Is another bit of art. for It need not be high. It can open and lay back over the shoulder line with the same ease and grace that it uses in folding SnuglE about the throat. Again, the waist line says eloquent words for the survival of that long. moyen-uge treat ment. This time it is done in clev- panel at front which becomes d wide, soft belt further down.
 The hat on this figure is one of the later ones created in Paris. II is made ot black satin and has. by way of touch of trimming. fringe of fur all about the edge of the upturned brim. The manner of that brim's turn iS d note of newness; the black satin hat has already reached these parts as a leader in the seasons headgear.
 Cling to One-Piece Frock.
 The French are still clinging to the little one-pece frock which they pull and push and tuck in until it becomes gown marvelously suitable to the in dividuat concerned. Several women may be gathered together in Paris each wearing practically the same model, but so great is the French apti- tude for Suiting the gown to the indi- ridual that no one would suspect their trocks of being cut over the same pat tern. They have a way of blousing the thing or letting it hang straight to 'fNfl figure. and in this way they manage to achieve really beautiful effects with practically nothing Cor we would call 1t nothing) to work with.
 There is a feeling that the skirts for spring will be longer, due to the fact l that some of the best designers in Paris are showing gowns with skirts made along quite full lines. The sil- houette is kept straight through all l changes, but the full skirt is becom- ing daily more sure of its right in the l scheme of modern styles.

Just about now there are so l many of them to be seen that the eff ! feet Is rather bewildering, but there
 is one. characteristic which they all
 have ill cOmmon--that they are quite | simple in all their lines and details.
 If they diverge at all from that stand. l ard then they must necessarily leave the class of the very smart attire. Sim l piicity is the keynote of the season s 1 styles. and this standard has become 1 so thoroughly established that de parture from the rules ard regulations ! may be claSSeG as an impOssihility ! Many of these duvetyn models are l seen in the tan and brown shades,
 verging all the way from the lightest tones to those that are darF enough
 to suit the tastes of the most conserv-
 ative dressers. There is strong tend,
 ency to trim these frocks with touches
 of brilliant color, but the distribution
 of color is an intricate procedure, and
 unless it is done just right, there is
 no excuse for it at all
 Worn With Fur Jackets.
 Usually duvetyn frocks are worn
 with jackets or long fur coats which
 must necessarily be removed imme.
