One-Piece Gown Is Still in Favor

I’crhu:** tin-re la no type of

willib has ever given more comfort and CL-iieral setiKfnrtlrn to women of all degresji than the one-ploce draaa. This, observes a prominent n-rre spondorit. is umloubtedly a trnlam and yet It cannot be dwelt uixio too often by Its beneficiaries for fear that If they do. not recognize their t leaaUc* | on some evil day the useful little oneI piece frock muy be ana'ched away

| from them.

! Fashion la proverbially a ficku deme. but after centuries of high j handed and caprlcous proceedings - with her votaries It was a merciful ! dlapcnsuilon on her part to decree l/ie reign of the one-piece frock at a time In the cITairs of women when life moved for them In a swift and almost overwhelming flood of public aad

■ private activities.

It wus. and It. a time In which a type of dresa was needed which redured nerve strain to the minimum I and which combined ease of adjustment, comfort, suu-rt and youthful ap- | pen ranee, nil a round wearablencas and I scfBcient variety. If such a thing | were poatlble in mi nneasy and imper | feet world, one would be Inclined to i aay that the one-piece frock would go i on forever, no nuttier what other ityies might eome and go. ITcdlctlona are unsafe and one only knows that at present this desliable type of garment rounds the cycle of the year in an cndl*-sa procession of models developed In fabrics suitable

| plaited frills. However, trimmings of various kinds are -rather promlncnMy In evidence In any inventory of the

charms of the 1020 blue serge frock. Embroidery on Two Wide Banda.

In one especially striking and handsome frock of navy bit-.- uabardlne the embroidery In ecru silk Is entirely concentrated oc two wide, loose bands of the falwic which extend from the aarrou girdle straight downward at each aide until they are fastened up | under the edge of the slim skirt. The straight bodice with long sleeves la cut In a deep square at the neck and filled in with a gathered tucker of cream batiste. At the back on either aide, where the embroidered oands meet the girdle, there are long aud

stately tawr-l* of ecru silk.

An inf cresting decoration from the peasant source Is In the form at oblong perforations of good size outlined with green silk. Lines of these perforations set on end run up and down on the blouse and r ntnd about the aklrt. Tbere are also narrow bands of embroidery which outline tap simulated eion coats of certain frocks, and Hoes of wool chain stitch embroiderer in n*se wool break the monotonous length of a blue serge chemise frock. Besides these tbere are frocks embroidered In navy blue

silk, with only an accent of color.

Ever Faithful Type Remains. The ever faithful and desirable frock of navy blue serge, poiret twill.

MISS TERRY

By MILDRED WHITE.

<Copyri*bt. l»». Wm.ro Co! Miss Terry put the. potatoes op bake, and went to Kptvail a sna luneh.-i.a cloth upon her moitir tr-y. Ever., day as the hands of I kitchen dock pointed to 11:30, Mb Terry did this very thing, the on ception being when the potatoes either boiled, or creamed. Ellen's f-ither had been a stern man. permitting no gr.yety or frivolity bis own domain. Ml»« Terry was treated with sped by the community, her unselfish devotion a by-word. For fear stopped to consider tbe weariness of her life's routine, or lingered to brighten its dullness. It was a vlsl.it) of years to come, like those which had passed In samene**. which came to Ellen n|M>n a certain morning as she put tin- Innrbeon doth on her mother's tray. A mange of some klod urns' be wrought. Liles thought desperately. and when she had placed the tray before the grateful Invalid. Elies took up Inst night's “Fam Herald" and au advertisement caught her eye. “Young woman teaching In Farmdglo Academy would like boo.d In quiet j home." she read. Then Ellen Terry I commlttetl the one daring act of^ier life. She answered the •drertisc- ! ment. Independently and withont consulting her mqther. then fearfully awaited reply. The answer came la person Miss Betty Blair of Boston, presented herself for upproral. and wa* apparently delighted prer the prospect of her new bo-riling place. A new world opened to Miss Terry within the shelter of her ntHt little home. Betty's presence seemed to fill each corner with new and Joyous Iptei-cst. The lei ter* which she brought fcac'i from the Utile po« offlee and ahnred confidingly with Ellen, were an interest In Uxunaelvea. “Was there never ope that you cared about? Never, really, dear?' Ellen had shaken her head vigorously. but after awhile, when the griddle cake* were care fully turned, she bad sab] apropos of nothing: “Do you ever talk to Dan Wise, the postmaster. Betty? Dan's, a real pleasanj man. His wife died two years ago. He went off away from hare when he was ran Tied and only Just got back after rtbe'd died." Betty flashed a glance from I rt bright eyes. “Yon knew him year* ago?" she asked. “Before he was married?" Ellen • nodded. “We used lo go to •choc! together." "He often asks for you." Betty said. "When I go for the mail. Ubw's Miss Terry today,' he'll say. 'sad how's be - .inoUtarT " The little teach-r smiled as she bent over tbe cakes, iben as suddenly •be sighed. “The time has just flown since I've been with you. dearie Ellen." she aald. “I’m almost sorry to go back to Bos-

ton.'

When Hie girl had gone. It was El len wHo was sorry. Sorry with a loneliness which sent her often to the post office hoping that Betty might hare written. Betty did write; pages and pages, a cheery record of her own doings “ilioush* lots of you." !>!c Dan Wise told Ellen. "Always talking 'bout bow fine you were. Somebody else thinks of you. too. It seems,” by added curiously, and handed to KlLtt m second letter. A pink gl<Sw of Burp’ise effused her face now ns she received the unusunl missive. At home again in tbe kitchen, site sat staring at a manly scrawl across an inclosed rose-bedeektsl card. “You have won a true friend,” ahe rend simply. - “ ^ The mysterious message Ha* but the beginning of tunny. More frequent I than even Betty'* chatty comnranira- ] tfoni. Brief were these messages, but bespeakln2 always deep admiration, true friendship. N'o name was signed to tbe manly ImnduTltlng. Each time that big Dan passed one of these en- • velope* through tbe post office window his keen eyes searched Ellen Terry's face, and Ellen becomingly, but guiltily, blushed. “Beckon." Dan said laughingly one day. “you've got a faithful friend down there In New York. You mlg't tell us about him. Ellen. Leastwise you might tell nn old friend—like me. John Towne, his name Is. 1 see; It's on i he outside o' 'his envelope." Ellen »oo^ the lotler and hurried toward the door. From there she threw back at big Dan. an unaccustomed smile. “Mebbe sometime I will ten you. tf you come over. Dan." she said, then stood abashed r.t her daring. "Be over tonight.” Dan answered promptly. Ellen could scarcely concentrate her mind 0*1 the letter, hnt Hu- realization presently came to her that this John Towne of New York, writer of her admiring missive*, was the betrothed lover of Betty Blair. He wrote now to announce this fact- And not only gratitude had piompted John Towr.e s avowal* of friendship lai Mis* Terry. Betty herself, he said, had •>- lected the cards. And some short time later when Betty received a marked notice In a Fa no dale paper, rhe smiled d -wn Into her lover's eye*, as she read; "Miss Ki'en Terry, married last eveting to Mr. Daniel Wise." “You sec.' remarked the frivol ••as llttlv teacher, “Tfca*e mi~ires of your'*. John, did make big Dan «lt up and take notice."
