s Summer Has Really Started
and White Silk Dresses Arrive
They arc the silk Jersey dresson
that so many women are wear
ing; as in-between dresses this
year. They are not too formal
for any day-time use and they
have the advantage of being able
to be packed in a suit case or
other small space without muss
ing. The silk Jersey is a good firm
weave and lends itself to tho
elaborate braiding, embroidery,

And this means oy rail or by

The Strap Slipper Where It
Came From Where It Is
"Where did this great wave of strap slippers come from
how did the fashion originate?" we asked a shoeman.
And what do you think he said ? That it is a French fash
ionas we knowand that it got its impetus in this country
from the pretty little short-vamped strapped slippers the French
war-bridos wore over!
Tho men who design shoes just tried tho entire idea. American
women rejected the extremely short vamp, but clung to the strap.
And hence spread the strap to every feminine foot in the country.
Be that as it may, the strap slipper is a pretty and becoming
fashion, and it will be long before women give it up.
In no place in Philadelphia can women see it in greater
variety than at Wanamaker's.
