THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Bare Feet for Evening, Paris Edict BY MINOTT SAUNDERS NT A Service Writer PARIS, March 9.—A woman will have to be very careful to put tier best foot'forward at evening functions If the style stunt of the Maison Worth is adopted. It is a disturbing dictum for bare feet, clad only in high-heeled sandals. The suggested mode created something of a sensation at the formal spring opening, and when it was over the surprised guests retired to the buffet and over their champagne tried to talk learnedly over the new touch of untethered toes. Adds a Kick The fashion certainly put a kick in the collection and male eyes were surprisingly cast down as the pretty mannequins paraded in their flimsy, flowing evening gowns. Backs were cut to the waist, some of the skirts were slashed to the knees and others were diaphanous to a dizzy height, but the toes had it. The toenails were painted a vivid red to match the dainty fingertips of the mannequins and on some of the heels there was a suggestion of rouge, after the fashion of the Nautch dancing girls. Feet Spread Out At once the study of the style became very intriguing. It was commented upon that there was more in a woman’s dainty afternoon shoe than appeared when the daytime clothes were shown. The feet of the same mannequins spread out astonishingly when seen in their normal state. Toes pointed in various directions and moved bewitchingly under the peculiar kind of gait considered proper for such circumstances. It probably was impolite on the part of some of the spectators, but human nature was too weak to let pass such an opportunity to study the toe troubles' of others. Patches on Toes One mannequin apparently was too proud to go barefoot, or else she had had an accident. • With her evening sandals she wore light stockings, flesh-colored, but underneath could be detected a couple of patches on the toes. Another most certainly had had an accident, such as might befall any woman who steps out. Her left big-toe nail was black and she didn’t seem to like her job top well that night. She explained that she had hit her toe against something and the nail had become discolored. And the toes of several of the other girls showed the unmistaken toll taken on tender skin by tight shoes. The new fashion was received with considerable reserve. Obviously it was not easy to get accustomed to the sight of bare feet in the natural beauty of the formal setting and associated with gowns of rich texture and coloring. It was agreed that the Brothers Worth, grandsons of the great old pioneer in the art of Haute Couture, had dared greatly. Women were heard to ask each other in whispers if their feet were fit to “face” such a mode. One thing is certain: If women of fashion consent to toe the line as laid down by this house of high reputation, it will mean prosperity for pedicures. Mrs. Hunter Is New President of Auxiliary Mrs. George D. Hunter was elected president of the Auxiliary to the United Commercial Travelers at a meeting Saturdi r night at the Woman’s Departmei t Club house. Mrs. Hcmer B. Stevens was elected vice-president. Mrs. John E. Brandon and Mrs. Virgil W. Kinsley again will serve as secretary and treasurer. Mrs. Joseph Sainter is the only new director. Holdovers are Mesdames Roy E. Maxwell, Warren C. Harrell, John T. Johns and Williams H. McMillan. Mrs. Leroy S. Martin was reappointed publicity chairman. Mrs. Howard Kimball and Mrs. G. T. White were elected delegates to the state convention of the grand auxiliary, to be held in May in Kokomo. Mrs. Johns and Mrs. Martin are alternates.

V Grand Duchess Seems Modem . Business Woman in Talk

Avery modern business woman in % very matter of fact manner told the story of her life as the Grand Duchess Marie of Russia during the regime of Emperor Alexander 111, at Caleb Mills hall Saturday night. In excellent English, although her accent was pronounced, she discussed her old world background as a preparation for modem life. Her story concerned the lives of the two grandchildren of Alexander, Marie, and her brother Dmitri, as a part of the Russian court. She spoke of vague forewarnings of the revolution; of the blindness and the helplessness of the Russian rulers; of the assassination of her uncle, the Grand Duke Serge, before the very eyes of her aunt; of the advent of the World war and of her work as a Red Cross nurse at the front. With barely perceptible emotion, the grand duchess depicted the outbreak of the revolution, the terror inspired by the Bolsheviks, the murder of seventeen members of her family; her father’s imprisonment and her own escape to

Rumania and subsequent arrival in Paris. She organized and directed an embroidery factory in Paris after being a designer for Patou, Chanel and other French dress houses, then she said ruefully, “Embroidery went out of fashion.” “Up to the days following the revolution,” she said, “my brother and I were actors on a stage, wearing grand clothes. We had to step down and learn to live as other people.” Her life at the court she pictured as being very simple, with magnificence, pomp and splendor one imagines as being a part of the daily life reserved for ceremonial occasions. “I feel more at home in your country than in any since I have left my home,” she concluded. “My reception everywhere has been kind, and I sincerely love your country and your people. And,” she said, “it may interest you to know that my brother marired a girl from Ohio.” The grand duchess was presented by the Tudor Hall Alumnae Association. She was introduced by Henry Hornbrook.
