The Boys Suit

should be chosen with Just as
much care and sound reasoning as
fathers. In fact with more care,
for the wear it gets is more siren
uous and it will not stand it if il
is not well-made, 100 per cent
all-wool suit.
There are such suits for boys
Of 8 to Is years.
They are chemically tested all
pure wool and they are made in
the best possible manner-the
coats we'll lined and the trousers
lined throughout, with every seam
tapped.
Mixed cheviots, cassimeres and
navy blue wool serge are the ma
terials. And the coats are loosely
belted models with slash pockets.
Prices are $3.50 to $1S.75.

Women who like dainty
neckwear (and what woman
doesn't?) can't resist this love-
ly net neckwear-a whole case
full of it ranging from 81 for
a short back collar to $3.50 for
a vest. Rows or insets of lace,
puftings and hand embroidery

Gay, colored camisoles are

croeheted Sweaters Are Popular

Dear Madam-WOuld you kindly tell
me if silk sweaters will be in style
this spring and summer?
If they are, what color do you think
would be becoming to me?
l am fifteen years old and have dark
brown hair and brown eyes. Fairly
dark skin and not very much color.
YOUNG GIRL.
The most popular sweater so far this
year is the silk or wool one crochcted
instead Of knitted, but SO many people
had the knitted ones last year. | am
sure they will be worn great deal
this summer. From your description
of your coloring, | should say that
brown, tan, old blue. soft ,green, and
possibly old rose would all be becoming
to you. but, of course, you have to
judge for yourself just which one you
can wear best. There must be some color
IN which YOU ''specialize," and you
are the only one who can tell just
what that color shall be.
