SHINY DAZZLING ATTIRE
TO GREET SPRING GIRL
By Margaret Robe

written for the United Press.)
NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-To be shiny
at the seams seems to be the correct
caper or Spring attire. In fact not
only seams ashine will be seemly but
your costume in toto from the top of
your oilcloth hat to the toe of your
patent leather shoes must CLEAN with
a high light polish.
Hats that are not of oilcloth have
their straw surface brilliantly lacqu-
cred or are of glazed satin or of grass
cloth with lustre finish. Glazed
satin ribbons are used for trimmings.
Indeed the chapeau that isn't glossy
isn't finished.
For suits and frocks satins, shiny
taffetas and other fabrics that have
been treated with a peculiar lacquer
process are the ones the designers
have taken shine to for their Spring
time offerings. These glazed and
lacquered materials are by no means
stiff or cumbersome but light and
supple as they are lustrous and SHIN
merry.
Many of the smartest little taffeta,
serge and tricotine models show Law
ish trimming of oilcloth in the form
of landings, patch pockets, appliqued
designs and buttons. Fancinating
accessories of the shiny black oilcloth
embroidered and stitched in grey yarn
come in sets of hand bag, belt and
hat to match for the maid addicted
to sport attire.
Combinations Of red and blue are
very good this season and many is
the serge dress that is resplendent
with bands of bright red leather
stitched at distinctive spots upon its
surface where they will give the most
chic effect. Red flannel is another
smart fabric for the touch of scarlet
trimming so much in demand and so
that it may have its full quota of shin
mess it is flecked and embroidered in
golden threads. There is something
ElmOst martial in this dashing combin
nation of blue and gold and red that
subtly suggests the military uniforms
of our very best little circus bands.
Probably this is why this vivid red
and gold establishment is applied
mostly as banding, ?
All kinds of glittering jewellery adds
to the general shininess of milday's
Spring getup. Bakers dozens of
bracelets which are glistening band
of brilliants adorn each arm, dangling
earrings, jeweled bauble bobbine
on gem incrusted chain and severa
stunning rings besides the inevitable

crops are hemp, sugar cane, cocoanuts.
coffee, tapioca and pineapples. Lum-
Der is also an important industry.
There are hundreds Of thousands ef
acres of land lying idle in the Philip
pines, which have a greater area Of
fertile land than Japan-this In spite
of the fact that the population Of the
Philippines is 100000 while that Of
Japan is around 55,000,000. There is
every reason to believe that some day
the Philippines will have a population
as large as that Of Japan today. The
Filipinos are the only Christian people
in the orient, and their young men are
working night and day to prepare
themselves for the responsibility Of
citizenship in the Philippine Republic.
