up-turned brim which rolls up in
front, at the side or in back.
COLORS-Black is far and
away the smartest chapeau shade,
followed closely by combinations
of black and white. At this mo-
ment the newest color note in
Paris is poppy red, as wildly Grim,
son as the flower itself. Combined
with either black or dark blue it
forms a striking combination.
Other important colorings include
the various tintings of brown the
wood shades and green.
MATERIALS - Milan straw,
taffeta, satin, MORE, felt, and
crepe de Chine, used singly or in
conjunction with each other, are
the leading fabrics of the modiste.
A slightly different note is sound
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-04-06

of this part of the suit. The rigid
ly straight lines of the skirt are
invariably unbroken.
TRIMMINGS - The dominant
type of trimming is conservative
and harmonizes with the fabric of
the suit. Fine black silk, called
tailor's braid, binds the edges Of
suit coats and is inlaid under in
verted pleats. Or a tailleur of
whipcord en- bayadere may have a
self trimming of the material, but
in thin instance, the cords will
run vertically. The idea is never
to disturb the severity of the CO.'S
tune through a glaringly contrast
ed trimming.
For the neckline either the scarf
cut in one with the jacket or the
tailored collar is invariable. An
occasional inverted 'pleat appears
at the back of the coat.
COLOR AND FABRIC-Black
alpaca, blue and black serge, dark
wooden in checked and striped
patterns, navy and black reps and
tan, gray and green covert cloths
are the outstanding materials for
both the suit and its trimming.
THE ENSEMBLE SUIT-The
ensemble is two-piece model con-
sisting of dress and coat instead
Of the usual combination of skirt
and jacket. 1t is one of the most
important manifestations of the
new Paris fashions. The coat,
short or three-quarters length,
frequently has a lining which is
of the same material as the dress.
Therein lies the ensemble touch.
In summation, while the vogue

Spring Coats Feature the
Low, Flaring Silhouette
Beltess Waists and Scarf Collars Distinguish Full
Length and Three-quarter Models-Fr Collars
and Cuffs Important Trimming Note.

The essentially unchanged out
line of the coat has shifted the
burden of distinguishing the new
models to the details of fabric,
color and trimming.
THE SILHOUETTE-The sill
houstts Of the coat, while usually
straight, shows an increasing ten
dency to flare from the knee
downward. Modified flounces and
panels also emphasize the trend
away from the unqualifiedly SIM
pie outline. The length of the
coat varies from three-quarters to
long, and the more modish models
emphasize the former.
SLEEVES AND COLLAR -
Sleeves are unchanged-they are
wide and usually bell shaped or
raglan. The conventional sleeve
with no touch of the bizarre is
characteristic of this season. The
lines of the collar are on the
whole unaltered save for the
strong influence of the scarf,
which has been introduced partic-
ularly in silk wraps.
DETAILS-The Directoire ef-
feet is stressed either by means
of the two-tiered circular cape or
through the slightly fitted type
which is long and has a deep re-
we're and pocket flaps usually OF
black satin. The looseness of the
current models is particularly ap-
parent at the back and is made
more emphatic by the complete
absence of belt. In general, the
upper section of the coat is loose
ly fitted, while the lower portion

Short, Straight Dresses Are
of Many Colors and Fabrics
Black and White Are the Leading Shades for Spring
While Silk Alpaca Tops the Fabrics Most
/. Frocks Avoid Any Semblance of Waistline.

Of this country, and even the most
conservative woman can now &C.
quire her spring wardrobe with
out fear of becoming demode or
bizarre.
The scope of the springtime
mode is wide, yet there are certain
marked and definite differences
which distinguish this year from
its predecessors. To point out
these changes and to indicate the
accepted fashions for spring we
have made a tabloid analysis of
the outstanding characteristics of
the new clothes. This particular
article concerns the dress.
SILHOUETTE-The silhouette
Of last seasons dresses is funda-
mentally unchanged. It is simple,
almost affectedly so, slim and
straight. The straight line, usu-
ally short, is either unbroken or
else interrupted by means of some
Of the details tabulated below.
WAISTLINE-The entirely alb
sent waistline distinguishes the
most modish of the new frocks.
However, the high and low line
are decidedly en- regle-the strong
er trend being toward the latter.
The high Directoire waist has not
lived up to its early forecasts al
though exploited by prominent
Paris designers. In a word, there
are no confirming dicta concerning
the waistline save it should never
be exaggeratedly marked. High,
low or inv sible-all are accept
able.
SLEEVES-Sleeves are what
you will. Long, short, tight, FLAIR
ing, all are sanctioned by the be-
nevolent despotism of the mode.
And many dresses are quite with
out any sleeves.
SKIRTS-Much of the elabora-
ton Of the current styles centers
about the skirt, which is definite
ly shorter. Paris dictates length
reaching to fifteen inches from
the ground, but a modified inter-
probation exists over here where
the skirt is abbreviated at from
ten to twelve inches off the
ground.
| DETAILS - Panels, flounces
tunics and godets are the popular
methods of ornamenting the sim
pie silhouette. These trimmings
are concentrated at the front of
the skirt, leaving the back plain
and quite flat. Pleats are univer-
sal and the scarf, an almost in

Jackets, Severe Skirts and
Conservative Trimmings Mark New Suits

The tailored suit is clearly one
of the most important develop
ments of the springtime mode. In
Paris its vogue has been tremen-
dous; and while it will undoubted-
ly not attn such popularity on
these shores, its reception has
nevertheless been quite enthusi-
astic.
SILHOUETTE-Trim is the
adjective which describes the out
line of the suit, and it corresponds
to the straight, short and simple
one of the dress. Coats feature
straight lines in box effects and
skirts are equally severe.
THE JACKET-Jackets are
usually short and frequently in
bolero form, although an excep-
ton is Cheruit, who shows long,
straight jackets in masculine eff
feet. Hip length jackets which
fit the figure snugly are either
straight box affairs or else are
slightly fitted at the waistline. A
smart touch is given by means OF
capelet which is attached at the
back of the jacket. Belts are of
every variety. Some reach all the
way around the coat, Others
stretch only across the back, while
large proportion of suits are
entirely beltless. Generally a note
of boyish simplicity characterize
the jacket.
THE SKIRT-The skirt is al.
ways severe, even when, as in the
Drecoll model on to-day's page, il
is not entirely simple. Shortness
too, more pronounced than in the
dress, is an abiding characteristic
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-04-06

ed through the use Of ribbons,
both MORE and grosgrain, as the
material for the hat itself.
TRIMMINGS-Greatest variety
is offered in the way of orna-
mentation. Ribbon Celebrates al
most every type of hat. The tail
ored models stress buckles and
ribbon bands as well as fobs. EN-
broidered monograms appear on
dropping ribbon trimmings, while
jeweled ones settle on the brims
of upturned models.
The single white gardenia, the
ribbon cockade, the embroidered
motif and medallion all come in
for their share of attention on the
Easter bonnet. And last, but
never least, comes the irrehpressi-
Bile scarf, this time appearing
with the hat in a matching set.

banana yellow, powder blue,
mauve, biege and the various
shades of brown are among other
leading colors. As usual, the vivid
hues and combinations prevail for
the evening, while the more con-
sentative shades are seen in in
formal dress. Wooden plaids are
favored for sports and plaid silks
are important in afternoon cos
tunes.

standing shades of the season.

FABRICS-Silk alpaca shows
the way over an almost incredible
range of materials, which includes
silks and various laces. Silks are
plain and printed-crepe de Chine,
satin and crepe Roman lead the
staples, while printed georgettes
and novelty crepes predominant in
the fanciful fabrics. Among the
woolens, reps, kasha, cashmere
and serge are important.

SPORTS JACKETS-These
not materially differ from s

SEASON L|CHTENED
BY RADIO PARTIES
Campaign of A. M. E. S. for
Better Equipment and Pro-
grams Finds Favor.

NEW YORK, August S.-The cam
paign conducted by the radio section
of the Associated Manufacturers of
mer of 1924 a radio Summer by the
Improvement of equipment, service
and programs has brought a flood of
letters to broadcasting stations
throughout the country rejecting the
increased hold which radio has taken
upon the public and the better quail
ity of reception this season as COM
pared with the warm months of 1928.
One of the interesting develop
ments disclosed in these communica-
In thousands of the smaller commu-
mites the announcement of an eX-
ceptional broadcasting program is
gathering of neighbors and friends
for an evening of music or for an
informal dance.
Due to the notable improvements in
receiving apparatus, as well as the
greater power and range of many
broadcasting stations in the United
States, the usual Summertime atmos-
but little with the enjoyment of ra-
dio reception. Letters from public
officials, educators and clergymen en-
phasize the fact that, in addition to
these entertainment features, radio
has become an indispensable public
Democratic and Republican national
conventions came in many quarters
as a revelation of the power and des-
tiny of radio in the home.
