those who remain in town retire into
a convenient period of dullness that is
enlivened only by informal affai
thanking their stars mean while that
the respite from teas, receptions and
dances has come.. '
The social caneldar for the week

Wank, 'long motor trips, and picnics

Margaret Mason Writes of
Gotham Fads and Fashions
By Margaret Macon.
Dame Fashion knits a soldier's stock
ing i
With yarn that's left aha does her
mocking.
Mow don't you think this very shock
ing! New York, July 14. Perhaps, along
KUis Parker Butler's line of reasoning
that "Pigs If Pigs" you think tbatn
"amook la smocks." But you are
wrong. Smocks are no longer smocks,
they arc shocks.
There is a new hybrid race, flock or
awarm of them that has come to light
ia tiny little box of a shop on Fifth
Tenue. It offers rats, but the smocks
arc the real curios.
They are not any of them what you
would expert a well regulated smoek
to be. Each one is rather the embodi
ment of a wild flipht of fancy, to put
it mildly.
They start out all right and proper
la linen, pongee, crepe or cretonne, but
then cornea the funny business. Some
of them ar applitiued in a mad hit or
bubs riot of gay colored liuen disks
oatline-stitched in black yarn. Others
are patched in crazy quilt fashion and
feather stitched with yarn. Always
there ia yarn, yarn, yarn In some of
-very color, stitch or fashion.
Home of the mora decorous smocks
liave cut out patterns of the cretonne,
bukota of flowers, birds or beasts

skirt or on the pockets and yet others
have yarn crocheted scallops around
ths collar, cuff and pockets. One of
black aatine is broken out so rashly in
caruued and varicolored appliqued J
disks that it loonka like. fi Futurist
companion piece to "A Nude Descend
ing The Stairs."
There are also some new sweaters or
blazers quite as new as the smocks, but
not quite so wierd. However, they
put to shame for very strlpcdness both
the zebra and the Sing Sing habitant.
These striped sweater coats worn
with oue-toned corduroy or linen skirts
are a sort of vice versa flipflop of
fashion from the one toned sweaters
worn with awning striped skirts that
were so omnipresent at the beginning
of the scasou. f
Although the stripes are riotous in
thoir color effects, they are not so with
out rhyme or reason by uny means.
They are striped in regimental colors
and each daughter of tho regiment may
express by her coat of many colors tier
regimental preference.
For the patriotic preparedness person
there are te stripes of red, white and
blue and her sentiments as well as her
figure may thus be embodied in her
garment. Regimental colors are a
deal more exclusive however, aud ex
press a preference not quite so broad
and promiscuous. Worn with white
skirts these gay striped sweater coats
are particularly stunning and there also
are accompanying accoutrements of
hats and parasols striped to match.
The expression: "I, she is that
stripe" hereby gathers new meaning
and the regimental sweater offers, as
well as warmth aud adornment, a de
lightful modern method of wearing your
heart on your sleeve by wearing instead
his stripes.
Verily, no regiment would fail tOj
present arms to such color bearers.
An announcement that caused a rip-
plo of pleasureable surprise during tie
