SILHOUETTE TRENDS
FOR EVENING DRESS
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

Outside of that the pencil-slim
Directoire with its high slit skirt
and the revival of the Empress Eu-
genia. there is a definite tendency
in many houses to a Spanish type
OF dress. This is usually marked
by hounce ruffles. And one must
not forget the gently widened skirt
as evidenced also in the afternoon
clothes. The most startling bit of
material used in this has been the
placing of various types of lace over
lame to give the firmness and stiff
ness required. One more skirt
and the silhouette can be settled.
That is the short front. This varies
from the gradation effect to those
cut off clear to the knees in front
to show a filmy petticoat of ruffied

Directoire are skirts which are cut
away like mans coat, to the knees

Russia Warns Japan

the Sino-Japanese conflict. With the
equivalent of "Oh, yeah?", Russia
retorted with a stern warning that
it would hold Japan responsible for
any bombing Of the embassy, inten-
tional or accidental. The Soviet Of

ported plot pure prevarication
