Novelties In Velvets And Silks Popular Vcw York, Oct. 23—(U.Rb-A general survey of the silk shops in New k BtiPP lies concrete evidence of the present taste for fabiic novelties. I "ntrasted with the minimum rhowlngs of patterned fabrics last fall, the I ° appearance of slik departments is especially impressive, demonstrating ‘ tremendous growth in novelties during a single year. " Fashion fivor for printed velvets and novelty velvets of all types lias led i m as large n selection of designs as possible, all of which were specified for

delivery in time to merchandise them IB medlatdy following the Paris op- ' enings. Consequently, complete ranges are now on view, offering the consumer a width of choice that is almost without parallel in a fall season Metals have been relegated to the background in most shops, with I all attention concentrated on velvets. I Novelty is not restricted to velvets, I however. Some of the new weaves lof the vear—new satins, new moires I and new taffetas have an important I place in showings, as have a host of , I printed novelties for daytime wear. I Wool-filled crepe failles, Canton , I crepes, and flat crepes printed with I cravat and woolen designs are the I subject of much exploitation. In this I group also is included satin crepes I printed on either the dull or the ; I shiny side, the former being considI ered as somewhat more important , I this year. Moires are now shown in both I daytime and evening colors and nearI ly every shop that makes a point of I fashion is accenting some version of I printed moire—plaided, flowered, or

I eveu more simply spotted. The Ladies Aid of the Christian I church will meet Thursday afternoon I at two-thirty o'clock, with Mrs. H. L. I Merry. A good attendance is desirI ed. The members of the Ben Hur lodge I will enjoy their annual masquerade I party, Friday evening at eight o'clock | in the Yeoman Hall. All members of I Ben Hur and their friends are invitI ed.

Also, she speaks the Italian language quite fluently. The lecture was given on a platform, which had been given an Italian setting, with it's drapes of Italian scarfs, Italian cut-work and potteries. In illustrating her talk, the speaker showed some very highly colored slides which portrayed the beauty of the country, the stately architecture, Ihe famous old buildings, the leaning tower of Pisa, groups of people of all classes from the royalty down to the peasantry and blackhand. In concluding her program, Miss Berry told of the present day Italy. She recently returned from several months spent in that country, where she studied the present day political situation, and the immigration laws, she states that we get the wrong ideas of the Italian in this country because our immigration laws are such that the low classes of Italy, who are not wanted in their own country, get into America without any great trouble. The immigration laws of Italy, on the other hand, ar? very strict, and to reach the shores of Italy is a very painstaking procedure. Miss Berry is acquainted with the great Mussolini. She has seen and heard him many times and told much of his customs and the attitude of the Italians toward him. Italy is continuously pushing forward and is much more in progression than the average American would believe. The speaker has a veiy pleasing personality and holds the attention of her hearers every minute. Preceding the lecture, Mrs. John Tyndall, club president, presided over the opening and business routine of the club, after which Paul Saurer, with Mrs. France Confer at the piano, entertained with four vocal solos. Mrs. C. A. Dugan, chairman of the Literature Department of the club, then introduced Miss Berry, as the speaker of the evening. IRENE ANDREWS MARRIED SATURDAY Miss Irene Andrew:., daughter of
