show windows, ablaze with brill
lance reflecting the ever whimsical
nearly elusive mode of the moment,
held the attention of thousands on
the down town streets last night.
Twas not only the fairer sex, but
the sterner one as well that indulged
in window shopping with a pleasure
so obvious that it became contagious
and converted the sidewalks into pa
rade grounds for those who would
know the newest of the new.
Switzer Style Shop
Among the beautiful windows were
those of the Switzer Style Shop,
where exclusive models of the Peggy
Paige gowns were displayed with at
tractive hats and a setting OF flowers.
One exceptionally beautiful dress was
made of Roshanara crepe OF steel
grey. The lines of this model were
straight and the trimming was OF
Russian peasant embroidery, as na1Ve
and primitive as the race by whom
it was inspired. Other frocks were
more simple. some with little full
ness on the side and a caressing bit
of draperv. The windows we're not
avercrowded and the seffect was
thereby enhanced.
At Goldwater's
Beside the Twinkle Tone Sport togs
shown by Goldwater's. their win
dows also held many attractive
Sassy Jane frocks made in charm
ing combinations of silk and organdy.
One especially pretty dress was made
of tangerine and orange changeable
silk with organdy to match. The
bodice was tight fitting and the skirt
VERT full and fluffy. There was also
a Spanish green combination of the
silk and organdy that was attrac-
tive.
Kewpie Hat Shop
The windows of the Kewpie Hat
shop were effectively trimmed with
French model hats in color tones OF
tangerine and tomato red. One large
hat trimmed in this shade was given
an additional touch of life by a very
narrow black velvet ribbon, which
left just a suggestion of black among
the tangerine colored flowers. Even
the little Kewpies were dressed in
this color scheme.
Byrd Tailoring Co.
Hundreds took advantage of the re-
freshments offered at the Byrd
Tailoring company's open house and
many expressed admiration for the
elaborate decorations which consisted
of roses, sweetpeas and ferns. The
tables were heavily ladened with
ferns and flowers. by the side Of
which we're young ladies in atten-
dance. Not infrequently could be
heard lively discussion of the new
est things for men, especially the
new suits for hot weather. This
being practically the only oneR house
in the city it was thoroughly. enjoyed
and assisted materially in giving a
spirit of hospitality TO Phoenix.
Carter Mason's
The windows of the Carter Mason
store on Washington street just off
Central were handsomely decorated
in the new tomato red and grey color
scheme. which showed to advantage
the afternoon frocks made of heavy
crepe combinations in the same
shades. Picturesque hats with droop
effects and many off-the-face hats
trimmed in flowers were also fea-
tured. One dress held the center of
attraction by virtue of its graceful
slender lines and its clever combina-
ton of the two shades of tomato red
and grey.
]. C. Penney Co.
The sidewalks were well filled. as
far out as the J. c. Penney company,
where the windows were effectively
trimmed with new Vogue styles for
women and also new spring things
for men. One particularly pretty
frock was of black silk trimmed in
Spanish lace with just a touch of
tomato red. Another was "a yellow
and white dress with the new full
sleeves and the narrow tight wrist
band The windows gave proof of
their jubilee motto: From Infancy to
Old Age, We Clothe the Family
At Ratner's
The windows of Ratner's were re-
splendent in summer printed crepes,
soft Cantons and Roshanara crepe
sport models, including the cape cos
tune style. Dresses for the cafe,
sport, afternoon and street wear
were among them. The lines of most
of the dresses were straight but few
showed clever fullness. The hats
