advice for the
simple reason that they have en-
tirely forgotten the causes of dis
cord between bride and bridegroom
In these days every little thing
counts. A forgotten kiss IS almost
too heartbreaking to bear. A sharp
word is equivalent to a blackened
eye.
Watch Appearance
Later a forgotten kiss isn't even
noticed and a sharp word is all in
the days conversation. Because in
place of these little Sights have
come money problems, the rearing
of children and perhaps infidelities.
And so, about the only advice an
outsider would dare give to a young
bride and her husband would be
this: Always treat each other with
the same kindness, consideration
and respect that you would extend
TO a friend whose sincere friendship
YOU were interested in keeping.
Be extremely careful to avoid be-
ing careless, in appearance, in &C
tions, in word and manner. Avoid
like the plague saying bitter words
that must be remembered in spite
of all the forgiving in the world,
secretly remembered and ranking,
for that reason.
Never, under any conditions, re-
buke your mate in public. A public
humiliation is absolutely fatal to
love and romance.
Keep It we'll in mind that two
healthy, normal people are apt to
meet up with disagreementS of opin-
ion after marriage, the same as
they have before marriage. And
that such disagreements are not the
occasion for putting on the gloves
and going to the mat. They are
chances to discuss a natural differ
ence of opinion, perhaps with real
benefit.
A bride and her benedict have a
duty toward one another. They
both are primarily interested in
making their life a happy, success
full one, in relation to each other.
Too many marriages are ruined
by the careless acceptance of soled
intfmacies that can be made to
grow beautiful with proper care and
attention.
Beware of the commonplace, you
June brides and bridegrooms. That
is a lesson best learned by avoid
