| Those Practical Taffeta Suits
If manufacturers of ready-to-wear
clothes were to neglect to provide taf
feta suits for summer wear the
chances are that women would have
them made to order rather than face
a summer without them. Taffeta
makes a crisp, cool, smart and often
inexpensive suit that may be made
more or less dressy, according to the
accessories worn with it and is most
practical and comfortable for warm
weather. As there is a perennial de
mand for it we may count on new de
signs each season, at least until some
other silk displaces taffeta. But all
the new weaves are of a totally differ
ent character and cannot rival a silk
to which they bear no likeness, so the
taffeta suits continue to fill their own
particular niche. Suits of silk jersey
and the latest arrivals, made of the
lightest weight in tricolette, may come
to divide honors with taffeta suits
when they are as well known.
Navy blue is as much a favorite in
silk as in wool and the suit at the left
of the two shown above is in this
color. Its skirt is cut with a slight in
ward slope toward the bottom and Is
plain. The coat is straight but belted
at the waistline with a wide belt of
the taffeta, having a buckle at each
side of the back. The side pieces are
pointed at the bottom with pockets
that are also pointed and shirred
across the top, the shirring forming
a narrow standing frill. There is a
narrow turnover collar and deep cuffs.
The suit at the right is as plain as a
serge suit but is, nevertheless, a smart
model. The skirt, with overlapped
seams at each side, begins nnrrowing
toward the bottom just below the hips.
Rows of buttons, covered with taffeta,
are set on these overlapped seams, ter
minating about eight Inches above the
very narrow hem. Covered buttons
finish the sleeves and ornament the
lower part of the coat fronts and a
narrow sash, made of the silk, is fin
ished with tassels. The crepe de chine
collar and vestee are in a light beige
color.
Posies for Decorations.
The hothouse is rivaling the simple
field in what it brings to flower hats
and beflowered brims this year, for
roses, opulent jasmine and broad, full
pansies are the style.
GOOD BILL AT
OPENING OF
NEW THEATRE
The great photoplay “Sporting
Life,” produced by Maurice Tournier,
a superb special Artcraft feature, will
be the opening program Thursday
night in the new Empress theatre.
It is an adaption of the famous
Drury Lane melodrama, and there isn’t
a dull moment from start to finish.
In the scenes of the prizefight at the
National Sporting Club, of London,
and the Derby, excitement reaches the
highest pitch.
The story deals with a young Brit
ish nobleman who seks to rehabilitate
his fortunes, which are at a .low ebb.
He is a thorough sportsman, and he
backs a prize fighter, and his own
mare, Lady Love to win the Derby.
How both events are carried through
successfully, in the fact of serious
difficulties laid in the young sport
man’s way by a relentless enemy,
forms a story that is thrilling and
heart appealing.
Running through the scenes of sport
and intrigue, is a charming love story
which holds much suspensive interest.
The cast was selected, each for a
distinctive character type, the picture
has been splendidly produced, and the
story itself is on a high order of ex
cellence. There is fun, a lot of it, and
action, fast and furious, with a climax
that’s warranted to pull everyone from
their seats.
This big production comes direct
from Seattle especially for an opening
program and is shown Thursday for
the first time in Alaska. )
Captain Lathrop has been disap
pointed in the arrival of his new
chairs. Because of this, the new thea
tre is not yet equipped with its full
seating capacity, and it has been ar
ranged to run two shows on the open
ing night, in order to accommodate
everyone. The first show begins at
7:30 sharp and all who plan attending
then should be in their places prompt
ly. The second show, at nine o'clock,
will accommodate all who prefer the
later hour, or who are unable to go
earlier.
The program will start with a late
Pathe News, followed by “Sporting
Life.”
