A three-in-one gown, says Mrs. Roosevelt, wife

of the U.S. President, was a big help on her recent lecture tour. The dress was of uncrash- able black velvet with a long skirt. A Jacket with long kleeves was added for dinner wear. To vary the appearance in the evening, she sometimes added a long sash that trailed off into a brocaded train. A. ruff around the neck provided another change.
