Proper Styles In Mems Shoes

and distasteful" But there will be
very few shoes worn this spring that
will not have cloth uppers.
The color combinations or contrasts
(Which word would best express it, are
more radical and lively than they were
even last fall. There will be such novel
effects as white uppers over black, gray
uppers over black, salt and pepper up
pers over black, tobacco brown over
black, champagne shades over black,
gray over tans, tobacco brown over .tans,
etc.
For many seasons the lace shoe has
been worn almost exclusively by the
best dressers, but for early spring wear
the button shoe has overtaken that lead
ership. This applies only to the cloth

Silk and linen mixtures will be worn
to a great extent. They come in rich
color and pattern ideas and wear much
better than pure silks.
The. Mushroom plated shirts will
most certainly be included in the stocks
of all the leading haberdashers. They
are far heater and better made gar
ments this spring than those first put
on display. Their prices when first
shown were fabulous, but they have
been produced this year to sell at as
low as 81.
The Mushroom shirt Is shown in a
great array Of lively color and patterns,
while Of course there will be many
sedate effects on display. There are
plaids of every variety-there are wide
stripes, narrow stripes and cross stripe
novelties-there are the staple black
and white goods and rich shades of blue
and tango color.

will be shown in stripes of every de-
seription and in various solid colors.
Negligee shirts are here in May
unique styles. They come with soft and
plated bosoms, with French turn-back,
reversible, and stiff cuffs, and some few
are shown with detachable cuffs.
Neghgee shirts are shown in great
variety of colors and patterns, typical
of the spring and summer seasons.
There are stripes of all kinds, dotted
goods and many glazing colors.
There has been a novel cross plated
shirt created for this season that the
critical dresser is sure to give hearty
welcome. 1t is not entirely new, hav-
ing been shown for the two previous
seasons, but it has been perfected by
slillful cutters and launders better than
before.
The leading shirt fabric for spring Is,
of course, silk, and there will be great
many made of silk and linen mixtures,
woven madras, percales, cassimeres and
light fannels. There will be no end of
colors and color combinations, stripes
plaids and cross weaves.

When society turns out on dress pa
rade this spring we may expect sensa-
tions in the line of neekwear. Perhaps
never before have such clever ideas
been originated-such startling or far
ing colors been displayed
Wide end searfs will be shown ex-
elusively-wider than ever in fact. They
are made of silks in rich eolors, In wide
and narrow cross striped patterns and
in great many flower and polkadot
effects.
The Batwig or the Bow tie, as it is
generally known, is again a favorite
style for spring. It is trifle shorter
and wider than heretofore and is shown
in lively patterns and plain colors. A
novel Batwig style is the one with open
ends of contrasting colors.
Full dress and Tuxedo scarfs are
shown a bit wider this season than be-
fore. Many of the full dress scarfs have
narrow edgings of black, and the Tux
edo scarfs have narrow edgings of white
or silver gray.
The knitted scarfs have seen their last
DAYS Of popularity for while at least
They have been on their way out for
several seasons, but manufacturers triej

wide end styles. Mr.. Consumer objected

Custom lasts are shown mainly with
plain stitched tips, although many OF
the higher price shoe dealers are includ

Rubber soled shoes have not the
bright outlook for popularity they had

main objection to rubber soles is the
heat they contract.
Elkskin soles that. few manufac-

promise to be shown TO a great extent
this season. They are extremely light
and cool, they are wear-resistipg and

A clever innovation is the straw soled
shoe, designed for sporting wear. The
sole Is made of matted straw, woven
firmly and are as light as a feather on
the feet. They will be used by many
for tennis and golf.
All cloth high shoes and oxfords that
were popular about five years ago prom
Use to reappear this spring. They will
be shown in various shades of gray in
the fat custom lasts. They are very
neat in appearance and extremely light,
cool and comfortable.
White canvas shoes that were re-

Vitality

Vitality is an inherent urgency
which drives a man TO performance:
something without him beckons or
drives, and he responds. and in rare
minds the essence of that response is
genius. Without vitality the best
trained mind is a dull tool blunder-
ing and bluffing in an emergency,
and wanting a capacity to discern
some element in the great trilogy-
time, place and power. Work is the
measure Of vitality. After all, a man
is what he does. And what he does
is his work, or should be. The world
has no time 20 explore the mind for
good intentions. InStinctively il
knows that if the intentions are fight
ing good they will demand an express
sion in behavior, and get il. And the
power that thrusts them out of q
man into the world of usefulness is

Again this season we find the haber-
dsshery problem presented TO as in an
entangled, jumkled-up, confused form
problem that haberdashers must slowly
and cautiously solve.
Every season finds manufacturers
busy creating new sensations-sueh a
mass Of ideas that the retail haber-
dasher must 'watch his step" lest he
be left with his shelves loaded when the
time for his inventory sets in.
II is a precarious business. "What
does the consumer wantfV is the inter
rogation in the minds Of every furnish.
ing goods buyer. Does he want some
thing a bit radical or is he leaning to
ward conservatism
But who kDowsf Everything must be
tried before we can determine what the
Fashion Beau Brummels Of the present
season are going to approve.
Those who are IN a position 20 know
predict this 20 be an "all-silk" haber-
dashery spring. Every branch Of haber-
dashery will put forth articles of silk
silks of every quality. Silk shirts, silk
underwear, silk hosiery, silk gloves, etc,
without limit.
First and foremost in Importance is
the item Of shirts The fastidious
dresser, IL is believed, will be more
painstaking than ever in the selection
Of his shirts. The waistcoats, as was al
ready noticeable last fall, are cut much
lower than they have been for several
seasons, bringing the shirt into prom
inence
There win be silk shirts of every kind
and quality They will sell as low as
$3.50, but the advisability Of buying
silks of this quality cannot be vouehed
for. The best dressers will again take
20 silk of heavier qHalities-those that
give long wear and satisfaction.
