Guitar Wear.

Not for many seasons have coats
displayed so much variety.
There are mannish coats OF English
tweeds and dainty. feminine wraps Of
silk. satin or even chiffon to protect
miiady from the summer breezes. The
sportswoman wears coat whose
chief feature is utility. and II is usu-
ally a garment built on the lines Of

est models made Of English tweed the
full. faring lines are confined about
the waist with belts.
Patch pockets. raglan sleeves and
turned down collars accentuate the

this type the outdoor woman will
wear a Panama hat with a band OF
checked or striped ribbon
Another popular material for sports
coats is "escorto." which is a clever
combination of silk and wool. and be-
cause OF its wonderful sheen Is. in
many instances. preferred to the
homely tweeds.

In fashions the touch of black is a
recognized addition to a color scheme.
The same Is true of embroidery.
Many a centerpiece or scarf that
lacks tone may be improved by out
lining the color design with black.
This is especially recommended on
the heavy linen and scrim covers
where brilliant hues appear unfin-
ished or need bringing cut.
