IUSINESS DRESS COMES INTO OWN

LONDON, Dec. 21. A striking sign of the changes in deeply-seated social habits in London brought about by the war is furnished by the rapidly lessening amount of evening dress now ' worn by men in west end theatres. The appearance of a morning coat in the stalls of a fashionable house sixteen months ago would have been regarded as an unpardonable solecism by society; but so far from its being seriously heeded now, the practice is becoming so common as to excite no remark. Another development on the same lines is Just as significant and interesting. Dinners of a kind likely to be attended by financial men are beginning to be held with the announcement "business dress." The utmost advance toward a common sense arrangement hitherto adopted has been the notification "evening dress optional," but that always has been felt to be unsatisfactory, because no guest ; was quite certain as to whether, if . he went in morning dress, he would

, look exceptional and, therefore, even

ing dress was Just as much used as ! before. The practice is of such convenience that it is likely to spread.
