NFW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 1914 Page of News for Theater Goers and Women Readers ost of New Morning Dark Tones With Touches of White arine Gabardine Is As Simple a Design As Any—Black Leather Buttons Make a Catchy Trimming — Debu- tante May Wear Black Satin. Very busy these days is the debut- nte-elect. She is preparing for the leason at the fashionable autumn re- orts where she will be very much i1 wvidence at horse shows and kindred bpen air events. What more natural herefore than that she should wish her clothes, albeit simple, to be of the nartest order? Consequently the election of these frocks and hats is onsuming a goodly portion of her ttention, time and money. A not inconsiderable amount of noney goes into the new morning 'ocks. And most . of these are in lark tones, since, for a time, everyone weary of putting on all-white di- ectly after breakfast, although ouches of white are on -nearly every pne of these models. As simple in design as any that he debutante-elect wore last year in fhe school room is a morning frock n marine gabardine. While scant, s skirt is straight-cut and gathered o a waist-band, joining it to a blouse hirred to a yoke which slants fror lhe collar bones to below the arm- bits, and drops low on the shoulders Into these shoulders are plainly itted the tops of elbow bell sleeves, ightly caught into an applied. band nning across .ie top of the arms n entirely novel treatment of leeves, this, and one worth noting t a period ‘when daytime arm cover- ngs are usually of full length and in bishop, mousquetaire or conven- ional shape. lack Leather Buttons on Trimming. Black leather buttons of small size fefine the only trimming of this rock, which takes the form of a hite linen waistcoat, over which the blouse opens squarely to below th- ust. From there it becomes a nar- ow panel, running -under a black ather belt to below the nips. About e rather low cut neck Is a narrow- ly turned-over linen collar, whose boints follow the yoke's slant. A harming model for a debutante, s ell as for a schoolgirl, and good in ny dark shade in gabardine. Gabardine, it may be said, in pass- g, comes in two shades—imported nd domestic. The domestic fabric ooks a marvellous imitation of the ported, but its§ weave is inferir na its color range less exclusive. ‘A fetching little shape in hats boks as though.it had been specially esigned to go with the marine gak- KEENEY'S WEEK OF AUGUST 10.

It is a white | felt of softest texture, with a long { oval crown banded with fine, flexible lblack leather, against which rolls a narrow brim, slightly depressed at | front and rear. It somewhat sus- | gests an English walking hat, but | lacks the severe and “elderly” look | of that model. The new simpl- | shape is as practical for the debu | tante’'s morning use as for the al most grown-up school girl's gener! | service. Debutante May Wear Black Satin, Black satin is not denied to the debutante-elect providing that sho refrains from using too much of i She does not wear an entire gown ot that material, but she orders a cos- tume extensively garnished with Perhaps the most charming ex- ample of this is shown here in the afternoon frock of black satin, cor: bined with white satin foundation, veiled in a double flouncing of blacxk lace. The semi-fitting basque ot black satin is finished with a ruche | of black shadow lace. A Tose of deep red nestles on the 'eft shoulder. Cheviot is so fashionable this autumn that it should justly be re- garded as a new material. and it is novel in that never before has it be:n so fine and altogether alluring. Were it not almost #s flexible as is a sheer fabric, it could not have been used for the development of the model whose skirt is tiered with three flounces bordered with broad black satin bands. Soie Ondoyant a New Fabric A coquettish jacket in the cheviot has a loose back, with coyd and tas- sel-laced seams, ending ‘ust below the waist; short fronts bloused un- der a black satin girdle and sleeve- caps laced at the tops of black satin bishop sleeves. The debutante’s school girl sister need not think that she can wear this costume. It is a degree too mature for her. and ste may as well console herself with the reflection that by the time she is ready to ‘‘come out” something even more desirable will have been launched. Soie ondoyant, another new fabric which plays a leading role amoug autumn novelties, is used In bla 'k for a debutante’s visiting and church costume. But the sombre tone is modified by the cheerful tones blended in the plaid silk combined with it. This silk appears in an unlerskirt, narrow and with perfectly matched gores, two-thirds covered by a pleated tunic in soie ondoyant, havitg fronts button-jointed as far down as the hips. At the waist the pleats vanish under a silk vestee-basque, with crossed fronts running to short points on the hips - and low- dropped shoulders close-fitted over the tops of narrow black soie ondo- vant sleeves, with turned-back white silk cuffs, New Type of Collar. A white silk collar, high at back and tapering to the finest of points at the bust, is outlined by a wide band of the black silk which, crossing on the front of the basque and running into its side seams, simulates a bolero. The collar is not akin to the overworked flarrg Medici and the so-called Norman. It is simply a wide affair, high stan?- ing at the back of the neck, turned over into sharp little points behird the ears and tapered in front to pre- vent contact with the chin. Its shane is as new as soie ondoyant is novel among fabrics. Many upstanding collars to wear with tailored costumes will be fash- ioned in figure vilk or velvet, ani will take the place of fur. The narrow skirt has a long pleatea tunic. The cutaway coat has a swai- low tail back, and is trimmed with small self-covered butttons und larger size bone buttons. the One of those dainty flowered voile | dresses at Miss Ryan’s, 79 Pratt street, Hartford, would be useful for | finishing out the summer, and also to wear on many informal occasions all through the fall. Miss Rvan has marked them down so very low, less thdn half in many instances, that it is really economy to buy now. Aavt.

It is a brilliant receiving it with a great deal of en- thusiasm every day. There are six people in the company and each pos- sesses a voice of rare qualities, In- dividually and collectively the voices are heard to excellent advantage. The solos are splendidly sung and the chorus numbers are rendered with a spirit that holds the audience en- thralled. Selections from the most popular of the Italian operas are given, Every member of the company for- merly played with some of the world’s biggest opera troupes. Mr. Fran- conia was at one time a soloist with He has a fine baritone voice and his solo is one of the big hits of the act. While it is of an entirely different character, the act of the Four Regals should be measured with the operatic specialty. It is a gymnastic novelty entitled “The Armorers,” and is re- plete with sensational feats. One of the quartet is a gymnast of remark- able strength and he accomplishes some wonderful tricks. . The act is | well staged, the scenery representing a smithy shop of days gone by. Another artistic specialty that well deserves the praise given it is the act of Demitriuse, a Greek poser. His work is the finest ever seen in this He poses as a bronze figure il- lustrating mythical characters of older Greece and for a finale gives a display of muscular development at whicn the audience marvels every day. Price and Arnold entertain with pilano and violin selections. They are premier ragtime singers and render several good numbers. Stanley and Moore offer a song and conversational number of high class. There is an turn. Mr. Stanley’s rendition of “My Old Lady” is one of the best features of the act, The Pathe Review, mid-week edi- tion, will be shown tonight.

MANAGER BIRCH COMES TO TOWN | Expects to Open Lyceum for Coming Labor Day, September 7. i Season on Manager Birch of the Lyceum Stock company came to town last evening and went to New York today to ar- range for plays to be presented at the Lyceum this season which is expected to open Labor day, Monday, Septem- ber 7. Mr. Birch has been spending his holidays in Canada and is a bit |tanned up after the summer. He says | he feels good and he looks it. Mr. Birch stated that he did not know just how his company will be made up this season but added that he would know in a few days and will be glad to let the New Britain | people know all about it. There is no doubt but that Mrs. Hibbard will be a member. When asked about Birch remarked he what effect it would have on the theatrical business. He did say, however, that practically all the | the war Mr. did not know paints used on scenery comes from abroad. ETHE FATAL PLUNGE i AT FOX'S THEATER “The Fatal Plunge,” a vivid tale of conspiracy with a tragic and awe- inspiring climax clearly and interest- ingly told in three parts will be the feature attraction at Fox’s theater to- day, in addition to the regular pro- gram of first run and carefully se- lected photo-plays from the Associa- tion studios. The story deals with | Ccunt Durant being in desperate fi- nancial straits, visits his sister who aggests to him a scheme to raise moeney. He requests the hand of a i wealthy manufacturer’s daughter, and | succeers in winning consent to their marriage. This is sad newsd to the manufacturer’s secretary as he is deeply in love with his employer's daughter. Edith soon learns to regret her unfortunate marriage, as she is sadly neglected by her scheming hus- bund. Her father failing in health, turns over the management of the business to the secretary, and soon after the count tries to induce the pew manager to advance a large sum cf money and on being refused, re- sorts to robbery. A terrible struggle ensues, but the manager finally over- comes the desperate count. The manufacturer, attracted by the com- tat, witnesses his son-in-law’s mur- derous attack and realizing his true character, has his will drawn up, and disinherits him, as a result of which ard to the great excitement the old man succumbs to an attack of heart failure, The balance of the eight reel mction picture program is made up cf some of the best comedies and c¢ramas from the association manu- fecturers and include such films as “Andy Learns to Swim,” an Edison rip-roaring comedy. “The Manaeu- vers of Joel and Father's Second Time on Earth,” another comedy from the pen of George Ade.
