Lunar. Graceful shoulder Draperies In
Holt Muffs far Suuimer
Frocks.
"Most of my customers look what shall
I say? Forlorn? Yes, that is the exact
word-forlorn In the extreme sloping
shoulder. I have not the heart to copy
the models exactly for them. I will not
allow them to wear the extremes. I modify.
I adopt to the individual figure," said one
of the most fashionable of New York's
dressmakers, and she was quite right.
The ordinary woman does look forlorn
In ths exaggerated drooping ahoulder,
which euta her waist length sadly. When
this exaggeration Is combined with a short
skirt the result, save upon an unusually
long, slim and graceful figure, trailing
skirt is absolutely demanded by fichu
drapery or even by an extreme kimono
sleeve arrangement.
Fortunately it Is quite possible to modify
a majority of the draped models to meet
the requirements of any figure, and the
models sketched for this page are of course
open to such modification, but their main
features may be retained In each Instance.
In the cut are three models, all showlnt
variations upon the one theme of the fichu
or scarf drapery and all within the under
atanding and grasp of any clever dreas
maker. In the frock of Delft blue chiffon
taffeta the drapery assumes the air of a
separate shoulder wrap, although it la at
tached to the bodice, and Is little more than
a long wide scarf of atlk bordered by fringe
matching the silk, drawn tn soft folds
around the shoulders and held In at each
side of the front, Just above the waist line,
by handAome buckles. The scarf la caught
low on the back between the shoulder
blades by a buckle similar to those used in
front.
A second shoulder drapery was a detail
of a lovely frock In marquisette, trimmed
la oloth and CM of toe same oolur. Here a
back view has been sketched, showing how
the pelerine drapery of marquisette cloth
and lace, falling low on the shoulders. Is
drawn to a square buckle In the middle of
the back, at empire waist line, and from
there falls In long sashlike ends over the
skirt.
On tho same order was the drapery of
the frock In chiffon voile and lace; hut here
a long oval buckle was used and the
drapery enda Tall In short plaited basques.
Here, too, a liberty aatln girdle passed from
the buckle around to the front and the
drapery ends In front were crossed and
fastened to this girdle.
WORK OF THE CLUB WOMEN
Ylrslnla t'lnh Women Oricnnlie State
Federation After Many Years
of 1 ra in sr.
Virginia has at last come Into the Gen
eral Federation of Women's Clubs with a
state organisation. For years such an or
ganization has been worked for, but the
conservatism of the southern women was
hard to overcome until recently, when the
progress haa been rapid. The new state
federation comes In with twenty-five clubs,
a splendid beginning. This leaves Nevada
me oniy state in me union without a state
federation of women's clubs. Virginia has
for some time had several Individual clubs
In the general organization, and this state
assoeluUon la welcomed by all who appre
ciate tho benefits of such organization.
The United Daughters of the Confederacy
has fdr years suprllrd In the south the
place that the federation of clubB has
among the northern, western and eastern
states. Its work has been largely educa
tional and so hRs covered the ground. It
was ' not until the club women asserted
themselves so actively in tho Interest of the
child wage earner that the majority q the
southern women recognized the value of
the concerted action of a great national
oriranizatlon. Almost all the southern
states have their child labor problem, and
the Influence of the club women has as
much as anything else thelped to relieve
this condition.
At Its June meeting held Thursday morn
ing at the Paxton hotel the Visiting Nuraes"
association decided to adjourn its meetings
until September, the work of the associa
tion to be carried on in the meantime un
der the direction of the board. This ad
journment is customury owing to the ab

members during the midsummer. The past

THE ART OF CONVERSATION
What Natnral Gift One Has Should
Be Studied and Culti
vated. General knowledge the chief essential
to really good conversation. In these days
there are so many opportunities for mental
Improvement that it la almost lnexouslble.
for anyone to be uninformed. Books, mag
azines and newspapers are within the reach
of everyone. The best authorities will help
anyone to culture, or at least to a correct
use of the English language. A thoughtful
woman, while speaking recently of shyness
and self-consclousns. suggested that much
benefit might be derived from reading aloud
every day several pages of good English
prose and some good poetry. The voice and
the mind will become trained ln this way
and there will be less nervousness In con
versation. Books and new authors afford
good topics for conversation. Many people
claim some knowledge of books absolutely
essential to easy conversation.
While there are no rules by which one
may learn to become a clever entertaining
talker, because the natural gift Is the foun
dation upon which this accomplishment Is
built, everyone can cultivate what gift he
has and there la no reason or excuse for
one's not Improving. At least everyone
should make an effort to discover what
qualities aro necessary requisites for agree
able conversation, wkat faults prevent one's
appearing to advantage and what Is the
reason for shyness, embarrassment or dull
ness. It Is everyone's duty to himself to
make the miet of himself and to appear his
very best, while be owes tt to society, If he
mingles there at ail, to make an effort to be
bright, entertaining and sympathetic.
Keep up with the events of the day, gen
eral and local, and be able to speak Intel
ligently of them. Conversation must be
natural and spontaneous to be really at
tractive. Agreeable talk alternates quickly between
the serious and gay. All dullness, dryness.
detail and tedlousness should be avoided.
There Is no end of pleasant things that may
be talked about without Including person-
! ""ties. Bright stories, if one has a faculty
I f" telling them, help out. It should not
be forgotten, however, that the ability to
listen well Is also an Important requisite.
Learn, If you can, what others are Inter
ested In, and then get them to talk. If this
can be accomplished one need not fear for
the result. Intelligence, a good mind, the
desire to learn and the determination to Im
prove oneself are aids to success la conver
sation as well as In life.
