NANCY PAGE
BY FLORENCE LA GANKE.

TN Clara's apartment, which she was
l. furnishing with the things heE
mother had used and which really
needed to be placed in spacious old
rooms, she found almost as many prob
lens as there were pieces Of furniture
Her landlord had repapered one bed
room and the dining room. The din
ing room was done In q white paper
with diamond pattern. The small bed
room with the flowered paper repeated
that diamond motif, which reappeared
again in the other bed room. BY re.
peating q unit many times an enect
Of unity was gained which was badly
needed in this small apartment.
For curtains in the one BED room
Clara chose unbleached muslin and
stitched bias tape on in diamonds OF
rose. The lamp shade was white, tied
with q rose cord. The base Of the
lamp was white. The sash curtains
were rose organdy.
A chair was slip-covered in un-
bleached muslin, with bands OF bias
tape stitched on in diamond pattern.
In the second bed room the landlord
had given her plain, soft yellow paper
Or at least it seemed plain, for 1t had
an almost invisible stripe in yellow.
For this room she purchased cam
dlewick bedspread on creamy white
with the candlewicking in the same
white. She split this bedspread and
made q pair of curtains, which shs
tied back with white cords. The bed
used a second bedspread Of candle
wicking.
Her lamp shade was buttercup vel
low and the base was green. There
was green in the carpet. and her pic
lures were flower prints, with many
leaves in green and q few pale yellow

Elegance and Simplicity
In Some Recent DESIGNS

pleasingly with the simple lines that
Molyneux uses through the body. In
strong contrast with the widened and
built-up shoulders still affected by
many designers, though in modified
form the captain presents a soft
slightly dropping shoulder line, grace
full and very feminine.
\
STRAIGHT tight sleeves are q feature
~ Of many of the daytime dresses
and there are other sleeves that dare
between the elbow and the wrist.
Evening gowns are sheathlike In
silhouette and trail slightly in the
back-a fluid line that is infinitely
flattering. Shoulders are bare in these
gowns, for the first time in several sea-
sons, giving an air of decided elegance
AS in other Partisan dressmaking
houses, there is wide use of the eve
ming hat, something that French de-
signers have been offering women for
several seasons and which is at last
being very definitely accepted to wear
with informal evening gowns. These
theater and cinema hats are really
nothing but the merest head covering,
so designed that they do not interfere
with the view Of those sitting behind
their wearers. Yet in their use of rich
fabrics and trimmings they give an
other opportunity for elegance in dress
As Molyneux makes them they are fiat
berets trimmed with paradise or os-
trich feathers, or toques of velvet with
q definite backward sweep.

Creating Effect of Size
BY EMILY POST.

a saving of or perhaps 6 inches Of
length. but the absence of fencelike
footboards adds to the effect OF open
space.
A third rule for increasing the effect
of size is to avoid every type of florid
ornament. Scrolls and all outlines,
which are either bulging or overworked
or restless. are bad, no matter where
they are put, but in little room they
are literally space-swallowing. One
reason for the great vogue of old Co.
lonial furnishings is that their lines are
straight and simple, and they fit into
the small sizes of present-day rooms.
Naturally, scenic papers drawn in
deep perspective like panoramas have
an almost magic ability to create an
effect of space. Such rooms. II over
small. should always have blind doors
meaning those without framing and
continuing the wall when closed. Mir
rors. needless to say, are the most en-
larging decoration that can be used.

Arranging Library Books
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

have it fall to his or her lot to take
books to and from the library. 1t may
be that this librarian for the home
has an inherent ability to select the
books to suit the different require
ments, tastes and desires in literature
of the others by whom the books are
to be used. But without such an abil-
ity, the work has its own difficulties.
A hint or two may therefore not be
unwelcome.
There are two articles which will
prove invaluable. One is an alpha
betically margined lose-leaf notebook,
the other is calendar.
The notebook Is for use by the
family as well as the one who goes to
the library. Under the headings of
the first letter Of the name OF each
member, the person writes down the
names Of books she wants to read as
she learns Of them through recon-
mendation Of friends or through book
reviews and notices. When the Ii
brarian of the family seeks to get an
assortment Of volumes with an as
surance they will please, she has but
to consult the pages of the note
book for such information. Immedi-
ately the book has been taken out, 1t
is crossed of the list, or II it is not
IN at first, the number Of the book
should be set down for ready reference
another time. This saves looking up
the number again.
The calendar should be one Of these
handy ones, with spaces by the sides
Of dates. On returning from the Ii
brary, the dates when the books will be
due-7, IA, or % days later as the
types of books are nsted-the number
of books due on each should be set
down. Many q fine is saved by this
simple method. The catalogue num-
bers may be put down also. but If the
number OF books IS written down it Is
almost as satisfactory and much less
bother.
When no titles of books wanted are
found in the note book, the family IL
brarian should select various kinds,
some novels, detective stories, q bi-
ography, book of travels. perhaps a
play, so that the different literary
tastes Of the family can be approx
imately catered to.

ORIENT PROTESTS

Occupation of South China
Sea Dots of Land StirS
Chinese, Japanese.
BY the Associated Press.


MANILA, Philippine Islands, Sep
tember 23.-The occupation by French
dispatch beats Of nine islets 200 miles
west of the Philippines in the South
China Sea was the signal for a race
between the Japanese and Chinese con-
sulates here to obtain authentic infor-
nation about the group.
K. L. Kwong, the Chinese consul
general, said he would charter a boat
and proceed to the scene himself as
soon as he received further instruc-
tions from the Chinese foreign Office
at Marking.
Atshushi Kimura, the japanese con-
sui general, said he had received In
formation tending to bear out the
Toxic foreign Office claim that the is
lets have long been visited and ex-
plotted by japanese.
Yoshiyei Tamashiro, operating the
motor ship Linapacan from Manila,
reported he visited the tiny group in
October, 1881, and found that the
largest had an area Of about three
square miles, and was a plain tract
with coconut, papaya and other trees
in abundance.
Tamashiro also told the consulate
he found a ruined cottage, japanese
fishing boat, the Tema; two big iron
water tanks and light railway truck.
Toxic dispatches said the foreign office
there cited several petitions to claim
the group for Japan, upon which no
action had been taken.
Uninhabited and lying just of the
Manila Singapore trade route, the lit
tie group attracted no attention until
the announcement In July that the
French tricolor had been raised there.
Then the officials Of q number Of
governments showed concern, 1t being
suggested the location might make the
islands a strategic airplane landing
base
From time immemorial Chinese dsh-
ermen from Hainan Island, southeast
Of Canton, are said to have visited
the group.

GLASS FRUIT DISHES

IN this day when such attractive little
low bowls can be found, with glass
plates to match, there is no reason
why every home should not have two
or three sets of them in different
colors-peach, amber, pure white, palest
green-so that stewed and fresh sliced
fruits and berries may be served in
the most attractive manner. When
placed in q transparent dish, the COM
pote Of fresh fruits, however simple. be-
comes a glad sight for the eye as well
as a morning bracer or the best kind
of dessert after hearty dinner.
A nice touch is also added when the
glass bowls are set on small lace or
lace paper dolly placed on the glass
service plate. If using white glass, the
dolly may be Of colored paper that
enhances the color of the fruit served.
Such little lace doilies are mere whisps

~APT. EDWARD MOLYNEUX, as
every fashion minded woman
I knows, is designer whose
~ clothes are eminently suitable
for the woman of the world.
They are ageleSS in their grace. and
they are limited by no geographical
boundaries, denoting, wherever and
whenever they are worn, the woman OF
good taste who Is sure Of herself and
her position in life, one who knows
how to accent her good points and soft
pedal any faults she may have.
The collection he shows this season
turns its back very definitely on
thoughts Of economy, not In any spirit
of bravado, but rather as a final ges-
ture Of reputation of unpleasant things.
r ICH fabrics are the rule, with vel
~ vets much in evidence. Sumptuous
velvet suits, worn with fur turbanS and
small velvet muffs. are representative
of an era of elegance. Velvet evening
ensembles are important, the dresses
completed by short or long capes, or
by full-length coats extravagantly trim
med with fur.
Lace is another important material
here, and MolyneuX indorses lastex,
that newcomer in the fabric world, by
using both shirred satin and lace in
lastex weaveS. Dull crepeS and heavy
moires share the spotlight with many
beautiful brocades in pale tones.
Crepey woolens and angora weaves
are used for daytime costumes. And,
as always, there are sports and street
suits developed in handsome tweeds-
the type of suit that appears to equally
good effect in town or country.
Fabric gloves are shown, IN such ma
terials as moire, taffeta, velvet or satin.
sometimes in plain colors, sometimes
in figured effects.
x X X X
TRIMMINGS are used with discre-
L ton but generously. Feathers and
flowers are everywhere apparent In the
boleros are flower bordered or edged
with deep bands of ostrich, and whole
capes of coque feathers, mounted on
chiffon or tulle, have diaphanous air.
Fur is used with a lavish hand, botn
for daytime and evening clothes. Large
fur muffs, fiat and sometimes square,
accompany almost all the daytime en-
sembles. Fox chokers, used instead OF
collars on afternoon coats, are another
touch of luxury. Dress sleeves are fin-
ished at the bottom with wide fur
bands, and the capeS which nave come
in as part of three or four piece wool
ensembles almost invariably are richly
fur-trimmed. Astrakhan, mink, silver
or blue fox. skunk and beaver are the
favorite pelts.
Colors are glamorous and vibrant
Greens, from the palest tones to deep
dull shades; blues, playing the color
gamut from baby blue, through peri
winkle, to the deepest of midnight
tones; rich bordeaux reds and coral
pinks are particularly noticeable when
seen against the more somber back
ground of Molyneux's color scheme
gray, black and the browns and beiges
he always favors. Then there are such
lovely and unusual combinations of
color as zinnia yellow against black,
the new dull green used with q deep
purply black, and peach contrasted
with navy blue.
As to line-it is definitely conserva-
tive, and Just as definitely lovely.
Capes and cape effects are used In
every type Of dress. These, when worn
by tall. slender women. contrast very
