The skirt is ever so slightly draped feross its front. Or rather, to be kact, it does not fall directly from faist to feet. But its sides are so raight that, owing to some dex- ous turn of the cutter's hand, they ake a slender line on hips which re over well developed. This narrow appearance below e waist 1s continued across the ack, where the train begins in tiny leats and falls in shallow folds to he floor. However, instead of per- hitting the extra length at the back the skirt to lie flatly upon the arpet, only its hem really drags. e rest of the material—a dull lack, corded silk, for it is a mourn- g dinner gown—holds itself aloot ecause’ the mysterious side arrange- ent of the skirt compels it to do b. Thus, whether viewed from the ar or in profile, the skirt has the ppearance of having heen made for really stately woman.

Because the | sauare end of this train is noticeably rower than the top. it apparently i s as many inches to the height and | much of stateliness to the bearing | of its wearer as does the one on the | mourning dinner gown. For he Tall Girl. Let no one imagine that the wisp- like train is to be despised because it is mentioned in frivolous terms. On the contrary, it is the sort of long skirt which many women carry re- markable well, It is precisely the one for the girl who considers herself over- tall. For while it does not make her look taller—owing to its habit of coil- ing itself behind the heels—its presence gives her a sense of dignity which she feels in duty bound to live up to. And a dignified girl never car- ries herself awkwardly. Narrow Underskirt with Slender Train. Designed especially for an excep- | tionally tall_young beauty is the din- | ner gown Whose underskirt of white Brussels net is pearl beaded in a con- ventional pattern. Caught in so close- Iy about the ankles that the feet ap- pear to be emerging from Turkish trousers legs, the narrow train looks mcere like the fallen end of a scarf | tkan a part of the gown. The white sleeveless tunic is made of two lengths of chiffon gathered | under narrow bands at the shoulders, | crossed in front over a beaded Brus- sels lace plastron and irregularly caught to the waist line under the narrowest of breaded girdles. The drawn-up sides of this tunic, which | at front and back falls to below the knces, contribute to the shortening effect demanded by this young woman, who as vet has not learned to appre- | | crate her exceptional height. Voluminous Draperies of Cream Lace. IFashion has launched a train cer- | tain to delight the young matron-who | gees in for stately poses and who | expresses a scorn for the modern | dances which she probably does not | genuinely feel. Even'if tempted by | the) rhythm of the musie, she could not accomplish the maxixe steps while | wearing this new model in cream lace and black satin. For so closely is its | satin slip held held in below the knces | and so heavily i its long and pointed | vet rippling train weighted, that with cvery forward step the skirt is dragged backward from the ankles. Neverthe- less its effect is not slender.above the Knees, where the cream lace draper- ies are voluminous, and at the back are caught high under the wide two- 100p brow of the satin, set diagonally. | In this gown is seen a novel expres- sion of the fitted high girdle. It is of satin i empire width and shape, and | its tulle ruche-edged top makes a dis- | tinct though soft line against a bodice in cream lace. Black tulle bor- ders its looped-up, _sleeve-caps, and from the right shotlder a length of tlie gauze runs down the back over the girdle under the diagonally set bow and becomes a sash end, falling below the left hip. “THE LOST DIAMOND” IS BIG FOX FILM | 2.0 “The Lost Diamond,” the three part feature photo-play replete with sen- sational and stirring incidents which carries the spectator through a series of clean thrills and with an excep- tionally dramatic story will be shown at Fox’s theater today as the stellar attraction on the premier photo-play program, The story eclipses in ex- cellence that of “The Great Diamond Robbery” made famous several years ago for its great detective story and its numerous amount of thrills, and the Fox patrons who will witness this screen portrayal will be afforded rare motion-picture treat. \The balance of the big and varied program is made up of all first run attractions from the Associated Stu- dios and include such exceptional fea- tures as A Tango Spree,” an Edison very funny satire of the modern dan- cing craze and which abounds with A Clean Sweep | of all our discontinued and broken lines of Women's Oxfords and Pumps at a saving of from 50c to $1.50 a pair.

To promise in an expansive mond to do a kind and generous act is the simplest and most natural thing in the world. To fulfill that promise after the expansive mood has another thing. Were “something noble and kind we could,” most of us would be patterns of But kind acts are not so easily accomplished self-gratification of careless promises is a common, recognized form of selfishness. An acquaintance of mine has thix habit. He is ise to do anything for his friends. *When we get this tennis court built you may auise it any time vou like,” he generously assures his flat-dwelling neighbor. Or, “You like cherries? Well, when ours are ripe we'll send you in a big box full of the best cheuries you ever tasted.” And he doesn't say such things merely to show off, either. He really means them at the time, He is naturally kKindhearted and gener ous in an easy sort of way, that is he likes to give—if it doesn’'t cost him any personal sacrifice. But when it does—well, that's quite another matter. When the tenins court is built, perhaps he finds that he wante to use it himselt at the only time his friend could have availed himself of the generous invitation. Or again, the crop of cherries is smaller than usual and there are really none to spare. And then, since his generous impulses had so little solid ground of real unseifishness to grow in, they are likely to wither and dry up without bearing any fruit. We were discussing this man the other day and someone held that he was less selfish than the type which is not generous enough even to offer to do his fellow creatures a kindness now and then. 1 hold the opposite. For he who offers and does not fulfill is likely to cause ment; whereas he who neither offers nor fulfills cannot disappoint which he has not raised. When 1 was much younger, before I learned to recognize the type of the Cheerful Promiser and to be careful not to build my hopes upon his promises. 1 was frequently his victim. 1 especinlly remember one oceasion when a woman of this type who found me bored, lonesome and homesick in a dull country town, immediately promised to do all sorts of kind things for me, The bound from despair to hope was tremeéndous, and the rebound, when none of the nice things materializéd. even moré so. Doesn't the intention of fulfilling a promise like this count for anything you ask. Yes, it removes the stigma of deliberate cruelty from the act, doesn’t take away the stigma of eelfishnese Generous promises carelessly made and carélessly left unfulfilled are just one more form of the good intention: whosé function everyone knows 80 well. passed iz quite and good done by merely wishing unselfishness And to though indulge in the not commonly always ready to prom- disappoint- hopes but it TN Cona Fashion Talks 1 Y.
