Street skirts grow shorter. High heel shoes are no longer seen on the street. The popular yelling Is silk chiffon, and most uncom- fortable 1t is, too. Veils are cut from silk gauge, and the wise woman buys her veils from the evening dress gauzas instead of from regular veilipgs, for thus she gets good width, pays less and gets a veil that looks we'll and lasts long time. Yeils should only be worn with very big hats and bonnets. Never was black satin used 80 much. The very stout lady who de- lights to array herself in shiny satin has now @ chance to msks herself conspicuous again. Fur is used on hats, skirts, clesks snd bodices, and even on pettiooats.

Of course the old Continen- tai uniform must be stuck to, even if 1t does expose such defects as were too con- spicuous Saturday. We suppose that the legs of the new Foot Guards fairly repre- sent the legs of New Haven's men, but we hope and we verify believe that company of New Haven '1sdy" Foot Guards would make much better showing in this i'm portant respect.
