—WHAT’S IN FASHION?—

New Evening Dresses Are Practical Directed by AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK. April 9—Good news for husbands, fathers, or whoever pays the bills. This spring, when the evening invitations start , piling up, you shouldn't hear -so many feminine complaints of “But I haven’t a thing to wear.” Fashion, with her weather eye on budgets, has made new evening dresses practical. They're adaptable to many kinds of events. Easy to lake care of, too 'some can be washed at home). And still they're just as lovely and enticing. There are many dresses this spring designed so they’re appropriate for both formal and informal evening affairs. fSo no matter how the invitation reads she has something to wear.) Slightly shorter lengths are the fashion, which makes one dress more adaptable. The same length —ankle or instep are the smart ones—does for dancing, theater, dining or anywhere else you go. i Saves wear and tear, too, since it’s not within reach of men’s heels). Dresses Slightly Shorter Then many—in fact, most—dresses have a jacket that goes with them, either matching the color and material or smartly contrasting with it. Or, if you prefer it, a little cape is just as useful as a jacket. For the more formal affairs you take off the jacket or cape, while for less formal ones you keep it on. Shoulders Are Covered The fashionable silhouette calls for wider looking shoulders. That’s made berthas, capelets, epaulet and cap sleeves in fashion. And all these details cover the shoulders making the dress, even without a jacket, less of the grand opera type. It’s still formal, but more suitable for the usual run of evening events. Incidentally, a good way to give a. bare-shouldered dress a covered shoulder newness is to get a large square of chiffon or crepe, fold it triangle shape and drape it ’kerchiefwise over your shoulders, knotting the ends and fastening it in place with a large clip. Even in materials you can be more practical. For while the sheer crepe and prints are still fashionable, so are laces, that need little pressing and if torn can be mended invisibly. Easy to Launder Sheer wools and sheer shantungs, sturdy materials that stand many trips to the cleaner’s. And—believe it or not—cottons, especially jibbed cottons like flat ribbed piques are going to be seen. And lots of these can be laundered at home. The fashionable silhouette is sim- : pie and straight—an undated sil- | houette —which makes a dress less j conspicuous if you have to wear it many times in one season. It molds the figure, as the dress illustrated. And if you could take off that contrasting jacket, you’d find the dress shoulders extended so the tops of the arms are covered.

Your Child System That Makes Labor of Education Is Deficient

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Recently a friend of mine who is a famed lecturer gave me the script of his address on Vergil to read. I read it through twice, with the result that I was seized with a tremendous indignation, and resentment, because I had learned more Roman history, more about the poet himself, and more about the story of Aeneus and his misfortunes than I had picked up in one solid year of scanning Latin lines in class. And why w j as that? Why had I finished my senior year at high school having gone through Caesar, Cicero, and Vergil without the slightest inkling of what any of them were about? Caesar I digested more or less, but the orations of Cicero and his denouncements or traitors in the

A BOOK A DAY BY BRUCE CATTON

THE story of Robert E. Lee has been told a great many times. But biographers keep returning to it, and they always will, for the aura of romance and legend clings about the man, and his name is sheer magic. The latest biography, “Lee of Virginia,” by William E. Brooks, is an exceedingly readable and intelligent piece of work. Mr. Brooks tries valiantly to get underneath the legend and to get at the man himself—no easy task, for the legend has been growing ever since McClellan dragged his army out of the Chickahominy swamps in 1862. Asa richly human portrait, the book is a marked success. Mr. Brooks digs into the correspondence of Lee and his relatives for human interest touches that round out his picture, and gives the strictly military side of the story a minor place. For detailed analyses of strategy you must go to such writers as Maurice. Best of all, I think, are his closing chapters, telling of Lee’s life after Appomattox. Here the essential qualities of the man are most clearly visible, and here Mr. Brooks is at his best. “Lee of Virginia” is published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company at $3.50.

Card Parties

Dr. W. C. Worthington Chapter 3, Disabled American Veterans of the World War, will give a benefit card party at 8:30 tonight at the hall, 108 North Delaware street. Proceeds will go to disabled veterans and their families. Harry Stuck and Earl Dietrich are in charge of arrangements. Mrs. Paul Kulke is chairman of a card party to be given at 2 Monday in the Banner-Whitehill auditorium, by Ladies of the Liederkranz society. SORORITY TO MEET FOR PLEDGE RITES Theta chapter, Delta Sigma Kappa sorority will hold pledge services at 8 Monday night at the home of Mrs. Arthur Brumfield, 3307 Capitol avenue, for Misses Fern Erisman, Maybelle Titus, Charlotte Updyke, Margaret and Mildred Caldwell, Helen Pyke and Mildred Donahue. The hostess will be assisted by Misses Helen Cross, Mariam Martin and Ethel Holdren.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Forum meant nothing on earth to me but genitives and ablatives and declensions. Story Was Concealed Vergil’s “Aeneid” was something to be scanned and translated, and it was more important to get the “cases” of the Roman gods straight and be careful about the twisty Latin verbs than it was to dig into the meaning of the story. The story, whatever it was about, seemed to be a secret. When I put the manuscript down that Dr. Vincant Booth had given men to read I said this; “Why in the name of goodness couldn’t they have told us that when we were studying the Latin classics? “Why couldn’t they give us a week or two on the whole picture first; the times, the wars, the trials and troubles of this pastoral poet; where he got his ideas and philosophies contained in this epic? “If they had done that, we children would have gone into it with open interest.” Made Hard Labor Instead we were given big black books called “Vergil” that might iust as well have been called “Addacadabra.” We started in laboriously trying to dig a meaning out of the first line, then the second and the third, and by the time we had reached the fourth, we had forgotten the first. There was no picture, no story, and consequently no interest. It was the same with “Cicero’s” eternal droning. Yet that whole period with its fierce jealousies, battles and murders were as dramatic a time as the world has ever known. It passed peacefully over our heads in a series of grammatical explorations. Weak Place in Education I write this as an illustration of one of the weak places in education. Children go into things blindly and study beside the mark. If things were explained to them intelligently and a big clear picture drawn for them at first of what it is all about, much mental haze would be dissipated. To hear about a country, to know it before you go in is always a helß, You see it then with more appreciative eyes, and you learn through your interest. It is the same with lessons. Not always, of course, but quite often children are studying in the dark. Every new text-book should be prefaced by the teacher. To go along blindy day by day is no fun at all. I often wonder if children know more than half the time what they really are studying.
