country wear. These are made in
white, colored or striped linens, rose

On the tennis courts, MILDLY
| blouses are still seen, their freedom
and comfort having won the heart of
sportswon1en. One shop on the avenue
devotes a side window. tucked in be-
tween two marble pillars, to rackets,

] blouses, slashed In front and laced,
I have sailor collars and cuff like hens;
they are made Of white linen, crepe
de Chine, wash silk and khaki cloth,
| the fabric of the soldiers uniforms,
an attractive tan in color and with
good wearing qualities.

! fabrics as pique, plain and in novel
stripes and bars, linen crash, khaki
tweed and herringbone mixtures are
shown in these skirts, which are
short and plain save for a lap closing
or patch pockets.
I Hats, too. have swagser style.
Panames appear in every possible
shape, from SLOUGH to stiff sailor,
with knitted silk bands made like the
knitted ties the men wear. There are
collapsible hemp straws and black
felts faced In color, convenient to

while rolling brimmed sailors of
grass staw in purple and white. and
black and white lend variety to the
styles; or you may have a bonny

white buckskin tie with rubber sole !
and stripings OF green or red leather, |
which serve as trimming, as well as
a stay for the flexible buckskin. One
house is featuring white buckskin

in such n manner that ii retains its
Wilderness in spite of wear. These
heelless ties and shoes are shown for
tennis. while walking ties and shoes
have heels about an inch high.
Along with the other garments, rid

attention. The new trouser and leg

at the side is a style adopted byl
Young girls. while older women favor
the skirt, for country wear. finished
with lap seam front and back, with
straps underneath for cross-saddle
