ARTISTS have found in many lands and ages their
inspiration for the exquisite new printed Silks.
Roman crepe, satin and crepe de chine are among the
silks which show a fascinating variety of treatment
.and color in their decoration. There are colorful wild
flowers, medallion effects reminding one of the
Directoire age, designs taken from Chinese vases,
Byzantine draperies and Persian robes. Of them-
"selves or in combination with plain fabrics these
Silks are full of intriguing costume possibilities.

Esther Fitton.
Naturally they would oppose the new
Inequality proposed allowing the father
to multiply the votes, but might favor
revision in which the father and
mother might divide.
Esther Fitton of Bellaire, Ohio. is
studying art at the Academy of Fine
A(ts in Chicago. Is she planning to
become a famous artist or a great
singer? No, although she has a fine
voice. Esther is going to be a master
plumber—head of the firm that has
been in the Hitton family for fifty-one
years.
The business has been handed down
from father to son heretofore, but the
present head has no son—only two
daughters—so Esther feels that it de-
volves upon her to "carry on” when
the time comes for her father to re-
tire. Bo ah* has learned the trade
and is prepared to see that Bellalre’s
homes are kept in a sanitary con-
dition as heretofore.
