SATURDAY FEBRUARY 6, 1915. LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER page Tirrr.n.f War Has Scared Paris Society Chiefs Uo Be Rational in Attire This Year Saad and Putty-colored Waists Are Quit the Thief, and Sprlt Meases Shew Addition of High Colter. Crepe de Chine and Lace Combined in a Gown With Waist in Bolero Effect ' New York, Feb. 6. It is said that Berlin has been much the same during the war as at other times, excepting for the war spirit, and the grief at the bulletin boards. It has been the kaiser's wish that things should be .as unaffected as possible, and, as he .is well beloved, as well as feared, the people, especially the 'women, havo shown thir grief but little. 1 . In Paris the fear of invasion was sreat, and immediately things were closed ' no lights were allowed, the cafes coi-d not be open, the theaters were shut down, and a curfew told Dtople that their lights must be out. Iv was natural that this should affect business, but now things have chang ed and are taking on a much more normal outlook. . The dressmaking houses which have kept open are doing business, with the United States at least, and Kodier, the great manufacturer of fabrics reports that he is furnishing mater ials to the Callot Sisters,- Cheruit, Premet and Beer. '!.'.',: ; r The theaters are opening and many . are crowded, but not by the fashion able audience that one would expert under different circumstances. The women of Paris are avoiding the ex tremes which have always been their hobby in style. The very tight skirt has been discarded, but the very fuU skirt, which was thought would be this time be the Parisian style of the moment, 'has not as yet been fully ac cepted. However, the gowns wnitn were worn by the actresses had cer tain elements worth remembering. . A dress of black velvet, which wan worn by a French actress, had long, tight-fitting sleeves and a square, low i:eck, with a Medici collar in the back. The skirt was full and drawn in around the bottom. A length of the velvet was draped over the hips and ended in a train. The entire gown was de void of trimming, which gave a rich ness that no amount of embellishment could have aided.' : ' , Long sleeves are to be seen on all gowns. I asked a prominent New York dressmaker not long ago if she would make long sleeves for summer, (Aid the replied:- 'I most certainly will un less .my customer insists otherwise." A charming afternoon-dress is pic tured herewith which shows somewhat the bolero effect, together with the long sleeves, which are most striking features of the present styles. The waist is made with an underwaist of crepe de Chine with the bolero effect hi wide lace. The sleeves of this out er waist are short and of the lace, while long net sleeves extend to tho wrist. The skirt of crepe de Chine is J shirred several times at the waist and hips, and is finished at the top with a frill of itself. Three graduated tands of net are the only trimming on the skirt. r This is a frock which may be worn again and again, as its long sleeves and high collar give it1 a distinctly day-time air, while the material makes it elaborate enough for many evening functions. The separate waist takes on differ ent features with the changing of the season, and there is no end to the numerous models, although they all . $h With a Separate Skirt of Blue Gabar dine, is Worn a Waist of Sand :- Colored Net. bear a resemblance one with' the other. This season the high collar has been the newest note in these waists. '. A few good models have : been made the high collar, but it is much harder to ' achieve than the waist with the round, wedge, or rolling collars. ; . Some of the waists are made with' a V neck and a high collar above it, leaving a little of the neck or. cheBt exposed, f , This is runique, but gives such a look of something left out, un finished that" it is scarcely popular. Others are made with a straight band around the neck ' below it. The best of the high-necked waists button straight up the front, from the waist line to top of the collar. A stunning waist which I saw not long ago was made with the collar in one with the body of ' the waist, the shoulder seam extending into the side seam of tho collar." This collar wrinkles around the neck charmingly and was held from working down into a string around the neck by bones at the back and sides of the collar. ; It dries not seem possible that these high-collared blouse and frocks will altogether supersede the low collars which -we have been wearing for so long'. The women have felt the com fort of doing; without anything about the throat,- the necks have revived from the old tiht collars and bocome more beautiful, and it does not seem as though the' could consent to the wearing them on -everything again. -There is no way to tell just what the lingerie waist of the summer will become. There- is said to be a revival of the old ''but'-m-in-the-ba .k" waists trimmings of bt aid and buttons, in military effect in the front. - Dainty voile waists are shown, some pin-tucked and others of the plain material trimmed with washable cord of braid and '.ittl-j soft crochet but- tent, and with a dainty collar which sit-lid j high in. the back, buy docs not ke-.p the front o (he neck from bring fiee and open to hi air. Overblouse and coatee effects are vo j popular jr,a will no doubt be Ubed, especial1- for the very dvess waists. ' ; -. , :- '.. The chiffon o cl it ff;n cloth blouse putty, sand, or biscuit colors are very smart and very practical this winter. They are made with high collars and usually button straight up the front with smail silk-covered buttons. The waist of crepe de Chine is also very large reverse which fall gracefully in the front. In an illustration I show' a new blouse, collarless, with the neck iu in the new Callot square, which is most becoming and far less tryinr than the usual square or Dutch neck. The model is developed in craquele net and untrimmed, except for a cord outlining the neck. The skirt worn with this wai3t is an excellent one for the separate skirt, as it is made with a yoke and front in one and pleats at the side, causing the skirt to flare in the up-to-date mannei at the sides. .

"-.-l DE LUXE SIX-REEL JOURNEY THROUGH HABITAT OF FUN. ; "TUbe's Punctured Romance," Big ' feat Scream of Year, Coming, i Muck Sennett. the brillirnt producer of Keystone comedies, has designs on tho resibihties of the nation. He has decided that people want to laugh, which is not such1 an original deduc tion in itself, but the Sennett appli cation of it is rather revolutionary. The Keystone director, having observ ed how successful his one-reel and two reel comedies are all over the country, decided to serve his comedy in a larg er dose. The result is "Time's punc tured Romance" a six ml parcel of merriment, which will be projected fit the Arcade on Feb, 29 and BTth. " Marie Dressier, of "Tiitie's Night mare" fame, is the star of this de luxe six-reel journey through the ha bitat of fun. Charlie Chanlm and Ma- ble NorZSand are two Pf her associate smile-dispensers, and the rest of the Keystone folk are consoicuously in evidence. Ghapfln and Miss Nonnnnd need no introduction to film followers. Miss Normand - radiates charm and Chaplin is the funniest person of male persuasion that the screen has vet dis closed. Miss Dressier is as runny in her way as Chaplin is in his.. She fits into the Keystone scheme of things nicely, but there is more than horseplay- in her performance. Her expressions are all that are needed to convey to the au dience the course of Tillie's fluctuat ing emotions during the course of the romance. The action of "Time's Punctured Ro mance" is dotted with typical Key stone touches, and there is the usual whirlwind Keystone finish at the end, only this is just a little more of a whirlewind than the usual finish ever pretended to be. It almost becomes a riot and certainly inspires the most riotous of laughter. . Am automobile is run off a dock and the police dart reck- mamy nere ana were in motor uoai Tilfie is nearly drowned and pandemo nium is on tap for a few minutes. "Don't miss "Tillie's , Busted Ro mance says one critic, "unless you object to laughing yourself into a jel ly."
