In the bungalow, more than in any
other type of house, there is the pos
sibility of producing effects which VIII
meet the desire of n person whose mind
is definitely set upon some novel fea-
ture which is to predominant through
out the scheme of architecture en-
ployed in the house design. There is
such an endless array of little tricks
which may be brought into play for
the purpose of establishing distinctive
ness in each particular bungalow de-
sign that it is a radical mind which
cannot find satisfaction in n of the
many combinations of details which
are at the disposal of the designer.
Since the designer of bungalows is
not hampered, in the true type, by the
necessity of tUcking rooms under the
root or of providing a large attic space

that did not represent much OF an
outlay in money.
But today the prophecy that sport
clothes will rule for the next four
months brings a look of ecstasy into
the faces of all those who sell wom-
ems apparel. for along this path lie
riches.
Sport clothes are de luxe tn s season.
No woman will content herself with
such costume; she will buy as long
as her money holds out. This is the
reason for the smile that the dress
makers and the shopkeepers wear.
Each week is taxed to its utmost in
turning out a dozen or more new sug-
gestions. and for all such bait there
is not only nibble but a good sized
bite. Women who have INDUCED in
one tailored suit for the spring. which
they intended 10 make serve through
the autumn, are buying four suits
with much paraphernalia and many
accessories TO match.
Shops that heretofore only sold
sporting materials now add sporting
clothes and side by side with tennis
rackets and balls are dozens of tennis
costumes and with golf sticks and
saddles are shown gowns. suits and
boots for these open air recreations.
An interesting psychological segment
of this plan of dress is the combination
Of inglo-Saxon activity with French
proclivity. There has never been any
reason TO teach the American woman
the value of the open air: it is her
British woman. Ever since her ances-
tors stopped Telling trees to make log
