BY LOUISE ROCHON HOOVER. Each year the fashion news from Paris promises luxuries and beauties far in excess of the preceding season, but never was this more true than in this season of 1926 All the luxury and elegance that is Paris itself has been Javished upon the fashion world, until one fairly gasps in sheer delight OF M GOW RHINEETONES. TAL OF boast not only great collars and cuffs of fur, but are completely lined as well, and in some cases may even e worn reversed as a fur coat, for more formal occasions. Georgette and velvet make a popu- lar combination for afternoon wear. most_effectively depicted in the frock sketched at the left. It is a Julia Hoyt model in a rich garnet shade, | LYNX. as it unfolds itself before your eyes in the Washington shops. For today, in shops which hereto- fore presented only copies of the fa- mous Parisian houses, one may genuine imports. One learns from original sources to appreciate the stately grace of Vionnet, the suhtle sophistication of Patou, the charming youth of Lanvin and the colorful bril- llance of Lenlef. Many famous couturieres rep- resented In tha shops of Washington just now. So many. in fact, it is difficult to choose those whose models are most striking. However, one could not omit the gorgeous coat sketched at left. bearing the unmis- takable touch of its creators, Martial et Armand. Of softest gray suede cloth, stressing the vogue for dull lustered fabrics for wraps for day wear: lined with peachskin, in an equal soft salmon tone, that matches the nosegay on the left shoul- der, it closely swathes the fizure—the great scallops s the hack heing cut in one plece with the dolman Deep hands of gray fox are 4 adornment The ensemble to its right hears the gamor= label of Lucien ailored of broadcloth, whi; ceiving special att big houses this year, ambergine. deep i too. introduces the universally be- coming dolman sleeves, and achieves further smartness by broad bands of pony fur at the cuffs and collar A third ensemble, not sketched, is from Goupy, a new star in the Pari- slan constellation. It is tailored of an original fabric of his own, closely re- sembling broadcloth, and is in a warm henna shade. emphasized by a_decora- tive collar of ponv in a combination of henna and white. The frock. de. cldedly milltary in bearing. is double breasted, and mav be worn closely buttoned at the neck. ill_another coat. not sketched, Venetian, introduces a wid dllar and Monsquetaire cnffs with a gathered. furtrimmed panel suspend- ed at one side from a large patch pocket A coat without fur is passe, even for sports wear.

The tunic and appliqued flowers are in And not the least of its charm lies in the interesting new sleeves. not sketched, is of black frost crepe with a tucked vest of rose-colored georgette, and a tiered skirt that flaunts pleats of the satin back of the material. Another shop displays one of the most distinctive street dresses of the season. It, too. stresses the vogue for military modes, and is of navy Drury Lane, with white flannel vest trimmed in red and gold. The coat- tike bodice and bottom of the skirt are scalloped, with pipings of red, accent- ed by a bright red kerchief and dec- { orative red buckle. Under the banner of Madelon come innumerable dresses for street and aft erncon wear, unique not only for their unusual lines and rich accessories, but for the price tag. which is well | within the limits of the most moderate purse. Fur coats strike a new note in fashion. Aslde from their usual note | of elegance. shown in the sketch at the right, there is the sports- mode, best shown in the many pony coats now so much in vogue. Slim and tallored. conforming as closely to the lines of the filgure as the severest tailored cloth coat, and finished with a military or short roll-collar of con- trasting fur. most often beaver. Ko- rova is a new fur being introduced this season—in reality Russian calf. It, too, is seen at its best in tailored coats and sometimes introduces a novel kasha or plaid wool lining and may be worn reversible. For dress wear nothing could be more handsome than the fur coat sketched, of per- fectly matched Japanese weasel, with self-colored collar, cuffs and hem band of fox. When choosing hats one has but a choice of the decidedly masculine or the essentlally feminine. The for- mer Is hest depicted in the well known Dobbs hats, one of which is sketched. It I of silky black velour, with high, stove-pipe. square crown and decidedly mannish band of gros- grain ribbon, in bright green and yel- low, finished with a cokade at one side.

One F street store, specializing in Reboux models, offers an amazing variety of ! these famous Paris hats, with im- mense crowns. Intricately creased, | with practically noe brim to speak of. Georgetie again holds first place for evening wear, and the orchid geor- gette dance frock sketched at the right introduces a new touch in the jabot at each side of the bodice. The skirt consists of four fluttering pan- els, bordered with flesh-colored chiffon and welghted with rhinestones, which also form a decorative motif on the bodice. A second dance frock, not sketched, is of the most exquisite shell-pink georgette. Very simple as to bodice, it attains the highest degree of smart- ness with ite skirt, which consists of rows of tiny panels covered with black sequins that are emphasized by a broad bow at the left hip, of shining black satin. Black velvet and gold brocade— what lovelier combination for evening wear? One finds it gorgeously die- played in an evening ensemble, the blouse of which s of black velvet, the skirt of pleated gold brocade. With it is worn an evening wrap, the back and sleeves of which are of the velvet, the front of the brocade. One can scarcely appreciate the beauty of the evening wrap sketched at left when shown in cold black and white. It is of a gorgeous metal cloth, woven by Bianchini, in silver and shades of flame, trimmed with bands of snow lynx. The lining, of ombre velvet, is in shades of orange that finally merge into exquisite violet tones. Truly manifique! Velvet is second in importance for evening wear. often combined with lame or chiffon and beaded with rhine- stones. Many robes de style also are shown—of taffeta always, with skirts reaching, in most instances, almost to the ground. Floral accessories predomin\e for hour of the day. Gigantic . The newest are those made of the thinnest rubber—so thin as to seem the actual petals of the flower itself. In colors for every costume. The Ruseian influence is strongly felt in jeweiry for day .or evening wear, featured most often of gold fili- gree, with large stone setting, fre- quently rhinestones.

Parkes Cadman. president of the Federal Couneil of Churches of Christ in America. Dr. Cadman seeks to auswer inquiries that appear to be repre. sentative of the trends of thought in the Tiany letters which he receives Utica, N. Y. Do vou believe that true friendship | is founded on equality or on the supe- rlority of one of the friends? Answer—That would depend upon the stage of development of the | triends. Sometimes, especially among the voung, the basis of friendship is | hero worship or the superiority of | the pegmon loved. In maturer life | equality is more often the bond which holds friends together. | In other cases. however, all thought | either of equality or superiority is lost in the consciousness that one person finds in the other that which comple- ments or iradiates his own life. There is a mystic magnetism which defies definition and overlcaps the riers of difference in social conditions | or native capacity. The noblest friendship obliterates | the Inequalities hetween those who cherish it by raising the one to the higher level of the other through that magic power by which we grow into the spiritual fmage of loved ones.

I have so far heen un- fortunate in not having my own home and children, a thing which 1 most deeply desire, the reason heing that men whom I have come in contact | with were not believers in God and | do not respect Sunday. | The rest of my brothers and sisters | are married, but they are different ! from me. They go to church one Sun- | day and the next they are playing cards and golf. This depresses me and makes it hard for me to invite true | Christians to my home on Sundays. | Now, I know one young man whom I can go with, but he drinks and he will not go to church every Sun- day. ‘What do you advise me to do—siay as 1 am and do the best I can or should I join that group which goes to church Sunday mornings and plays cards Sunday afternoons? 1 feel that if T do join this group I shall drift away from spiritual things, and these warnings have also made it hard for me to do my bit in the chure Answer—The ability to draw the line between true religion and prudery is a mark of high character and in telligence. Unwillingness to lower one’s bars when other people are do- ing so iz also a_mark of prudence and fortitude. The young woman who craves the companionship of a young man may feel the unfairness of competitors who copy male foibles or vices in order to entice men to PARKES CADMAN their pariors. Yet are the results worth the cost? Is it worth while for a high-minded scrap her standards in | wre the companionship or encourage the attentions of a young man who drinks?

Judge soundly the worth | of the male acquaintances who are now on your horizon.
