able and makes pretty accessory for
wear on bright spring days. Choice OF
a new and smart color in the selection
of a spring coat will add thousand
per cent of style to any Of them.
The mode is set for bright hues In
spring coats. Big collars and big but

a springtime suggestion to coats IN
quiet colors, and it is not often that
buttons are inconspicuous.
