Juvenile Styles

The secret is out. Every little
girl wants to be just like mother
or big sister as far as matters of
apparel are concerned. That's
why this showing is replete with
straight-line models; waists that
blouse and even panels. Narrow
sashes have taken the places of
the immense affairs formerly fav-
ored. And, if one is small, there
is almost no end to the variety of
silks and 'woolens one may choose
for ones Frocks. Almost all the
little Coats hang straight, whether
they have Jokes, belts or neither.
The dressier models take velvets
and broadcloths while the simpler
models are fashioned Of bolivia,
serge, silvertone and corduroy.

Autumn, but there are any num-
Der of gauntlet, slip-on and NOUS
quetaire models to choose from.

Fall Suits

Fur blends SO perfectly with the
fabric in many Of the smartest
Suits of Autumn that one wonders
at the wizardry of the joyous com
bination. Fabrics, for the most
part, are Of that soft texture which
one instinctivcly associates with
duvetyns, suede cloths, chameleon
cord and cloths of that type But
they are not all fur trimmed.
Some are quite plain, as far as
trimming is concerned, but en-
chanting in the cleverness of their
lines. Others are handsomely en-
broidered in self tone or elabo-
rately enhanced by panels and
