SPRING OPENING
DISPLAYS HELD
in POCOMOKE
Latter Part OF Week Devoted To
lhe Exposition OF New Spring
Styles For The Fair Sex.

wednesday and Thursday of this
week were Spring Opening days and
IN spite of the cool weather our town
was thronged with interested shop
pers in quest of the newest ideas in
dress and accessories. Smart sport
wear, tempting hats and allurinp
trocks greeted one on every hand and
1t is very difficult person indeed
who cannot find in the elaborate dis
plays just the items suited to her
needs.
Surely there is no need to visit the
city in order to make a satisfactory
selection. 1t can be done without the
expense of a trip and with the added
satisfaction of knowing that you are
getting the best quality obtainable
for the least money. Never were
styles prettier and prices have at last
reached the low water mark.
The Hargis Department Store was
featuring very strongly sports ap-
parel of every description. Many suits
ere displayed in "trelaine" while
there was a strong showing of tweeds
and homespuns in the new shades of
rose, orchid, caravan tan, quaker gray
and french blue. These ranged in
price from $14.50 to $500. There
were also a great many conservative
models in navy and black developed
in twill, and tricotine Good looking
coats and capes in herringbone, tweed
and polo cloth were to be had from
$40 up. Dresses were featured in the
new shades and were most moderate
y priced. The two front show win
dcws of this big department store
featured the new caravan tan COM
bined with henna and shades of
brown, and french blue with tanger-
inc. All through the store one was
greeted with lavish displays of new
silks, ratines, ginghams, dotted swis-
ses, organdies etc, which made an
irrestible appeal to the feminine
mind. The numerous glass show cas-
cs lining both sides of the this store
displayed most artistically the new
things while the soft draperies and
potted plants on counters and shelv-
es made of the interior most attrac-
tive and pleasing appearance.
At Miss r. Belle Wilson's millin-
cry establishment was one of the best
displays of millinery and accessories
which has taken place for years. The
two front show windows featuring
periwinkle and orchid were most at
tractive and the interior of the store
contained hosts Of hats which were
not only pretty from an artistic view
point but vastly becoming as well.
There was a splendid showing of pat
tern and made hats in henna, tang
crime, french blue and tomato red.
These were priced lower than they
have been in years.
Miss Ella Bohm'S millinery shop
also comes in for its share of praise.
Here We're displayed the very new
est creations in headgear. Spring
millinery in all the new shades were
lavishly displayed. The new shades
of periwinkle, french blue and henna
with caravan tan were very much in
evidence and each hat had an air of
smartness that would do credit to a
high price Fifth avenue shop.
