The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1916-03-24
President of The Retail Merchants Association
Points Out Advantages Of Early Spring Shopping

hides. dyes, and chemicals are becoming as
scarce as the proverbial hens teeth. As
consequence there is great shortage of high
class merchandise in the apparel line, and so
those who desire the ultimate in quality had
best go shopping early.
1t is a physical impossibility to wait on
everybody in Washington in day or a week
and that is the consequence of delaying the
Easter shopping. 1t is so much more salts
factory all around if the buying public will do
their shopping earl now-and in the morn
ing hours if possible so that the shops cannot
on y give them the benefit of wide variety
from which to select but can supply service that
is impossible in last minute pick-me-up bar
gain rush.
Fittings and alterations require time and the
best results can only be secured by early selec-
ton.
The buying public should pattern after the
practice of the merchants in their purchases.
The successful merchant does not wait until the
last minute to buy his goods. He or his
representatives make careful and discriminating
selection months in advance of a season. That
is how they became successful. That expresses
preparedness
And SO, on its part. the public should come
to realization of this lesson and cooperate
in the program of preparedness" by doing
their spring and Easter shopping early.
Today is the best day. Tomorrow will be
just another day nearer Easter. but by all means
do it early and enjoy the very best that the
markets of the world aford-and that can al
ways be had in Washington.
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1916-03-24
Hosiery.

In popular priced lines. the hosiery runs
chiefly toward solid effects or modest
clockings. Besides the staple shades OF
tan, gray, blue, black and white, there
are few departures, these being green,
puppies, hello. champagne, Burgundy and
garnet.
White hose will be more popular than
ever as the season advances, but not the
plain whites SO much as tho ornamental
trimmings effects. White with bIa tx
clockinSs and white with other shades
for embroidery schemes are being dis
played with a strength that indicates a
certain demand Whites with polka dots
and hair-line stripes are also launched.
Other hosiery styles are the small two
toned. flaky effects. These are shown
in ABOUT the same shades mentioned
above In the solid tones. In these black
is chiefly the foundation color and the
flakes are brought out in the other men,
toned shades.
Striped hosiery is not so conspicuousIy
shown this season except in the higher
priced lines, and these run mostly toward
the accordion weaves

By DORIS DALE.

The unattractive child seen on the
Fashion and comfort have applied them
selves 50 that the juvenile garments are
designed with a view to becOmingness as
well as strict attention to the general
needs of the little tots as well as the
ha2pers.
Due allowance Is made for the lines
OF the growing figure and that there
should be sufficient freedom for the de-
msnds Of youthful energies. The ques-
ton Of selecting garb for the younger
set is really a consequential one. for it
is at the early period of feminiaity that
tine tastes are formed for either the ar
tistic and simple or for tawdry and I'M
harmonious inclinations.
The particular smart lines Of the grown
ups coats have been dcftIy transferred
to chiIdren's coats The flare effects, so
prominent in large garments, arc also
attained in the coats for the Younger
folks The FLAIR is produced by having
the fuIIness start from the shoulder or
having the fullness in the lower part Of
che coat which is cut in two sections.
Sailor collars. cape collars and the low
flat collars are used extensively. The
sleeves set in at the low shoulder line
the Bishop, and the flare effect sleeve
are particularly adapted for girls coats.
Pockets in novel forms are used.
Simple tailored coats of serge. gabar-
dimes and wOTsteds, sometimes combined

nearly all are kindred effects under eif.

tonishlng to note the very beautiful pat.
tern effects and color stones that are at
tsined In these textures and they really
solve the hitherto perpleIing problem OF
keeping the youngster cool and comfort
able as well as smart looking during
the torrid DAYS.
In wash suits for the little fellows
Oliver Twist, Shakespeare and vestes
are again shown this summer. but not
so strongly as new treatments in Rus
sian styles. Elton styles and a newcomer
called the Tommy Tucker style.
These Russian suits show shorter
coats than heretofore and many have
contrasting trimming effects IN belts and
Eton collars. The bishop collar is also
one OF the seasons novelties on the little
fellows wash suits. V-cut collars are
shown on the Elton suits with a sort Of
guimpe or dickey effect showing slight
ly above the point OF the V. These suits
have extra wide belts and loops.
The Tommy Tucker suits are very
similar to these except that the collar
rolls. there IL no gUlmpe and there Is a
laced front effect. The belts and loops
on these are also extremely wide.

than heretofore in the single-bressted
styles. and exceedingly wide in the dou-
styles. Belts also are wider
than formerly and some extremely smart
effects have belts fully three inches wide.
Trousers are both straight and
bloomer styles though the straight trou-
sers are showing more favor than they
have in several seasons. The bloomer
trousers are not quite SO full as in pre-
vious seasons
In fabrics, cassimeres, tweeds and
'cheviots are more popular than the
worsteds and serges and the patterns
are running toward small mixed effects.
small plaids and narrow stripes. Solid
colors and large Overplaids are shown
largely in the higher-priced lines. as the
dye market necessitates smaller effects
where economy in price is TO be consid-
cred.
Many splendid effects are being shown
in Palm Beach cloth suits for boys.
There Is a great variety OF fabric ef-
fects. and wesves in sheer cloths for
midsummer wear. Palm Beach cloths,
Sumate cloths, Keepkool cloths. tropic
toys. Panama cloths Mandslsy cloths
and many other fabrics are launched and

coat. tafreta, failles and gros de Londrcs
arc developed in novel designs.
\ black and white checked coat, which
has Incorporated in it most of the domi-
nant style features, is Of black and white
checked material with full back and
front and flat panel on the side. The
skirt falls below this in full ripples. A
short narrow belt confines the fullness
in back and is fastened with a point to
the panel by means OF gray pearl but
tons. Over the turned-back reveres, cape
collar and cuffs OF the check are white
embroidered linen ones.
Spring fashions for misses include

Overplaids, white gabardine, Palm Beach

tissues and the more formal modes for
afternoon wear in chic youthful styles
of faiIIe silk, Georgette and taffeta.
Interest in sport styles set a new
pa &c in juvenile smartness. Not the least
important are the new sport models, the
best of which in the Norfolk style with
broad plaits, and peplum which slightly
ripples over the hips. The skirts arc
usually full and devoid of trimming.
The smock waist of straight. loose cut,
closely following the smOCks of Paris ar
lists. are much favored. White hand

Stripes in varying widths and color COM
binations are sought for by the disCrim-
mating buyer.

and striped gabardines are very much
of the season.

climbers. 1t is a mighty clever idea
and should take well. although a.
first it may look a little odd to us
This Alpine hat has quite an extreme
crown, being very high with a slight
fedora crease. The brim is very narrow,
which in contrast to the crown, makes an
unordinary appearance and something a
bit different than we have seen.
There will be almost a total absence
of telescope shapes. Fedoras are the
thing. absolutely. The fedora crease
will be worn by both conservative and
radical dressers. 1t is the one thing
that we can say with certainty will
be shown by every halter.
Like in the derbies. there will be
a very few fancy bows. They will near
ly all be very plain and worn on the
sides. Some of the bands will be of a
different color than the rest OF the hat
but most Of them will be of the same
shade.

dressers, one may be sure to hear a

derbies are a little passe. There will
be a few tobacco browns shown. but
the majority will be submitted in
plain black.

will begin to make their appearance.

styles that will be seen is the Alpine
