However wrong In some respects may be the testators and other AtsyrIcan* who oppose the present plan* for the league of nations, they appear to have 1-oen right when they said the peace treaty should be devised and ratified fir*t and the matter of the lesgm- take* up later for final settlement. The two propositions are undoubtedly closely Interwoven and President Wilson may yet have Ills way and see them considered and adopted as one. but the opinion last week In Paris and elsewhere was that the peace treaty should be dosed up at once so that Its ratification maj not be delayed by the opiMmiiion to the league and the demands for amendments of Ihe present plan.

Born* of the Papular and Hirmeolxirtq Tinta That Are in the Umetight The trick I* ht knowing what color* combine. It Is not enoogh to know that such and rack a color carries fashion’s Immediate favor, but to know Just what color that color goes with to conform with tbe canon* of atnartneas. And really In designing yonr new frocks, if yon have settled tbe matter cf color combination, yon hare accomplished quit* a little. For color combinations that woo id be impo«*ible one season have, because they are stamped with tbe approval of aome groat dressmaker, or through aome assoclation of tbe tltne*. taken first place among combinations that are distinctly poarfh'.c. At tbe present time Paris has stamped with her approval combinations of metallic hne and almost any color on tbe calendar. Thus many of the smartest new ribbons show silver or gold threads running one way. with tbe colored threads running the other. These are used extensively In connection art(k the new evening frock*. Among tbe InteresUng ones are gold and brown, gold with a bright bins and stiver with emerald green, a ribbon would, of course, give the key to tbe color scheme of the evening frock on which It was used. Pale bine georgette over yellow !s a color combination seen In some of the newest lingerie. The effect Is a rather vague green. For the young woman with a complexion fair and clear such a color combination would have great charm In an evening frock. Henna may be on tbe wane, hut It | has attached same Interest to Itself j gown in which It is ird yellow. Now

Is violet and brick. Some shades of brown are used with a vivid red in some of the evening hat* In Ports, and. tbongb brown and red would to most persons eem to be a very unlovely combination, this carries the seal of fashionapproval. Cream and cerise are Interestingly combined In one of tbe n**w foulards, and this might suggest a color scheme for an afternoon frock of considerable distinction. P&rt.'cnlarly pleasing at all time* are combinations of two harmonizing shade* of the same color. They are never difficult aa are some of the more daring contrasting combinations. Paqnin used two shades of rose in marquisette recently with extremely effective result*.

SILHOUETTE IS HERE AGAIN Straight Garment, but Absence of th* Flying Panel* la a Spring Novelty Feature. Fashion bulletins of late have bad a rather bewildertug effect on tbe averrge style student, because regularly for che past three wasoo*. at least, the vogue of the straight line type of garment has been announced. Thinking ovet the subject casually, oue would. Imagine that there had been no style changes at all. But this la by no moans

true.

The straight silhouette has held away for some time. It is the keynote of present season apparel, and spring garments are adhering to It generally, bat minor notes toll tbe woman who pay* close nttentlon to style* whether a garment is of present or last son's vintage. It la interesting to observe tbe change that has taken place in Ihe use of panel*. Tbe loose or flying panel held the center of the Mage last spring and It a pi wared with some modification* In uiutcr garment*, but for Hiring the panel U snugly anrtiored. Panels do relieve the se\ority of tbe straight-line, narrow akin*, but the loosely flying janel aa* never a wise choice. Next Mason'* panels are caught at both upper and lower cud* and allow t-d to billow out in tbe space between.
