NANCY and l are hopelessly west

glnia and mine sojourned there six
years on the way from northern Eng

Last sunday we were out to dinner,
and during the meal l had the honor
of being seated by young woman in
somewhat mussed gown. She had
been born ana educated in Massachu-
sets, as l learned before we had
scarcely begun the soup.
How crude these western women
are,' she began. l looked across at
Nancy--slender, sweet, smiling, and
self-possessed, apparently listening
with interest to the sophomore beside
her.
They seem educated sometimes"
she went on, but it's usually sham.
They are superficial; there is no depth
to them. They have no real culture"
She drifted to coeducation while the
plates were being changed. mo wom-

which Nancy once had with a woman
who had never before been west of

sense. what have you out here, any
way?" she asked as a sort of poser at
the end of an examination, that is

Nancy hesitated for a moment; she
did not want to boast; she disliked to
seem disloyal to her native heath.

She only squeezed my arm a little

GETTING ON IN THE
WORLD

p OBBINS had never had a very

five, he lived comfortably, he had
built an attractive house. and at fifty
he was looked upon as one of the sub
stantial citizens of the town, whose
financial rating and whose credit was
unQuestioned.
"How did you do it?" / asked him
one day. There are a lot of people

much as you have, who seem not to

And so Robbins had gotten on in

It was not so with Tompkins. His
salary was twice as large as that of
Robbins, but he spent it all and was

cloth coats. The flare may be achieved
by the godet, by the circular f1ounce
or by the gathered straight fiounce.
The fiounce may appear at the front,
the back, at one or both sides, or all
the way round the coat Then, too the
distended effect may be arrived at
through patches of fur applied to the
coat in such a manner that a flare
results. Less usual methods are
through gathered inset sections, in
verified plaits, inset panel sections
which extend into a border or the
cutting of the coat on graduated cir
cular lines.
Length of New Fur Coats.
The next consideration concerns the
length of the new fur coats The
models of the current season reach
either to the hemline of the dress or
terminate an inch or two above. Either
is satisfactory this year, but, delving
once more into the future, which is
preferable? There has been tendency

careful analysis leads definitely to the
conclusion that graceful width is to
dominate fur coats next season. as
well as this, 1t may take a distinctly
different form. And so it would be
unwise to commit yourself to any ex-
treme translation of the flare. Choose
the middle path and you will combine
smartness and security for a happy
compromise
There is a single exception to the
hared idea in fur wraps and that is
in the sports or trotteur models. Every
other type Endorses some species of
flare. Some of these originate at the
shoulders and simulate a cape back
but mostly they swing from a mar
row hipline into front and side
godets. Cape effects are most popular
for the afternoon-the mode du soir,
although not disdaining the cape sill
houette, shows a distinct preference
for sleeved models.
The fur coat flare is effected in as
many ways as it Is on dresses and

this autumn away from bizarrely short
skirts and there are indications that
by next autumn that tendency Lay be
further accented. Furthermore the
flare in a longer model adds more
dignity to the general effect and mas
much as there are sign posts which
point to a return of at least the ghost
of the old-time elegance, our sugges-
ton is that you choose the longer
models, everything else being equal.
The ideal fur coat length should be
about thirteen inches off the ground.
Collars, cuffs, and the various other
details that differentiate this winters
fur coats may be adopted with no fear
that next year shall find them de-
NODES Collars and cuffs each show
a prediction for the flared silhouette
and they are invariably full. Among
the former, shawl collars and chin
effects share the spotlight while Jared
cuffs often 9 Id the finishing touch to g
literally constructed sleeve.
Further smart details that mark
the fur wrap of 1925-'26 are the cape
back, either in one piece or slashed
at the center back, all-around cape
effects, front borders that form
long trimming from collar to hem
line, bolero effects, scarf collars,
standing collars and wide revers of
contrasting fur-the revers cut in one
with the collar-a wide flOunce that
continues up the center back of the
coat, gradually becoming narrower
until it disappeared underneath the
collar.
Fur Coat Innings.
Fur coat Innings may be very ornate
or quite sober. Smart sports coats
of fur are frequently lined with kasha
while more formal models often fea-
ture hand-embroidered silk Innings or
hand-painted Innings depicting jungle
| scenes.
The reversible coat composed of
cloth on one side and fur on the other
and the fur-lined coat play an i'm
portant part in this winters models.
Leopard, gaZelle and burunduki are
the furs most in evidence with this
| type of wrap.
So far as the pelts are concerned
you may choose from this years offer
ings with perfect equanimity and as
surance that you will remain in the
picture next year-and if necessary
for several following years. There are
of course, certain sharp distinctions
drawn in the character of the skins to
be worn for the different occasions
For afternoon wear, fiat furs are easily
smartest and moleskin and caracuI
are the two outstanding leaders in
this class. The first is bleached and
dyed in numerous colors, leaning
principally to beige, golden brown and
mahogany. Caracul comes in the more
sedate hues of grey, black and brown
If you will invert that order you will
have about the correct order of color
frequency for the fall and winter sea
sons. Grey is newer than either brown
or black but we suggest that the fruga
budgetaire confne her spectral fancy
to those two ancient favorites. AnC
of the two our preference is for black
Mink, broadtail, baby lamb and an
telope are also en- reggie for daytime
wear.
