TENNIS COSTUME TAKES ON TROUSERS AND
SMOCK TURNS INTO SPORTS COAT

Many novelties in sports clothes
have been introduced in the past few
weeks. With the coming Of warm
weather, the minds of both young and
old naturally turn to the great out Of
doors, and Fashion is not slow to take
up the cue of the golf ball and-tennis
racket. Stores have caught the spirit,
and sweaters and other sports para
phernalia have taken up their stand.
1t would seem each store is striving
to outdo its neighbor in featuring
something distinctly new and surpris-
ing in the way Of sports apparel.
A TrOusered Costume for Tennis
One house offers a novelty tennis
costume with trousers. Already mum
ber of these have been sold end the

the summer. The blouse is cut in one,

ton of a bathing suit, with the bloom
ers longer and left free. The skirt is
attached to wide belt and buttons on
separate. The advantage ct the suit
| 10 obvious. With the trousers made
of the same material as the skirt, they
are almost invisible wsen the skirt
blows out in the wind, and, aside from
this fact, they give a freedom Of ac-
ton which is impossible with petit
coats wrapping around the feet. One
woman said she was buying the dress
to wear around the house. 1t is easy
to understand the comfort of such a
costume, especially for house cleaning
times, when climbing step-ladders and
like occupations are the order OF the
day. Another woman who is outfit
ting girls for camp-life, has ordered
the costume for every member OF the
party. She explained that when they
were around he camp she intended let
ting them wear the trousers, like over
alls, without the skirts.
Bright wall-papered cretonnes, also
Oriental black-and-wh:te patterns are
used for these dresses, with collar and
cuffs of white Swiss or organdy. In
the less expensive models, linen and
chambray are substituted. 1t is real
| ly surprising how charming the effect
| is in these materials, with a touch of
white in the collar and cuffs.
Calico Follows Craze of Cretonne
In many instances, calico takes the
place of cretonnes, which have been
SO extensively favored for outing ap-
parel. The very oldest of the old-time
patterns are revived. The quaint fig
ured reds our great -grandmoth-
ers wore, the bright daffodil yellows,
the crisp blues are all there, as light
| in weight and cool as ever. These quail
| tiles in the calico are an advantage
over the cretonnes. In fact, some Of
the prettiest of the cretonne patterns
have been duplicaed in the calico that
the effect may be gained without the
weight.
One of the old-time reds is made up
in a MILDLY style for tennis costume
What a contrast the frock will make
among the white dresses! A speciality
shop is showing a dainty afternoon
dress of yellow in peplum style, with
parasol to match; and there is an old
blue crinoline frock with waist gath
cred below a yoke, skirt full and white
crochet ball-buttons for trimming.
Simple as these dresses sound, they
are not what you would call inexpen-
sive, unless perchance, you make them
yourself. They are few and far be-
tween, exclusive in the true sense Of
the word. At the pretentious homes
up the Hudson, at the Casino at New
lport-these are the places where the
calico is found.
Shocked Sports Coats

appeals will welcome the latest novel

white checker-board and diamond
checks. Hand-smocking, in effective
ly blended coloring, adds decidedly
new touch at the wrist and below the
yoke at the shoulder.
There were some charming new
models shown on the Avenue the 9TH
er day, quite eciipsing the cretonne
coats, the bIazer-striped flannels and
the beach coats of tan toweling. One
was soldat blue, bordered in old gold
at the front, with cuffs and collar to
match; with the shocking done in the
same shade of wool. One of rose-red
had Grecian border in blue at the
lower edge and was shocked in dark
blue, while brilliant green was COM
bined with white. To all outward ap-
perances, they ere the garden smocks,
a trifle shorter and beltcd it is true;
but, nevertheless, with the same
quaint air that goes so charming
ly with the cretonnes, calicoes and
novelty printed pique skirts.
Bryn Mawr College Blouses
We have Bryn Mawr College to
thank for the sweater-blouse. 1t was
here that the fad originated; these
blouses are cross between waist
and a sweater. They are cut on the
lines of the regulation sailor and are
made of soft Italian silk. This silk
has high sheen and is somewhat sim
liar in appearance to lightweight
silk Jersey material. The blouse
are about the length of a MILDLY, made
with coat closing at the front and q

outside of the skirt, according to fam
cy, and are finding favor for riding,

the summer. Emerald green is pop

stripes, checks and pastel shades

Despite the apparent efforts of the
Board of County Commissioners to
squat on the main highway of agricul-

Henderson county wants a demon

that the county is too poor to afford

Pennsylvania county wants a dem
onstrator and has been wanting one
for a long time, and we understand
