wash fabrics this season is this tennis
dress of Alice blue linen. 1t is in very
truth jumper, for the waist portion is
slipped on over the head and drawn In
about the waist with a tape run through
narrow casing. The cutout neck and
the cape-like sleeves are finished with an
embroidered buttonhole scallop In white

form and trimmed only at the top Of the
collar and on the cuffs with marrow

gracefully outward. A narrow stitched
belt, the pointed ends of which cross II

hat is worn nothing could be prettier
than a rolled brim sailor OF white linen
with broad crown bow Of lawn. Golden
brown kid oxfords with low heel ana ex-
tension sole are not alone the smnrtesr
footwear for the tennis court, but like
wise the most practical and comfortable.
