is by no means forgotten in the little

And if the trip is to be made over

must not be forgotten-that clever
affair equipped with china, silver, food

able meal along the way, when it
chances there are no wayside inns to
offer hospitality. Truly it may be said
that ones travelling companions are
assured of a hearty welcome-when
they're made of leather, for by their
luxury and convenience they make
certain a comfortable journey. And
in this business of preparation for
ones own holiday trip, there May be

day, since a gift of luggage or travel
/ equipment is sure to be a most salts
factory one.

these cases may be either simple or
elaborate-the toilet articles of cellu-
loid, French ivory, shell, gilt, silver or
gold. If an overnight bag is included
in the travelling equipment, there need
be no fittings in the suit case, just a
tray, perhaps, and shirred pocket in
side the lid and along each end. Such
a case may be of enameled cloth, wal
rus, cobra grain hide or ones personal
choice as to leather.
Some prefer the mannish kit bag of
English origin, since it may be folded
fiat and packed away when 1t is not
in use. 1t is a roomy affair and holds
more than the average suit case,
moreover, it has a certain smartness
that the suit case does not possess,
and smartness is just as desirable in
luggage, as it is in hats or frocks.
The hat box is a necessity, especially
if one travels light" without a trunk.
These boxes come in varying sizes,
large enough for four or five, or small
enough for the single extra needed
hat. Quite the newest idea in the lat
ter is not a box at all, but a bag, a
crushable affair of enameled cloth
that protects, but does not take up
the space the hat box requires, since
it shapes itself quite readily to the
hat. In the box type there may be
pockets for wells and gloves, some
even go so far as to have an extra
compartment in the lid for shoes. OF
the little things in luggage a volume
might be written. so many useful
things are being shown. Were one to
possess them all, an extra trunk
would be needed, just to hold these
| luggage accessories. There are jewel
boxes. velvet lined, with a tray that
has ring grooves and a neat compart-

train.

this particular model is sleeveless be-
cause the designer could think of no
distinctive type that would really fit
the old time quaintness of panel. ruff
fes and bodice, but whatever the rea-
son, it is just right as it is. One
would characterize this particular
model as decorative. for that is,
frankly. what it attempts.
Decorative, too, but accomplishing
the end by a wholly different means,
is the evening gown of velvet and
royal blue brocade. Such a frock is
difficult to analyze, for while it seems
the utmost in simplicity, it is really
most precocious in it's ways. Clever
drapings, a hint of a blouse and a
sleeve of the royal blue characterize
the gown from one point of view; but
from another there is merely a
straight sweep of the supple velvet
that comes to a point on the floor and
fashions the tiny sleeves, edged with
Metallic braid. Surely the designer
must have sought her inspiration for
this gown from two wholly different
periods.

may be newer, IN name. at least. The
shade of gray in the pictured coat has
been chosen with due consideration for
the beaver that trims it, and it IS
exactly the proper tone to blend with
the richness of the fur. The distinc-
tive features in the model are the un-
usual sleeves with their touch of en-
broidery and wide fur landings; the
subtle draping and panehng; and the
points of embroidery on waist and
panel. One notices particularly the
width of the skirt, narrow. yet cut in
such a way that it gives an appear
ance of breadth.
When all is said and done, black is
the color of true smartness. and the
graceful wrap of marvella cloth chose
wisely when it passed. by all the gor-
geous colors of a colorful season in
favor of its inky hue. Or perhaps it
would be fairer to say that a wrap
of black caracul made the decision,
for there is really authority for either
statement, since both cloth and fur
are employed in almost equal quanti-
ties. Note the slender inset of the
caracuI from belt to hem band. 1t is
a clever aid to the slenderness we
are always seeking, as is the sudden
hating of the fur banding at the bot
tom of the wrap. No one is permit
ted to go far enough to detract from
the effect of slenderness. Both Shout
der and sleeve lines are becoming. and
the clasp at the beltline gives just the
necessary touch of contrast to keep
the wrap from being somber.
Metal Fabrics Are Favorites

sumptuous metallic cloths that are. in

existence of the gorgeous evening

Rwraps and evening coats the COM
Aplete wardrobe may possess, there
is sure to be at least one practical
coat of tailored lines for general all
purpose wear. 1t is not meant to re-

own. since it is designed for knock
about, utility wear. "Mannish" is the
word that best describes it. since it is

and finish that make it exceptionally
smart.
1t is always the most important
wrap in the wardrobe of the woman
who drives her own car, since it's
roomy, does not crush and gives the
utmost in freedom; it is wearable and
durable for the school girl. who nat
orally, gives all her clothes hard wear;
and 1t is smart, practical and suffi-
GENTLY dressy for the woman who
goes, each day to business. So great
is the popularity of this particular
type of coat that many houses that
have hitherto made only mems gar
ments are constantly putting out new
models in new materials, only to be
met with a demand for more of these
clever "overcoats."

of the visit itself, but the convenience
and comfort of the hours in transit
depend upon the way trunk, hand lug

obligations. In choosing these aids to
travel, the wardrobe trunk is of
course. the first consideration, since
it's clever construction assures the I'M

quires little skill in packing, since
there's a place for everything that
it is necessary to do is to see that
everything is in its place. AS in the

there are interesting possibilities in
the new rugs that are coming to rs
from the far off foothills of the Hima-

House parties are in order, and the
woman who prides herself on the per-
lection Of her gowning lays many
plans. that the success of her wraps
and suits and evening apparel may
be credit to her hostess and herself.
Whether the journey be by motor or
by train, there is sure to be need of
a suit or wrap of the dressier sort;
a different evening gown for every
evening of her stay; and all the nee
essary hats and shoes and clever &C
cessories that are an integral part of
the mode. 1t is quite as much fun
planning, as wearing them, since in
the business of choosing one makes
intimate acquaintance with a world
of loneliness. luxury and charm.
Simplicity Is The Thing.
It is undoubtedly true that the out
standing feature of every successful
mode is simplicity, but 1t is equally
true that at this present season 1t is the
simplicity of sophfstication. exceeding
ly difficult of achievement. To really
know the mode of the hour one must
know fabrics, since fabrics-colorful
luxurious, rich and royal are the
mode, though their beauty may be
seriously impaired. if they're not cor
rectly used. And under the heading
of fabrics would come trimmings
which include, first of all, the pliable
peltries that are to be seen every
