Fashions for You.

The West Virginia and Carolina
country, with bracing air and pine
bordered mountain walks, has an un-
deniable charm during the all too
brief interlude between snow flurries
and sultry summer days. There are
many who look forward to a few gay,
yet restful weeks spent at the resorts
in this vicinity as the most delightful
part of the year, and their stay, be it
ever so short, calls for the special type
of clothes which have become identi-
fed with between seasons" resorts.
The ideal wardrobe for this purpose
includes tweeds and jerseys, for the
mornings, and taffetas and silk crepes
or satins, for the afternoon and infor-
NAL dinner hour. Tweed suits are
more attractive than ever, and the soft
becoming hats of felt, leather, or
duvetine that can be turned almost
any shape, are frequently worn with
them and with wool scarfs of plain or
mixed colors. There is apparently no
limit to the color combinations in
tweed, and there are various mixtures
in which copper, green grey, or laven-
der predominant. Suits and hats of
contrasting shades, such as grey
tweed suit with flame color felt hat
or suit Of henna mixture with a hat
of brown leather, are exceedingly
smart.
For an unusually chilly day, there
are capes of heather mixture, with
military suggestion, to wear over ones
suit or with skirts and sweaters. They
are made of a jersey so heavy that it
has almost the quality Of cheviot.
Large collars of brushed wool make
becoming frame for the face and soft
en- the otherwise too-severe effect. An
unusual cape of this type is of heavy
white French flannel with a collar OF
flame color brushed wool, and worn
with a hat to match the collar, it makes
charming picture ON the links. Flan-
mel is particularly smart at. present,
and in q black and white check it makes
chic skirt to wear with a jacket
of light weight sports broadcloth.
Skirts of brown and tan checks with
brown coat or harmonizing sweaters
are also very attractive combinations
A smart type of sweater of light
weigh: wool in navy or henna, has
threads of gold or silver knotted
through the wool. The severely plain,
straight-acro neck-linc is still very
popular for sweaters, although many
models have the becoming v. neck
For morning wear on the golf-links,
the jersey and twceds predominate,
and they are frequently seen at the
tea hour, us well, although sometimes
they are discarded for the softer silks
or crisp taffetas. The new crepcs,
graceful and draping, and the taffetas,
bouffant and pert, each have their
charm and bring out the new features
of he spring silhouette. Crepe de
Chimes are seen in French grey, Etrus-
can red, and black and are equally
effective when made with the slightly
accentuatcd hip-line and the full round
skirt or with long princesse lines and
flowing, uneven drapery. Taffeta. al
most always black, depends largely
on tucks, cordings, and little ruffles of
itself for decoration, although some
times handmade flowers. aprons, and
tunics arc seen. The general effect Of
the skirts is longer and more gracefully
furl.
Nightfall and candle light bring
many charming models Of black satin,
invariably simple as to waist, but
draped and moro elaborate as to skirt.
An especially attractive model has q
CLINT of jet and soft draperies Of net
covered with chenille dots which seem
to dance at every movement.
