BY GLORIA SWANSON.

I have never been able to tolerate,
much less desire, one Of those knitted
sport dresses the shops have been ex-
plotting. They bulk where they should
fit snugly, cling where they should be
loose and look altogether like too much
sweater to me- and besides that, l think
they are unfeminine and haydenish.
But somehow this spring l seem to
feel different about them. don't know
whether it is that they are better made
but l think it is because they are being
worn with delightful fri1y little white
collars.
And the other day I saw some worn
with huge pendants. Really the pen
dant and the collar seemed to take off
all the curse and make them anything
but tomboyish.
In fact, this one I saw looked really
feminine and charming. I shall make
1t my next purchase and tuck 1t away
in my vacation trunk.
The dress itself was made OF soft gray
wool, the skirt knitted like the long
blouse with a stripe of dropstitch. 1t
had long sleeves to protect your arms
from sunburn and a narrow sash to max
the waistline trim.
A deep V neck which would slip over
your head was completely hidden by a
handkerchief linen collar and a huge
blue pendant on a heavy blue slip cord.
The collar was polka dotted by ap-
pliqueing little circles of linen by hand.
and the pendant was lovely. An
