FOR AFTERNOON FROCK DESIGN THAT WILL LOOK ITS BEST IN GRAY. ta f f e t a and Chiffon Should Be the Ms- teriale Employed—Shoulder Col lar Also Should Be Made of the Taffeta. I think If you are fond of gray—a nice silvery shade—that the accom panying design for an afternoon frock should strike your fancy and work out splendidly In taffeta and chiffon, with a contrasting note of color In the cross-over shoulder straps and girdle which might be petunia blue, purple, emerald green or cerise, writes Lillian E. Young In the Washington Star. This strap arrangement Is quite a smart touch and hints a bit of the military—an Influence that will be Sm a r t Frock of Taffeta and Chiffon. widely noted In styles this season. It Is one length of satin or velvet ribbon, first run under a shoulder collar across the back of the blouse, then crossed over the bust In front, and finally en circled about the waist and tied in a little bow at the back. This is only a detail, but one of those which count. Tho dress has a long-sleeved chiffon blouse, whose lower portion is covered with a straight band facing of the taf feta. The shoulder collar too, Is of taffeta, while the upstanding collar and little crossed vest and turned back cuffs are all of tine white batiste. To a straight taffeta hip yoke the long chiffon tunic is gathered. It runs down into a point in back and front and Is faced with a five-inch hem of taffeta. A shorter tunic of chiffon is mounted from the belt, left open in front, and finished about the bottom with a shirred heading. The exposed portion of the underskirt Is of taffeta. The entire dress may be made of crepe do chine, if desired, or would even be a good model for serge, elimi nating the short upper tunic. MAKES USEFUL CAKE STAND Easy to See Possibilities of Device T h a t May Be Cheaply and Quick ly Constructed. There are often occasions when all the cake dishes are in use, and yet more are needed. When this happens ordinary plates can be turned Into cake stands quite easily and cheaply. Purchase two or three wire holders. The sizes vary. The medium onqs are the most useful; these fit on to an ordinary pudding or bread and but ter plate. 1 The handle can be left as it is, but will look all the daintier if swathed with a pretty ribbon. One and a half yards of ribbon will be quite sufficient for it. Swathe round and round and at the top put a dainty little bow. The color of the ribbon used will depend upon the general decorations of the room and table. When these stands are used for sandwiches a little card with the kind of sandwiches the stand holds written on can be hung from the top of the holder. Very pretty and useful presents can be given by this simple means. At many china shops odd lots of china are to be had at very cheap prices. Very good plates can sometimes be picked up for a copper or so. A holder daintily covered with rib bon, and put on a decorated plate, looks quite an Ipposlng gift, and It Is one that is greatly appreciated, for one never has too many useful and pretty stands for the table. Many of tho new waists are made to wear over the skirts. v f : i 1 HE NASSAU POST! FREEPORT, N .Y, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1914 <* Delicatessen and Lunch Room J. A. GOODMAN RAILROAD AVENUE Telephone 848-J Good Citzenship This Nation could better afford to part with its Army, its Navy, its Military Science, than to have an abatem ent of one per cent from the regard which people entertain for their home town, their respect for their local laws—their quick submission to order, and their love of home. In losing our military power, we would lose some visible condi tions that represent strength—conditions that could be replenished by taxation, better than losing a sm all percent, of local pride, local re spect, local reverence for the home town. We would part with forces inherited from passed ages, in strength more subtle, more necessary, more im p o rtant than guns or ammunition. The success o f a city or village depends much on the men behind it. The course o f an inland river, the geographical location o f a town, may have some influence, but a dozen energetic, live, progressive individuals are worth all the muddy rivers, the inland locations in the county.
