fashion with a roll collar, big patch
pockets and set-in sleeves. A wide
belt, patent leather bag and soft
felt hat in ocre yellow complete
a most f1attering as well as most
swagger ensemble for travelling,
motoring or street wear.
Seeing that all-white is the rage
at present, designers are placing
special emphasis on short, and
longer ones, too, for that matter,
sports jackets made Of white vel

note of ultra chic. The hip

with a dark skirt is an outstanding
fashion.

Il should say they did," said one
poor little sand fairy, who had
been knocked over and over all the
time by the sea fairies.
But she really didn't mind. 1t
had all been quite jolly. The sea
fairies wore their fluffy white
dresses and their green shoes and
stockings. Such gorgeous green
shoes and stockings as they were.
And their collars and hats were
like gorgeous white ruffles-all
made by Mother Ocean.
All of the sea fairies were now
back in their boats and how the
breaker boats did toss and break
They roared with the fun, and the
low, deep voice of Mother Ocean
murmured all the time:
"That is right, my children. En-
Joy yourselves. You are so beau

see you"
And the sea fairies went on roll

And as they went they played

WHAT a lot of blessings won,
w en- of the yesteryears missed
in the way of pretty clothes when
they failed to recognize in velvet
an alI-the-year-round material. Be
it said in their defense, however,
that it was through no lack of ap-
probation on their part that they
failed to regard velvet as an every
day-in-the-year proposition. Had
we of this day and generation at
our disposal only such velvetS as
were as compared with the velvets
as are, we ourselves would undoubt-
edly have done as they did-con-
fine the season for velvet to a few
brief fall and winter months.
However, it is our good fortune
to live in an age when wonders
in way of discoveries and inven-
ton never cease, one of which is
velvet which is textured as delight
fully lightsOme and sheer as any
dainty fabric one might mention.
Wherefore velvet takes its place in
the list of summer materials for
now, hencefOrth and fOrevermOre.
More intriguing things are be-
ing done with velvet nowadays
than have been done, so far as his
tory relates, in all the years that
are past. Even bathing suits are
being made of velvet-but that is
another story. What we started
out to tell about is the stunning
sports coats which are being fash
ioned of velvet.
The model pictured is typical. 1t

WIN PLACE IN
SOCIAL sun FOR
WET CAMP AIGN
Women With Billion Wealth
Behind Them Attend
Anti-Dry Farley.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, April Is. -
Women with perhaps billion in
wealth behind them are endeavor-
ing here to give the anti-prohi-
bition movement place in the
social sun.
Presiding over the annual con-
ference Of the Womens Organiza-
ton for National Prohibition Re-
form is Pauline Morton, wife of
Charles Hamilton Sabin, Southamp-
ton, L. l., and the Guaranty Trust
Company, New York.
Il will recognize says Mrs. Sa-
bin, "the lady from Delaware"
The lady from Delaware is Mrs.
Pierre Du Pont, daughter of Henry
Belin and wife of the chairman Of
the board Of z. I. Du Pont De
Nemours & Co.
Same From Other States
From other states are Mrs. Stan
ley Field, whose husband is a
director Of Marshal Field & Co.
in Chicago, or Miss Belle Cur
nee, whose grandfather built the
first brick stable in Chicago and
heard it called "Curnee's folly"
because Chicago of the early day
thought brick too costly to shelter
for trotting horses.
But Walter S. Gurn3e survived
that ridicule and became mayor.
Mrs. William Cabel Bruce might
answer for the state of Maryland.
She is the wife Of the former SEN
ator and her son married Ailsa
Mellon, daughter Of the secretary
Of the treasury.
Many Millions Represented
Michigan has sent Mrs. Henry B.
JOY, whose husband was president
Of the Packard Motor Company and
now is director.
There are Mrs. r. Stuyvesant
Pierrepont of New jersey, great
granddaughter of William Cullen
Byrant; Mrs. August Belmont, Mrs.
Joseph H. Choate, Mrs. Walter
Damrosch, Mrs. Haley Fiske and
Mrs. e. Roland Hartman from New
York.
Mrs. Archibald Roosevelt, whose
husband was a son OF the President,
is among the delegates.
To wavering women who might
join the anti-prohibition cause ex-
cept for lingering doubts as to its
responsibility, it would appear the
gathering here was specially planned
to convince them.

new idea SAVES
silk hose

Expensive at best, silk hose and
undergarments are made doubly
so by improper washing. A fashion
expert has found a new, simple way
to correct this.
She adds a tablespoonful OF En-
engine to every quart of lukewarm,
soapy water. Then she washes and
rinses the articles as usual The
addition of Energine removes all
the body excretions that soften and
rot silk.
The results are amazing. Not
only does this method give new
cleanliness and freshness with
original color revived but actually
gives longer life to hose and under
garments. Try this new method of
adding Energine to soapy water.
It's easier and quicker than just
soap and water alone, means less
rubbing and insures extra wear that
will surprise you.
Energine is unexcelled, also, for
quickly removing all dirt and grease
spots from dresses, hats, gloves,
shoes, etc. Large can IS cents at
