Improvement on Ultra-Decollete Dresses Is Manifest.

The senora wears, in giving her taiks, one of the beautiful gowns of her home land, a delicate pineapple fabric, hand-woven and hand-embroidered, shaped like a gauzy-winged butterlly. "In many ways the path of the women of the Philippines is easy," says Senora de Veyra. "Laws made by her have combined the best of American and Spanish precedents, and she has come Into her own with far less struggle than either her American or her
