For crepes, in their various weaves, remain unrivaled and so far, even unchallenged. Every where In afternoon and evening gather ings they predominate, making a pleas ant color harmony In shades of blue, beige, gray, green, rust and brown, with black Interspersed rather plenti fully among them. No fabric is better adapted to the demands of the matron who looks for long and graceful lines and Is devoted to clever and original Ideas In designing. A gown that will score a success on every one at these requirements ap pears In the handsome model pictured. It ip made of French gray crepe and, except for gray beads, the material la sufficient unto Itself In Interpreting the present mode superbly. Narrow folds of the crepe, dotted with beads, are simple ns can be, but they contrive an ?????immimimmmmmimimiimimiiiii original and beautiful adornment. Bet In between two wider felda they form the girdle. This gown may be worn over a sheer, lace-trimmed slip (short er In length) In flesh color, or In white posed over a light pink undersllp. Beaded trimmings, used with fine re straint, fringes and trimmings made of the material, characterize these crept gowns. They obey the dictates of fakhton gracefully, with skirts ankle length and low waist lines. But the uneven hem line and such transparent devices as appear In the gown pictured, tJetray that the shorter skirt Is held In fond remembrance. Sleeves are endlessly varied, neck lines fairly high, all conspiring te please the woman who has learned to value distinction. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINIIIIIIIIIIII LINGERIE IS LESS TRIMMED BUT IS MORE COLORFUL UHiiiiiimiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinifiiiiiiiiHiiiiiiuiniiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii THERE lg considerable news in the realm of underwear. It concerns chiefly the adoption of many colors in place of white and consequent ' changes in the matter of decorations. Little by little white has given way ? before the encroachment of light tones of color, until colored underthlngs ap pear to outnumber the white gaT ( ments. As the attention of designers Is focused on color, it turns away from familiar types of trimmings, to 1 new ones. Introducing color contrasts, , and we have lingerie that is less , trimmed and more tailored in style, . but nevertheless pretty and practical. . Color will never usurp the place of fine hand made and hand decorated under ? garments on which much expert 1 needlework has been lavished; It is - without peer in refinement and beauty, t The closest rival of this fine, white . lingerie in sheer cottons. Is flesh . colored, and made of crepe de chine, and the two pretty garments shown V here vindicate Its right to a place in ' the bride's trousseau. There is nothing - unusual about them and the picture i, tells the story. For those who would r Uke* to add some up-to-the-minute ? pieces to their collection, tailored t styles in pongee, trimmed with bor ders of colored silk er embroidered in ? targe dots In different colors of silk are suggested. Envelope chemise In pongee, with a band an Inch wide In lavender or other color of crepe de chine about the top, has shoulder straps to match made up of a fold of the crepe, and the step-in drawers are bordered in the same way. Pretty and simple night dresses are made of cross bar dimity or batiste, showing a bar In color on a white ground. They are cut with square neck and short sleeves and narrow, wash ribbon. In the color of the cross bar, Is applied In rows or lattice de sign about the neck and sleeves. Pllsse crepe Is shown In many colors, as pink, orchid, yellow, bine, light green, lavender, and Is especially liked for night dresses and pajamas. Hemstitch ing and shirrlngs done In colored threads, make the simplest decora tions for garments of colored batiste. Several colors are combined In this way, as In a lavender chemise shirred at the neck line with three rows of shirrlngs, using rose, blue, and pale green threads. ' jsL RICHARD THEATRE, Ahoskie, N.
