The shirt Of the fall and winter = ~
have a white body and q color0a boou1Ds
There il no doubt but what people hav6
become very fond of the co!ored shirt.
For reasons Of economy and appearanco
1t is very pleasant to wear, because 81
slight spot does not make the Weaeer
feel as if he had forfeited all claim -
consideration from people who bejievoe
that cleanliness is next to godlineoa
This newest shirt will not have any tab.
And all the cuffs are to be detached. OF
course these detached cuffs will be made
for link buttons. The man who Wearg
the old style button nowadays shows hi
ignorance.
The bosom Of the new shirt Is to be an
inch shorter than the old one, a change
so sensible that 1t will at once becomo
popular. The majority of vests now-.
adays button high and why man should
be forced to wear a shield of starched
linen of such unusual breadth and
length. is something no fellow can find
out. The Madras shirt also promises to
be a favorite. 1t is to be open both
front and back, and the front opening
will be extended three inches below the
bosom. Dress shirts of pique are still
worn as they have been for the last ten
years and the standing collar also re-
tains that same ancient style.
Speaking of collars, if one wishes to be
thoroughly up to date he must have this
feature Of his apparel from ~ to 2x
inches high in front. The style Of collar
known as the high band turned down
will hold its own.
In costumes for women for golf the
same material will be used as heretofore.
The makers Of these costumes say that
the skirt should be a little shorter, Il
anything, than heretofore, and the waist
plain. Skirts with circular sides and sew
eral cores are considered preferable. ana
in length the best dresserS wear skirto
just to the ankles. Women have be-
come SO greatly in evidence in golf that
they pay much more attention to their
golf dresses than they used to. 1t has
got to such pass that their customary
apparel must be made according to cer-
tain patterns, even down to the shoes.
The shoes should be Of heavy leather.
and If weather will permit, of low cut.
Like the latest shoe for men, the edges Of
the soles must show distinctly outside
the uppers of the shoes. If they are

of the wearer look large. For the cold
weather or fall the shirt waist worn with
the golf costume should be either vel
veteen or flannel. Red is the favorito
color for these, as it shows beautifully
against the landscape. The golf coat II
likely to supersede the golf cape to
great extent this year. This coat il
tight-fitting in the back and the front
buttons in such way as to give
double breasted effect. However, the
coat is generally worn thrown open with
the lapels laid back. 1t is very smart,
indeed. The Alpine hat or the Tam-o'-
Shanter are likely to remain the favorite
styles of headgear.
Silver gray is to be one of the favorite
coors of fall and winter gowns. Posi-
bly, this may be because it is considered
must be constructed of plain goods.
However, If one does not like gray, they
can combine it with pink, cerise, green or
scarlet. A very elegant fall costume is
made of cloth. The jacket is separate.
Of either the REFER or military style,
while the waist is round and fitted with
basque pieces or in the form of blouse.
One gown that is not particularly ex-
pensive is made of gray canvas over
white guipurc lace over yellow silk, with
collar to match. The waist has front
effect like that of blouse, and the lace
yoke forms epaulettes over the small
sleeves.
