stream there is a sharp turn in the
road, with a side hill slanting towards
the river. The lights on the car were
in poor shape and the machine was not
equipped with chains. The roads were
very slippery from the snow and rain

The Monticellonian., 1919-04-04

There are several styles in suits that have almost equal chances for popu- larity this spring and the only way to determine which is the best choice is to try them on. Straight, short coats. opening over vestees, with narrow plain skirts, are universally admired, but they are not universally becoming If they were there is no doubt but that this type of suit would soon lead all the rest. The test of becomingness must settle the question of choice; no other consideration is so important. But there is quite a wide range in styles to choose from, so that every woman may be confident of finding the particular one that suits her best
 One of the aight-eoat-and-n skirt models is shown in the picture and it is an extreme example of this mode, with a skirt rather too narrow to be practical. But to the woman who aspires to look slender il will cer- tainly make strong appeal. for the skirt is long as well as narrow. The very thin woman cannot consider il.
The Monticellonian., 1919-04-04

The coat is q pretty model with three wide tucks at the bottom and it opens over waistcoat of plain tricolette that is very smart. It has n wide turn over collar and row of large bone buttons down the left side.
 Braid and buttons decorate the pret- ty suit that Is shown built on entirely different lines from its companion in the picture. II has plain skirt wide enough to be comfortable for walking The coat is made with long side bodies and short panel al the center of the back to which gathered skirt portion iS added Three groups of braid, with three rows in each group ending in bone buttons. dispose of the braid and button decoration In neat, tailored fashion, on the panel. The same deco ration on the skirt portion ends in but tons on the side pieces and this plan is followed out on the front. For those who do not like braid or want Il change from it the styles offer cross bar and other arrangements of pin tucks and groups of wider tueks in the material
