HE influx of new clothes proves that women must buy new clothes. It is all very well to may that the silhouette has not changed, but the outstaring truth is that everything is so subtly ckanged that one dismisses the old #ith a strong gesture of rebellion. This is the trade desires, but it is also ‘according to human na- ture. We tire of that. which we have. We are never anxious to re- peat the same model or. the same hat, even though they were praised by our friends and envied by. our enemies, The first anxious question that ~each woman flings at thése who have been behind the scenes cancerns the sleeye, fhe skirt, and the colors. One would think.that no other features of fashion existed in the imagipation of the--designers; and, truth to- tell, expert opinion begins to coincide with that of the public. Jenny created more excitement by her new_sleeves than by any other part of her clothes. When a dress- maker leaves the top of the arm bare and suspends a full sleeve from a bracelet above the elbow to the wrist, naturally the world stares, exclaims, wonders. When Molyneux uses & wide transparent scarf edged with * a galloon of color across the front of a low bodice, permits the ends of it to stream out across the arms and fall at the sides, and calls this a pair of sleevss, the public realizes that the designers are taking to new arm |coverings as a means of attracting attentjon away from the overadver- but the wrist, and often the ends go downward toward the knees. As for skirts, they are decidedly longer. Some dressmakers are hold- ing out against them, but the feeling that they will ruie the fashions by November is too strong to be denied. The hoop-skirt of Spanish persua. lon is shown by -most of the dress- makers ag'a picture gown, but it did not catch the eye of the American buyer in Paris. It has slight chance of holding the attention of the vast American public, which shows much common sense behind its choice of apparel. °“.‘:,§“'“‘ of lmwnmce must long skirt is not as lull l.! prophesied. It is narrow, and as flat at back and tiaca Biirt "Rt loant, that s the im- pression. This scarf, by the way, i attached to the bodice by a snap and car. be removed at the wearer's will. When it is removed, one is in the usual_half low gown.

When one realizes that the dreumlken insist that such frocks must be fitted wver the figure without the aid of a corset there will surely be a_wail that reaches to that new T the astronemers have discover- éred blazing east of the sun and west of the moon. It is the accepted fashion to drop a transparent skirt to the heels at back and slightly shorter in front over a slim slip of supple silk that falls to reach the hem of the upper skirt by eight inches. Qne is sorry to-say that the old and ugly fashion D( kicking up the back of the skirt as one walks is again in‘evidence. * % % % MOLYNEUX is one of the powers Wwho keep to the flattest of skirts back and front, but give sufficient fullnees across the hip lne at the back, by means of gathers, to get an effect of " grace; Jean Patou, who discarded - several original methods of creating.a pleasant diver- sion to his frocks, has made popular t.he skirt which is severe in front and urve- as a foundstipn for a circular nverskln at the back. - Such are the tricks that create a graceful com- promise between what is and what will be. Another thing concerning skirts that the individualist must not miss: The ancient and honorable balayeuse of muslin s revived It was first seen at Deauville on a five-yard skirt of printed foulard with a design of huge flowers in bright colors. Be- néath the hem, which was five inches from the floor, there was a frill of white muslin ard lace exactly after the manner of those ruffles that once accompanied each formal gown. One feature of the new frocks which differs fiot, from the old ones is the neck line. " What is called the lntuu neck, .the oval opening of ‘the talian ‘rengissance; remains in power. l'. is pot attuc!lve on the type of fig- ure which to sccom _it" to our faces in the best possible manner. It remains on the best of the informal dinner gowns, also oh the loose frocks that are to be worn under the capes and short coats -of the new season. There is much ‘of the second empire line seen ir: -the evening “gowns, “but lnnnnlw redéems it from the commonplace For example: A band of brilliant welled _is ‘placed to indicate e low court line, l.ll? ti‘ne fobric is brfll‘hl up to- meet it in an even series of sharp points. This same ef- fect is observed on capes. On the channel beackes where the new fash- jons are launched late in August, there wereé lcose capes of white chif- ‘cotton - crepe with colored_ desi Japanese: patfern which Showed this neck fon, of crepe- and of Rodiers ne‘\I necl l:m‘n‘::mthm‘d '-‘g'u 8 formed by e open O 54 tl-e’ points whith meet the b"ll: show 'k monkey a great with aecuntlnn;l&y MP:nl l:ollr:l wl uh into m ‘The dress. -udtnm‘.ufln‘duln ball in the-late’ fashion i category of old-fashioned homekee, NEW CLOTHES FOR THE NEW SEASON 1 Tl . Anne Rittenhouse Takes Up Subject of Changes in the Fashions—The Silhouctte—New Sleeves “From Paris Dressmakers — What of the " Latest Skirts?—Period Dresses. summer and broi fito Tachios ught vividness back L HERE-are certain sets of women Wwho still regard all black as the best choice in clothes, but it is com- monly accepted as a fashion whose day is done. Few of the smart Paris dressmakers sent it to America as representing the mode of the moment. Those who offered it found it was refused. There are black lace frocks, long of skirt, with the mew bodice that drops in a straight, narrow line from shoulder to hips, but the feel. ing for “ly colors is quickly ex- pressed 2. conspicuous girdle of metal rings, of galloons, of huge flowers, or the lace skirt will carry a.-gold brocade bodice. It was easy to guess that with full kirts and hip length bodices, or flat skirts with side draperies, the fabrics" of the new season would be supple. For this reason crepe in its VIIPE“;M Inlnl!elullonl remains the choice of the majority of those who design clothes. Not much velvet was shown in the recent collections, surprising as it may seem, but metallic brocade held its place of power for the eve- ning and also-for bodices which were joined to cl6th_ skirts. Serge has something of a fling this season, but it is not demurely treated. Steel 'beads and other devices to attract attention are used. The combination of serge and satin has passed into the discard. Lllq: ‘braiding is seen. Fur is used for ‘bands when bands are needed. And’fur is simply treated. It is no longer tortured. Neither meta lic embroidery nor figured impres- sions dent its supple surface. Taffeta is rarely shown except in picture frocks for young girls. Th& Dresden figurine coloring does nor appear; 2 bold design of bright small flowers on a Black background is used. For adults, taffeta, it appears, is dis- missed. Satin has not much chance for popularity.

DOWNING ‘When Mrs. Smoot, wife of the senior senator from Utah. came to Washing- ton some twenty years ago, conditions were vastly different from now and existence was much simpler. But Mrs. Smoot is one of the loyal ad- mirers of the Capital city and one of the eloguent exponents of its possi- bilities as a home. After enduring pangs of homesick- ness in downtown hotels or houses built in a row, she began to look about for a permanent abiding place where some of the familiar objects from the beloved home at Provo, Utah, would not seem at odds with their surroundings. She soon recognized the loveliness of that ngw part of Connecticut avenue beyond the bridge. where the rear gardens descend in terraces of flowers and rockeries to the murmuring waters of Rock Creek. But the Smoots came to Washington in 1903 and it was fully six vears later before they realized the dream of their present home in Connecticut avenue, right on the brink of the high hills overlooking the water. Mrs. Smoot belongs, by the -uni- versal verdict of her friends, in the P- ers, but the difficulty of getting good service in the evil days which have fallen on the world have not changed the routine of her Fouse in the least detail. For when all elsc failed she could take up any of the tasks and make short and perfect work. Though the Sunday morning breakfasts of the Smoots are not so famous as some in senatorial history. they deserve to be. as the President and Mrs. Harding would cheerfully testify, if the need came. Some three years ago, Senator Harding went for an early ride with his wife and re- membering something in connection with his last chat with his colleague from Utah, he dropped by about 11. MRS. REED SMOOT. The family was -about to eat the first meal and they insisted on maying their callers join them. The table was 1aid on a jntting rock oyer tie ravine. and flowers blué as the sky decked the table.. Bluebirds- were painted on the china and embroidered on the napery. The whole feast was fllled with the Sabbath calm and the spirjt of good will’and hospitality, and. the edibles were beyond description.. ' - In those early Washington days Senator and Mrs. Smoot had a large and happy home circle, three sons-and three, daughters. 'Of the former only the ybungest remains in Washi nn-m ané th: elders are in bus] in Salt Lake City. Miss Annie K. t and Miss Zolla Smoot made their debuts and took an active part in the social affairs of the capital. Both are now arried and living in Utah. Mra. Smoot has been in rather -f: bealth, but ehe always comes to Wash- ington in the -winter and passes as much time as possible in the home in Provo in the summer. She is 2 native of the small town where she has al- ways made her home and was before her marriage in 1884 Miss Alpha M. Eldredge. - Both she and her husband were in the early twenties when that event occurred, thirty-seven years ago. ASKS ABSOLUTE DIVORCE. Ethel C.
