Georgette combines well with all the
fashionable silks for summer semi
dress gowns and these Include fou
lards, satins and taffetas. The print
ed foulards, made up with plain
georgette,. have accounted for many of
the most beautiful frocks, the two fab
rics being used in about equal propor
tions. Satin and georgette, with a
preponderance of satin, seem the rule
In very dressy models. The reverse
of this, a frock of georgette with trim
ming of satin, makes such Intriguing
afternoon dresses as that one pictured
here. Printed chiffons and voiles of
the indestructible kind are also com
bined with satin and used as a trim
ming and in accessories for them.
There Is nothing more beautiful
than georgette In certain gray tonsil,
especially the lighter ones. The dress
shown here may be developed in apy
of the colors presented for spring, tjot
It is a pleasure to Imagine It In tljat
tone of gray called “nickel” and In an
other known as “silver.” In "beige”
and “fawn” it is sure of making a Bl
umph, and in “wistaria” and “h|l
cinth” blue it would be lovely.
This frock is made over an under
skirt and short bodice of satin and tits
a long tunic. A silk cord, used nr
the decocation, is couched on «e
georgette in a very simple pattern, lit
outlines an apron effect on the tuzgk,
one of the numberless vagaries In ft
signing that keep the tunic Interest
ing. The bodice has a round neck and
fastens at the side under a band of
satin. The flowing sleeves are a trib
ute to that popular Innovation in this
season’s styles. Three bands of satin
make a fine decoration for them. There
Is a crushed (or wrinkled) girdle of
the crepe georgette that does not In
terfere with the graceful lines which,
more than anything else, make the
success of these soft frocks.
'
When Moths Annoy.
To free carpets from moths or In
sects, strew thickly with fine, dry salt
and roll up for a week. Unroll and
sweep hard; If indoors, burn the
sweepings. Repeat the process, and
in three days sweep twice, once against
the nap and once with It, and before
relaying sift salt and red pepper into
the parts affected.
Accessories in Red.
One of the new contributions to
colorful accessories are collar and
cuff sets of bright ruby red. These
are made of satin sometimes with navy
blue, linings, and are regarded as es
pecially desirable to lighten up a dark
blue frock.__
