PARIS, Dec. 28.-The Scarfs the

from the large Paris designers.
Early in, the season it began to put
the usual fur neckpiece out of the

taken up the idea of the scarf for
the gown. A large number Of them
have made it their strongest feature.
The scarf Is particularly attractive
with the black frock. and in this sea-

to brighten it up. One Of the smart

Chinese lacquer-red Majunga crepe,
long enough to wrap around the
neck twice and still have the ends
reach below the waistline. Another
scarf which caused a good many
heads to turn lately was in Coro-
mandel design on Tchin-Tchin crepe.
It Is Chinese, Of course, and this
kind Of crepe Is going to make many
Of the smartest sport costumes

dress. 1t Is Of black satin and the
scarf, in which with black ends, is
held to the belt on one side and
is long enough to permit one end
to form panel on the skirt. The
other wraps around the throat and
falls over the shoulder.
From the Maison Cher1fit comes
glorious creations for evening wear,
with appliqued flower designs in
