WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1924 Fashion decrees the Sprightly Foot It seems a far cry to the days when shoes were just shoes, black, tall and uninteresting. This winter the mode is more particular than ever about our footwear fashions for with the short skirts the shoe is so much more noticeable and with the plain frocks it is almost as decorative an accessory as the necklace or the scarf. Still Strapped For a while it looked as though the plain pump were going to be most fashionable footwear for all occasions from morning to mid-afternoon. A modified version of the pump is worn with a tiny tongue ornamented with a buckle. Daytime Footwear For walking, the tailored dull leather slipper with a low heel is the smartest and quite the most suitable. Elaborate as our footwear may be, the well dressed woman always chooses it with an eye to suitability, and for walking the low heeled slipper is always more appropriate. However, it is often unusual with many straps and frequently irrimmed with a cut steel buckle are wearing a metal brocaded slipper you are certain that you are smartly shod. However, a very clever idea is to wear satin slippers dyed just the same shade or a little deeper than the frock they are to go with and with these satin slippers nude hose are worn. Hoslery Shades Except for sports wear, chiffon hoslery is the only kind worn by women, with discriminating taste.

Still Strapped For a while it looked as though the plain pump were going to be most fashionable footwear for all occasions from morning to midnight. But as though to make up for this slight infidelity we have returned to the cult of the strapped slipper with greater enthusiasm than ever. For even though we are wearing straps the buckle is as popular as ever. Cut steel buckles are used on the front of a plain slipper with tiny straps seeming to connect it to the cut sides. Daytime Footwear For walking, the tailored dull leather slipper with a low heel is the smartest and quite the most suitable. Elaborate as our footwear may be, the well dressed woman always chooses it with an eye to suitability, and for walking the low heeled slipper is always more appropriate. However, it is often unusual with many straps and frequently trimmed with a cut steel buckle. While lizard skin is very popular it is smarter in combination with other leathers than used alone. Of course, satin is as smart as ever. Some charming slippers are made of black velvet. For Evening In the evening the gold or silver brocaded slipper holds first place, especially with metallic cloth frocks or velvet. And if you smartly shod. However, a very clever idea is to wear satin slippers dyed just the same shade or a little deeper than the frock they are to go with and with these satin slippers nude hose are worn. Hosiery Shades Except for sports wear, chiffon hosiery is the only kind worn by women, with discriminating taste. For street wear there is a tendency to choose this hosiery in slightly darker shades than formerly. Such as tanbark or melon. But for afternoon the lighter shades of nude and French nude still predominate. Once in awhile wearing sheer black hose. But this is so seldom as to cause remark and it is only with an all black costume untouched with white or any color. THE S. Q. R.

Store Anaheim California KANSAS WOMAN TRAVELS MILES AFTER NOMINATION Miss Nellie Cline In 1912 Miss Cline felt the call of politics and entered the race. She was elected a member of the Kansas house of representatives by a large majority and in 1923 she was returned. Seasoned politicians agree that as a vote getter she is just about unbeatable, as can be seen from the fact that in the recent primaries she got practically every vote cast by those of her party and many votes from the opposition. In spite of her proficiency in these fields which are usually dominated by men, her friends assert that she is a model housekeeper and a good cook. She also knows the value of strategy since she served in the legislature at a time when her party was repre- It was the advertising manager in a big store who complained of the lengthy "copy" sent him by one of his buyers, for his ad. "He needn't include the history of the United States," he muttered as he heartlessly cut the copy to suitable size. It needs the "history of the United States" to cover the subject of fabrics. The high-power looms are so skillful, the designs are myriad, the combinations and uses are legend. In the fall one thinkr of silks and woolens, damasks and brocades that heavy linens rather than the lighter cotton fabrics that furnish inspiration for spring and summer decorating. Damask and brocade are terms which are used interchangeably by the trade. But there is a sort of general distinction that may be made. Damask—one thinks first of table linen naturally, has a patterned surface produced by wearing and is usually simple in pattern and in color scheme. Brocade often presents the appearance of embroidery, is more elaborate in design and is seldom reversible. When used for hangings it must always be lined. Taffeta is used in the form of sash curtains that may be drawn shut to supply the usual window shade. A painted valance board made a decorative finish at the top of the window with overdrapes of printed chinz hanging to the sill. Turquoise taffeta under curtains in a mauve and ivory room added a flash of distinctive coloring. A dining room of great dignity and charm used a sunfast damask for both portieres and overdrapes. A grey green made the ground while the pattern of roses color rambled over stripes. The portieres were hung from wooden rings on a pole covered with the same material. To assist in putting shut these drapes each curtain wore a tong cord ending in tassel, the cord suspended from the center of a medallion. The window curtains hung from a green painted valance board and were held back with paints wooden ovals. Cream figured mosaic curtains completed the "e" THE S. Q.

DOUGLAS Mixing Your Own ONLY a short time ago one of the bright, particular stars that beam on Broadway attracted attention by having a famous Parisian beauty specialist make a minute examination of her skin with a view to determining just what kind of face powder would be best suited to her complexion. We cannot all have powders specially made for our own use, but we can blend our own special variety. The vogue of mixing your own powders, in addition to being fashionable, is sound common sense artistically. There are so many different types of complexion, so many subtle adjustments of color harmony in hair, eyes, and skin, that it is really too much to expect that half a dozen shades of powder will turnish the perfect shade for every skin. It, for instance, you like the basic tone of rachel, but feel the need of a little more color in your powder, you can add a tiny bit of Peaches and Cream powder, or even a faint flush of pink. If neither naturelle nor rachel seems to match your skin, you can combine the two shades—and perhaps the result will be the perfect powder for you. However, even the perfect blend will not always be perfect. Your skin takes on color, or loses it, according to the clothes you wear, and the light you are under—so that your ideal blend of powder will often need to be lightened for evening, or brightened when you are wearing colors that require a rosier complexion. Therefore, you may work as an artist works, with your various boxes of different toned powders, blending them to suit the need.

Cream figured net curtains completed the "ensemble" with narrow fringe of the same color. Satin is much in use at present for upholstery for bedrooms and the like. On a chaise longue for instance, using a cheville fringe, it makes a softly inviting background for frilly lace cushions. A small living room used black satin to upholster its divan and deeply cushioned rocker. An outline of terra cotta fringe was the finish. In both divan and rocker great fat cushions spread themselves in dignified manner. These were covered with striped satin of terra cotta and black, temples and urns decorating the stripes. The severely classic lines thus reproduced were emphasized in the Roman stripe linen hangings at the windows. The wood work further carried out the color scheme in black with touches of terra cotta for decoration. An oyster white and black tile floor completed this interesting room with occasional rugs of black heavy pile. For decorating in a bedroom changeable taffeta continues its popularity. The better weaves of this material being sunfast it may be used to better advantage either at the windows, or as a bed spread or to cover a dressing table. Either lace or ruffles of the material seem best for decorating. A contrasting color is often seen in the ruffles. Ruffles remind us of hems. And hems remind us that we have but touched the hem of this subject—and left out most of the history of the United States. THE S. Q. R.
