MYTH the midWinter social sea-
w son upon us and festivities at
southern resorts going at high tenn
po, smart women everywhere are
preoccupied with new evening
gowns to add glamour to time, place
and the occasion. Greater formal
ity than in years is the rule, and
women are playing up to this edict
by wearing gowns of rare beauty
and richness.
One may belong to either of two
schools of fashion-that which ia
vors heavy stiff heirloomlike silks
with regal air or the type which
favors diaphanous sheer silks that
float about one enchantingly as one
dances or promenades in the great
concourse of fashion.
Stiff silk satins such as slipper
satin or duchess satin are lovely
choices for dramatic gowns. The
delicious" colors of these glorified
satins are simply entrancing-make
you think of moonlit rays that go
glimmering over ripping waves, or
icy blues that crown snow-capped
mountains or the lovely tints of the
rainbow as it enhances summer
skies.
To be style-correct these stately
satins should be fashioned along
graceful lines with quaint artfully
gored skirts that sweep into wild
ened hemlines. See the model to
the left in the illustration. 1t is
frock of Edwardian period influence
done in ice-blue satin with the new
shirred bosom styling. The puffed
sleeves and princess lines achieve
charming youthful silhouette. The
diamond sunburst worn suggests an

heirloom that accords harmoniously
with the type of silk used for the
gown-a silk so grand and stiff it,
as was the boast in grandma's time,
would stand alone"
Some of the newest silk satins
are studded with gold or silver Sc
quins or rhinestones. To the right
in the picture stands a modern
Juliet gowned in gardenia white
satin, all over starred with gold
paillettes with halter neck of match
ing pailletted banding. Accessory
highSpotS include a Juliet cap and
a handbag done in gold paillettes,
together with an exquisite white er-
mine coat.
Warp printed silk taffetas have
new looking patterns such as col
orful boW-knotS in vivid hues on
white or green. Centered in the
group modern Jenny Lind greets
us in a rustling silk taffeta frock
Warp-printed with red boW-knots.
With it this lovely lady wears pale
pink kid gloves embroidered in gold
and pearls. The new and fashion
able gloves featured this season are
veritable works of art. There are
pearls at the throat of this fair
lady and she wears a sWank pearl
bracelet.
Other charming versions of the
princess dinner and dance gown are
done in stiff Lyons velvets with
puffed sleeves and buttons all the
way down the front. Rich silk da-
masks are also fashioned in prin-
cess lines made square-necked, in
puff-sleeve styles which look like
EdWardian ladies come back to life.

First Pendulum Clock
'Prayers for the Dead'
By FLOYD GIBBONS
Famous Headline Hunter

In 1858 the Dutch astronomer
Huygens produced the first pen
dulum clock, the pendulum being
a means to regulate the escapement
-(it doesn't make the clock go,
as many people suppose0 This
was a great step forward, and the
type of clock developed, with its
tall case and swinging pendulum,
is a familiar piece of furniture in
the Railways of our homes. Many
of these pendulum clocks were
made in the American colonies, or
imported from England and Hol-
land before the Revolution.

BLACK SHEERS FOR
DAY AND EVENING

For daytime sheer black Woolens
are smartly in fashion, and for eve
ming the vogue for black nets and
chiffons is everywhere apparent.
Just now fringe trimming is i'm
portant on the afternoon black
sheer. The narrow fringe, placed
row and row, forms cunning short
cap-like sleeves with accents of
fringe elsewhere on the bodice or at
sash ends, or that which is tre-
mendously chic-outlining the skirt
hemline.
In the early shoWings the new
daytime black sheers are feminized
with the daintiest of white lingerie
details in form or frilly jabots, and
novel cuffs and becoming collars
and bib effects.
The party-frock nets in black
are made up in full-skirted styles
with just yards and yards floating
about.

Harvest in Hungary

In Hungary the harvest season
is celebrated with village festivals
and professions in which peasants
march carrying rakes, scythes, sick
les and other tools decorated with
ribbons and flowers. Two men carry
on their shoulders pole from which
hangs a harvest crown, made of
several kinds of grain and decked
out with pink and blue paper flow
ers and bits of ribbon, says Grace
Humphrey in Hungary, Land of
Contrasts" The afternoon is spent
in singing and dancing to gypsy
music, and is climaxed with a great
supper of goulash, potatoes, papri-
ka, onions and wine.

tweeds in beige and gowns of light
