The coat fabrics we've dis
cussed before, but to repeat in
small space. the bark" types
are the most popular, and they
vary considerably. Practically
all the materials have surface
interest in the way of rough.

Suits are made of about the
same materials.
UNUSUAL NOVELTIES
You will find a good many
novelties for the higher priced
costumes woven with a fine
metal thread, either in regular
design such as a stripe, check
or plaid, or mixed in unevenly.
Cellophane threads, rayon with
a high brilliance, and other de-
cidedly different threads often
are used with great effect.
Dress materials are even more
interesting. Marvellous things
have been done in the way of
weave, with all sorts of knitted
looking ideas brought out, with
silk crepe rough and crinkly,
with cloky or marocain effects
still good, and with velvets ex-
cellent, and in many new yer.
Sions.
METAL THREADS CLEAN
There are lovely jacquards
and knitted looking weaves with
the tiniest thread of metal or
cellophane which just gives the
effect of gleam, just lights up
the shadows of the weave.
Others are frankly shiny, and
are a refreshing change after
long years of plainneSs.
We have photograph Of a
cellophane evening gown, which
is so much better looking than
it sounds. 1t is coarsely woven,
has a good CLINT, and is heavy
enough so that it hangs straight
and beautifully. Of course, it is
made with extreme simplicity,
as the material is unusual
enough to make the gown dis
tinguiShed.

A large hat made of fine

Morning in the Bois

R1S In spite Of the

garden parties and evening fes-

were to be seen each morning

heavily charged social program
during the Big Week." would
dream of foregoing the morning
promenade in the Acacias be-
tween eleven and twelve.
For these occasions, the
straight dress often replaces a
classical morning tailleur during
very hot days. These little
dresses are either in natural
flax linen or in cool rayon crepe.
White worn with navy blue is
more popular than ever. 1t is
used in rayon crepe, while
natural beige prevails for flax
linen dresses. Most of these
little dresses show either
basque effect or are two-piece
ensembles.
A simple model that is very
popular, both in linen and in
acetate crepe, consists of a
straight skirt with box pleats,
the waist having a plain square
neck opening entirely fastened
in front with wood or compost
ton buttons to give a jacket
effect. A belt in the same ma

Moth Proof Fabric

There's a new mohalr fabric
on the market, designed for up
holstering furniture, which is
moth proof. guaranteed to be
so for five years. That is good
news indeed.
Let us hope the secret of this
happy discovery will soon get to
the manufacturers of dress goods
too. They're using it for drapery
fabric also now, and there's no
reason why clothing shouldn't
be moth-proofed in time. It
would take a vast amount of
work from the shoulders of every

be available this fall.

White Flannel
Makes a Suit

White flannels are we'll known
to us, and usually mean trou-

now on probably will mean a
whole suit of the material.
Such suits are considered of
ranking Importance in the trop-
ical countries, and will no doubt
become as popular here, be-
cause they are so very good
looking. We have pictured a
smart double-breasted flannel
suit in a herringbone weave.
The coat is cut over the Eng
lish drape model with extended
shoulder, soft chest construc-
tion, slightly suppressed waist
line, and the coat is of gen.
erous length. Flannel also comes
in a model with easy-swinging
back. and the same styles are

Paraguay, Bolivia Ready to

Report.

BUENOS AIRES. Aug. 31.-Hope
waxed strong today that the bitter
two years war in the Green Hell
of the Gran Chaco might be ended
quickly through peace efforts OF
the United States, Brazil and Ar
gentina.
Paraguay has accepted a proposal
by the three powers for immediate
cessation of fighting. President
Daniel Salamanca of Bolivia is ex-
pected to reply to the proposal dur
ing the weekend.
Simultaneously, the United States
is expected to answer a Bolivian in
quiry as to the legal. or turidical
significance of a truce as 1t con-
Germs possible failure of peace nego-
tiationS.
1t was believed that President
Salamanca, who was at the fight
ing front today, was consulting his
generals as to the advisability Of
accepting the peace offer.
Chances of acceptance seemed
heightened by the fact that dis
patches from the front showed
Bolivia to be in parlous position
with the rainy season approaching.
Within less than two weeks the
Paraguayans, led by a brilliant
French-trained commander-in-chief,
have captured eleven Bolivian forts.

Utopia Within Fifty
Years in u. S.

Like Tennyson, Agriculture Secre-
tary Henry A. Wallace dipped into
the future today and saw fifty years
hence in America white-collar
peasantry wherein science will toll
and Americans will relax in pas
toral Utopia.
Mr.. Wallace ventured his forecast
between trains carrying him from
Memphis to Des Moines. From Des
Moines he said he would make a
short drive over Iowa, arriving back
in Washington early next week.
He said science would do for in
dividual production what it has
done to replace man in the factories
it will do to replace work in the
fields.
A Crude example" was given,
that of a rake that would take the
hay and grain from the fields with
out the aid of man, other than the
pressing of an electric power con-
troll Machines would do the house
work for the farm wife and the
field work for the farmer.
There is lag Of fifty years in
science and its application to mans
production, Mr. Wallace
said. THE farmer has not taken
the full fruits of the paved high
ways and electric power. 1 think
there is idealism in the plans of
Ford and Firestone when they ad-
vocate subsistence farming.
why is it not as reasonable that
science can replace the toll on the
farm as it has in the modern fac
tory? After all, a dignified peas
antry leads to stability. Science in
