Show mm ESPlTft the Taut that the garment f8 1 I (or should it be garments'?) is . J ungraceful, unserviceable) and altogether impossible., there seems to be women in the large cities who havo really adopted the harem skirt. Either this is flic case or the manufacturer manufac-turer has a very enterprising press airent to push the sale ot the peculiar dress, for from New York come wild lnlos of jeweled anklets to bo worn with the 'alleged frocks. Ono paper says: "One of tho new anklet-s which has recently been imported by a. .jeweler .jew-eler is made in serpent fashion, with reversible jeweled eyes emeralds on ono side and rubies on tho other -so that the owner can wear tho anklet to match tho color of the goww she wears. Tho plain gold anklots, linely traced in Oriental designs, arc being shown. , 'T. think the jeweled ones are far prettier and less cumbersome to wear, said a prominent Society woman. " 'Have you experienced any discomfort dis-comfort in" wearing yours that is. from the curiosity of the people?' she was asked. , , , , " Oh, thev all si are a bit when I wear it; a wa"iter nearly spilled his tray of soup and things ono night when I was dininu at one of the hotels; but. then, they'd stare just the .same ir T wore it around my hair so, what s the odds? I think it a most attractive little lit-tle fad, very feminine, oven if it docs hark back to its former use, tho shackling of women slaves for, attcr all, women arc still slaves this tune to fashion. So, .just to prove it, 1 shall continue to wear my anklet, and ,ust to prove that other women arc ditto, they will all soon be wearing them You watch and sec.' '' About the most that ono can do under un-der the circumstances is to offer thanks that Salt Lake is not so up-to-date- as some Tvould have her. Doubtless a smaller place has its disadvantages Tvhicb, according to the knockers, nothing noth-ing can offset, but to the casual observer ob-server it has its advantages also. TVe havo so accustomed ourselves to the idea tha.t fashion's decrees are incurable in-curable that we frequently fail to note the very notablo exceptions to tho rule that her -reign is low. The exceptions excep-tions may bo just enough, it is true, to prove tlio rule, but they are notable enough to merit attention at least. There have been a few cases locally where personal charm and marked ability or some other distinguishing mark nave been quite sufficient to warrant, war-rant, overlooking a lack of conformity to passing-' fashion. Not infrequently time has passed and fashion has veered just onough to make the oddity of a former season tho up-to-date one of the, present time. In the matter of hair alone, who does not recall the .case of a young woman here whose glorious locks were for years coilod around her shapely head in a fashion exactly different from the prevailing style? A head poised perfectly and covered with its great shiny braids, came after years to be her distinguishing mark, and this added to the fact that she had a rare talent of another nature made -her stylo distinctive- Later tho fashion came of wearing such a head dress, but hers had remained. A few years ago, less than a decade, there came to the town as a summer visitor, a radiant beauty, whose charms were so evident that "her "lack of utyJo" was commented upon only as a 'matter of surpriso or at tho most of jealousy The only gown she ever wore I was a plain white waist and skirt, i much tho style of a nurse's uniform with a twist of black tulle at her lovely throat. A small black hat which had, seen some wear made as good effect as :c tiara would havo done and it was said by the men that no man over saw whether her dress was whilo or colored or black. : Miss Pay Loose, a very recent picture j of whom appears todav; is tho talented I daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. 15. Loose of Provo. Miss Loose is a singer of i more than local note, having spent some J time studying abroad. She belongs to the class of sweet song birds who have f come from the Garden City, which j seems to be the producer of tho sweet singers for the slate. Miss Loose goes abroad again next year for a tstay of a year or so to bo spent in musical bttt'dy. It is most gratifying to tho friends of MissLillian Woodward to loam yesterday yes-terday of tho honor which has been shown her in choosing her as social secretary to Mrs. .John Hays Hammond, the wife of the special embassador to the court of St. .lanlos for tho coronation corona-tion of King Gcorce. Tho honor is ono which is eagerly sought by any young woman who has any claims In ability in that Jine. and it is a distinct compliment from, Mrs. Hammond in I recognition of the peculiar fitness of Miss Woodward for the position. 'Miss Woodward will leave within a very, short tiimo to join the Hammond family. Miss Hetty Hammond, who visited here as a uost of Mrs. Victor Clement, now Mrs. Sydney A. Cloman, is remembered remem-bered as a charming girl. Is there ono word which has been so thoroughly abused as to meaning nnd used in such a meaningless way as the word "lines?" Time was when Ihc mere word had some si'Tuificanco. As a rule w.hen ono sp' of linos one meant th6 lines in a i . or more remotely re-motely the artistic lines in -amio drawing. draw-ing. 'Then on mo a time when the word sugecsted a distincti..n between the; ordinary make of garments and those fashioned by a master hand. But now ono ma' put on the simplest frocks, and hear that "Ihe lines are so good." If a hat is becoming "the lines are so good." If a dross is the latest idea of the fashion maker's art, "the lines aro so good." If a shoo fits the foot (no matter how shapeless) again "tho lines are so good," etc., etc., till one wishes I hi! really expressive things might be copyrighted. Word comes from Kod Bluff. Cal., that the marriage of Miss Kaura Brans-ford Brans-ford and Albert Lee Clark will take place on .Tunc 11) there. Miss Brans-ford, Brans-ford, who is a niece of Mayor Brans-ford Brans-ford and of Mrs. E. F. Holmes, is one of the real beauties who has been a guest in this city and her many friends here arc moro than ordinarily interested inter-ested in her approaching marriage. Tho announcement of the engagement was made last fall, at which time a stunning stun-ning portrait of Miss Bransford was published in these columns. One of tho important events of the near future will be the dinner and musicale at the Commercial club on the evening of May 26. The affair is the fourth in Iho 'series of monthly dinners din-ners and will bring to a close the winter win-ter season. Unlike (hose so far given this will include ihc ladies as well as members and the musicale which will follow the dinner will bring out some of the vcrv best talent in the city. Mrs. W. Montague Ferry will be one of the singers, which fact in itself is a drawing card. The latter part of tho present month will be rather well filled with events of real importance. The coining of the Russian Symphony orchestra on May 22 and 23 is an event of great importance impor-tance in a musical way, despite the fact that Salt Lake has had a large share of musical events worthy of note during the last winter. The event, io como is lo be patronized by a largo number of society people. Tho giving or a May dance for tho benefit of the playgrounds is likely to be made an annual custom of tho place, since all the girls who attended the meeting yeatorda' morning expressed themselves willing to work again next year for the samo cause. The meeting was a most encouraging one and showed the net earnings from tho dance to be about $300. A committee consisting consist-ing of Miss Lucilc Frauckc, Miss Mildred Mil-dred McMillan and Miss Gertrude Hun. Son will file the reports of the affair and facilitate the work of the next season and will also write notes of thanks to all who were instrumental in making a success of the affair.
