GUN hunting and time killing
are the favorlte winter sports
of many in the versatile United
States, and both are done with
the greatest finesse at Palm Beach.
So in january Palm Beach be.
comes the favorite subject Of
conversation for those who 30
there fbr the weekend or for
the BeaAon, for those who never
expect to 60, unless a rich uncle
dies unexpectedly, and for those
who arekRlwRyB interested In what
others are doing and wearing. The
main reason for this interest In the
golden beach with its blue, blue
waters and gay life, Is on nc.
count Of the fashions that doni.
nate the resort. 'Tis the fashions
that I'LL the columns OF the news
papers, tits fashions that make or
break the enjoyment Of the vaca-
ton. From the earliest morning
beach costume. and not DO early
either, to the evening goSwn that
dances far into the morning, one
and all center their enthusiasm
in clothes, fashions and kclothes.s
The styles for this years Palm,
Beach sojourn are 1ovelier than,
ever and gayer, too, IL such could
/ be possible. According to Mr.,
I Roberts, in his book, Sun Hunt-I
ers," the sweaters at the Floridal
resorts are covered with neat
lightning seftects In red, greenl
and orange lzigzags. But he is
mere author and being q man.
misses the delicate lights and
shadows that make up the tntri-
cate ense1hble Of fashions.
YESTERDAY. saw the most
= pleasing sweaters In silk and
silk and wool combinations. A
lovely, navy blue silk one was
striped in Roman stripes in
matching and soft colors. It was
tuxedo in style and could be worn
with or without the sash. AN
other silk one was Of brown
and had g. clever scarf attached
to the sweater in place Of q col
lar, adding color and variety to
the silk thing. Both Of these
sweaters were priced at .$35.

TyEE simple one-piece dress Apr
peals to many. For these, i
found an attractive jersey frcck
of robins egg blue. Fashioned
in the simplest of styles, the
long sleeves and " neck line
were finished with white collar
and cuffs. The -pIeated
skirt was in accordance to the
edict, that this Is to be a year
of pleats. twenty-five dollars was
the price OF this interesting dress,
that would serve for late spring
wear up North. when the Florida
trip was only a memory.
THE blouse insists In occupy

in the Iime-light as well. As
this is to be a sweater and jacket
year, the blouse will continue its
popularity. Some of the lowell
est ones are imported from
France. A likeable overblouse

unusual,l triangular-shaped orna-
ments beaded in blues, old rose
and green at the waist line. The

attractive model?

your sport wardrobe.
THERE is a. new short glove,
4 a compromise between the
gauntlet and the wrist-length
STYLES. It is characterized by a
tiny. circular cuff, scanned on at
the wrist, with just enough flare
to fit nicely over narrow
wristband. This circular section
is scarcely two inches deep.
Often the top is pinked or
perforated design may or not

parasols this year have gone
back to the days of yore and
