8-"B
New York. Dec. 18. (Special Cor
respondent:.) Ai lomebody takl,
the opera box thii year look like
the English window box. Of coarse
the author of tin's remark had ber
ryes fixed on a particular section of
the horseshoe where the white daisies
and red geraniums of Lunnon Town
were echoed in white satin and red
velvet. However the same choice is
frequent enouuh to aive to the com
nariton a rerUin degree of authority,
Certain it is that there hasn't been
no mudi color turned loose on New
York in many a. long day. If the
ghost of some old Venetian doge had
wandered into the Metropolitan opera
house the first night he would have
felt absolutely at home. Indeed, the
corRcous Venetian fete given
Paris tits last summer has undoubt
rdly been responsible for our New
1 ork f venules looking like a palette,
The majestic purples and reds, the
jeweled green, the blues that roam
from sapphire to forget-me-not, the
Kliiitiiifr brocades, laces that look
like patterns of sunbeams or moon
gleams surely that old painter who
put the tint in 1 mtorctto would have
Tvelei it this winter of 19J1-72.
Froinincnt among these colors is
oeranium red. And is it any wonder
that this was the favorite flower of
Charles Dickens? For not even a
red roe can euual the velvety, dusky
depths of this carmine. Naturally, it
i best echoed in velvet, and the col
Irctions of both foreign and home
designers have contained many-even
ing dresses and wraps in velvet ot
Kcranimn red. Sometimes, evening
kowiis of this tone are combined
with cold or silver lace or with em
broidery or beads of these glinting
metallic hues.
It sounds' perhaps a little too
resplendent a little too much like
toreador's costume but nevertheless
some of these gorgeous creations
dazzle you into conviction that such
is the right way to spend your even
ings. Many of the evenings gowns
have V backs. A number ot them
have corresponding fronts. But
there is no hard and fast rule, and
this is a season when you may do it
round, square, or as you like. A
point which I have emphasized fre
quently, but which is so important
that many, repetitions cannot absolve
from present mention, is the diagonal
line often pursued by both bodice
and skirt Many of the V's in the
back come, not at the center, but at
the side. And indeed the- whole effect
of these elaborate toilettes is some
times so zigzag and irregular that
they look as if a nor'easter had been
the dressmaker on the job.
Do not think when you have got
yourself into your evening frock that
"your toilette is accomplished. The
frock of any kind- is today hardly
more than an accessory. It is the
little things that make the perfection
of the costume. , . -
First of all, there are earrings
Nowadays we wear these almost as
constantly as does an Italian child.
Often they are rings almost big
enough to look like part of a gym
nasium equipment. At other times
they are just long chains or pend
ants. Made of precious or senii-
precious stones, just as the occasion
of your potketbook permits, . they
pre. nevertheless, there. And in
heloing out the color scheme of your
toilettd they are just about as im
portant as the vase which' the inter
ior decorator sets up on your mantel.
1 realized this when I saw the occu
pant of one opera box gowned in
white chiffon trimmed with white

something to relieve the severity of
the present day coiffure. This, is
very severe. Our foreheads are ex
posd as mercilessly as a Spartan
child. Dear help us if they are too
high or too low or too bumpy. For
we strain our locks straight back.'
After that the program is dependent
upon taste.
A favored mode is to build a hieh
tower oii the head through which
we stick at a rakish angle one of
the ever popular Spanish combs. An
other is to spread out the knot in a
tan shaped roll. And, ot course, tt
you feel that you are classic enough

Coq feather fans are extremely
popular, but incidentally we may
note that there seems to be a re
action taking place just now in favor
cf the small headed gauze fan of
other days. Also, there are some
wonderfully attractive new models in
lace. Of course, the plumy fan is
still in the ascendant, but one notes
here and there evidences of the re
turning tide of the fabric fan.
But to go back to our gowns. Vel
vet is the favorite of the season.
However, brocades, gold and silver
tissues, laces, and crepes are all
good. And it is not to be over

which combine with those of gerani

Christmas Dinner Date Is
Puzzling. '
Selection of a dinner date for this
Christmas is puzzling many hosts
and hostesses, as the holiday, coming
on Sunday, provides two possible
days for spreading the Yuletide feast
and inviting in friends and relatives.
Sunday, of course, is the real
Christmas day, although the official
holiday is the following Monday.
Christmas eve comes on Saturday
night, the logical time for Christmas
is the next day. But if Christmas is
observed then there will he nothing
to do Monday.
One solution has been suggested
by making the hosts of Sunday the
guests for Monday.

sembly of the Presbyterian church of
