lines. The EXTENDED shoulder Is Sllgnt-
ly gathered to make fullness through
the upper portion, which is held in
place with heavy cord Of the ma

it loops and curves around to the back

front of the waistline. The long ends
are finished with silver thread balls.
One shop has made special raid
on New York merchants to secure some
outstanding evening gowns in Shore
ham blue. One of these has many
ruff1es of net, and is girdled with
fuchsia velvet Another net frock has
Ncorselet girdle of metal cloth. There
is royal blue taffeta dinner dress
again using the contrast color of
fuchsia and blue velvet with a
Schiaparelli FREELY jacket.
This deep blue is a grand color for
the sub-deb who Graves sophisticated
looking dark evening frock, when her
mother strongly objects to black. II
she is blond, she can wear royal blue
and various other shades beautifully.
The very decided brunette with blue
eyes also wears blue with f1attering
results.
RUT all the blues are not confined to
after-dark hours. They are seen
in gay little lightweight woolens for
sport and crepes for afternoon. A
blue and gray softly blended plaid Of
rabbits hair is cut entirely on the
diagonal. A purply blue crepe for
afternoon uses small silver nail heads
and tiny leaves in a pattern around
the neck and on the two pockets of
the skirt. Another dress has a center
front seam with gathered drapery
through the midriff. A gray-blue
shirtmaker dress has accents Of
black on the pocket, uses a black
kid belt and black upper to the
waistline in the back. This would be
smart with black coat and hat.
And all the blues are not dark.
There's dainty faded blue brocade
with tiny pale floral design that Is
quantity demure with its fitted bodice
and full skirt and q young looking
robins egg blue slipper satin, with
off shoulder puffs and q lovely skirt
with a quilted scroll design around
the bottom. This extends up over the
shorter -at-front scallop which shows
the slippers to such a good advantage.

ITO SAVE you from too severe a case
L of "blues," let us talk about
something else. Let's talk about
two things that woman cherishes,
and that reflect her personality per-
haps even more than her clothes.
These two things are her perfumes
and her jewels. They are the most
intimate and telling revelations of
herself For this reason 1t is not
too much to say that there can be
q definite relation between the two
and the woman who wears them.
It's really a fascinating subject.
Take, for instance, your birth month
and let us say it is September-then
you know that your birthstone is a
! sapphire. (How we do get back to
blue againD OF course, it is lucky
to wear your birthstone. This ce-
| lestial hue is the blue Of hope and
suggests anticipation of things to
come, according to our informant
who has studied it all out. He be-
lieves that perfume can have the
same power Of exciting the JOY of hope
that the sapphire gives to its wearer
and she will be completely happy in
the enjoyment of this harmonious
combination of jewel and fragrance
It's quite like having the incest
part Of your fortune told-this match
ing Of perfume to personality based
on your own birthday. There's = max
in town this week at = local shop who
is telling these charming fortunes
Don't let him get away without hear
ing yours.
