kIO wonder the devotees of motoring AS are braving the coldest weather, They may envelop themselves from crown to toe in cold-proof coats having hoods attached made of the same ma terial as the coat The fur fabrics that have had so great a vogue this season have been developed in pat terms especially suited to midwinter motor coats. These pushes are used also for lining coats of other fabrics, and are as warm as skins
 Fetching and unusual is the coat of leopard plush pictured here The youthful motorist looks as cozy as @ kitten in it. It is a long straight gar ment of the simplest outlines. comfort ably roomy. The sleeves and yoke are cut in one, and the skirt part allows plenty of room in walking,
 A broadtail plush is used to make deep plain cuffs. and as an inlay on a small neckpiece that fastens about the throat.

Discard Small Turhan-

In Paris the leaders of fashion have discarded the small turban hat for the larger models of white satin These stunning hats appear in a wide vari- ety of shapes with gracefully rolling brims or brims which flare more on one side than the other The favor iJe. however, is the wide, straight brimmed sailor, smoothly covered with white satin of a good quality, These are trimmed with a simple bow of white satin, the ends of which are sometimes fringed Fantasies of plu- mage appear on a few models but the majority are simply trimmed with the satin or mOire
 The crowns of these hats are rather low, and the tops are ununed and scantily gathered about the edge.
