in evidence at the spring opening of

Plaut & Co S store today. The show
rooms We're attractively decorated with
ported azaleas and other plants, palms
and Boston terms. But the principal
decorations, of course, were the new
spring models of gowns and hats.
One of the natty tailored suits for
summer wear was Of violet linen,
simply trimmed with stitched bands of
the material and quantities of self
covered buttons. The skirt shows W
front plaits. and is trimmed with a
wide bias fold of linen, ending at the
front gore seams.
Very attractive is a model of rose
color linen, garnished with lace inser-
ton dyed just 20 match. The coat has
very VIDE lapels, and fastens with two
large buttons, from which the fronts
are cut away sharply toward the back.
