TUESDAY, FEBRUARY i, 1021 THE HEPPNER HERALD, HEPPNER. OREGON PAGE THREE 0 Q O o BLOUSE IS USEFUL Costume Garment Most Woefully Abused, Writer Declares. Prominent Part of Outfit Seldom Worn Properly So That It Looks Entirely Right. One of the most useful garments under the sun is the costume blouse, and one of the most woefully abused, says a fashion correspondent. Do you ften see it worn properly? Few are it times when it looks entirely right 'of the same family as the rest of the costume of which it has become a part. It will be a dreadful blow to some women to be told that the costume blouse is not really smart when it is worn with a suit skirt. It is all right when the coat is buttoned in place, but when that outer covering is re moved, how different ! This costume blouse lias its place, to he sure, but it is uot with flip tailored or even the semi-tailored suit, There only the .tailored blouse or the wft, hand-made French blouse has a rightful place and ii sufficient reason to call Itself a mrt of til,? whole. ' There is the blouse made of an all over brocade or of an all-over piece of embroidery. It is one of the haud jniest that has been produced in this most prolillc season, and it is apt to he made over quite plain (inc.l simple ;nes, with no added trimming. It mies In the most beautiful and rich colors, and It should most properly he worn with a skirt that is low in tone, soft in texture and full enough in width to make- it a graceful founda tion fur the brilliance of Ihe waist. There is no question that the blouse type of frock is one of the most eco nomical of the varieties of costuming All-Over Pattern in Costume Blouse. that can be gained by the aid of one simple skirt. But that Is no reason, surely, why the thing should be done badly and why the wrong blouse should be combined with the wrong skirt. The blouse, In other words, should be used to the full value of its design and should never be allowed to be that thing which is just thrown on to make something thut "will do." CARE OF HAIR IS IMPORTANT Avoid Drying Quickly With Artificial Heat: Good Soap. Brush and ( Comb Nc::scary. To prevent the hair from splitting, here are a few things to remember, says the Woman's Home Companion. Avoid drying the hair quickly with artificial heat. Don't use hot curling irons too often. Consider carefully what soap you use. Never use one with drying qualities. See that your hair brush Is in good condition. Worn bristles and combs with broken teeth are one cause of split hairs. The best brush to use, whether your hair is dry, oily or normal, is one not al ways so easy to get. It has the bris tles arranged in hutches, with the middle bristles the longest. Don't brush your hair while It Is damp, and don't use too soft a brush. For gen eral use, have a brush with moderately Stiff bristles. To give luster to the hair a soft brush Is all right, but for daily cleansing use avoid it. . Pressing Tucks. To press tucks so they may look decorative and not have the usual flattened appearance, stand the Iron up on end and run the tucks over the Iron, holding the material firmly be tween the hands with the tucks run ning downward. In this way the material between and beneath the tucks will be pressed as well as the tucks. An Attractive Fur Collar. The high collar of double furs Is a novel idea for wrap coats. For In stance, the collar Itaelf may be made of squirrel, and the lining Imitation ermine. Wide cuffs to match should be turned back on the sleeves. These collar are large and plctoresque. They ran b muffled np round the face or laid fiat on the shoulders Uka a cape. ADD BIT OF COLOR Brilliance Plays Important Part in Small Accessories. Wardrobe Should Include Articles That Can Be Changed at Compara tively Little Expense. A great many tragedies are sure to follow in a season where color in dress Is as riotous as it is- this year, asserts a fashion writer in the Philadelphia Record. Temptations to buy the henna velours with the silver gray trimming, instead of the more sensible navy trico tine will lead many women to rue an impulsive choice. One is going to get very tired of the paprika-colored top coat and the jade evening gown, ex cept where the wardrobe Is so exten sive that one has plenty of changes. l?ut aren't the colons beautiful? And you can give way to these color longings, too, if you are wise and do It in the small accessories of the ward robe, where they can be easily changed at comparatively little expense. A navy tricotine chemise dress, just for in stance, can be made to do duty for two entirely different dresses if a change of girdles and vests Is provided. Girdles were never more colorful or unique. They can be the striking note of a plain frock. Let's suppose you have chosen a very plain navy dress on the simplest kind of lines. You can choose to wear with It one of the wampum girdles of leather patches strung to gether with heads, and showing bead and straw embroidery. These are very modish and can be bought or copied at home, 'j'here are some other new leather girdles of bright rod. blue or purple, slashed and threaded witli iri descent beads, and having long bead fringes. These, combined with a vestee to match, can make the navy frock al most "loud," at least they will brighten it up to better advantage than a lot of tinsel or bead embroidery thai could, not be changed. There are jade galallth girdles, suetla belts, stitched In brilliant colors! bright striped cotton braids, trimmed with painted wooden ornaments; bril-, liant red and orange buckles, and all sorts of metal belts to liven up dull frocks. Ami then, as a dressier touch, tlwre are the ribbon girdles, wide sashe-s of moire tying on the side or In the middle of the front or back. Gray seems to be a favorite color, and then, of course, all the tans anil hennas. I'laln navy and black satin frocks are livened up with soft sashes of colored chiffon, tying with long ends at the sides. Evening gowns, too, use these soft sashes, and vary them with bunches of tulle In one, two or three shades, at the hip and trailing on the floor. THIS TO BE SPRING FASHION Delightfully springlike in suggestion Is this trimmed tailored hat with its loosely draped veil. FASHIONS IN BRIEF Elaborate tucklngs adorn the long spring gloves. There Is a vogue for high cilors lu draped veils. The upturned brim of a black vel vet hat is of lilac; lace, bunded with jade green ribbon. It is a compromise between a com fortable low neck and a modish high one, for a short collar across the back is wired to stand up. Some green Is worn the mysterious olive tones which are so delightful, or a rather bright, yellowish Kreen trimmed with gray squirrel, chinchilla or gazelle. From Paris conies the ruche of vel vet or moire ribbon arranged in loops. A long end hangs down at one side and at the other is placed a large mil linery rose In natural color. A rival of the wool sweater for sport wear Is the wool Jersey over blouse, cut to fit the figure very inugly and trimmed usually with bands of an gora In contrasting colors and possibly a touch of wool or chenille em broidery. To Protect Sleeves. A very nice Utile thing to protect your long sleeves can be made from a large size and fancy bordered hand kerchief. This is the nay it Is done: Cut diagonally across from corner to corner. Make a narrow band along the edge Just large enough to slip the hand through. Now (rather the bias edge of the cut handkerchief into the band. Make a seam four inches long connecting the Inner edges. Adjntt over the sleeve ud fatten with small finej do. 1 siZ&i tut. i S The District of Columbia Should Vote and Be Represented in Congress. By ARTHUR BRAMWELL, Washington Visitor. One of the chief reasons for the failure of the District of Columbia to obtain the electoral franchise is the large number of residents who wish to retain their ballots in their home states and do not want to vote here. I have been coming to V,' ashington for many years and have been interested in the refusal of congress to bestow the. ballot on the district. Like any other real American, I think the people of the capital should have a voice in the government tinder which they live but I am afraid it will never be gTanted them until the thousands of workers who vote in other states relinquish their home vote for a vote here and urge their con gressmen to grant the district the franchise. There is no doubt in my mind that the district should vote and that it should have representation in congress as well as the power of choosing its own municipal officers and public servants. The school situation in Washington has never been entirely satisfactory, simply because the peo ple have had no voice in the selection of their school officials. Xo city can succeed as well under a paternalistic government as under its own rule. Folitics is necessay in any city, as it keeps some factions actively watching every movement made by the party in power, and the officials know that they must satisfy the public if they wish to be leturned. The District of Columbia cast about 60,000 votes in the recent elec tion, all of them iu other states. LEGAL NOTICES NOTICK FOR PUBLICATION Department of the Interior, U. S.
