this country to accept new things IL
this line, becauae to them sueii
clothes do not always mean costumes
for games-far from it. More oftel
than not they carry no such idea,

A Paris dressnaker's conception
Of a sports dress, as portrayed in
a new model, consists of straigh'
pleated frock of cafe au lait colorsa
chiffon over which is worn a sleeve
less jacket of bronze-colored velvet
Innovations in our American
sports costumes appear in the uses
of embroideries often done IN
worsteds on rough woolens. Paris
is the center from which this idea
eminated, and the Parisienne doe
not confine her use of embroideries
OH such garments to those made Of
cloth, but frequently uses them Of
smart box coats Of fur, designed to
be worn with tweed skirts.

Trim Short Fur Coats
NOVELTIES launched by Nine
Jenny are short box coats of
fur, with band trimmings of lovely
embroidery done on bright-colored
cloth. The coats are lined with satin
to match the embroidery, and the

plicity and becomingness.
Another novelty launched by the
same maker is the short shoulder
cape and deep gauntlet cuffs o
astrakhan, to be worn with the heavy
wool street dress. The vest Of fur
is new and comfortable for motor

sheepskin, masauerading under
various names as petit-gris-lustre
zibeline Parisienne, agneau, etc, are
successfully used for these, as well
as for trimming purposes. The
