The final note was added In a wide bordef of fluffty yellow fur which banded the narrow hem of the long skirt. Miss Marinoff wore with the gown a handsome wrap of cloth of silver brocaded in gold, collared with the unusual light-colored fur. A clrclet of gold leaves and tiny bead- like gold berries added an effective touch to her coiffure. - In the dream episode on the pirate frigate Miss Marinoff appeared as a Portuguese captive in a period cos- tume of orange satin and gold bro- cade. The high-waisted bodice was cut with a square neck, and had large pufted sleeves of satin frilled with white lace. The skirt was long, and widened toward the hem, extending into a short wide_train at the back. The headdress consisted of a colorful Persian print handkerchief, drawn tightly over the head and knotted at the back, with the ends hanging to the shoulders. Miss Margalo Gillmore, as the pretty ward, first appeared in a sum- mery frock of gray chiffon printed with a design in maroon. The loose, bloused bodice had a bateau neckline and wide square sleeves, the edges of which were turned up to suggest cuffs. The skirt was gathered, and bordered at the top by a soft crushed scarf of gray chiffon. Miss Helen Ware, appearing at Keith's in “Her Dearest Friend,” a sketch of New York life during the .

Thus, as a result of this work, many ef- fective means have been found for removing the knock referred to above, and thereby to make possible the use of higher compression engines with their resultant greater fuel econo- mief. Ploneer work along any line is necessarily slow, and the automo- tive industry s really only about fifteen years old: but decided progress toward increasing the present low automobile fuel economies has been made, advancement Is now being made, and still more will undoubtedly come. The results of this work the public will some day realiss on in the form of many “more miles per gallon.” Ne: every automoblle driver can conslisting of an abbreviated skirt, a tight sweater belted at the walst and a small felt hat turned up at the front. Miss Weston also wore a pret- tier frock of crisp pink organdy with a wide sash of blue satin ribbon tied in a butterfly bow at the back. The fitted bodice had a slightly rounded neck edged with a narrow collar on which were laild several clusters of help—should help—mow in this es- sentlal effort to better automobile fuel economies. Careful investiga- tion has shown that some cars are burning completely only half the gas- oline they use up, and that the average automobile or truck engine in the hands of the ordinary driver is actually burning only 70 per cent of the fdel that is. supplied to This meand that practically every driver of a motor vehicle could re- duce his gasoline bill to ‘a marked degree, and that with very little if any sacrifice of performance, simply by adjusting his carbureter to supply & leaner fuel mixture to the engine. Petroleum, the source of gasoline, Ia one of the great gifts of nature to man. Sixty years ago, we had just begun to use this liquid, but now it is consuméd In such enormous quan- titles that each year brings us defl- nitely nearer to the point of its ex- haustion In the United States. 'he man who uses more gasoline er mile than is necessary is wast- ng & national resource, the conserva- tion of which should be of vital con- cern both to the individual and to the nation. It {s Important that every driver of an automoblle should ‘have his carbureter so adjusteds.as to feed to the engine as lean a fuel mixture as will give proper performance, and that he should not wait on the in- evitably higher gasoline prices of the tuture for further incentlve to do so.

The costume was all trills and ruffles, and the colffure of corkscrew curls added to the fanci- ness of the ensemble. A diminuti lace parasol and mitts were interest- ing accessories. In startling contrast was Miss Effie Weston's modern flapper costume, pink and blue rosebuds. ‘The ehort sleevelets were also bordered with flower-trimmed frills.
