Novelty Is Lighter in Weight Than
Many Crepe De Chines and Suit-
able for Gowns.
The styles brought out at tills time
of the year In a very large measure
predate the fashions of the coming
autumn. Wdraen have proved that
their tastes In dress are simple, for
out of the multitude of ideas con-
stantly launched, and many of them
pushed to the utmost, those embody-
ing simplicity invariably take a tirm
hold. The greatest successes known
In the history of dressmaking have
been made in recent years by design-
ers who worked along these lines.
Those who have eschewed complica-
tion and held to an almost stern sim-
plicity have been the ones whose
models have had the greatest vltulitj
and endurance.
No stronger current has run
through the stream of fashions dur-
ing the last few years than the Vion-
net genie or type of dress, asserts a
writer In the New York Tribune. It
never can be said of Vionnet's models
that they definitely date themselves,
as do most fashions that rage for a
time. They are beautiful, artistic and
becoming, and no one can deny that
they are enduring. Women who have
become accustomed to this type of
dress continue from season to season
to have a similar thing, and often, in
ordering a model, have the same style
copied two or three times, the only
difference being In the color.
In materials, crepe de chine and
crepe romaine are still favorites, but
they have a new ally in a very light-
weight wool material of crepe weave,
which Is now being used for hand-
made dresses of the sort that have
been so popular in crepe de chine,
voile and handkerchief linen. These

BETTER RACE RELATIONS
Most of the thinking of whites and
Negroes about one another in Ameri-
ca is not more than half truth—half
truth given currency by newspapers
and magazines, white and colored;
near facts tinged by racial interpre-
tation. Special racial situations, such
as riots, are usually interprted to the
outside world according to the racial
state of mind of the person or group
reporting. Community customs and
attitudes are not determined by facts,
but are based upon certain racial as-
sumptions with little basis in fact;
for example, the common assumption
among whites, when a Negro family
tries to get away from the muddy,
dark, unpoliced streets where most
Negro homes are, that they want to
live next door to white people.
Here, is the test for those who
would improve race relations: to
state the case in terms of the con-
crete and thus challenge white and
colored men to action around con-
crete situations where agreement is
easiest. Out of such work will come
the better racial attitude. There are
here in the South great human tasks
which challenge white and colored In-
telligence and faith. These furnish
the best opportunity for the build
ing of racial good will. We shall
never lower the death rate from tu-
berculosis until white and colored
intelligence work together to that end.
An invaluable by-product will bet-
ter racial attitudes.

SPLENDID PROGRAM FOR URBAN
LEAGUE MEET
(Preston News Service)
PITTSBURGH, Pa., Aug. lu.—A ten-
tative program for the annual con-
lerence oi the Urban League to be
held here October 18-20 Inclusive has
been received and will undoubtedly
do of unusual interest not only to
Urban League workers and officials
in the various cities, but also to so-
cial workers who are connected with
other organizations. Especially will
the Negio angle of the various social
problems be emphasized in the many
discussions at this conference.
In commenting on the work of the
Urban League, John T. Clark, execu-
tive secretary of the Pittsburgh
Branch, said, "In many of the smaller
cities containing a large proportion
of colored peopie, the same problems
exist as are tound in the largest cities
and many of the progressive leaders
are constantly asking with their limit
ed resources how they can begin Ur-
ban League work, lo such represen-
tative i\egro and white people the
conference to be held here next Oc-
tober will prove of unusual value.
Such cities or towns are urged to
delegate one or more persons inter-
ested in these problems to attend this
conference and if they get in touch
with the national office, 127 East 23rd
street. New York City or with the lo-
cal office, 51*8 Wylie Avenue, arrange-
ments can be made to have such rep-
resentatives recognized as delegates.'

Interest in woolen materials at a sea-
Bon of the year when the mercury
stands at Its highest, but this novelty
woolen is lighter In weight than many
crepe de chines and is particularly
suitable for dresses being made up at
this time. It makes delightful frocks
for the mountains or seashore, and
models made from this fine wool
crepe need not be packed away for
another season when one conies back
to town, but will be found very serv-
iceable throughout the autumn and
winter.

GOWNS FOR THE STOUT BRIDE
Care Should Be Taken to Avoid
Boldly Overdressing; Long, Un-
broken Lines Suitable.
There are stout brides to be dressed
ns well as slim ones and for them are
suggested panels, long, unbroken lines
or fine draperies that fall with a
certain weight, but never should a
plump figure call attention to itself
by overdressing or by trying to follow
some fashion, charming in itself, per-
haps, but only adapted to the unusual-
ly tall and thin.
Sometimes, by boldly exaggerating
curves, one can make them appear ac-
tually less as. for example, In the full
petticoats of the time of Louis XVI,
when a full hip was well disguised
and a waist, however ample, appeared
small in comparison.
Frilled Blouses.
Not In many a season lias the white
frilled blouse enjoyed such favor as
.now. Fillet and Irish lace are the
accepted trimmings.

WHO OWNS GUN?
(Preston News Service)
WASHINGTON, .DC., Aug. 9 —
Now, who really owns the gun? Un-
cle Sam says he does. Shad Wright,
a cafe proprietor, says he does. Hen-
ry Day says he did. But the police
the gun. A few nights ago
Wright reported that his revolver had
been stolen. A night prior Henry
Day, who had been a regular guest at
wrights establishment, walked into
Wright's office and asked him to keep
his (Day's) revolver for him. One
look at it and Wright decided that it
was his stolen gun. Day was there-

BLACK CREPE FOR DRESSES
Ail-Around Satisfactory Color Holds
Favor With Many Women for
Luncheon Time.
Many of the dresses seen nt lunch-
eon time are made of black crepe, for
there is n certain portion of the popu-
lation which never seems to care lo
desert tliat all-around and satisfactory
color. These frocks are invariably
lone, and almost always they have
some sort of draping at one side of
the skirt, which luis a way of hanging
much below the hem of the dress
which, to begin with. Is long enough
to strike the ank es. Then this sort
of frock you will find being worn with
lints that are extremely large of hrlm,
with little trimming, but with a great
deal of line, which helps Ihem to add
iiinteriall.v to the grace of the cos-
luine as it originally existed.
Some frocks of foulard stand very
f high among those that are fashionable.
They are especially those made of
black and white or dark blue and
white prints when they are made
along formal lines. They, too, are
drafted, with the exception of a few
little bits of lace used Just as edging
that are left to show their patients
Itiite uninterruptedly. One of these
was of a black and' wh'te print. Hie

white that twined over the fabric In

what the scheme of its design was
founded upon, an'' the bodice, quits

carry out the lines upon which the

of white moire ribbon across one side
of the brim. A black chantllly lace
veil drooped over the brim and to the
shoulders, and the earrings were made
of long strings of white pearls.
The linen street suits are only Just
beginning to appear. And this season
they are done In the shape of the very
simplest of litle frocks. There are very
few coats and skirts of that tailored
type which linen used so often to be.
But the linen dresses follow those
bright colors that the tweeds estab
lished, and then they are kept to the
coat-dress type, with large sleeves and
big pearl buttons, and shawl or sur-
plice collars to udd distinction to their
cut and make.

Favored Shade.
Pale yellow georgette over white,
the georgette embroidered with wiiite
soutache braid, is one of the populai
combinations of the moment. The yel
low is not so deep as the dent de lion
of early spring nor yet so faint as the

"ATTROCITIES OF SOUTHLAND

DECLARE8 VIRGINIAN
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 9.—
Discussing the necessity for the pas-
sage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill,
Mr. H. E. Barnett, a Virginian, has
the following to say: "As a former
Virginian 1 have bowed my head in
shame at the attrocities of the south-
land. Years ago 1 viewed the victim
of a mob hanging by the neck from
an apple tree. He was gagged, bia
clothes torn and his skin lacerated
and bruised by the stones over whiclk
he had been dragged.
"The sight sent cold chills through,
me. I saw him many nights after in
my dreams. It was a scene I shall
never forget; and yet all, except the
members of the victim's race, prat-
tled and giggled as if nothing unusual
had happened!
"Later in the day the body of the
victim was cut down, and the cor**-
ner's jury rendered a verdict that the
victim had come to his death at the
hands of persons unknown—yet well-
known—to the Jury.
"When men by whom the law is en-
acted for the betterment of the com-
munity, fail to puholu it, and become-
violaters of the code under which,
society In the state is to be governed:
then the general government should)
step forward and vindicate the order
of civilization and pass such a bill
as the Dyer AnXiLynchlsg
