' PAG2 CIGXTF s f s it i Or CORRECT DRESS FOR II TOLD Seven Different Occasions Outlined by -' Writer - Who is Expert First of all, the motive lor faU opening 1s an educational one, a movement to Instill, in the mind of the' average man a greater ap preciation tor correct dress, and to rereal in an attractive manner the newer innovations in the field of men's wear. Tn addition, correct dress for each occasion is being stressed in this opening season. There are seven major "occa sions" of dress in the average man's socUl and business life. They are: business wear, sports wear, traveling clothes, formal day wear, formal evening wear, informal day wear, informal eve ning wear ... all of these are probably not so ' frequently en countered in this westland, yet all men are becoming more and more conscious of correct attire for each "occasion." , Because there are standards of dross, it is a pleasure to possess a wardrobe fully equipped to meet every occasion, and every man should aspire to own such a ward robe. This idea does not necessarily urge larger wardrobes. But it does urge complete and well balanced wardrobes, which in . turn gives the wearer increased ' confidence, better poi?e and mental satisfaction. Clever Kitchenette Screes How many business girls and newly married couples are sigh ing for "Just a little more room" in the diminutive nook that serves a kitchen in the small apart ment? Such a screen is invalu- yiQ in the small apartment where the pulmanette or breakfast nook gives directly into the living room. EdwardsTells How Harmony Of Colors Must be Worked Into Good Program of Dress - BY CECIL L. EDWARDS ' ' TChat ttie male of the species loves color is no secret, In the animal and fowl world the male is the one whomakes the display the male of the civilized world of man has for some reason in times gone by reserved this love for color in his personal wardrobe to red flannels and bright ties with an oc casional vivid pink or green shirt, but this fall he has finally fallen for "the gayety that is woman's" in so far as his inti mate clothing in concerned. His pajamas speak for them selves, right out load brilliant stripes, and figures large enough to be worthy the shoulders of a six foot what the small man is to do with such huge figured "undies" is a ques tion which he should give some thought. Really, he would be wise to stay with the stripes and less boldly spoken patterns ; : 1 v as for underwear there are some lovely silks in pastel shades and there xare also cottons with excellent color and designs both In shorts, and in the one-piece style.

It is Just possible that the con servative man, of which civiliza tion and the Democratic party have developed such a vast num ber Judging from antique bedroom slippers and the tariff wiU not consider it becoming of man. to don the silk nnderwear and gay colors of cotton prints let it be suggested for such cs he " The old fashioned nightgown and cap and red flannels may have been becoming for the day of wood stoves and.drafty houses but tt was necessity, only which made them bearable- never : looks, and the truly iiritetagent man i of to day will attire himself in his pri vate life as thoughtfully and pain stakingly as he does in his bus iness and social hours, not only to increase his own self respect but to : maintain the respect of his family. SHORT HI F0H BOB Will billowing flounces and long traUing skirts to consider comes the temptation to curtail the coat for evening. A number of the ne wvelvet evening wraps and capes are shown in knee length, some with bandings clear around the garment edge, and others with huge shawl collars of fur and several tiers of self ma terial! used as pleated j bandings across the) back. Tfak materials which are greatest favorites for event wear are velvets, velyeteens, and lame. Regardless of th ematerial the wrapt are little more than to the knees la length if they reach that far. Many of the cap effects are like oblong pieces of material shaped a wee bit at either end. This is swung round the should ers and pulled in at the hip line. So with the coat effect, they are held snug about the hip line al lowing the many flounces of the present style evening dress to bil low from beneath the close caught hip line of the coat.

Sippet, president of the General Federa tion of Women's clubs. She has returned from a visit to Alaska. . This was the first visit there of a general federation president since Mrs. Percy V. Pennybaeker went to Alaska in 1914. "Distance and climate have pre vented a meeting of the federa tion' nays Mrs. Sippel. "Yet the women are accomplishing much. No group works harder for batter laws for women and. children. Alaska women seem more deeply concerned with the spiritual side' of life than we do. They are near to nature.

For some time past ties nave hen made in the broad, flashy stripes and vivid colorings so dear to the heart of the college youtn. SnnmtinM there lurks suspicion that the flash of college colors is the last remonstrance of the poor savage being scrapped by tae col lege educational process, but this fall and winter the color will Jbe far more dignified although there is plenty of it in soft, baxy -out lines. The lovely mingled atterni are as attractive as the colon and they are a great deal easier to wear. - There Is one type of tie that has been rather popular for tb past year which is not bein shown this year and which bv its absence will lend much to the at tractiveness of men's neck-wear this is the bow tie let it h hoped that they have gone with the women's side-combs. Aside from the continuance of the new slip-on model which an- peared for spring and is con tinued on for autumn there is no radical change in the styling of men's gloves for street or general wear. These slip-ons enjoyed a tremendous vogue during the pa.-i season. For fall they are made in chamois; for winter in pigskin. and It is predicted they will hart- equal popularity. There is the usual showing of conventional models in mocha and cape-skin which are fastened with button and buttonhole Instead of a snap or clasp. Light and dark gray and tans are the colors here For evening the glove is a one- button model of very light sued? and in color is a very light, soft shade of gray.
