SHUTS HE LENGTH .: PARIS' FALL DECREE

Too Bevealing For Women Here, tltty Will Probably Be Modified— Other Autmna Hint*.

CHICAGO. HI., Sept. 24.—Here's the wry latest news of styles a la Paris, la New Torfc. and a la Chicago. They will be different in each city. Here's the reason, according to two buyers of a State street department •tore just back from Paris.

The New York styles are somewhat tfowdy. The women's Rkirts are so Kmc they look as if they were falling

Chicago girls can't stand for that. The Paris styles—well, they're wearlav 'em knee length. Not just below the kAee, mind you at the knee. Chlcaffo girls can't stand for that At wast that's what the buyers say. "Modesty and convenience will grovera the styles in Chicago," declared the buyers. **l ne Paris skirts are too short for modesty. The New York ones are too long and tight for comfort and tor a good appearance. Chicago will strike a happy medium. All skirts will h® very tight, however." i Private Style Sho\e. la order that the style sews might be relayed quickly to the expectant thousands. Miss Alice J. Nichols and lAiss Mary I. Murphy, the two buyers, yesterday arranged a private style show for a flock of feminine reporters and one male reportor.

After witnessing the show, one thing

fe' certain. Models come pretty this yean Some are blondes and some brunettes. The brunettes were more in evidence. They were demonstrating the T'aris styles that won't worn 1ft Chicago, 1 "FYemet CaTtof, Itio big t'aris house, said Miss Nichols, "are showing gowns that come Just to the knee.

A njok'J demonstrated the ehemlse

enco of

Chicago girls, however, it is

considerably less chemises. "Kxeept for street wear, thef# are no sleeves this year," said Miss Murphy. "In Paris the gowns either have no sleeves or have little kimono sleeves that drop just below the Bhoulder."

Neither Miss Nichols nor Miss Murphy said anything about backs, but when the model turned around the idea was forcibly conveyed that backs —that is, the gowns' backs—have suffered with the sleeves from a shortago of fabrics. A friendly male buyer explained, sotto voice, that the girls In Paris aren't wearing stays this winter. It looked reasonable/

Ese,

which is all the rage in Paris, soon wiil be in Chicago. IDven a could tell that. It's like a man's ve»t except that it doesn't button up the. front, is knitted in gay colors, and fits up around the neck like a bib. Around the top of the bib efTect are a couple of inches of fur. It is worn under the coat, and when one wears it one wears no shirtwaist. It has no •leeves. One is supposed to keep one's coat on, probably.

They're getting away from black everywhere, and high colors are the thing, especially some new copper shades that the girl reporters said were "perfectly delicious." Everything's very plain but the models. A Pomieiian red chemise dress, with a Pompeiian red cape with a Kolinsky fur collar, on a brunette model, made a terrific hit. Kolinsky's no relation to Kerenslcy,. Miss Nichols gave assurance.

Pantelettes were visible on some of the gowns. Most, of the evening gowns are very illmr and flimsy, apparently. Waist lines, even in Chicago styles, are everywhere minimized. Other lines are much in evidence.

When William Sylvanus Baxter in all the importance of his later teens walked into the Booth theatre. New York, on the night of January 21, 1918, he marked an era in the history of the American stage. Mr. Stuart Walker did a daring thing when he transposed the hero of Booth Tarkington's "St-ven-te«"n" from the elastic covers of the book to the harder medium of the Stage. "Silly Billy" Is here in all the tragicomedy of budding manhood, his vanities. his self-importance, his vision of the world in whu he is of prime im* portanee, all these are clearly por* traved. The calf-love episodes and the struggles for manly independence as symbolized in the possession of a dress suit, are expressed in a way that keeps the audience Hhucaiing sympathetically.

Now, after eight solid months In New

Rfuart

Walker is sending "Silly

Billy in his travels to meet an insistent demand from theatregoers throughout the country. The famous comedy of youth and love and summertime, Seventeen," will have its local premier at the Orand on October 4, and Is unquestionably the dramatic event of the early theatrical season.
