V In recent times the changes in fashions have been so slight and so gradual that we were scarcely conscious of them. Innovations are brought about gradually. This method Is Infinitely better than the old-time one ot causing an upheaval which meant forcing styles so startling that none but the extremist adopted them. We have been talking of longer UneS in dress for so long a time that the subject seems a very old one. But the lengthened lines we talked and wrote about two years ago are short in comparison with those of today. Last winter no dressmaker placed the waistline as low down on the hips as it Is now. Then there is the skirt, the hem of which almost touches the ground, doing its part in producing a longer and slimmer effect. These skirts are better suited to evening dresses than to any other costumes. Loess Modsls for Unesrsstsd Flgur* French gowns are of the long, straight sort This l» the type of evening dress most In use. While there are many models with tight bodices and full skirts they are In the minority. The appeal of the picturesque, which the latter possess. Is not strong U. S. LEADERS 4AUD TREATY • vvany more than she wsnts to revert to any phase of life peculiar to those days. 1 If we realized how closely dress Is and always has been connected with history we would be more successful with it and would desist from all at- i . . . . . . _ _ tempts to march It into any other than I ISSUES * ft STATEMENT the natural channels. ,UUWLtt " Action of Dai! Eireann Please^ Senators and Congressmen ::r.*' .'it Washingtftit ~' g.1;1 An Interesting Model of Black Chlffoif and Jet. enough to compete successfully with Its long graceful skirt and Its simple bodice hanging loosely from the shoulders and blouslng around the hips. One reason why the evening dress with tight-flttlng bodice and full skirt Is not eagerly accepted Is because It Is not suited to the uncorseted figure. The loose, and In some cases rather untidy appearing dress, Is In accord with present-day fashions, keeping pace as It does with progress and with the emancipation of women in dress as in other lines. No woman wants to return to Civil war times In her dress Deeolletage Becomes More Modsift. Evening gowns, except for the most formal occasions, are less decollete ^hls year. Some have draped skirts, the foundation skirt being about seven inches from the floor, while the various ways of hanging panels, points and drapery from the low waistline to several Inches below the skirt, give a most fascinating line. In evening dresses Jenny features flowing side panels which are a continuation of the sleeve. She introduces an ingenious effect by arranging the panel on one side of the dress so that it falls from the front of. the sleeve and that on the other from the back. She further accentuates this reverse treatment by making the panels of a contrasting material. Two wedding dresses from this maker, one In whltp satin and another in silver lace, show Interesting and novel trains which are a continuation of panels. Fabrics are sumptuous and colors are brilliant. An abundance of sheer sHrer tissue Is used for scarfs trains, as well as tissues of gold and silver shot with beautiful colors, notably red and violet huek Metal brocades, soft velvets and satins, and beautifully patterned silks are used profusely. Several models exploit lace In various ways. Drecoll makes beautiful lace dresses of s very stately type cut on the Italian Renaissance lines. Especially lovely are those combining silver and black lace. Many dressmakers of Importance still favor black, but the pendulum Is swinging rapidly toward bright colors. A number of white crepe dresses are veiled with black lace. Frequently a black and white dress, or the all black or all white costume, has a girdle of brlght-hued flowers placed about the hips. In evening toilettes the dress with wrap to match Is Important Velvet gowns In high colors have matching coats or capes. Japanese effects are introduced in several of the evening dresses with sccompanylng wraps, many of them worked out in black and gold brocade. Novelties of this season are the evening dresses of duvetyn In high colors. These should prove successful for the half-ceremonious restaurant or Informal dinner-dress. •» « ...

The long acarf attached to the shoulders and again to the wrists by a novelty bracelet IS et a very sheer silver cloth. Brick* red satin and stiver are strikingly combined In a Charlotte model. The satin is interwoven with silver threads. An underskirt of silver lace hangs several Inches longer than the dress. A band of satin embroidered In silver encircles the hips and extends down the front. A ragged appearance is given to the bottom by the silver petticoat hanging below the skirt, the embroidered band longer than the petticoat and. panels at either side trailing on the floor. Polnsettla reds, fuchsia shades, notably mauves, are pleasingly combined with silver to make some of the best of this winter's models. A mauve crepe frock Is trimmed with clusters of sliver grapes. Ornamented With Lace and Flowers Mine. Jenny created a d""< s«5i'd sensation by her frocks in fuchsia colorings shading from pinkish mauve to the deepest fuchsia blue. These are of silk, trimmed with metal lace and flowers, each one having a matching wrap of velvet with a big ruch collar made of flowers. They are charming from the color standpoint. A few brown and beige tones make their appearance In the evening. Martial et Armand have a model caUed Alcribade developed in beige satin with an apron tunic and scarf sleeves of lace In matching shade. The tunic Is mounted in a novel way to a girdle of brown velvet placed low on the hips and Is arranged so that the dress may be worn without the apron, An Interesting model from Jean Patou, called Conchlta, Is developed In a novelty printed silk. At the sides are long panels of Ivory lace. Rows of tvorv Insertion trim the lower half of the skirt. At each side, heading the lace panels, is a huge artificial rose of red silk. Picturesque Shoe of Colonial Days. If one is of the picturesque type and has a taste for the picturesque in dress, it is (iiflicult to reckon shoe buckles among the non-essentials for they are essential to the completion of the most picturesque shoe that ever has been worn. The Colonial shoe with Its huge buckle has returned. Extremely effective are the large velvet tongues in either brown or black that serve as a support for buckles that may be either square or oval. Frequently brown velvet tongues are used on black shoes. Hatpins have been nbsent from fash- Ions for so long a time that it Is pleasing to see pin cushions on dressing tables of fashionably dressed women, bristling with pins of Jade, Jet and glistening stones. They may have long dangling {>endant.s or be In ring or oval form to match earrings. " Jewelers have had their eyes on the length of sleeves for the last year and a half to ascertain whether or not the bracelet will continue Its prosperous way. Apparently the advent of the long sleeves has not had the effect on the use of bracelets that was expected, for although many Jong sleeves are worn the vogue for the bracelet Is undiminished. VELVET IS A STRONG FAVORITE Material Especially Popular for Afternoon Gowns; No Fabric Mors ; ." Generally Satisfying. Velvet dresses for afternoon are, tfc usual, among the greatest of favorites. And they have been developed In every possible way, from the very simplest ones without one vestige of trimming to those which are delicately adorned with expensive and brilliant embroideries and headings. A model, which Illustrates the latest type of velvet dress produced during the midseason Is destined chiefly for afternoon wear and trimmed with a most interesting arrangement of silver and black embroidery on a background of velvet in a taupe shade that has lavender lights • concealed In the mystery of its coloring. This froe|k Is only an example of tlie many afternoon gowns which are being developed from velvet, In different tones and with different trlmmlnsg.

H).--Deep gratification was expressed in all official circles here when news reached Washington that the age-old struggle between England and Ireland had been ended by^ the Dail Elreunn'g ratification of the free state treaty. Members of congress who have sponsored resolutions seeking recognition of Irish independence by the Unltp ed States were especially pleased with the outcome. A White House statement may be Issued later, it was stated in official circles. Meanwhile Senator New of Indiana, generally regarded as spokesman for the President In the senate, said: "The news Is gratifying. It is to be hoped the ratification is a real set' tiement of an age-long controversy ^hich has troubled America only in a lesser degree than It has troubled Great Britain. Our sympathies are now, as they ever have been, with the Irish, and it is hoped signing of the treaty will give the people of the new state tlie degree of autonomy to which they have aspired." "I am very much gratified," Senator France of Maryland said, "over news the Irish Dail has ratified the peace treaty with Great Britain. We may look to the re-establishment of peace and a friendly relationship between the Irish and English peoples. The news should be gratifying to all the friends of Ireland in the United States who have worked for Irish freedom. The establishment of the Irish Free State is a recognition of demands of ths Irish for self-determination In their own affairs." "I sincerely hope," Senator Borah said, "this action wlil prove to be the best thing for Ireland. My Impression, however, Is that the Irish people never will be satisfied until they get complete Independence. The thing I most desire Is the relief of the Irish people themselves, and if this works for their welfare I shall be very happy Indeed." Senator Norrls of Nebraska, member of the Irish-American "committee and active in urging the senate to s^cognize the Irish republic by resolution, said: "If the Irish are satisfied, I am, too." "I am very glad to hear It," Senator, Hitchcock of Nebraska said, "on account of Ireland, on account of England and on account of international co-operation generally. This will. In the main, satisfy IHsb sentiment in the United States and remaove one of the obstacles In the way of International co-operation. I think It is a splendid *outcome of the long fight Ireland has made for self-goverflment, and I am very glad of It." Senator Curtis of Kansas, Republican whip of the senate, said: "I am very glad of It I hope it will settle the Irish difficulties." "It was a step In the right direction," asserted Senator Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona. "The Irish people always have demonstrated a superb quality of statesmanship In their leaders. Mr. I>e Valeru is a conscientious patriot and made a gallant contest." Representative Bourke Cockran, Democrat, New York, commented: "It Is one of the greatest events In history. I have no (^prehensions about divisions the Irish people have taken preceding ratification of the treaty. Nothing good ever yet was done unanimously. The good feeling and moderation that has governed the debate of the treaty Is triumphant evidence the discussions will be utilised for good of the Irish nation." "I am glad," said Senator Lodg«, chairman of the foreign relations committee. "It should be entirely satisfactory both to the people of Ireland and to England, and it is a great step toward peace and amity." 1 WARNING I Say "Bayer" when you buy Aspirin.
