Wholetomenesa of Snowy Gown Affords Most Pleasing Effect and It I Decidedly Fashionable. livery woman can wear white. To Hjiiic women it Is more becoming than others, to be sure. I5ut there is Koineihing about the Immaculately white frock, the white suit or the white coat or hat that Is so wondrously attractive, that the white get-up Is a Joy even when worn by the womun who might possibly appear more robust or more youthful or more distinguished or more something el.e in some other color scheme, Kvery woman ought to wear white some time just for the joyous effect it has on those with whom she comes In contact. Itut now white has suddenly become amazingly fashionable. It whs riot one of those fashions that was predicted very generally, but suddenly at the resorts where women of wealth usually contrive to set the fashions that the rest of the world shall follow, tlie-e women began wearing white aiol then more whites. Not only w Lite .frocks and while bat were ordered from dressmakers and milliners, but there were hurry orders for white coats and wraps, white woolen suits, nnd white everything else. Now wearing white is not easy, especially for the woman who dresses on a moderate ullew anre. Hut there is this much about it: even the woman who Is free to send her white things to the cleaners after every wen ring, nnd who has ten frocks to the average woman's one, arid who has u maid whose only duty Is to aid her in matters of dress even this woman loe not always wear white us lt should ne

China for littb children just out of ti e baby class Is specialized In nowadays. It comes in many patterns, and with all sorts of decorations, from animals to alphabets. There really I some that is especially attractive madwith the letters of the alphabet. In the course of a meal the child could have ei.fh letter before him. Pretty little fell slippers m:v ho made like kittens' heads of soft wo, .J of some sort perhaps felt would he best. After the slipper is made rye are painted on Just o er the toe line.

Great tassels of silk make a simple finish. worn and there nre other women not so blessed by fate who wear white Irreproachably. It Is all a matter of daintiness, is It not? You know the woman who can go through the entire day In the city In a white suit and look as fresh nt the end of the day as at the outset ; and then there nre other women who seem doomed to be besmirched by soft coal or wagon grease the first thing.

LACE ON FROCKS AND HATS

Soft Colored Decorations One of the

Season's Favorites; Chiffon Drap erics Not Hemmed. A really lovely summer hnt of lay onder organdie which could be successfully worn villi nny sort of dress has row after row of narrow vnlenclennes Inee placed around crown, nnd nbmg the brim nnd tinted of tlio exact shade ns the organdie w hich makes the hat. The lice Is put on with sufficient fullness to make It frilly and therefore to produce a very soft, puffed effect. We shall see many of these tinted, lnce-trlmmed frocks nnd hats n summer advances; therefore, If one likes to be a bit a lien d of the procession, by nil menns procure the softcolored laees now. Undeniably this Is a lnee season nnyvny. Tho beautiful Margot laces nre combined with georgettes delightfully. This lace Is very fine and rich, nnd comes In various widths from narrow bandings to flouncing wide enough for skirts. A lavender chiffon frock which has been greatly ndnilred has panels of this crenmy lace placed at both sides of the hack, nnd the sleeves reveal it falling from the elbow to the hem of the skirt In a deep loop.

Detachable Waistcoat Is a Precious Possession; Plays a Most Important Part in Dress. A special eorressndent writes: The detachable waistcoat is a precious possession. In Paris It I mad.- to play n most importnnt role In the world of dress. We have bng diroctolre waistcoats made of satin, brocade or silk finished linen and smart little plnstron waistcoats embroidered In silks and wools, the hitter showing subtle combinations of unexpected colors. Now that materials are so expensive lt is Impossible to have more than one or two outdoor costumes in the year, but of decorative pbsstrons we can have many; nnd If we think out effective color schemes. In which waistcoat and hnt are happily wedded, the result will be more than agreeable. One tees many fine embroideries cleverly mingled with braidings on these straight plastrons, nnd sometimes the material used for the background Is suede cloth In some pale neutral tint, with the brightest silks nnd wools to supply in the embroideries the necessary splash of color.

ANY MATERIAL FOR SKIRTS

Silk or Satin, Gingham or Crash, Cotton Cabardine or Organdie Just So It Is Stylish. The short skirt nt present Is of every eoncelvnhlo material. It may be silk or satin. Ringham or crash. The material doesn't matter so long as It Is smart and stylish. Crepe Is one of the popular materials for sort skirts of all kinds. It Is parctlcnl nt the snine time that It Is effective. With both the crepe and jrnbnrdlne skirt wo see many of the tight underskirts, short as n sports skirt Is and with the oversklrt coming almost to the bottom of the underskirt. Ihrttons are one of the most effective methods of trimming:, and belts are crowing narrower all of the time.

"The movement Is spreading nil over the country nnd behind it nre some of our most prominent wornin. The movement wns begun last

, February ami has progressed rnpldly, overine marly the entire country: It Is strange that lt did not begin before. Inasmuch as "there are at letst 12,(XK),oiK) working women in the United States, of which at least half are engaged In business or the professions. These form a large army of women who can work together for the promotion of legislative measures which will promote women ln business one of the great purposes of the federation. It Is our object to brine about a solidarity of feeling anion women throughout the country nnd to gather and Rive out information relative to vocational npiortunltles. We will publish a magazine und n series of bulletins which will keep all the women of the United States in touch with each other, thus broadening their visions." "As a federation, we ask equal opportunities with the men nnd equal ray. We do not ask for the privileges of women and the rights of men." Miss ITillllrs. who has traveled In all the larger cities from coast to coast, wa astounded to find women engaged ln occupations which re ordinarily restrved for men.
