Negligees for Easter Bride; Hats for the Wedding Cortege

IF SOME of the negligees that add so much grace and growing color te the lingerie departments of the big shops were moved over to the dress department they would pass fop evening gowns. They are made of airy and supple fabrics, laces and. nets. The negligee is privileged to use flowing draperies and goes somewhat farther In the matter of picturesque designing than any other of our garments Most women aspire to own-

Ing one of these beautiful and fragile affairs just once in a lifetime, that is, as a part of their trousseau, and a lovely model is pictured here for the benefit of Easter brides. It requires many yards of colorful georgette and as many more of silky lace. Stars of the first magnitude, like this, are in a small minority in the negligee firmament, but there are many beautiful negligees of plain and printed crepe de chine. They are shown In all the light colors and In

Id company with these are some very sedate models in sand, gray or beice made np with collars of tucked het and laceNext to these rank pretty breakfast coats of plain and changeable taffeta. These are sometimes decorated with narrow laces, used for making fetching and frivolous looking pockets and for finishing neck and sleeves. Voiles and tine, printed cotton crepes, in the same colors as silks, are also available for these garments. After the bride has settled, once for all, the vital matter of her Frock Like a Coat There is little to choose between the top coat and the tailored frock in some instances at present. One severe and smart frock is put on like a coat, and fastens with one hook on the left hip.

HATS FOR EASTER AND JUNE WEDDINGS A bridle and long hanging ends of ribbon proclaim it an ideal model for bridesmaids. The shape at the right commends itself to the bride who is considering small hats for her maids. It Is a crochet straw, faced with crepe and trimmed with wild flowers. A beautiful hair braid, at the right, has a wide border of silk on the brim and rows of plaited narrow ribbon over the crown. A miniature tapestry piece in silk furnishes a front decoration and is placed in a frame of shirred ribbon and needlework. Light brown hair braid, moire ribbon and a jeweled pin contribute a lovely foundation Tor a lace drapery in the all-brown hat that finishes the group. Come to think of it, there is nothing prettier for bridesmaids. or more useful for dressy wear, than lacy brown hats. JULIA BOTTOM LEY. (©, I*l4, Western Newspaper Unlop.) r - !

. - .... < oißv,'? Wooden Toy Industry Booms in United States toy industry ts booming in America, the World war having given it a big lift, because it temporarily discouraged German manufacture. formerly the chief source of supply for the American market. The tariff now in force sealed the ■ate of German competition in wooden (ojs in this country and since that time several large centers of toy manufacture have sprung up, Winchendon Mass., being the largest in the East. i;tys the New York Times. The only w»H>den toys of any prominence that escaped the tariff embargo is the artificial Christmas tree, which has beet) reelussified and transferred from' th» wood product class to the feather schedule, as a large portion of artificial Christmas trees are made ot feathers. Some German toys are on the market at high prices, according io the New York State College of Forestry, which says: “The mechanical toys manufactured in Germany are superior to the American product as a general rule. Many of these nre made of metal, such as battleships, locomotives, trains, railroads, automobiles, fire engines, mills, and pianos, although a * large portion of the pianos are made of wood. German dolls are in many cases preferred to the American product.” “American manufacturers excel in the construction of the larger toys, such as sleds, skis, carts, snowshoes, toboggans, etc.” says the college. “The kind of wood often depends on the byproduct of the lumber manufacturers near which the toy factories are usually located. For this reason, one manufacturer uses pine, another chestnut and another various hardwoods. Toy factories are an excellent outlet for the by-products of many working mills and go a long way toward making the operation of the lumber and ?oarse products’ mills profitable. Owing to the growing scarcity of wood and the increase of the cost of labor, wooden toys have increased In price in the last ten years about 100 per ?ent. Reforestation and scientific for?st management will tend to reduce their cost. ; On With Home The register of deeds of Wyandotte county says Kansas Citv Kan., is in i fairway to become the leading city jf the country in the percentage of jome owners. That official has been anting the unusual number of realty transfers, and the fact that many wot king men and others with limited means have been buying homes. It will be great for Kansas City. Kan., >f course, if that city gets in a forenost place In this important matter; aut building permits indicate that Kansas City, Mo., and many other places are going right ahead In this idiue ownership business. Few movements of greater possible ralue ever went forward in the coun:ry. A city or a community of any iind with a high percentage of home owners Is bound to be made up of a jood class of citizens; families with .•hlldren; men and women of settled mbits, and persons who, because of a proprietary interest are likely to show nore thdn the usual concern with conjuunity affairs. The home owner is the least likely convert to bolshevism >r any other ism that doesn’t grow out >f sanity and common sense conditions of living. One way to promote home owning s to attract capital into the home tuning business. Substitute for Wood The development of asbestos lumber has come at a time when grave concern is being expressed as to tile possibility of our national for ••sts being exhausted by present-day building needs. Combined with cement, asbestos fibers produce a “wood” which can be «awed, nailed and sliajted and fabricated in any size from a one-eighth-inch strip to the heaviest timber. It ran be painted, sanded, stained and (rented In any way Tn which ordinary wood can be treated for decorative effect. But, unlike ordinary wood, it requires no treatment for preservation and need never be replaced, because It is indestructible. Small houses and warehouses already have been constructed successfully of asbestos “wood,” and it has been used with equal success tn the partial constniclion of larger buildings. Lumbermen and builders have expressed themselves as believing that thr new product will go far toward relieving the lumber scarcity whkjt is a source of anxiety both to nnr scientists and our government.— Popular Science. Waste and Its Preventive One thing is indisputable—namely, that it is thoroughly bad iwdicy for a unmicipxility, or any other governmental hotly, to live beyoftd Its income and then issue bonds—and manycities do —to? cover the deficit. The necessity of a scientific budget is not limited to the nati<mal government The reputation of county and city government is. notoriously bad and the prevalence of waste and spoils is attributable to loose methods of spending an.ropri.itlojjs.—Chicago News. The Jovial Man. A “jovial” character once meant the type supposed to belong to all persons who were born when the planet Jupiter was in the ascendant. They were supposed to possess more of the cheerful elements of character than others, and hence to partake of the benign qualities attributed to the father of the gods.
