Glovesto Match the Costume If it’s blue, it’s blue; if it’s green, it’s green—from p to toe. The color a woman ap- plauds this season she may carry out in every detail of her apparel—she will be a symphony in brown, gray, blue, taupe, gold, Copenha- gen or any of the other hues of the rainbow, and indeed, in many instances it seems to us as though manufac- turers had added a tone or two to the colors of the rain- bow. 80, when we talk of Gloves, we oan say something of every hue. There are Gold, Orange, Royal Purple, Dark Blue, Copen- , Terra Cotta, eto.—all the colors you would expect to find in the finer dress materials and silks. The little decorations in the way of embroidered backs, con- trasting cuffs and other lt- tle nofes of newness make our display of gloves so different from the ordinary that no wom- an who desires to be en mode will fail to see It. The fact that in each instance the quantity of any one style is limited assures you of exclusive- ness.

Julia Claussen, soloist for the Mendelssohn cholr concert, which will be glven at Boyd's theater this evening, has definite and rather fresh ideas about the war. ‘“The world of opera will feel the effect of the European war for generation after the conflict is ended,” she says. “How many Carusos are lying dead on the battlefields, their volces unheard by the world? How many Linds and Nordi- [ Making up attr cas will be orphaned by the struggle, probably left to die of starvation o posure, or at least be driven into tofl |TUns riot. Paresols in brilllant shades, which wlill forever obscure their vocal | hand embroidered and otherwise festoc possibllities from the world.” “For example,” she says, “if your civil war in America had come a few years |thing to fill milady’ later, your great genius, Thomas A. Edi- son, might have been among the youthtul n in the ranks of the dead at Gettys- burg, and we would not today be using his electric lights, his telephones, his phonograph. There is no doubt, but that many Edisons and other potential geni- uses were lost to the world in that struggl “The same thing is happening in Europe today. The whole world will feel the loss. America will to a certain extent profit. Prospects are that the great sing- ers of the next generation will be Amer- fcans. Militarism will not have cut through the ranks of the living, depriv- ing the country of voices that it may have taken generations to perfect.” Commercial Club Loses Its Pianist~- Selby Gets Mumps ‘Tragedy hath befallen the good fellow- ship dinner to be held Thursday evening at 6:15 at the Commercial club. ‘The planist hath the mumps. ¥Frank Selby is the man who was to do the stunts on the ivories as one fea- ture of the evening's program.

More actors have been en- listed In the troupe than there are privates in Villa's army, according to the authorities. An efficlent guard will be stationed in the building that night to keep out all orators. In other words, orators will not be allowed above the second floor and the dinner is on the eighteenth floor.

A profusion of apple blossoms, pink | and red roses and luxuriant foliage, f transforms the display windows and | the entire store into a garden or | woodland, while real canary birds and white Java sparrows in highly ornamenta] Swiss cages, give just the proper. touch of “atmosphere” to the whole ensemble. All the adjectives in Webster's bridged fall short of describing the beau- ties of the gowns themselves! Tier upon una- tier of sheer, delicate chiffons and credes cunningly combined with fiimy laces and given a brilliant dash by the addition of shimmering gold and stiver lace, or gold and silver beads, all these are intrcduced to make up a work of art that inspires exclamations of de.diht from all the fair | ones who gaze thereupon. | American Style And here is the best poy of all.

Dainty, alluring, yes, even seductive are the blouses on exhibition. The filmieat of lace blouses rival the ever-popular Georgette crepes in milady's favor, the cape collur of lace being the distinguishing feature of the new blouses. The detachable bishop collar and a new three-ruffic collar with corresponding three-ruffle cuff is dis- tinctly smart, while the eternally feminine trills and fichus are shown on all the latest models.

J., spoke on “The Soclal Life of Catholic Women in the United States.” In speaking of the social workers In! general, Father Wallace sald: “Althéugh non-Catholic women do an immense amount of good in thelr soclal work, the Cathollc women do more and they do it quietly,” Seventy thousand Catholic women in the United States have dedicated their lives to the service of humanity, Father Wal- lace told his hearers, in speaking of the nuns and siste In addition to these women, he explained, there were others, not in orders, who were working in every parish of the country, Father Wallace further went into the work of the investigation of charitable Institutions now in progress in New York and he said that Dr. Bernstein, who h been working against Catholie institu- tions, had to admit on the witness stand that the Catholic religious workers were the most consistent, the most perserver- Ing and that they did the most good.
