an amateur is the strength OF the
dissatisfaction he feels toward his
own performances, not diSSat1stac-
ton which diSCourages but one which
acts as a spur to continued endeavor.
The study Of music is as interesting
and stimulating as a world tour,
where one explores the corners Of the
earth and from each reaps reward
of greater knowledge. Therefore, to
be satisfied with the musical journey
up to a certain point is to close the
door on all the beauties that remain
to be discovered and stunt the artistic
growth.
When a finished student embarks
on a public career he might be said
to be facing a Jungle where hide un-
seen individuals waiting TO destroy
him. The struggle through to fame
means overcoming criticism by the
many. waiting and watching for every
weakness in technique, musicianshlp
or presentations to reveal itself. The
only way to do this is not to discard
q criticism because 1t goes counter to
the individuals opinion of himself,
but rather to analyze and apply II,
after mature judgment. 1t is found TO
be correct and helpful.
Most of the celebrated artists at the
height of their career still consider
the criticisms of competent judges
as a means of checking up on their
artistic status. The difficulty with
less renowned musicians is their re-
hellion against anything else but
praise for whatever they accomplish.
1t is not the amount of work that
counts, but the manner in which it is
done. Constant praise tends to dull
self-criticiSm which a student may
have while preparing bitter expert
ences for the future either in diSSo-
luton or actually moral suffering
from the unkindness of the world.
In the professional world it is not
so much the most talented but the
most persevering who succeeds. And
perservering means not only continual
work but dissection of ideas and
progress. Criticism even of the young
est aspirant to musical consideration
is to be invited. A definition of
criticism says it signifies especially
Judgment founded on analysis" and
again criticism implies scrutiny and
Judgment. whether for or against" "A
critic ought justly to weigh the merits
or dement's, but of the two his Office
is rather to blame than to praise;
much less injury will accrue from the
severity than the laxity of criticism"
If band of tolerance could be
established between musicians ans
their critics. then constructive work
could be accomplished for the raising
of the musical standard of any CEN
ter. A willingness to listen to words
of advice honestly given and without
bias, would keep alive the musical
spirit of community and serve as
encouragement during the trying as

The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1935-01-18

Tor sheer loneliness whenever, wher-
l. ever, II ever has eye beheld a more
enhancing array of lace evening gowns
than those which are now grazing the
midwinter social scene When we say
sheer loveliness we mean just that
sheer and lovely as the smart new
laces and nets, .chiffons and mar
quisettes can make the party frocks
and evening formals now 30 voguish.
The Importance of lace and net and
various beauteous sheers Of similar
character cannot be over emphasized.
Reports pour in from Paris in regard
to the enthusiasm shown for gowns
that are that thin and fiuttery and
diaphanous they needs must be made
over foundational slips Of silk, or
satin, crepe or lame.
In describing the group of distin-
guIshed lace fashions pictured, we are
so enthusiastic about the superbly
trio we are going to tell about 1t first.
1t Is q wedding gown which Is real
style news, gives 1t an added touch of
glamor and romance, too. More and
more brides are intrigued with the
idea of lace for the all-important
nuptial event. One of the reasons,
perhaps, is that lace is so luxurious
and beautiful in itself, it needs no fur
bellows and intricate cutting to en-
nance 1t. Silver lace is particularly
sumptuous and it makes a really
thrilling wedding gown. Ardanse of
Paris, whose creations are ever strik-
ingly original, creates this exquisite
bridal costume Of this silver lace. 1t
has square court train which may
be draped as wrap, as here shown,
which makes it practical for the bride
to wear as an evening gown later. A
white satin godet is inserted at the
side-front. The same satin borders
the train, also the long sleeves.

NEW WRINKLES IN
SPRING SHOWINCS

Peplums and pleats are the new
wrinkles In advance style showings for
spring, and In last-word touches for
mid-winter costumes.
Pleats are cropping out all over the
place-in evening gowns and daytime
frocks, used to give skirt fullness in
back or front, or to add character to q
peplum flare.
They are showing up even In hat
brims and In scarfs, In hustle effects
on evening gowns and In whole skirts
for formal costumes of the naughty
nineties school.
The TERED cape In starched net gains
distinction II the net is pleated.
Sheer evening gowns are knockouts
with voluminous skirts knife-pleated
from waist to floor, with an additional
pleated peplum fare on the fitted
waist-length jacket.

Wide Belts and Princess
Lines Are Now Emphasized

Two fashion specifcations-wide
belts and princess lines-are empha-
sized to degree that makes 1t seem
certain that there's to be no fooling
about women keeping their waistlines
well corseted and smooth.
In either case, 1t must be carefully
and thoroughly digested that 1t is not
a pulled-in or nipped waistline. Wide
belts are now shaped so that they have
a curved profile to coincide with the
natural waistline, and thus putting a
stop once and for all to the abrupt cut
at top and bottom that has been the
big drawback in wide belts In the past.

centered In the picture, Patou has very
ingeniously contrived to coax youth
full little peplum to circle the hips and
go ruffling down the back. From the
picture one might easily fancy that
net of large open mesh fashioned this
dress instead Of lace. However. 1t Is
really a rather heavy lace, smartly
patterned in a conventional design
which is younger looking than the
more formal and ornate erals. There
is just enough sophistication about
this dainty frock to appeal to the bud
"just out" in society who aspires to
poise and dignity.
Speaking Of the new net frocks, like
wise the now-so-voguish marquisettes,
they are going in for color for all they
are worth, unusual tones such as rasp-
berry, violet (said to be the coming

In regard to the gown illustrated to

enchantment of the lace which fash
ions it. For this gown Of classic SIM
plicity Callot uses gorgeous copper
colored lame lace, posing it over a
white creepy silk slip. The collar Of
white cog feathers is grand climax.
A word should be spoken in regard
to the tendency this season to employ
laces of filmy texture both in colors
and black. The newer black lace
dresses hold one almost spellbound in
their fragile beauty. Then, too, among
recent showings are stunning lace
modes which display riot of fine
knife pleatings which form wide
ounces and bertha off-shoulder decol-
lettes and shoulder capes and other
captivating details.
