SHOES TO MATCH GOWN, FALL STYLE * Emphasis on Waist Line in New Dresses —‘Vioniet’ Note , in Sleeves—Satin Leads in Materials.
“Shoes to match the gnwn?\i s the important mWsvmmer fashion note. Ostrich is the latest thing in leathers and blond ostrich, if it carries a contrasting leather trimming, the color of tlie gown, reaches ttttT pinnacle of good style. "Shoes will be 'more conservative this fall,’’ a shoe buyer observed. Exaggerated style, fi'cak leathers and startling trimmings will gradually tone down. The dark shoe, with conservative lines will come into its own. Suede, frowned on the last few seasons, is due for a return this fall i and several of the exclusive dealers already have trim .suede numbers in otock. dealers said. New fall dresses are already making their appearance In in several stores. "Length about the same" is the usual conclusion of buyers. "A few of the ‘Missy - gowns for evening and in period styles *#rc very long —almost ankle length, but with these exceptions, dresses remain shtyt," a buyer remarked. I Sashes, Girdles A decided effort to emphasize the waist line is admitted by all authorities and this is expressed in sashes, girdles—and on the,tailored things, in an invariable belt. By the way. the belt Is going to ire 'excellent for coats this fall. The new travel coats are seldom without a fancy belt of some kind and the pockets are exaggerated ‘and heavily tplfnmed. Indeed, it will scarcely be out of place when viewing some of the new coats this fall so remark, "There go some stunning pockets on that single little coat." Sleeves have only one new note. That's the “Yioniet" named after its designer. This sleeve resembles the old butterfly, but • considerably exaggerated. The sleeve is a striking note on somb gowns, and developed in the new "transparent" velvet, simply “makes" some of the exclusive fall numbers. "I'm not so sure of the ‘Vioniet’ sleeve, though,' one dealer said. "With the necessity for coats later on. the big. .flowing' sleeve will have jo fight for its own." Other dealers were warm partisans. Chanel Red Favorite Some of the new fall-colors will be Jungle green. Geraldinened, Spanish raisin, Aladdin, but all dealers agree that Chanel -red is the' big color note for fall. “Although' all wine shades are excellent." they say. In materials, satin is probably ahead, with flat crepes and cloth, running a close second.

Purses should /contrast, rather than match the gown or suit. An absolutely new purse for fall, has fittings which include, a cig.uet case and cigaret lighters. They come in expensive leathers. Striking new purses are the new "Cubistic? patterns in gloriously bright colors, made of F'.nglish pigskin. “Unborn calf" is another "late note." They’ll be especially popular with the woman who wears a fur,coat this next season.

Martha Lee Says WOMEN ARE GREATER DRAMATISTS THAN MEN
Women are greater dramatists than men. The difference is that women live their drama —and men write it. But that creative dramatic instinct is both a woman’s power and her stumbling block. , j J
She is always creating situations,! both mentally and actively, and herself playing the leading role. All her life long she thus dramatizes herself. Asa young girl she is creating romance and adventure, weaving a legend about herself and some boy she loves. Asa married woman she is still adventuring with /her emotions, and wben the play gets a bit dull, she finds herself again creating Situations, meant to rouse a phlegmatic husband into an ardent lover. She weaves drama around her children. She enthrones herself In later life with grandchildren as her admirers, and herself the ceni ter of a respectful and wisdom-lov-|ing world. Ah yes, a woman is a i dramatic thing, actuated J>y her I emotions to build a heroine opt of 1 herself. And when she is young she wants admiration and a lover. And ifiop£ over, a lower who isn't just standing by waiting for her to love him, but who is going about his wooing in an active find lover-like manner. "On Location" Dear Miss Lee: Some thousand or more miles distant lives the eirl. aeed 22. whom I have loved since I first saw her nine years ago. During our school career, we were the best of friends. Tho writer moved West, blit the correspondence eon - tinned. I.ast summer I visited their summer home la the South and upon leaving was told by the father the doors were always open, in other words, come any time you like. He even ■ offered to nuance nie in my own business: the proposition. howrver. has rested for some months. Understand please, that her attraction is not her wealth, lather it is a handicap. a I have so little to offer. The scirl has not written for six weeks and I am quite aware that another young man is on the job at the southern home. The question: Shall I without invitation, go to their home this summer and tell her w hat is in my heart V Or shall I spend the vacation improving my social manners that T may br her equal! M.v business demands much of mt time. Contrast: Myself, aged education. traveled considerably, a good position witk a splendid record and a real future. rj#igious. just fair socially, rather poor dancer, however, experience is what : 1 need most in the social line. And the j girl: 22. talentrd musician, good rduca- | tion. wealthy, can do the right thing at the right time, attractive, athletic, eduI cated. not perfect. but, nearly in the writer s estimation. Kindly tell me w-liat | to do. and if 1 go shall I take her a gift? ' Th" familv a gift! R. R Southward, bo. say I! If 1 were ! you, I'd get “on location" as soon ias possible—and the sponer the quicker! And don't let any grass grow under your feet when you ) there either. Just ease the other | man out of the picture by being too ueeesshry to everybody concerned. Take her a gift, and her mother one too if you like—that's all that's necessary,. although -$-ou may include the rest of the family too. I like your letter, and I'm sure the young, ludv must like you. But, woman like, she's going about irking you into action. And you can't blame her. You can make her love you if she doesn't already, which I imagine she does, but won't realize it until it’s before her. Take a flyer and sweep her off heiyfeet. I know that you are conscientious and earnest enough to do it if you want her. So go 'long with you—and good luck! .

' J OIATTLA STORY OF A GIRL 3/'TODAY A QUIET INTERLUDE Jerry bowed stiffly as I introduced him to Joan, and helped us into Hoe car. The drive out to the farmhc/ise was filled with small talk, although I could feel that Jerry, underneath his manner, was weighing our every word with quiet intensity. Just as we drew up to the gate, Joan turned to me: "Only a few days now and . we'll be away from all this,” she ff&id. "How restful the crossing to Europe will seem.” I stniled at her. Jerry said nothing, hut he looked as though he had received his death blow as he helped us out of the car with great formality. He made ipome excuse about park ing the roadster and Joan and I walked up the syringa lined path together. 1 will never forget that evening as long as I shalp-live. The soft' purplish twilight in which we htuim started from tho city had into darkness. The heavens were studded with twinkling stars that seemed to have some communication with the tiny glittering earth’s stars, as one might have called the fireflys, which flitted iH and out among the low foliage, giving one the impression that they had just dropped from among their fellows in the sky. Turning m.v head a little, I saw the moon's thin crescent just over my right shoulder and close down by its lower point a brilliant star seemed to punctuate with a period the sensational story I had lived the last few months. I took it for a good omen. In silence Joan and I went up the walk. Jerry still lagged behind. Joan's hand stole into mine. I knew that she'too was feeling that blessed peace which was filling my heart. As though to emphasize the prosaic life of everyday we came upon the porch where the table with its white table cloth was set in homely fashion and lighted by four, candles in heavy glass candlesticks. There were pats of new made butter, and dishes of scented honey/ crisp pickles, and colorful jams dotted about the table. These things 1 had not been since I had left my father's house. There was an qjlof of broiled chicken M'hich mingled pleasantly with the scent of the syringas, told me I was hungry—l remembered I had eaten nothing" since my coffee in the morningT None of us spoke as we three were seated at the table. .Terry’s face wfl inscrutable. 1 glanced at it furtivewP once or twice. He seemed to have shut me out of his mind entirely. It was as though I were not there. (Copyright, 1926, by NEA Service.)
