A Daily Fashion Talk by l'Torcnce Kosc
EVEIIY jear the evening wrap us
sumes new importance. In fact,
the making and designiiiR ot beautiful
nnd sumptuous evening wraps is quite
nn art in ittelf, and there arc brocades
Rnd silks and rich trimmings, the sole
object of their existence being to make
beautiful some evening wrap. In no
type of garment, by the way, is it pos
sible Jo show off rich brocades and
tapestries to better advantage. For one
thing, there is a larger expanse, a
strnighler line and a larger unbroken
surface than on the evening frock, and
the fart tlint it is n gurment to be
worn in the evening means that the
brilliance of the color and gorgeonsness
sof the fabric are RoinR to be revealed
under the enhancing lights of eveniug.
Of exquisite and strikinR brocaded
hllk is the cveninR wrap here shown, und
the collar "is of the sort that murks it
unmistakably as n recent production,
or it is of enormous proportions and
spreads itself out over the. shoulders in
the way that the new collars do. It is
made ot taupe-colored wolf, which is
nRaln used for the lnrge cuffs and for the
band nt the loner edge of thp back.
And there is another earmark, the new
thing of the autumn of 1011) this use
ot the fur at the bnck and' not at the
front ot the wrap.

We Said in Our A ertisement Last Monday:
"Many a share in the Building & Loan Asso. is being paid for every
month through the savings made possible by trading at our Stores.
We Are Going a Step Further in Saying:
Many a little home has been bought and the mortgage cleared off
for a hard working man through the economies practiced by his dear
wife in buying her goods at one of the units now forming the great
American Stores' chain.
Are You Reaping the Reward of Direct Purchasing as
