public speakers, it appears in large

her duty in her own way. This kindly

send her another guest the next Sun-

A Touch of
Masculinity
By GERTRUDE BERESFORD. j
rpHERE is some thins perversely
fascinating in a waistcoat on a j
slender figure. This masculine vest
and suspenders, jnado of lavender
linen, are particularly effective over a
shirt of finely woven lavender voile.
A skirt border of linen is added to a
plainly gathered skirt of voile. Tiny
pearl buttons fasten the shirt, which
has an interesting collar. Large pearl
buttons' hold the double-bressted
waistcoat with bound buttonholes.
Linen cuffs turn back under pearl
buttons. This is a smart little frock,
and the combination of thin and thick
materials in the same shade is quite
a new touch. This gown may be ef
fectively developed in organdie and
linen.

Fans! Well, you should have seen
them! The palm leaf variety? No,

flesh and blood cigar smoking, "D'ja

in evidence at every affair these days,
for the Red Cross has entered the
world of sports and she has come to
stay "for the duration of the war."
So quietly she slipped in that we
hardly knew it, but you noticed that
the programs were emblazoned with
her insignia and the national colors
and then, too, when Mrs. Dick

gingham gown and tiny hat of green
with some woodsy daisies nodding
about the crowty said, "only a quar

Girls in Profusion.
Girls there were i,i profusion and
charming young matrons looking so
attractive in their canteen costumes.
These pretty merchants sold pro
grams and admittance cards and nary
a man escaped them. Far down the
driveway you could see them, their
white veils fluttering in the breeze,
stopping every machine and tagging
the occupants. Misses Nina and
Louise Dietz were most energetic
and their supply of little booklets
sQon gave out, but the smiles did not.

one handsome youth in flannels to
