What's in Fashion?
old Adage Is Tip for Bride
Directed 81 AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK. March 1.--"Some>
~ thing old and something new;
something borrowed and something
blue" Those are the proverbial re-
quirements for the bride who's to
have good fortune follow her. And
this springs bride can have them
all-smartly.
For her something Old" she
fashionably can follow the old ira
dition of cleaning ivory satin for
her gown. With, perhaps, a touch
of really old lace, handed down
from her grandmother'S wedding
gown.
For her Something new" she
can choose any one of many new
bridal dress details. A low-cut back
with high-cut front; a separate
long-Sleeved jacket over a sleeve
less dress; a Surplice neckline with
a softly rolled collar; the front of
her gown made of lace and the back
of satin.
Borrowed Part Is Easy
Something borrowed" That's
easy. For fashionable wedding
gowns have borrowed from regular
daytime dresses the cloSe-fitting.
moulded silhouette with high waist
line, slim hips and defined bodice.
And for her Something blue" her
bridesmaids dresses. Blue is one of
springs newest colors for these cos
tunes.
Plenty of things new for this
springs bride. But many will pre-
fer the claoSically simple satin gown
with high, softly draped neckline,
long fitted sleeves. fitted waiStline
and sweeping train.
Those who choose this will be
smartly correct. And after all.
there's nothing lovelier.
Lace and Satin Combined
But for something newer, there
are combinations of lace and satin.
Sometimes the entire bodice and
sleeves are of lace with the rest of
the dress in satin.
Or a lace panel may extend down
the front or back of the skirt. Or
a panel at each side.
Sometimes the dress is of satin
with a short lace jacket to wear

Board Of the indianapolis League
Of Women Voters in session this
morning at the home of Mrs.
Thomas Sheerin, 1880 Central av-

probation workers, with authority to
enforce their recommendations.
The board also voted to request
the convention to adopt rs one of
the league legislative measures as
extensive reorganization of county
and township government as can
be effected through action of the
legislature and to work for amend
ments to the state constitution to
eliminate some of the elective coun-
ty officials.
The indianapolis group will send
a large delegation to the con-
vention, headed by Mrs. Walter S.
Greenough, president; Mrs. Warren

Wool Comes to Fore as Smart and
AriStOC1utic Choice for Costumes
BY ROSETTE
NFA Service Writer

DARIS. March lit was not so
4 very many years ago that a
wooden dress was synonymous Of
poverty, a social disgrace almost,
and the symbol Of self-effacement in
woman.
In many of the novels written be-
fore the war and its consequent era
Of realism, the orphan, the repent
ant M~agdalene and the little
country girl wore wooden dresses. In
these tales. brown wool was usually
the color chosen by the patient, but
humble wife of the black sheep, and
white was reserved to her aristo-
cratic sister.
Times have changed and today a
wool dress is the choice of the rich,
the smart and the aristocratic. Silk
has become altogether too popular
to be chic, not to mention too OBJ
viously brilliant.
The influence of sports may per-
hapS be held responsible for the
vogue of wool in fashions and wool
manufacturers have achieved mir
acles Of suppleness, lightness and
design, not to speak of colorings,
which were undreamed-of twenty
years ago.
TINE art of the Partisan coutu-
Il rier is seen at its best in the
apparently simple little wooden
dress. 1t is much simpler to Gre
ate a successful model in silk than
it is in wool, or rather one that
will f1atter more women. But an
exquisitely cut wooden frock has
that unmistakable air of elegance
which all women aspire to.
The very latest creations now
shown indicate that wool will oc-
cupy a still more important place
in spring fashions. The tentative
bias seamings that were such a
success at the outset of the winter
have been the object of further
study, but it is amazing what two
or three bias seams will do to a
dress and the way it sets and clings
to the figure.
The line is perfect and becoming,
and the subtle charm of this cut,
although not as self-evident as
some complicated effects, is appre-
ciated by women of discernment.
The only drawback of these bias
seams and the use of material on
the bias is that the cut must be
absolutely sure and faultless, other
wise the result is worse than hope
less.
BUTTONS decorate many of these
ID wool creations, while color con-
trasts sometimes constitute the only
trimming. Pique seemingly will con-
tinue to fulfill this function of
furnishing a note of contrast and
fancy or figured wool fabrics offer
an alternative choice.
The finishing touch to a wool
dress, however, which will crown its
success, will be the wisely selected
accessories, and spring will bring
shoes, belts, gloves and bags all
matching perfectly, or again, the
contrast will be furnished by lighter
or darker gloves, flower and bag.
Brown and beiges frightened by
orange, red and green will be fash
ionable, with a sprinkling of dull
reds and a great deal of navy blue.
Lanvin offers a black wool dress
completed by a shoulder cape of dull
rose that is a perfect combination
and which also heralds the appear
ance of the shoulder cane as a
spring fashion feature of impor-

OPPORTUNITY IS OURS

Editor, Tribune:
With each new day opportunity
presents itself to us and If we are
only willing to heed its reckoning.
remarkable change in our condi-
lions will take place.
When short crop years overtake
us and low prices become our lot,
We begin to think seriously OF pos
sible ways to overcome our difficult
ties.
The writer believes that it is about
time to change our farming meth
DDS, to plant more of such crops
which will not be affected by the
world markets. Wheat as q cash crop
will not, for many years to come, be
OF any value to our farmers. The
output Of other countries will be in
creased, and It therefore follows that
with the great production cost and
with frequent droughts, which oc-
cur most every year in some section
of the state, 1t has become a hap
hazard proposition. It is therefore
necessary that more attention be CIV

bring only half price. Forage crops
must be produced and put in the
hands OF liberal feeder and by so
doing dairy animals will respond
with great rewards.
Protection must be provided against
scorching sun and cold wintry

to all classes of livestock and even

cause an outlay of money, but will
prove boon in the long run and will
enhance the farmers holdings very
materially.
Farmers. in general. can produce
everything necessary in the line of
fruit and vegetables for their need
and any surplus will find ready
market in the city.
It has been said that in many places
trees will not grow. but this is far
from actual facts. Many varieties of
shade trees as well as fruit trees may
be had at a small cost and by cor
rect planting methods, even on ground
with a hard pan subsoil, will do well
and thrive.
This has been repeatedly proven.
It Of course will require some good
labor, but it's worth it. Trees around

CLOUDED PERSPECTIVE
Wing, No. Oak.

Vd1l. :, 1907
Editor, Tribune:
What do I see? see q nation OF
people whose perspective has been
clouded with visions Of wealth. A
people who couldn't stand prosperity.
A people who have struggled for
wealth, not for Its sake. but for the
sake OF the luxuries they have come
to look upon as necessities.
Had we stopped buying when our
money was gone. had we quit expend-
Ing when our limit was reached, the
depression would not have hurt us.
But when we had exhausted our sur
plus we used our credit far beyond
its value. Thus, we were badly Grip
pied when adversely overlook us: a
business depression largely due to our
own actions-a vicious circle.
There are those who say that the
depression is due to the war. In a
measure this Is true, but they cannot
deny that II we had the money we
had foolishly spent we could pay our
taxes, interest and in many cases sub
stantially reduce our debts.
It Is up to us as individuals to
salvage what we can and with it as
basis. build on a firm foundation
for the future. We do not need a
leader. II we sit meekly waiting for
an intellectual giant to take us by
the hand and lead us into Utopia, we
do not deserve the return of pros
perity.
Constructive criticism will be OF
value to us in our climb, but mali
cious criticism of our government and
OF millionaireS will not aid us. We
are the government. We made the
millionaire. It lies In our power to
reshape the government but we cam
not un-make the millionaire.
Therefore. let's quit grabbing. and
with the example Of the past before
us, roll up our sleeves. tighten our
belts. turn our faces to the future,
get busy and show the world the way
out Of this financial moraSs.
