by the middle of January we were
quite familiar with them. They are
more Indispensable than ever to the
southern tourist. whose time Is sup
posed to be spent out of doors in the
pursuit of some sort of sport. Judging
from the color and rich appearance of
some of these new skirts the most
popular resort sport is the wearing of
good looking clothes.
The woolen skirts are mostly In
large plaids in which very soft and
quiet colors are slsillfully combined.
There are some smart black and white
combinations among them and some in
which black and white plnid stripes
alternate with soft colors in stripes.
These are made up with inverted
plaits. like the skirt shown at the left

that said, $50 away-go away-go

to me.
An instant later I saw face and
recognized Mrs. Delario. Then the face
was gone and the hand said, go

Monsieur, seeing me standing, ap-
parently interested in something hap
penlng upstairs, pulled the shade out

liberately to cross the street and sig
