7 THE smart winter resorts you
\, may usually tell the seasoned
visitors, those who have for some time
made practice of spending the later
winter weeks at these southern resorts
from those Who are doing so now for the
first time, from the way that a cold
wave takes them. The experienced ones
are prepared with suits and coats that
are warm and appropriate, while those
who are green in this winter resort
visiting are caught unprepared They
have trunks full of organdie frocks,
satin coats. summer furs and tattcta day
frocks. They have only lightweight
sport suits and their coats are of the
thinnest tricolette or wool jersey.
And usually one good cold snap does
visit even the warmest Of the resorts
This season it was especially bitter al
one or two of the smartest of the re-
sorts. And many were the resolutions
on the part of those who We're caugh

=, for the woman who needs to buy a SUI
to wear during late winter days an
those of early spring. Tweed is yer
smart at the present time and the twee
suit has an air of distinction that make
its high price well worth while. To th
Q suit there is q scarf attached that give

the same tone, with angora buttonholin
