 I have observed in looking over the new goods for autumn that all that IS called new, paradoxical though 1t may tendency in all things related even in the slightest degree to art. The painters are drawing on the old schools for in-
 spirations. designers are reveling m tne decorators are copying old interiors and
 furniture and the architects are drawing inspiration from the Greek and Roman sSsGS SSsnans f fashions tsas are haTs Seen
