It was such fun to tumble them out on the table and hunt through them. “Would you like to learn to put some of these gay scraps to- gether, Emily?” Mother asked one day. “O! Yes! I would!” Emily answered. So they picked out a red satin piece, and one that was like Mother's kimona, and one that was blue with silver stripes, and a purple one with white star- flowers in it. And that day Emily learned how to meke fine, little stitches sewing the bright scraps to- gether. #(Clements Anmounces He Will he | check. ard for the erec- | .| to a heavyv DEMPSEY GITED 10 APPEAR INCOURT Pay §300,000 on Wills Bout New York, Dempsey, Aug. 4.

Well-dressed women and abroad recognize tk |ot black for intorma ning wear, |Tn this season of brilliant colors and | strongly marked designs ,a frock of plain black chiffon, or chiffon com- {bined with lace, strikes a smart note of contrast. In addition,' a black dinner gown s immensely practical, a point to be remembered when se- ilecting a number of evening gowns. The afternoon dress sketched to- is black chiffon made without ! contarsting trimming. Its | artness’ and indubitable air of | | distinction are due to the ingenious handling of the skirt and to the molded lines of the close-fitting bodice | Four rows of finely pleated | fruffles ,the edges of which are fron- | od out to give the effect of fluted flowsl potdls tosss « kracetil and | flattering skirt. 1t is very short, ()H' iccepted 16 inches 1 The bodice ix made of tucked chiffon the tiny tucks about an inch | and running horivontally. The ped neck-line and long, tight | s s contribute further to the ef- | fect of elegance, Paris favors the tiered skirt, a smart example of which is the suffled and pleated <kirt of this black chifion dinner gown.
