Nearly every young woman seems TO
feel that, whatever else she may or may
not have in her wardrobe, she must have
a tan polo coat.
From practical standpoint there is
nothing quite so good. The soft tan shade
harmonizes with everything, and the
coats are cut on such simple lines that
they adapt themselves to all occasions.
For youthful smartness there is nothing
so jaunty.
The coat sketched is made with raglan
shoulders, big patch pockets with an m
