He looked at me cddly. “We shall all be armed and arm- >red.” he said with an intonation that T havé learned means a distinet o thoroughfare as far as answering questions is concerned “What's the matter?” Dicky quer Dicky | King un- si whole ar- st of Nothing.” T said dully, then sw reful to- , clutching at hi | Swiftly he caught up my hand in his. “Now perhaps you can guess how T feel about those stunts Harry's giving you,” he said.

And then, without a glance around, we went down to the apartment again. For a fleeting moment 1 had believed | Dicky to be on the verge of adding something to the ultimatum he had given me—something which would have put his prohibition upon a dif- ferent plane from the one he might asily have given a mother or a ster. But the moment had passed and T found my self vaguely unsatis fied, though thrilling to the knowl- edge of his protective concern. The day of waiting was a most try- ing thing for all of us. We tried to sleep, for we knew no one of us could close our eyes during the time when the “tiger trap” was being sprung. But sleep was impossible, nd when the morning hour of 4 o'clock drew near every one of our group was as tense as the traditional The Zero Hour “It's the loneliest hour of the twenty-fou Mr. Underwood said s we gathered in his apartment for black coffee, which was all any of us could swallow. “They chose it on purpose, of course. It's before the scrubwomen and the early por- ters come on and while the cops are changing their heats. But there's no need for worry. The Dicky Bird and I. with a couple of my best fellows, will be in that room next to the one where Georges is going to wait. The paneling has been cut and put on revolving hinges, so that we can be the room in a second when Georges will let the ks for admittanc and when we're sure he—or they well we'll steal in and stick 'em up with appropriate ges- tures. “Phil and Noel, you're to stay in this apartment and take care of the women,” he went on in so author- manner, that any protest hed to make died on his Mhere will be a couple of guards just outside the door, but T don’t think you'll need ’em.

T think Lillian was undergoing the same struggle, al- though she gave no sign of it. But fter Prince Georges had left, my | anxiety shifted to another quarter. tently something deep in my ousness tried fo give me 1 concerning the old woman 1 had interviewed, but for a long in- terval, while T went over and over every detail of the woman's appear- ace, T could not get it.

I feel particularly grat- ified at this because I sincerely be- lieve my efforts have contributed to this spirit of renaissance made man- ifest especially during the last two scasons. Today all the traditions of Haute Couture are being respected. Fash- ion creators once more are compell- cd to furnish ever season a sustain- ed and constant effort. The fact of having presented one successful col- llection by no means allows the cou- turier to rest on his laurels for the succeeding season. After the period of stagnation we all suffered from there has succeed- ed one overflowing with new icaas, the result of searching and ard nt studies. These ideas arc apt to ap- pear exaggerated in their original | expression, but they never fail in in- terest and soon become attuned to their proper key. I think that this the Haute Cou- ture will move conclusively, in its very desire continually to create something new, its tremendously vi- tal spirit. The modern couturier has proven by his ready adaption to the intense and accelerated rythm of modern life, that he is capable of meeting every exigency. at (ahse New Silhouette is Patouw’s Creation 1 have been told that the silhou- ette 1 created last season marked an epoch in the history of contem- porary fashions. It was sufficiently new for me to rest on this success land continue on the same theme still another season. I concluded, however, that it would be vastly amiising and more sportsmanlike to set to work once more and create a collection on the same “leit-motif” but with new and characteristi> features. These features have perhaps up- set preconceived ideas as to what T should show. 1 have, for instance. placed the waistline somewhat high- er than in my summer collection but it is by no means “Empire.” Swirts are uniformly long for eve- ning wear; with me the uneven hem is a thing of the past. Practical day dresses ‘have under- gone no great radical change. They show unmistakable signs, however. of the tendency of greater length apparent in evening sowns. s There's Touch of Fantasy in : Gowns | Nowadays it is in the evening wown and its accompanying wrap that one must seck proof of the cre ator’s latest efforts. Every fantasy i ble in an evening gown and a woman's ning nermi only in this realm can craving for real elegance and sump tuonsness be fulfilled. My new silhouette is very signifi cant: a nractically high waistline and a skirt length which ean be but becoming to most women. will once more be enveloped in mys- tery! | . . Simplicity is Mark of Refinement, Techntque One of the most important feat- ures of the new styles is that they will demand all the technique of tried artists to be successful. A | model gown will require several fit- tings by people thoroughly compe |tent and knowing the traditions of their calling. Any formula that is and capable of being grasped by the erowd soon becomes for that vy reason of very little value. In all brahches of art an apparent simplicity is characteristic of refine- ! mént and perfect technique. PR . | English Fabrics and Tweeds Will Reign S far as materials are concerned, | English fabrics and tweeds will dom- inate this winter: I have also used quite a number of plain and fancy wool jerseys. All sweaters the higher waistline and are remin- iscent of the Russian blouse rather than the estabiished idea of a sweat- er. . . Full Length Coats Will Disappear White a spirit of exuberance and fantasy will pervade feminine fash- fons, this will always be tempered by the desire to preserve the lines of a woman's figure. Full-length coast will seldom be seen. They will be replaced by coats of varying lengths. The three-quart- crs length will be most popular, T {hink, and this has been brought |about by the influence of the fash- jons of the ‘‘eighties.” O Patou Reveals His Newest Colors My new colors this season are dark and light dahlia and a partic ular shade of red. The first has that dark blueish purple tint to be found in the flower. I also feature a cer- tain shade of emerald green and, as _'usual, a good deal of black over prints. I have used printed shawls and handkerchiefs with plain borders for a number of printed es and these mostly in light- weight wools. .| 1or afternoon and evening wear T have rather abandoned “ring’ for a short-pile velvet.

Burgess Gardner and C. Baker determined to study the ¢ feets of this extraordinary athletic leffort on those taking part. Nincty of the competitors were given a ph |sical examination and the records !of their lives were made previous to the contest. | Doctor Baker accompanied the |walkers during the entire race and lrecorded at regular intervals any changes which occurred in the walkers and the general effects of |the competition and the weather upon them. | The oldest walker was cars lcld and the youngest 17. p- | | peared to the physicians that only |40 of the 199 competitors were like- lly to be able to stand any kind of Istrenuous competition.

In fact, the greafest reason for withdrawing from the race was not ill health or exhaustion, but finan- _ cial difficulty and lack of interest in the contest. The evidence indicates that a high caloric intake derived from a wide variety of foods is better for £ tain effort than any fixed dietic regime.
