Bj HORTENSE SAUNDERS ' (KEA Service "Writer) VEW YORK, May 0. "The en irmbls costume has passed the tijxrimental stage and has become lie leading influence in style," Henri Bodel, New York's famous creator ef women's styles, says. Tbecostume idea prevails through- oat the mode and has regoJed to Kcoodary importance the separate (rock and the coat that does general Jcty. This is ro line with the genernl dtfince and harmony women have tittered. It is likewise distinctly feminine and consistent with the mod in costuming which places im- portance on the completed product. including the accesories, rather than do one distinct feature such as the foirn or wrap. For Summer Wear "The summer costume for morning ud tfternoon is the ensemble. For aiming there is the frock of printed liik, or possibly plain crepe do chine vita a light wool wrap lined with the naterial of the frock, and for after- 1 there are the ensembles of silk ind crepe de chine or chiffon." Typical of the summer ensemble the taupe chiffon model pictured with this article. Tho coat ties in front with a collar that is really a scarf and may bo worn in a number of ways. The dress is on simple, but subtly molded lines with a self yoke and pin tucks at the side. "Though of chiffon, the coat is un lined, but is as carefully tailored as a heavier material might be." Mr. Bendel remarked. "This is the type of garment we may expect to see at all the smart summer reBorts and it will bo proper for informal dinner wear as well as the tea dnnsent and all social affairs." Another distinctive model iB the graceful coat, slightly suggestive of Japanese lines, made of magenta wool kasha lined with Crepe Elizabeth of the same color, which material also makes the long waisted frock. The dress has flowing sleeves of tan with a bit of embroidery. Though tho other model has much fur at the collar and hem, it is sleeve less but the dress has long sleeves which serve for dress and coat. This is of gray crepe romain, with gray wolf. Fragile but Practical "At first glance these costumes seem impractical because of the fra gility of tho material," Mr. Bendel said. "It is a distinct innovation to use chiffon and crepes for coats. And yet these wraps give just the protection that is needed in midsum mer, and they complete the costume in the most effective manner. "It has always been a problem to make smart the sheer frock, which is necessary for comfort in summer. The ordinary wrap ruined the effect, and to the conservative woman, a wrap is always a necessity. This sea son one may be both comfortable and extremely smart. "The lme of the ensemble is of the greatest importance. No matter how much fullness and freedom is allowed by skillful cutting, the effect is that of slenderncss and long, elegant lines. "In colors, beige, in the new pink ish shades, and grays are probably the most popular, but the shades of red, blue nnd brown are also used for these ensembles. "If the costume is of decided color, the hat usually mntches it exactly. With the neutral-toned costume, the hat is often of brilliant color accentu ating the costume. "While skirts in general are short, the length of the skirt should be de termined by the stature of the wearer. "The ensemble must achieve har mony of line, color and design. If it fails in any of these details, it fails utterly." pretending to have a good time when they were bored to tearal And they are just as ready to read with some "bookish" fellow when he cornea courting. Or to dance till dawn with the "sheik" type of wooer. A girl will do almost anything preteud almost anything, to gain the admiration of the particular man she happens to have sec her heart upon. But it's one thing for ber to make herself charming and agreeable to everyone of ber men friends . . . and quite another when marrying time comes 'round. For a happy marriage cannot be founded on camouflage. It a girl has pretended to be interested in books because she was in love with a liter ary man, marriage is sure to "show her up." For it has a way of stripp ing all of us of our poses and pre tences. You cannot pretend to be something you are not oti5 days in the year. The cleverest thing a girl can do is not to try to make herself over to suit some man or other. What she wants to do is to look him over to see if he measures up to what she desires in a husband. If two people have a single taste in common, even if it's only a liking for cards or movies they have a , chance of happiness together.- But if the husband is a comfortable "low brow" sort of person with a hankering for loud ties and Sunday golf, while his spouse harbors a pas sion for Friday musicales and Ibsen drama clubs, what chance have they of ever being pals? . . . They don't even talk the same language. The only fair thing for a woman in love to do is to be perfectly honest about herself. Sh would be dreadfully upset if her finance falsely told her he had a million dollars and a country place on the Hudson. She would think him deceitful, to say the least. And it's just as deceitful for her to give a man the impression that , she'd not only a beauty, but a wit, a prire housekeeper and a wonderful cook, unless she is. But how many ' cirls do it! Then after marriage, tney rest on their oars, and their wedded career goes on the rocks. llubby finds out that not his Blush ing Bride, but her Capable Mother prepared the Sunday night suppers, to which he was bo often invited in the Old Home. He discovers that she cannot cook at all! He finds out that his wife's culture is no deeper than the color on her cheeks, and rubs off quite as readily! Then comes Disillusion. Ana u s not a little thing. It sends more conn lea to the divorco courts every year than any other ono thing in the world !

"Most women just wait for things to come to them instead of going out after them. They want men to hand them what they lack the initiative to get for themselves. "If we could organize (he women of South America for suffrage, wo could have it easily and we will have it soon but we are being held back by tho indifference of women rather than men. Though South America has been slower than United States in granting political rights, Miss Lutz pointed out that much progress has been made there by the women who have wanted to achieve. All professions in Brazil are open to women. "We not only have women doctors and lawyers, but engineers, chemists and aviators," she said proudly. "All our universities have always been open to women. But in business women are given only subordinate positions and the pay in considerably less than it is for men. Tbero are many women in industry, mostly in textiles, but in all the workshops wo men are underpaid and the general conditions are very bad. With suf frage and women's co-operation we could have protective legislation for women and much greater industrial opportunities." Miss Lutz herself Is prominent professionally. She is secretary of the national museum 'of Brazil and hus drne much medical resesrch work for the laboratory of the Bra zilian government.

And there are jmt as many things that are "no fair" in the all-abtorb-ing business of love. K'r instance there are girls who will deliberately pretend to be inter ested in a man's bobbies, simply be cause they think that it is a good way to interest the man, bime!f.
