A Bride's Query.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee: I
read your advice In The Omaha Bee,
so am coming to you for advice, too.
I am to be married this month and
would like to know if Jewelry could
be worn on the wedding day and
what color, and out of what goods
should the wedding dress be made?
Must a girl wear a wreath on tier
head, or could she wear only a
flower in her hair on the wedding
day?
Please answer these questions for
m and am thanking you in ad
vance. A. B. C.
Jewelry may be worn with
propriety on one's wedding day.

groom except, of course, the wed
ding and engagement rings. The
bride's dress may be of the color
and kind she wishes to have. Usual
ly if she is married in her traveling
costume, a tailored suit is her
preference. With this she wears
her hat. corsage and gloves. If it
is an evening wedding-, a white gown
is always most charming, though not
necessary to legal performance of
the ceremony. A wreath is likewise
not essential, though a bridal veil is
frequently worn with a white eve
ning gown. ;

Evening Gowns Are as Far
From the Uniform
Lines as Possible
Away,
By ELEANOR GUNN.
There never was a time when a
woman could exercise more in
dividuality' in dress than the pres
ent. Fashions soon Will be going
through a transitory period. There
is not the slightest trace of the in
fluence of the uniforms in which so
many women have lived for prac
tically two years. It was predicted
that the comfort of the uniform,
with its many pockets and its free
dom from ieminizing frills would
start a vogue for comfort which
would find expression in suits that
were mannish and in dresses that
were plain.
Quite the reverse . has been the
case. Every woman who served
during the war and wore a uniform
dav in and day out expressed her
self as being eager to be back tn
"civies." They did not gainsay the
comfort and the time-saving and the
durability of the uniform, but they
were glad to take up the burden of
being well dressed, and the problem
of "what shall I wear," just for the
sweet privilege of being feminine
gain- . . , . .
It is true that suits had a bigger
sale last year than for 'many years,
and this may be because of the prac
ticability, but, then, it was not the
plain mannish suit that sold, but the
rather elaborately fur-trimmed one.
The coat and skirt idea is always
near to every woman's heart. No
wardrobe is at all complete without
a smart suit, or maybe two, but it
is a far cry from the ripple suit
of today, or rather tomorrow, to the
war workers' uniform.
One thing has resulted from it all
an appreciation of clothes and an
intense desire to dress up and look
one's prettiest. This fact, coupled
with the many occasions fof wear
ing good clothes, is making things
hum in shops where lovely evening
and afternoon frocks are created or
copied. "
Luxurious Evening Gowns.
It is an old story now to predict
gorgeous evening apparel, and yet
everywhere one turns it is the same
account of beautiful fabrics "and
jewels, shimmering metallic tissues,
rare laces and brocades that are
worth their weight in gold. What
all this is going to cost is apparently
quite incidental. The miser must be
made to spend his gold; indeed, will
probably do so gladly, since he will
receive so much beauty in return.
To illustrate, a dress might have
been worn by a sultan's favorite,
and yet it was taken from the stock
of a place no more romantic than a
department store. It is a remarkable
tge, this in which we live, when a
woman can attire herself in splendor
tuch as this at the expense of just
few hours' shopping and a "charge,
olease." The shopkeeper has the
worry of getting a collection to
gether, and the father or husband
tas the worry of recompensing him,
tnd the woman all the delight of
election and possession.
Velvet Gown on Oriental Lines.
It is not so very long ago that
such a gown would have had to be
either made or bought from a very
. high-priced importer or creator. De
partment stores now think nothing
of carrying a large stock of gowns
as elaborate as a certain model of
Oclamca pink chiffon velvet with
encrustations of pearl and crystal. It
has rather classic lines, the neck be
ing cut straight across the shoulder
in Roman toga fashion; the long
waist and curious girdle arrange
ment giving it quite an Oriental air.
The treatment of the edge of the
full skirt enhances this effect. One
encounters so many odd endings to
skirts nowadays. This one is
gathered and, as the skirt is velvet,
rather a heavy effect is produced.
The line has an upward tendency in
the front which may not appeal to
the average woman, although it is
considered very chic.
The festoon of pearls and crystals
which takes the place of a sleeve is
of decorative value as well as pro
viding a slight feeling of protection.
Many women require something to
break the line of the upper arm.
This the festoon arrangement does,
and in a manner quite in keeping
with the character of the dress.
Fairchild Fashion Service.
Doubts Her MotUier.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am 15 years and my fatther died
three months ago yesterday. I was
always abused, but my father al
ways sided with me. Now, siace
he is gone I am abused more than
ever.
,1 went to the show for two nights
now with our neighbor boy and
mamma doesn't like him, but she
never said anything until last night
she said if I ever went out with him
she wouldn't let me come in again.
I like him, but I don't love him.
What harm is there in going with
him if he behaves himself and acts
decent?
About three or four months ago
a boy moved across the street from
us and we soon learned to love each
other very much. He moved here
with a sister and brother and niece.
About three days ago he went
where he came from, but before he
left he wanted to kiss me, but I
wouldn't let him. Should I have let
him kiss me or was it all right not
to let him?
What should I do about the first,
as it is getting so I can hardly
stand It. Mother won't even get me
a $6 pair of shoes. Not only that,
but they all talk so horrid to me.
Sometimes they almost make me
believe I don't belong in this fam
ily, but I know better, because I am
the very picture of my sister.
LIGHT BLUE ETES.
It is impossible for me to tell
whether your idea of abuse is ex
aggerated or not. The probability
is that your mother loves you more
dearly than you realize and that
you are really a bona flde member
of the family. Calm yourself and
try to believe that your mother's
Judgment is the best for you to fol
low. When you are 18 or older, you
may be safe to trust your own
judgment, but a girl of 15 who
makes dates with one boy while she
boldly says she has been in love
with another, is not her own best
friend. Try being considerate of
your mother, confide in her, and
see how much she can help you with
your" problems.
'. Wedding Cards.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Would you be kind enough to an
swer the following few questions in
the Omaha Bee: I am to be mar
ried soon and, as my parents are
divorced, I was in doubt as to how
the announcements should read.
Would it be proper to say Mr. and
Mrs. announce the etc., or
would it bet better to leave the
parents out entirely? Should I have
invitations and announcements both
or just send a few announcements
early to those I wish to invite?
Trusting that this will appear in
the paper soon, I remain, sincerely,
PEGGY.
If you live with your mother the
announcement should bear her
name. If with your father, use his
name. If with aunt and uncle use
their name, viz: Mrs. John Doe an
nounces the engagement of her
daughter. The father's name may
be used in the same way. If uncle,
then use: "Mr. and Mrs. James
Gordon Smith announce the en
gagement of their neice. Invita
tions if you have a wedding, but for
a quiet marriage the announcement
is sufficient.

Silk poplins are used for many of the autumn's suits. They are
usually in light shades. This attractive suit has a smart belt coat, deep
reveres, fine tucks and buttons of self material. A vest of a contrasting
fabric is effectively introduced. Linen can be used for this suit and if
of dark colors would be entirely suitable for these fall days.
When You Are Idle
Remember, when you are out of
work that there is one job you can
always get, and that is working for
yourself, improving yourself. Knowl
edge is power; mental training of
every kind is power, and every bit
of useful knowledge is priceless. In
telligence always leads; ignorance
always is left behind.
' I have known of young men when
but of jobs really g earn more in
knowledge than their salaries when
they had jobs, by increasing their
earning power, improving them
selves in all sorts of ways; they
really got ahead faster when they
were out of work and looking for a
job than when they were working.
When you are dead-in-earnest you
can always find a job. If you can't
find one with some one else you can
always find a job with yourself, to
improve yourself, enlarge your men
tality, to store your mind with use
ful knowledge through good reading,
good books and observation. These
are all within easy reach.
I know of no job better thari the
self-improvement job, if you are
dead-in-earnest and are bound to
win, if you are determined to stand
for something in the world. The
New Success.
Miss Dorothy Sells, daughter of
Cato Sells, United States Commis
sioner of Indian education, is filling
the office of assistant state director
of industrial education in Texas.
Though Queen Mary is known to
have excessively simple tastes in all
matters relating k to her dress,
nevertheless her majesty's ward
robes are of necessity well filled.
The queen's gowns are kept in a
large robe-room adjoining her
majesty's bedroom. The walls of
this apartment are lined with large
mahogany wardrobes divided into
two sections, one of the state robes
worn on ceremonious occasions i.nd
the other for the queen's ordinary
dresses. -
The earliest college exclusively for
women was Mt. Holyoke, founded
in 1837. The system of co-education
in the United States began at Ober
lin college in 1833.
Queen Mary was always called
"Lu" by the members of the royal
family until she was 10 or 12, when
th pet name fell into disuse.
