SLEEVED JACKETS TO MATCH WITH SLEEVELESS DRESSES
Long Coats A re Placed in Discard BY JEAN PATOU Written for N'EA Servlet PARIS, April 21.—The simple morning costume Invariably will reveal some novelty, inherent primarily to the change of season, and this new note first Is found In the composition of the costume Itself. Spring and jummer automatically discard most long coats, as these necessarily must be made of some sort of wool fabric, therefore, rather cumbersome and surely too heavy and warm as the season advances. The long coat Is to be found only in regular sports or traveling outfits. The Informal mode, characterized by morning clothes, is expressed this year in the guise of a dress and Jacket. The former can be long sleeved, short sleeved or devoid of any sleeves at all. and the jacket will be found amply sufficient for the time of the year. Like Cardigan Jacket I have based the execution of my simple morning dresses on the principle that a sleeveless dress should be completed by a sleeved jacket and vice versa. Asa matter of fact, these new jackets really are a modernized form of the old “cardigan” which, a few seasons back, constituted the third or fourth piece of an ensemble. The modernized cardigan jacket, however, differs vastly from Its predecessor as It shows a certain amount of detail work and in this way does not convey the Impression of just being an accessory. No hard and fast rules apply to the creation of these morning dresses, as for example, for conventional sports clothes. The waistline is clearly defined, usually by the addition of a contrasting belt and a certain note of fantasy Is imparted to these garments by the fabric itself, usually of an original design and, as is the vogue this year, quite colorful. Browns Are Best The best colors this spring for morning or informal wear unquestionably are all the browns, combined with white or beige, some blues and greens and one or two shades of red. Jersey weaves are by far the most suitable fabrics for this type of dress, because of their extreme suppleness and lightness. I have used quite a number of almost openwork fabrics that present none of the disadvantages I always encountered with ordinary wool jerseys, which were that they were unhygienic, because too tightly w'oven and not sufficiently light and supple. I think that all trimming should be in the form of a direct contrast and I have used, almost exclusively, ordinary white cotton pique on these morning outfits. Any other fantasy can only take the form of details of cut or incrustations of the fabric, as these models must preserve their characteristic of informality. Fullness Is Disguised Regarding skirt widths of moming garb: While afternoon modes reflect the year’s tendency to pronounced flares from knee to hem, informal dresses are inclined to show an attenuated fullness, and even this fullness is disguised to preserve a straight silhouette. Pleats are stitched as far down the skirt as comfort for walking and sitting will allow, and if godets are used, these are disposed on the skirt in such a manner as to prevent any appearance of a flare. Design plays an important role this season in these simple morning Ensembles. I have somewhat tired of chine effects, but still prefer a material with a design to a plain fabric. The latest and newest designs are rather irregular, but with a somewhat blurred effect as chine and the great advantage they offer is that of being more colorful. I am glad to see that women are of the same opinion and are adopting these new designs enthusiastically.
‘Let’s Get Out of Nicaragua,’ Will Rogers Tells D. A. R.
BY LYLE C. WILSON' ' United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 21. Daughters of the American Revolution turned today from consideration of Communistic perils, pacifist propaganda and such political matters to the discussion of prosaic committee reports. Barring unforseen developments, the D. A. R. has disposed of political questions for the time being. They will be raised again, with Soviet Russia in the forefront on Friday, when the congress will hear the report of Mrs. William Sherman Walker, chairman of the national defense committee. Mrs. Walker is no friend of the London naval treaty. She opposes the League of Nations and American adherence to the world court. Her report Friday will be followed immediately by an address from Representative Hamilton Fish. <Rep. N. Y.),\ who recently concluded an investigation of Communism in the United States. Two speakers will raise political issues in the evening sesssion when Senator George H. Moses (Rep., N. H.), an opponent of the London treaty, discusses “Our Navy.” Moses will be followed by Mabel T. Boardman, secretary of tho Red Cross, who will speak on “Red Cross Drought Relief.” Will Rogers, an unexpected visitor at Monday night's session, was urged to take the stage at the conclusion of the regular program, and delivered himself of a series of witticisms, many of them directly critical of the avowed policy of the daughters. "Speaking of Nicaragua,” he said. “I have just come from there. Our marines have been a godsend, but they ought to come home. We've got our army and navy messing around in everything. We mean well, but we just don’t get away wrlth it. We've been fooling around everywhere. “Let’s have a navy big enough to protect both our coasts, then we won’t have to bother about the Panama canal or in mixing in other

countries’ troubles. We’re in bad now in fifteen countries. It is time we quit and get back heme.” The 3.000 women cheered Arthur M. Hyde, agriculture secretary, when he made an administration reply to complaints voiced at the recent progressive conference here against unequal distribution of wealth. "That there exists too great a I concentration of wealth in this country is undeniable,’’ he said. He challenged, however, accuracy of the statement made by Senator ! William E. Borah tßep., Idaho) during the progressive conference that 4 per cent of the people in this j country' possess 30 per cent of the wealth. Hyde asked if it is necessary to “apologize for a government or an administration’’ under which there have not even been strikes during the current depression while elsewhere there has been “political upheaval and revolution.” “Criticisms based upen equal distribution of wealth," Hyde said, “are directed against the economic system and by implication against the government.”

Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
A GOOD many different people claim credit for the Mothers’ day idea. Though Miss Ann Jarvis had it incorporated and copyrighted, others swear they thought it up. Well, here’s one mother who is not going to give three rousing cheers for the originator. This year, it is announced, a committee of prominent men and women will use the day to collect funds from those whose mothers are dead, the money to be used for poor women and their babies. And once again in this fair land, sentiment knocks out common sense. We will arise on May 10 and ponder the joys of maternity. We will go to church and give unctuous thanks for mothers. We will shed some crocodile tears and drown ourselves In sentiment, j But—congress has turned its thumbs down on the maternity and infancy bill that would have helped countless women and saved thousands of babies. The President has done the same for the Wagner unemployment measures that might have put many a wife back home with her children. tt n tt WS give no thought to the problems of the young mother who is obliged to support her family: She doesn’t receive from employers the same wage that single men get. Instead, we today excitedly are kicking her out of a job if she has one. We do practically nothing for the girl mother of the illegitimate child except prevail upon her to throw her baby away. We give small ’ concern to the vital economic problems that affect mothers. Yet we talk about honoring them ! Aren’t we ever going to get rid of this sticky affectation that passes for reverence, and substitute justice that is needed so badly? Women who rear American children deserve something more substantial than fine words and charity. Let those who believe motherhood is the highest calling work for the things that really would honor mothers: a living wage, unemployment insurance for men, municipal nurseries, maternity and old-age pension laws, the abolition of war. When we have those, it will be time to talk about the celebration of a Mother's day. Alpha Chapter to Meet Alpha chapter, Phi Delta Theta sorority, will meet at 8 Wednesday at.the Severin.

Pajamas All Day Long
Directed By AMOS PARRISH
NEW YORK, April 21.-Anybody who thinks pajamas are only for sleeping or lounging is vastly mistaken this season! There's scarcely a time or event of the whole day when you can’t wear pajamas—-and fashionably—if you want to. Let s see how a pajama day goes. Morning—breakfast to get—housework to do. Into a pair of gay printed or plaid cotton pajamas instead of a house dress. Lots of women are wearing ’em while they wield the broom and wash the dishes. Just as practical as a housedress, with their low cut necklines and absence of sleeves. They wash and iron just as easily, too. And made in one piece, so they don’t pull apart when the arms get in action. After the morning's work and luncheon are over, there’s time for some rest. Out of the cotton pajamas and into the soft silk ones. Three-piece, this time blouse, trousers and jacket. Ready for Tea If the doorbell rings while you're resting, on with the jacket and you’re fashionably dressed to receive callers or even serve tea. And if your pajamas are in a smart color combination with interesting fashion details, they can sit in for a round of informal afternoon bridge, too. Dinner time. At home tonight. So on go the dining pajamas. Onepiece again but with a jacket. Cut like an evening dress with a low
f jjl
Formal evening pajamas with matching jacket decolletage and narrow shoulder straps. Since dinner’s more or less informal, you wear the jacket that goes with them. If it were more formal, you’d leave the jacket off. “And so to bed,” as Pepys used to say, wffien he closed his diary for the day. Pajamas again. Loose, comfortable ones with an overblouse tie with a sash or a tuck-in top, if you prefer. Sleeping pajamas aren’t cut as wide in the trousers as lounging pajamas. And again, lounging pajamas aren’t usually as wide- trousered as dinner pajamas. These most formal types of pajamas are so wide in the trousers no one need ever know they are paja- 1
Informal afternoon or lounging pajamas in two colors Puts New Life Into Dull , Tired, Faded Skin Just a little Calonite powder sprinkled on a wet cloth and rubbed gently over the face before retiring will clear the pores of all dirt and dust and oily accumulation, preventing blackheads. It puts new life into dull, tired skin, so you will enjoy a good night's rest.— Advertisement.

Morning Pajamas of Printed Cotton mas. They’re literally yards around —each trouser. And standing or sitting, they fall in such soft fullness and graceful drapings that they look exactly like a skirt. You can have them made of flat crepe, as many fashionable evening dresses are made. Os lace or chiffon two much-in-fashion dress materials. Even of taffeta. The one sketched at the lower left has that lovely long Grecian line that 60 many evening dresses have. In fact, if you weren’t told it was a pajama costume, you’d never know it, would you? In the center is a lounging and informal afternoon pajama costume in two colors with the fashionable bell sleeves on the jacket. And at the upper right is a gay affair of printed cotton in which housework can be whisked through in a jiffy—because it gives you so much pep!
