WOMEN

Light Colored Silk In Great Demand From sjik centers comes the information that silk in light colors is in such demand that it is impossible to till orders. The two leading colors are Uesh pink and pearl gray. White remains staple, but on account of the dark suits used navy blue has been very popular. In view of the fact that white is to be used so much for spring suits white will predominate except for the miss, for whom flesh pink, gray and maize will Tie used. Laces do not figure prominently on the newest blouses, except when a part of a three-piece suit. Instead of laces, cordings on Georgette crepe and hemstitching on crepe de chine ami silk voile blouses. Rows of machine stitching, executed with a. long stitch and coarse sill; are used for the heavier quality of crepe de chine. Cotton Buttons on Silk Waists. A trimming- feature is buttons of every variety, and buttons of cotton material are used for silk waists. All sleeves are long, but collars are not chokers, many excellent models being shown, with the "cal montant" in the back only, with a V In the front. Yokes like empiecements. novel drop shoulder effects and setln sleeve arrangements occupy the attention of all blouse designers at present. Very few have the peplum finish, but an elastic band in a casing is used in order to accomplish the same effect and economize on material. Many are made of a combination of two fabrics, plain satin with silk voile or crepe de chine and Charmeuse silk. So popular are combinations that, except in case of silk jersey and Georgette crepe, the blouse made entirely of one fabric is seldom seen. lUas Folds for Finishing. One is made of apricot crepe de chine with narrow plaitings of voile and finish neck, trimmed with silk embroidery and tassels. Another is of blue satin with narrow bias folds used for finishing. The belt is held together in front with bandettes of leather. Others are made of chair satin and silk voile, with hemstitching on silk voile sleeves and chemisette. Tailored waists are of dark colored taffeta, trimmed with white buttons and white machine stitching. Another combination is of crepe de chine trimmed with steel ball buttons, with collar of silk voile. White collars and cuffs must go, and all fancy decorations are passe. The well dressed woman is fast discarding all such furbelows and adopting the plain tailored waists once again. MANY TYIM:s or HATS. The first straw hats shown which are to do duty in the south are of several types. There are narrow t boat shaped turbans of shiny split: or pineapple straw decorated with big ribbon loops or fans. There are also flower toques, equally long and narrow, and tulle brimmed hats, with enough straw trimming to make . them spring models. One big black tulle hat seen was shirred over a sailor frame and had encircling narrow black straw braid on the upper brim and crown. The top of the crown was transparently veiled by a big tarn puff of tulle. This gives the wide look that many new hats, larpe and small have at the top. The small flower toques are charming this season. Covered with velvet leaves, with violets or other tiny flowers, they have some ribbon or tulle ornament that springs up, aigrette fashion, at the lack or from the top. gram of 20 dances, and there were more than 7." couples attending. A playlet. "The New Minister," will be given at Xt. Paul's M. K. church Tuesday evening. March 14, under the direction of the Woman's guild.

Tea Table Talks Bj Maj De Witt Tftlmaffe SILVXGILMKD INTO LIIH It Is seldom one gets the chance to have a real talk at a dinner party. There seems to be an unwritten law that says, just so often, no matter if you are bored or interested, you must turn and talk to your neighbor on the other side of you. The fact that you are really Interested in some topic that appeals to you does not prevent your neighbor on the other sid-i from interrupting you with some, absolutely irrelevant remark. "I have a philosophy of life that I has p,'-sed on to my boy," said my dinner partner a few evenings ago. I knew he was going to be interesting as soon as the hostess introduced him, so 1 hoped he would be quick in sayinsr what he had to say before we were interrupted. "I told my son," he continued, "that we had all been 'shanghied into life. He understood what I meant by that, for 1 had sent him around the world In a sailing vessel, and he had seen men who were drunk, or had been drugged, carried onto the ship Just before it sailed. Some of the men wanted to sail; some did not. A few were experienced sailors, but others were not. When they regained their senses they were far out at sea and they had to continue the voyage. "Consequently having fceen some of this my son knew what I meant when I said we had all been 'shanghied' into life. I told him that although ho had no choice about beginning the oyage of life, having started he would have to continue, and what was more he would have to obey the rules. "If he became mutinous he would be put In Irons. If he broke the laws he wculd be knocked over, the head and have to suffer in consequence. He had to continue the voyage to the end whether he liked it or not, and he had to obey the laws or pay the penalty. Life In like that for us all, and we might as well make the best of it. Storms and sunshine, rough weather, or smooth, until we reich the port, we have to stand by the ship. "That boy of min is coming out all right. He is a senior in college now. He does not think It funny or smart for tt hoy to get drunk. He compares it to those low1 degraded creatures that knew no better. lie has high moral standards and he has self-respect and " "What do you think of the new fountain In the Plaza?" broke in a feminine vcice over my partner's shoulder. "Don't you think it is perfectly awful?" I heard her say a.s I turned to find the man on my other side waiting to say something. And that was all I heard of the boy who was "shanghied" into life.
