FORECAST OF FASHIONS
FOR EARLY SPRING

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.--There Is
something delightfully."- exciting about
the first spring clothes, even II they
and designed for the exclusive use
of those fortunate beings en- route for
the land of fruit blossoms and per-
petual spring. The materials this year
are especially fascinating, for this is
to be season of color, and the. soft,
cool tones of the new blues, mauves.
apple greens and rose pinks that are
to reign this spring are quite ire
sistible All the old textures seem to
have doomed out in new colors. and
then there are so many new mate
rails also that the task of just what
to select for each gown is difficult,
indeed, for the woman who cannot
purchase as fancy leads her every new
dress length that happens to charm.
1t Is not at all a bad plan at this
time of year to purchase a house gown
that will serve for the few weeks be-
fore spring has actually arrived for
such Lenten festivities as demand
smart high gown, and which will then
be ready for the entertainments OF
the Easter season.
Among the textures to he recon-
mended for this type of dress are the
marquisettes in both plain and figured
patterns. the figured foulards, the
voiles, the silk crepons. and then for
slightly more elaborate wear, the f'g-
ured and Powered chiffon cloths and
chiffons, and the changeable silks.
Figured Fabrics.
The various Powered and figured
materials Of transparent quality. such

made with a suggestion of tunic

silk or satin. The foulards, on the
other hand. are draped In themselves,
but the silk is cieyerly handled. SO
that there shall he no fulness about
the feet and ankles. The satins and
satin finished silks win he extremely
smart for coat and skirt costumes for

house gowns as heretofore. The DIFF

celIent investments as a means OF

For suits, wide silk braid is once
more favorite trimming. On most
dark colors black braid is preferable,
