with a band of white and the row Of
buttons.
An attractive sport suit of jersey
cloth is on straight loose lines, with
a collar that may be worn buttOned
closely about the throat or open in
sailor collar style. The wide cuffs
are fastened back with buttoned
flaps, similar TO the two that form
the closing of the front of the
bouse. The belt is studded with
nail heads, which gives a sort of
medieval touch to the gown.
One coat shown and called "Ce-
cile" may be described as both
smart and comfortable. 1t is
made of wool velours. The
wide collar may be buttoned
closely about the throat or thrown
back over the shoulders. The loose
sleeves are buttoned back upon the
wrists. The skirt of the coat is
gathered upon the upper part un-
der a wide. low belt which is fast
ened by two buttons upon the LETT
side. This is a good coat for auto
mobile wear. for it is long enough
TO cover the gown completely. 1t

used for a summer evening wrap.

This model is also reproduced in
white handkerchief linen for the

The skirt is either of white, rose
color or delft blue. The sleeves of
the blouse are long and gathered
into a cuff about three inches deep;
the plain round collar of white is
finished off at the neck by a small
bow.
A suit of white serge shows
closely plated skirt, mounted on

Another suit, which tle fashion
