‘SHORT SKIRT TO RETURN,’ SAYS PARIS COSTUMER

‘Let the Streets Be Swept With Brooms, Not Dresses,’ Is Slogan—Fall Styles Will Be Greatly Different, Irene Castle Treman, known as the world’s best dresser, returned from Paris the other day deploring the styles of the day in Europe. Foreign modistes also have been groping about with the long skirt, the short skirt, a return to waist lines and continued abandonment of waist lines until women everywhere are asking the question : “What on earth am I going to wear?” The United News asked Edward Henry Molyneaux, famous Paris costumer, who caters to the “Four Hundred” of the world, to clear the confusion with his forecasts of fall styles. His response follows:

By EDWARD HENRY MOLYNEAUX > (Copyright , 19iS, 6 y United News) PARIS, Aug. 2.—Dress and grow thin. Girls and women, who accept the autumn styles as their mode of dressing, will look like slim princesses —no matter what the scales may read. Why diet when you can dress off from fifty to seventy-five pounds by obeying the season’s dictates of fashion? The waist line this fall will not go back to normalcy. It will be very low, giving Madamoiselle or Madame a slender, girlish appearance. Fashion experts have found that a normal waist line has tfte tendency to make the wearer appear far more corpulent than she really is. That is the reason all the models we are now turning out have extremely low waist lines. ' Pleats Permit Action The skirts, however, despite their narrowness, are very comfortable. Pleats, which allow the garment to expand at the bottom, permit the autumn girl to walk with the greatest of ease. Short skirts will bo the vogue. The attempt to lengthen the skirt has failed and the fashionable people of the world demand a short skirt, which, after all. Is the only practical kind. Let the boulevards be swept by brooms—not skirts. Practicability Is the keynote of the season’s styles. The well-dressed woman will wear the plain, simple things and not the out landish, freak, fantastic garments. I advise those who have ordered queer garments to save them for masquerade balls. In this connection, permit me to point out to the women of the United States, many of whom are my clients, that the Egyptian dress craze, which sprang up after the tomb of Tut-Ankh-Amen was opened, has entirely passed. Styles fashioned after the famous King's court are as dead as Tut-Ankh-Amen himself. Drab Colors Colors, of milady’s afternoon frocks will be drab. Black and various shades of brown will be quite popular. Evening garments are to be of bright and brilliant shades. Velvet frocks, trimmed with fur, will be quite correct. .

HATLESS WOMEN NEXT! Bob-Haired Girl Will Pass On In EverChanging Styles. By United News CHICAGO, Aug. 2.—Hatless women will replace the bob-haired girl on the streets of American cities soon, Mme. Marie Little told the American cosmetician convention Wednesday. But there is no cause for rejoicing among husbands, for each woman will pile about SSO worth bf false hair on her head. This about evens up the expense, said Mme. Lille, who got her tip on a recent visit to Paris. “One sees as few as six hats a day in Paris,” she said. Elaborate peacock and ostrich combs add to the beauty of the hatless women on special occasions. Other delegates advocated use of a sort of bathing cap by women to keep hair smooth after retiring. a strand of pearls. Her bouquet was a 6hower of roses and valley lilies. Out-of-town guests were Miss Rose Gallagher of Denver,. Colo.; Leo Gallagher of Cleveland, Ohio; Mr. and Mrs. Van Randall and son Howard of Bloomington, and Mr. and Mrs. James McMannamon of North Vernon. Mr. and Mrs. Altmeyer have gone on a short wedding trip and will be at home at 522 Goodwin Ave. after Sept. 1. • • • The weding of Miss Frieda E. Nolting, 47 S. Summit St. to Robert E. Clee, will take place tonight at the home of the bride. Mrs. Lucile Cave Buckner, will be the matron of honor and Miss Laura Nard, bridesmaid. 'Alvin Nolting. brother of the bride will be the best man. • • • Mrs- Dale Hodges will entertain with three tables of bridge at the home of her mother, Mrs. T. H. McLean, 68 Whittier PI. • a • Mr. and Mrs. John B. Dyer, and daughters Kathleen and Rosemary, and son Jack, 2848 Washington Blvd., have returned form a motor trip to the Great Lakes. a a a Mrs. Mabel Arnold, of New York City, Is making an extended visit with Miss Ruby Campbell, 2256 N- Talbott Ave.

CONTINUATION OF LETTER FROM MRS. JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON TO MR. JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON. Just when I reached the point In my letter where I told you I opened the door into the hall this morning, I was called to consult again with Dr. Samson. He wanted to give me some directions about the baby’s milk. No, dear, I did not go to the children’s home to get a baby, for Leslie, for although you will hardly believe it, as I opened that door last night to go across the hall I found, lying in a softly lined basket, a beautiful baby. I gasped! And, rushing baciy carried the child into Jack’s room. "Look here, boy,” I said, "look what I have found just outside your door.” Jack seemed utterly surprised and asked the usual stupid question, "Why, who put it there?” - "I don’t know. Jack. Probably sorfle woman has heard about Leslie's illness and how we were going to find a child for her and thought it would be a splendid place for her own baby. Poor woman! She probably could not care for it. Isn’t he a beauty’” I picked the baby out of the basket. It was evidently about six weeks old Dressed In very nice, delicate, handmade clothes. Its mother must have been a fine needle woman. It opened its eyes and looked at us, for Jack was bending over my shoulder with his face close to the baby’s eyes, and I was looking at them both. I became almost hysterical, for at that moment each of them —the man and the baby—twitched up the left side of his mouth and wiggled his nose j in a ridiculous manner. I had never noticed that Jack did that before, and when I saw it duplicated on the wee features of that baby it seemed somefhing almost uncanny. Jack put out his hand and touched the baby’s mouth; then picked up one of its tiny hands, the fingers of which j clasped around his like tendrils. "My dear,” I said, "it is Providence —nothing else." # "Do you think she’ll like him?” asked Jack. "He seems pretty nice, don’t you think? But why in thun-! der should any woman leAve a baby at our door?” he inquired. It seemed to me, however, perfectly simple.'-for of course the papers had been full of Leslie's illness and how she was grieving for her baby. We sent at once for Dr. Samson, and ho advised us immediately to a woman who was trained in chll- : dren’s nursing, in fact, he offered to go I to the hospital and send one that he | thought was at liberty. After this happened, of course, there j was no sleep for either Jack or me. j Jack hung over the basket in which j we again placed the baby, for hours, i He seemed to be afraid that it would fly away, and once he declared that he j knew it was not breathing. If the child had been his own he could not I have been more solicitous. He seemed ; to feel that in some way fate 'had I solved all his troubles knd that Leslie |

SISTER, By SISTER MARY MEAT SANDWICHES ANY women hate to make sandwiches. but if the knife, is sharp and the butter creamed to spread and the bread not too fresh, there is no reason for considering sandwich making a hardship. Sandwiches served with tea or milk on the porch make a delightful luncheaon. And there is not a more clever way to use left-overs than in these very sandwiches. These suggestions for meat sandwiches may help you; , Ijeft-Ovcr Beef * Roast or steak can be used. Carefully remove all fat or gristle from meat. Put meat through food chopper. Four tablespoons chopped meat, 1 teaspoon minced parsley, 2 or 3 slices tomato, salt and pepper. The amount of salt and pepper, of course, depends on how highly the meat was seasoned when cooked. Put meat, parsley, tomato, salt and peeper In a bowl and mix well. There should be enough tomato to make the mixture moist. Put between thin slices of bread and butter. Veal Sandwiched Remove all fat and bone from meat and put through food chopper. Four tablespoons chopped meat, 2 tablespoons grated new carrot, teaspoon minced onion, 1 teaspoon minced parsley, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, oil to make moist. A quick way to do this is to put

meat, a small carrot, 1 slice onion and four or five sprigs of parsley stripped from' the stems into food chopper and grind. Mix well and season with salt and pepper. Make moist with oil and lemon Juice. Raw carrots are a wonderful food as well as being very tasty with veal. Lamb Sandwiches Combine crisp bacon with curly endive. Mince bacon and endive, using half as much bacon as endive. Season with paprika and make moist with lemon Juice. The person who would "eat and grow thin” may enjoy any or an of these sandwiches with iced tea, and ho who would "eat and grow merry” should drink good rich milk with them. Left over fish makes deliciolus samlwlches. Carefully remove bones and flake. Season with salt, pepper and lemon Juice or add one-fourth as much minced watercress. (Copyright. 1923.

Martha Lee Says Before Marriage* Time to Rectify Love’s Error

The girl or man who breaks an engagement to be married usually is subjected to unpleasant comment, especially if the wedding date has been set. “She shouldn’t have ‘led him on’ if she didn’t want to marry him,” say the busy-bodies. /

Or — "He should have been sure before he asked her.” But can we ever be sure of love? Courtship brings many revelations regarding each other to a couple. So, if one or tho other discovers, even after the engagement is announced, that he has made a mistake, it is far better to rectify it then than to proceed with a marriage which may bring unhappiness to both. Love Lacking Dear Martha Lee: I am 17 years old and am engaged to be married in three weeks. I don’t waiit to marry this man. I only want to be friends. He takes it seriously. But I found out I really don’t love him enough to marry him. He is Jealotts. He won't let me s'peak to any, of my boy friends and he does not want me to have any eirl friends. I want to go back to my swimminp. but does hot want me to. Please advise me what to do so I can break the engagement without hurting his feeling’s, so I ran be myself again. WORRIED. You are too young to marry. Tell your fiance that, and don’t let him convince you otherwise. It is best to break off this’engagenUSnt now, even though you do lose his friendship, than to marry a man you do not love. And, when you do marry, some time in the future, be sure you cure your fiance, whoever he is, of jealousy, especially the foolish kind that would keep you from having friends.

way to end the letter? “Sincerely yours,” or what? 2. If flowers are sent to a,girl from her man friend, should she telephone him immediately to thank him. or wait until he telephones her? 3. The other night I went to an entertainment with a girl. A fellow with whom 1 have lots of dates was there. He did not ask to take me home, but got on the street car with me and took me home. Perhaps he thought 1 would take it for granted. Was X correct in paying my own carfare? 4. When introducing someone, should you stand? Should a yrung girl stand in being introduced to any one older than she? 5. How should you introduce Mr. Brown, Mr. Smith and Miss White to vour mother father, uncle and aunt? I think it would be an awful task. 9. A boy friend will be on his vacation one week, away from Indianapolis.

JUST A YOUNG GIRL. 1. "Sincerely yours” Is a good phrase. If the contents of the letter are in keeping. If the boy is an old friend, "Fondly yours” would not be amiss. 2.

However, it was not necessary, as the man very evidently was "taking it for granted.” 4. Always stand when making an Introduction In your own home. In any other place, stand to Introduce any woman, or a man somewhat older

than you. A girl should stand when being Introduced to a woman, or to a man quite a bit older than she. 5. It is complicated. It can be • done this way: “Mother, let me precent Miss White, Mr. Smith, Mr. Brown —my aunt Mrs- Blank; my father, my uncle, Mr. Blank." 6. Better wait a bit. 7. Mrs. Grundy does not exactly approve, but modern practice sanctions a girl writing a note to a man ac the first message when she is away.
