tant item for the girl who dances
through the season. 1t is no longer
fashionable to have them colored to
match the frock. France, by her per-
sistence, has ousted that idea in this
country. The new fashion saves
money and worry. One can buy mas
turtium gown, another in scarlet. an
other in French blue and find that the
yellowish flesh-coIored satin slippers
with stockings exactly matching are
proper accessories for each gown.
That is a comforting fashion.
If metallic slippers are worn they
should be as supple as satin ones.
Gold, as a color, is preferred to silver
this season. Buckles are not in the
first fashion. regardless of the ar

Beading done directly on the toe of
the slipper is better. provided it fol-
lows a dashing and decided pattern.
The strap slipper has followed the
tango one, as it Is was called, which
had satin ribbon inserted in eyelets
and passed around the ankles. That

ion. Straps are equally comfortable
