NEW YORK, Feb. 1s.-Jacket
In dresses and more jacket
dresses and still more jacket dresses!
That's what you're going to see
this spring - morning, noon and
night-hundreds of 'en. Sprightly
looking costumes and one Of the
most-in-fashion dresses you can
wear.
Sometimes they're printed. Some
times they're plain. Sometimes
they're a combination of plain color
and print. Choose which ever you
like best. The fact that the dress
has its own matching jacket makes
it smart and in fashion.
It's practical fashion. In the
daytime, when you don't like to
go on the street coatless, but when
it's too warm for a coat, the little
jacket gives you the finished look
you want almost the look Of
suit.
In the evening, the dress is for
NAL without the jacket and less for
NAL with it on. You wear it to din
ner with the jacket and remove the
jacket for dancing.
Most of these jackets with day.
time dresses have full length
sleeves, but some of them have the
newer three-quarter length. And
many evening dress jackets have

the jackets illustrated are of this
general type, though differentiated
by their details.
The jacket at the left is entirely
collarless; it's fastened with a belt;
has tlree-quarter, bell-shaped
sleeves; and is quite short, giving the
effect of a short flared peplum be-
lowsthe belt.
The jacket at the right is collar
less in back, but has little reverS in
the front; it's fastened with a soft
sash instead of tailored belt; has
full-length sleeves; and is longer
than the other Jacket.
This longer surplice line jacket is
better for the figure that isn't slim
through the hips. The shorter pep
lum effects tend to add width
through that part of the body.
Box-Lfke Cardigan
Another fashionable type jacke6
easy to wear, too-is the box-liKe
cardigan shown on the center figure.
1t hangs loose from the shoulders
and is smartest when worn this
way-though it could be held closed.
You'll find the same surplice line
closing that's described above in
jackets that are worn with evening
dresses.
These are apt to be shorter than
any of the daytime jackets, and the
ones that come Just to the waistline
and tie at the side, are great ia
vorites.
A still shorter evening jacket is
the bolero, which you'll remember
was a favorite daytime fashion last
spring.
You'll see this sometimes in the
daytime, too, but not as often as the
longer jackets, since they take the
place Of a coat.

the fashion for dresses that are
piece, or that look like two
piece.

ports, have tunic skirts.
Today's dress delights in several
SHINING features so kind to the
woman of average full figure.
The applied front that falls in a
cascading effect at either side of
the bodice softens and nlinirnizes its
breadth.
A narrow belt that rests at the TOP
of the hips gives emphasis to the
nodded hipline of the long-waisted
bodice.
The circular tunic cores its front
to create a panel, which is decidedly
length giving.

Just
Every
Day
Sense
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

DERHAPS the most interesting
4 experiment now going on in
the world is that Of the Soviet
government in Russia.
There the 100000 minority
rules a vast country Of 100000
souls. The government has pro-
nounced for atheism. Children
are taught to hate organized re-
ligion. Yet in Russia today no
baby is Legitimate.
The United States Of ours is a
Christian land. We teach our
children to believe in God and to
respect the church. And we have
multitudes of babies for whom no
man is legally responsible.
If this proves anything at all,
it is that the righteous may learn
from the sinner.
There is no greater blot upon
our civilization or our Christian
ity than the manner in which we
treat babies born out Of wedlock.
rTNHE father who neglects or
4 abandons his legitimate child
rightfully is held up to scorn.
But many fine fellow proudly
walks our streets needless of the
one, two or half a dozen children
he has fathered and for whom he
takes no concern whatever, while
he is admired by a respectable
citizenship,
Orphanages are running over
with babies who literally have
been thrown away by their par
ents.
The reason for this? It is be-
cause we have built up a false
social conscience. tt is because
we have twisted conceptions of
what is right and what is wrong.
1t is because we treat with more
kindness the, girl who leaves her
baby on somebody's doorstep than
the valiant soul who keeps hers
and tries to make a living for it.
Before the God whom we pro-
fess to worship, all babies are
equal. How amazing, therefore,
that in a Christian land we per-
NIT these unfair and unjust dis
examinations. Is it conceivable that
to an innocent baby Soviet Russia
is more humane than is cody and
democratic America?

French Type
Predominant.
for Spring
By JULIA BLANsHARD
NEA service Writer

NEW YORK, Feb. 18-Decora-
i've wall papers are in style again
ana the Frenchier their inspiration
me more in vogue they are, Judging
rom the new wall papers Just out.
MOI that there is a return to the
oyer-ornatensss that we usually as
soclaCe with French interiors, but
Dnere IS something inin1itabIy fenni-
nine and Paris looking about many
OF Inc new papers. And a modern
restraint in them makes them all
the lovelier.
Metal papers are a new note. in
silvers, bronze. gold, with ali kinds
OF modernistic dainty stripes in
self-tones enrich ug them. These
papers are distinssly good with the
modern rooms.
Floral Designs Galore
Floral designs are in the ma
lor1ty. But such restraint as many
OF these showl For the living
room and dining room there are
quantities Of patterns in leaf de-
sign.
Some cool greens, others combin-
ing the leaf design with the color
Of occasional flowers. But none of
them has the old-fashioned gar
lands of leaves and flowers.
Rather it is a modernistic leaf
motif that is the popular leaf de-
sign this spring.
Victorian papers seem to have
been in the minds of some design
ers Of new wall paper. Victorian
scrolls and roses are seen to 90
With rooms that have the atnos-
phere of those days in their fur
niture.
Background Of Jade Green
Among the modern papers one
new design has background of
very soft jade green with enlarged
sflowf1akes, arranged far apart in
geometric design, lacy and trans
parent. 1t is an admirable back
ground for a dining room.
A silver paper marked in geo.
metric planes is made for break
fast rooms done in modern manner.
For mans room or a living
room where many rich colors are
used, there is a modern design
that uses the leaf motif, but
autumn colors, rich rust, gold and
some green are set against a beige
background.
For halls and formal rooms there
are many new scenic papers, One
of the new patterns is a design Of
a modernistic Interpretation Of
woods, with a hunting scene in
soft colored silhouette, dogs in full
run intent on prey. Nothing heavy
about this, yet it is colorful, zest-
full design.
Wisteria Paper Is Rich
Pastel toned papers or designs in
pastel colors against white are in
Guided in the new range of patterns.
one Of the loveliest of these is a
white background with pond lilies
on it, in the most delicate Of yellow,
with green leaves. or in that gor-
geous pale lavender they often ap-
pear in.
One Of the richest of the new pa
pers, and one Of the most feminine
designs, is wisteria paper, in lovely
mulberry tones, with the back
ground family barred, almost like
Venetian blinds.
Many of the new papers are
washable and disable for nurseries,
Kitchens, breakfast hooks and so on.
The day for too obvious zoo pictures
around the nursery seems to be past.
Many of the papers designed for
the children have flowers in gay
color, just like the grown-ups, and
done with modern touch, to please
the youngest Of the moderns.
