There's still the pencil silhou-
cite for daytime, which is more
extreme in Paris than it is in
America. There they make a
skirt as slim as possible, and
slit it to the knee SO that you

American Pencils
The American version of the
pencil silhouette is less ex-
IRENE. Lines are as straight as
possible, and usually pleats are
let in at the knees or there
abouts to give the necessary
fullness. Sits are used some
times but they are not as
frank as those of the French.
Then there's the broken slim
silhouette. Sometimes it fol-
lows the minaret lines with
which we became familiar two
or three years ago. That means
that there are two or more pro-
jections from the general SLIM
ness in the form of a cape, a
peplum, or a flounce placed
lower, sometimes all of them.
These new lines are called by
various names, from the lamp

enough at the top to give the
jutting appearance of its name
sake, the lampshade. And there
is the long slim silhouette with
fullness only at the bottom, the
flounce idea that we are already
familiar with.
And some clothes are slim
in the bodice and full in the
skirt, in period fashion. and
still others have a suggestion
of a peg top in the skirt Sec

You can easily see that it's
mostly matter of choice, and if
your silhouette is slim with an

The job that has been done
on Stoneleigh Court is really
marvellous. If you remember
the old interior, with big ram
bling rooms, halls like lab
ryinths, kitchens that were posi-
lively unpleasant, baths nearly
as bad, you will find it hard to
believe that the present interior
has been made from the old.
To my mind, the worst period
we've ever had was rampant at
the time the house was built.

dark wood paneling . hand
some no doubt in its time, and
gas logs were in all the apart
mentS.
Completely Changed
The interior has been changed
completely, even to the position
of the walls, and halls have
been cut through the building,
to make apartments more &C
cessible. Excellent arrangement
prevails now. Closets are roomy
and frequent. Rooms are OF
nice size, large enough but not
gigantic.
Apartments are from one
room with bath and kitchen, on
up. The one-room apartments
have big closets with roll-away
beds, so that your room may be
furnished entirely as a living
room.
Old Floors Retained
The woodwork has been done
over entirely, walls of course re-
papered, and the old floors,
with a beautiful dark patina,
have been retained. Instead of
the old tile floors in the outside
halls a beautiful thick carpet
comforts your feet. There's
much more to be said, which
space doesn't permit today, so
we will take up the fine points
of decoration tomorrow.
