To adorn herself in a dress that fails to command admiration is to gamble with one's prestige. But, say some, in these days we can- not afford this or that. But, says Harris, here are a thou- sand dresses that can be bought at prices that take you back to when turkey was fifteen cents a pound. We're referring to Bettie Frocks at Sixteen Fifty and a wonderful group of Dresses at Twenty-five Dollars. Large or small, young or old, you 'll find beautiful dresses at either price, and we bet you'l agree they look like what twice the prlcc bought last year. Tomorrow is a grea+ time to see these dresses because two hundred will be shown for the first time in black and the cheerful colors holiday fes- tivities demand. g]oszpu ‘R'HARRIS (@ 1224 F STREET == of New Charles Yol'l %_ h lhgln{ at_the M their young son have returned to cms f country for a leave of absence Peiping, China, where the lormer is secretary of the United Btates legation.
