HOWE ITS PROBLEMS AND INTERESTS
The Indispensable Separate
Skirt foE fRe Wardrobe

It would be almos. heresy 20 say that
separate skirts could ever be actually
fashionable. and yet strange 10 remark.
there is al least one short separate
skirt In every winter OUTFIT For the
long fur coat there is Dothing more
necessary than a good fitting walking
skirt, and then with a pretty silk or
cotton waist, one plain dark skirt is
most useful 10 wear at home in the
morning. There are indeed numberless
times when a smart cloth skirt that Is
not made up in connection with any one
particular waist or coat is Of the great
est service. Often the separate skirt
must be chosen with regard 10 a fur
wrap or fur lined coat, and then, OF
course. definite shades must be con-
suited For a brown, pony, mink, or
caTacul jacket a cloth or a cotton velvet
SKIRT OF the exact shade of the fur Is
best although an attractive plaid IS
sure to be all right This year the plaids
are of all Colors and varieties and are
al on the one tone. while in others are
introduced many contrasting shades
The dull plaids are always more pOpu-
lar than the too vivid combinations Of
blue. green. and red, but there are many
bright, warm effects iEat are extremely
pretty. With gray caracul may be worn
black and white. or gray and white
plaid, or check, although solid gray is
also effective.

silks and brOCades sold I'm dress lengths
that are hand embroidered to correspond

nave the garlands or cluster OF flowers

descent paillettes. 1t is really well to
pay the difference between this material
and the effective spangled nets, for the
latter, while not SO handsome, require
constant mendlng and altering to be
kept in proper condition
On the same order as the silk and
satin gowns are the handsome embroid-
cred crepe dresses which are so effec-
tive and so very serviceable There are
number Of new cOlorings that are ex-

these creDes are just as much in favor

there should really be a dress through
out. With sable and Chinchilla black

Tucked and Pleated Models shn Worn

Tucks and box pleats Of all varieties
can be had without number on the over
skirts. and the only fullness viii show
below the knees. No matter of what
model. whether plain or elaborate. a
walking skirt must flare out we'll about
the feet. The correct walking skirt is
anywhere from one 10 three inches OF
the ground, and a rainy day skirt is
still shorter. For skating the skirt need
not be cut eXaggeratedly short. as the
skates lift one up cOnsidera bly,, so that
the average walking skirt IS all right
for any purpose.
