WASHINGTON FASHIONS

The washington fashion
world has been all agog for some
time over broadcloth evening
gowns, and have been anxiously
awaiting their coming. Now
they're in town, and they come
I'D to all expectations. Evening
gowns seem to hang much OF
their Importance on their iabrics
this year, with almost every fab
ric used q novelty, and broad
cloth is probably the most un-
usual. Velvets, to be different
are dull and uncut, laces have a
metal thread woven in, crepes
and satins are rough and
bumpy, and there are stark in
novationS, if you want to be even
more different, such as broad
cloth and corduroy.
In Old COlOrs
Broadcloth had a Paris origin,
as most fashions do, and 1t fits
into this autumn mode particu-
larly well, because it's a revival,
dated around 1900 and soon
after. Charming evening gowns
of apricot or mauve broadcloth
were worn then, trimmed with
velvet. They are Smartest this
fall in Victorian or Edwardian
colors, and although they may
be made in a rather sophisti-
Gated fashion, they still smack
of romantic days.
Medieval brown, a rich tone,
is the color Of the broadcloth
gown we've sketched today. It
is as much of a supper dress as
a formal gown. and it can be
worn for all those occasions
after sundown that are semi-for-
NAL. It has a medium low back,
and bows on the shoulder that
serve a double purpose, to cover
the shoulders, and to give that
very wide effect that is now so
important. There is a tailored
belt, fastened with a stunning,
glittering rhinestone buckle.
The gown is in a medium price
range.
For further fashion infOrma-
tiOn, or for the name of the
store where you can find this
dress. write Miss Laville, encIos-
ing q seH-addreSed, stamped
envelope, or call District $3.50,

The Rhymins
O Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS

Away With Care!
Away with careI Old folly's
reign Is done,
Old useless thoughts Of woel
With faces lifted up to greet
the sun,
Bravehearted, let US gol
Too long have anxious hearts
been bowed by grief,
When, had they turned from
pain,
Their time for weeping would
have been as brief
AS April hours of rain.
Away with carel There is new
bliss each morn
For him who, seeking, goes
Unfettered by old memories for
lorn,
Unvexed by by-gone woes.
There is a portent in the dawn
ofg day
That hints Of things sublime,
For when the nights dark wells
are drawn away
Earth seems untouched by
time.
The soul, as well, should fling
its cares aside,
Should go in victory
With no regrets for any gifts
denied,
Unfettered. proud and freel

Advice to the LoveIorn
By Beatrice Fairfax

when they fall and hurt them
selves, It'll be well and for
gotten by the time you're twice
married"
So you young people who
love and hate each other in
varying degrees, will all per-
hapS look back on these high
school days when you loved a
boy who cared more for some
one else and vice versa, as a
very happy time indeed, in
spite of this mix-up in the af-
fections. But do write me
again in a few weeks and tell
ne If you've all Strengthened
things out.
is Interested in Her Instructor
Dear Miss Fairgax:
I am Move with a man who
is about 80, while I am in my
early teens. He used to be one
of my subject teachers at
school.
OF course, he doesn't know
how I feel toward him. We
meet now and then to exchange
words, but that is all.
How can I make him realize
this, and find out his reac-
tions? Please advise me. Hop
ing to see this published in the
paper soon.
DOWNHEARTED.
Judging from letters that
come to me, especially at this
time of the year when vaca-
tionS separate pupils from In
structors, a good many Of the
former realize they are in love
with the latter. Or think
they're in love-and now, I'm
going to tell you a secret. If
this love affair makes you want
to shine as a pupil, make high
marks at the next school Ses-
sion, it's a good thing. But
my dear, a girl in her early
teens is pretty young to take
seriously a man Of 80 who has
never intimated that he is in
terested in her. Be an out
standing pupil-don't worry
over his reactions.

Tired Of DecetVing Parents
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am II years old, and keep
company with a boy of 18. In
fact, I have been going with
him for two years, against my
parents wishes. The reason
they do not wish us to go to-
gether is because we are Of diff
ferent religions. II I come in
after 10 O'Clock, my dad queS-
tions me as to where I have
been. Of course, I lie and say
I've been at my girl friends,
but I can't lie forever, can I?
Would you please advise me as
to whether I should continue
going with this boy, or should
1 lie to my dad whom I love
also? A FRIEND.
My dear young friend, I
can't advise you too strongly
against going out with a boy
against your fathers wishes.
The little fun you may have
together will be absolutely
counterbalanced by the un-
comfortable feeling you must
have because you are not play
ing fair with your father. This
dad of yours seems a pretty
nice sort, from what you say
Of him in your letter, which is
too long to print in full. If
the boy has fine ideals, why
not talk it over with him and
he will agree, am sure, that it
would be best to part as good
friends, rather than continue
this forbidden courtShip.
, Rather a Tangled Skein
Dear Miss Fairfax:
don't know where or how to
begin. My girl friend is in
love with a boy I know quite
we'll. I go out with this fel-
lows boy friend, the four Of
us going together.
Her boy friend is in love with
me, at least he said he is. He
told me he loved me, not in
front of her, but after he had
taken her home. The boy I 60
out with has a car. I don't
care for either of these boys,
except as friends.
like another boy and he
doesn't know it. Now my girl
friend accuses me Of trying to
steal her beau away from her.
You see, she doesn't know that
he likes me and I wouldn't
have the heart to tell her. I'm
not trying to steal him, in fact,
I'm rather cold to him because
I wouldn't want to hurt her.
He asked me to marry him, but
I don't love him, and besides,
I'm under age. The boy that I
go out with likes my girl
friend. but she dislikes him.

The Brides Gown
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Will you kindly tell me if the
groom pays for the wedding
gown. or if the bride pays for
it? My friend and have been
arguing over the question. r.
There is no cause for argu-
ment about this question, dear

most definite kind. The bride
or her family pays for the we'd
ding gown. For the groom to

Formulation of a program for
a simple, dignified Roosevelt in,
augural, with just dash of color
and military display, will begin
here tomorrow when DR.. Cary T.
Grayson, inaugural committee
chairman, buckles down to his
three-months task.
After extended conferences with
President-elect Roosevelt in Warm
Springs, Ca, DR.. Grayson re.
turned here last night with a
Roosevelt o. K. on practically all
the suggestions he and other Dis.
trict Democrats had evolved for
the ceremonies next March 4.
The President-elect consented
to sponsor a charity ball, ar.
ranged by District groups, but not
an official dance. The President
will not attend this affair, but
members of his family will. All
proceeds, above modest expenses,
are to go to charity.
Because of expense it was de-
cided not to have in the parade
the cadets from West Point and
the midshipmen from Annapolis.
There will be a few service bands.
Economy is the theme of the en-
tire program.
