What confusion of periods, bizarre combinations of colors and varied range of fabrics! For instance, the formal evening gown illustrated was grouped with an old-fashioned taffeta crinoline model and a shape- less creation of olive green satin im- posaible to classify. One might sa dignity and absurdity neutralized by demure quaintness, for the evening gown was lovely in the very simplic- ity of its lorg, graceful lines, where- as the peculiar green frock had neither waistline, cirdle wor sleeves. and its only trimming-consisted of a few roses of changeable taffeta and a fringe of satin cords. The period creation seemed rather overburdened with trimming, perhaps because of the extreme severity of the other models. It was of peach-colored 8ilk. and its bouffant flounces were adorned with lace ruffies. garlands of satin rosebuds and countless bows of pastel-tinted baby ribbons. To return to the gown sketched, it VENING GOWN OF BLACK SATIN, | WITH RIBBON TRAIN. was of black satin, cu daring li The bod linto a “V* at the fre and into an even deeper rounded at the back. Just beneath the point was placed a large bow of black satin ribbon, and the two long ends which trailed from | t formed a divided train. The skirt| wag simply, but effectively. draped, { and, of course, was extremely long. ' The only touch of trimming which brightened the creation was added in (he form of short train-ends of pea- cock blue satin elaborately brocaded in_gold and silver. The otner gown pictured was of black velvet, fashioned with a long, loose blouse and a skirt that hung | longer at the front and back than on the sides. Tiny sparkling beads | of every imaginable color were ap-| pliqued in a conventional design around the bateau neck and the short | kimono sleevelets, and _additional beads appeared in a series of tri- | angles around the waist and hem fof the skirt. The triangles were | bridgea together with semi-circles | of gold and silver brilliants, and the} effect against the background of| black velvet was unusually lovely. A | slender girdle of twisted gold ribbon circled the waist just below the bead- ed pattern to e an additional note of richness. and the skirt lining, where visible, disclosed a harmoniz- ing glint of gold.

After seasons of large ostrich feather fans and equally large fans of spangled tulle mounted on amber or tortoise-shell sticks, the tiny fan is at last to have its day.

SHERMAN VARIATIONS — Sharman, Shearer. RACIAL ORIGIN—Anglo-Saxon. SOURCE—AnN occupation. There is probably no industry which Shearman, names as that of making woolen cloth, and the reason is that it was England’s one great manufacturing industry in the middle ages Medieval England traded with the world, exporting a great many kinds of agricultural products in return for the skilled handiwork of Venice, | Fiorence, Rouen and a score of other continental cities, and medieval Eng- | land manufactured many products for home consumption, but woolen cloth { was the one industry large enough for export, and It was so large that nearly all 'Europe wore more or less English cloth. It was a highly specialized indus- try, even in the middle ages, and there Is testimony of this in the fact that there are so many widespread family names today. each represent- ing some specialized step in the process of manufacture. The names of Sherman, Sharman, Shearman and i Shearer are instances. The original bearers of these names did not shear the sheep. They shear- ed the finished cloth after the nap had been ralsed cn it by the “teylzers” (which is one source of the name Taylor) und the fullers (who have given us the family name of Fuller) had shrunk and thickened it. The | shearers, in short, put on the last fin- ishing tovches betore the cloth pass- ed into the hands of the tradesmen and the clothing makers. Old forms of the name are found in the ancient records as “Richard le herere.” “Robert le Sherman” and ‘John le Shereman.” Your Home and You BY HELEN KENDALL. The Snow Mother. How old are you?
