MEMS SINGLES ARE
BEGUN IN TOURNEY
First Days Play in Columbia
Clubs Tennis Matches Is
Successful.

Going on the principle that "a bad be-
ginning makes a good ending" the Co
lumbia Country Clubs first annual tennis
tournament. which was started yesterday.
should be a very successful one. a. II
was originally scheduled to begin Monday
and has been postponed ever since on
account Of rain or wet courts.
A great deal was accomplished yester-
day in the mems singles-the only class
started-the preliminary round being COM
pleted. the first round nearly so, and the
second round broken into.
One of the surprises of the day was the
easy victory of W. II. Ronsaville over
A. Y. Leech jr. in the preliminary round.
|S-1 and o. Leech was picked by many
20 reach the semi-fnals at least. but his
work was badly off color and this is large
form in the consultations he should win
those defeated yesterday. Ronsaville
showed unexpected strength and may
prove to be the dark horse Of the
tournament. He is a good all-round
player and shows quite little speed.
Another good match occurred in the
first round, when r. Robinson and Samuel
Herrick got together, the latter winning
s-6 and 6-1. The opening set was a
hummer and could not be decided until
fourteen games had been played.
On any number of occasions Robinson
looked to have the set, but each time his
opponent managed to settle down in time
to save the day. and 1t was not until the
score had reverted to deuce twice that
Herrick was able to take enough consec-
utive games to take 1t. Herrick was the
stronger player and was able to keep up
his game in the second set, while Robin
son experienced 2 let-doWn. with the re-
suit that Herrick took the second and
deciding one In quick time.
OF the twenty matches decided yester-
day. but three called for the third set,
Tom r. Heath figuring in two and p O.

Donald Woodward in the preliminary
round, l-6, Ga and g.. and from A. B.

Black Evening Waistcoats.

1t seems that evening fashions in the
accessories Of dress are veering toward
a preponderance of black For many
years the white waiscoat has been an
integral part OF ceremonious clothes, and
even though dropped for afternoon dress
it has chung TO evening dress and become
a sort Of badge of 1t. OF late. however,
the black waistcoat has been inching its
way into favor. and while its use is not
yet general. the best dressed coterie has
taken 1t up While the wane of the
white waistcoat would despoil evening
dress of much OF it's traditional "snowi-
ness yet. after all. black is the richest
and most distinguished of colors-the very
refinement of refinement" Black waist
coats of the same fabric as the evening
coat are not tolerated. but black waist
coats Of dull silk stuffs are new and
smart for cerem onious dress. These are
cut of both smooth and rough nap fabrics
and may be as simple or as elaborate as
personal taste wills. A waistcoat typical
of the new mode has sattn-bound edges
down the front opening and. like all
fashionable waistcoats, must fit with
''hour-glass' tightness

Full Dress Watch Chains.

The practice of wearing watch chains
with evening clothes Is well established
They are seldom gold, which is a trifle
too garish. but platinum Often a simple
ribbon of fine silk serves as chain. and
1t may stretch half way or all the way
across the v7aistcoat. Now and then the
ribbon is worn diagonally, from upper to
lower pocket. Platinum chains set with
tiny pearls are extremely good form and.
to be sure, expensive. Chains of solid
pearls to match the shirt studs and cuff
links are also approved. This innovation
is sponsored by Partisan jewelers.. Like
the breast coat pocket to hold ones hand
kerchief, the watch chain is sensible and
useful with evening dress. Rightly
chosen, 1t may even be an ornament.

Sticks Must Be Substantial.

To carry a walking stick is not an af-
fectation, although the stick itself may
be one. if it is too slender. too ornate
and too "dandyfied.'' Sticks agreeably
solve the problem OF what shall I do
with my hands?" Moreover they are an
aid to walking with uprightness and re-
pose. Bamboo is a wood that Is much
in vogue just now Partridge, snake
wood and the other familiar woods are
used as much and are as correct, for
there is no settled fashion about 1t. The
only thing that fashion ordainS is that
ones stick be substantial and look as
though II were really to use. instead of
being a slim and "switchy'' absurdity.

The Braided Frock Coat.

The dawning vogue of the braid-trim-
med frock coat was foretold in these
columns. Introduced by Bond street
tailors in London as the heir presump-
tive of the braided cutaway, it has cross
ed to the states and is being sponsored
by the ''ultrafsts.' The air of this coat
depends both upon the way it Is cut and
the way 1t is worn. 1t needs a tall, well
set-up man to carry it on although the
manner of its cutting can give almost
anybody much Of the coveted slim-and-
trim look
The waist line of the braid-trimmed
frock is set high. thus bestowing a full
sweep of skirt. The shoulders are close
clipped. the hips are arched and the
lapels roll softly. The waistcoat. too. is
braid bound and has a collar. The coat
usually fastens with single button
just enough to give an anchorage" to
the front of the garment. This new
frock is cut Of the same stuffs as the
braided cutaway. which. however. it will
by no means elbow aside. The cutaway
is as correct as ever for occasion since
the braid-trimmed frock is so extreme
fashion that its adoption by the gener-
atty of men cannot come overnight

Motoring Modes.

Fashion is scarcely a factor to be
reckoned with in motoring. The para
mount consideration is comfort. Hence,
whatever is comfortable is sure to be
fashionable. Moreover, motoring gar
ments and accessories are always chang
ing. and there is such a multiplicity of
them as to baf1e classifying. One motor
cap unites two essential belongings Of
the sport, cap and goggles, into one.
There's less risk of mislaying ones
glasses and no need Of pocketing them
when alighting from the car between
stops. Motor dust coats are made in all
sorts Of fabrics, such as linen, alpaca,
pongee. Shantung and waterproof silk.
Then there are wooden, leather and rub
Der coats uncounted and uncountable.
The only rule about motoring dress worth
needing is to wear garments suited to
the weather and to the length and char
acter of the run. For rough trips, wear
thick, rough clothes that shed dust and
rain. For short trips. wear any sort of
comfortable clothes that give protection.
