"Why, Bert Tracyi I never heard
Of such a thing"

Will go just the same. Go and AK
up and I'll take you into the city
to Donner's."
"Donner's!" Jenny caught her
breath. II guess not. That is so ex-
pensive, and We'll have to cut cor
ners after all this outlay for Marie. I"
Suddenly she sat down. for she felt
little faint. AS Bert sprang toward
her, she said: Its nothing-just that
little catch in my left side again."
How long since you first noticed

hooked her dress. 1t was only a
made-over-Ma1ie had all the new
things-but Jenny looked pretty and
young in 1t. Bert had changed his
collar and busted the little car and
they started off like any young couple.
At the small table Jenny let Bert
order such things as broiled chicken
and parfait without trying to restrain
him. And the things did taste good

geometricaI figure motifs. Most of
these shirts have the Numbered col
lar. The soft collar is not so good
for this Fall season as it was this
Spring.
There is a slight tendency evil
denced toward the return of the silk
shirt which has been weak since war
time. Such shirts also have the pat
termed collar and. of course, these
shirts have the collar Eau naturef'
that is, soft The silk shirt. how
ever. has not as yet come back with
sufficient strength to make a factor
in the seasons fashion.
Collegiate Shaped Collars
Madras and percale cloths lead
the fiber and mercerized fabrics
largely because they lend themselves
better to the stiffened collar. The
collar of the season is the varsity,
or collegiate shape with rather deep
tabs and a narrower "V" than we
have seen recently. The French cuff
has come back almost to the eXclu-
sion of the barrel shape cuff.
Next to these patterned shirts
come the plain whites and plain
color tints The tints are mostly In
pastel shades of soft greys. tans, he
los. mauves. violets and such deli
cate tones. These are in soft fabrics
with soft matched collars and are
largely broadcloths and similar lus-
ire finishes.
Quieter patterned shirts are in
poplins. These are very smart and
come only in the more expensive
lines. In such shirts the patterns
are daintier-neat stripes and the
coIors are soft and almost always
confined to two tones. Flannels
show fair amount of strength.
Young Mans Hosiery Howls
Not all men go in for loud hosiery
but almost all the young do. The
young fellows nowadays wear low
shoes the year round, therefore,
want noticeable hosiery.
The sockless collegiate is passe
and the college fellow has gone to
the other extreme of wearing gaudi-
est hosiery. Such hose are in prom
inent blocks. plaids, bold stripes. dia-
mond effects, herringbone treatments

FROM THE EARTH'S
FOUR CORNERS

THE American appetite is an ex-
1 acting sovereign. 1t demands
rare delicacies from the four cor
ners of the earth and accepts no
excuses in the way of insurmount-
able difficulties FOR not obtaining
the exotic foods which tickle its
palate and satisfy its epicurean
tastes.
As an Illustration. one OF the
hundreds OF ice cream companies
experimental recently with ice
cream favored with bananas. This
was new. 1t was also palatable-
The demand for 1t increased so
rapidly that it became necessary to
engage someone in the banana i'm
porting business to supply the thou
sands of punches which were used
for this purpose. During one
month, 3.73S punches of bananas
were made into ice cream f1avoring.
There are about 40 bananas to a
bunch.
There is another aspect of this
business of satisfying the American
appetite. Bananas are exported
chiefly from Central America and
the West Indies. To secure this
favoring for one of the dozens of
fruit and nut ice creams that are
manufactured, a healthy importing
business is involved The port of
New Orleans is the chief banana
admitting port in the country. Last
year 1t admitted 2o.0oo.o0o punches.
while New York, Philadelphia Mo-
bile, Baltimore and Boston did their
share to supply this tropical fruit
to the country.
But the difficulties of securing
this and other exotic fruits are not
good reasons why Americans can
not have banana ice cream when
ever the idea strikes them. Surely
no magnificent potentate was ever
catered to as are the citizens Of this
vast nation.

Nature better get busy and filter
her spectrum. tumble up the rain
bow bit more and devise some
color tones or very soon fashion will
have exhausted all the tints and hues
that she has on hand if this orgy
of high colors continues.
Man is getting just as gay and
f1amboyant in his desire for radiance
in his attire as his sister. If you
don't think so just roam around a
bit among the shelves and counters
and display windows of your favor
lite haberdasher.
Take look at the neckwear. the
shirts, the hosiery. the handker-
chiefs-yes. even the garters and the
pajsmas, and you1l find yourself
dazzled-but delighted.
Yes, 'he-male" fashion has gone
in for brilliance, but beauty. loud
ness that's likeable. And why not?
Fashion is the art of adornment
Take away the subterfuge of APP
parel being but a matter of body
covering and you have underlying it
all. mans vanity and the effort to
make himself as attractive as pos
sible to the opposite sex. And IL
Fashion is to remain an art it must
employ all of Natures elements of
coloring and symmetry to remain so.
For Instance Neckwear
Never has the neckwear of man
iinu taken on such brilliant hues
and such exotic designing as is pre-
Scribed for this season. Not even
in the days of the gay Louis of
France and the Cavaliers of the
Middle Ages have men INDUCED in
more riotous display of color as is
reflected in the neckwear color
schemes of today.
Bright colors are all the go and
these enhanced by rather wild pat
terning surely make the mans era
al an outstanding feature of his at
tire. The finest lustre silks and
.atins are employed as foundations
for these ties.
Charvets, mogadors and repps.
Conventional figures. floral effects
and the holder ideas in stripes and
blocks all add their color or decora-
tive motifs too varied and diversi-
fed Il detail. You'll have to see
them-and hear them.
Shirts Are Boldly Patterned
Patterned shirts are the vogue and
these largely have collars to match.
In other days of more Sedate dress
ing when shirts were accompanied
with the patterned collar at all the
pattern was usually fine stripe or
a modest dot.
But today there are very elaborate
stipple treatments of bold stripes

Little girls and flower buds are
synonymous. Both want to become
full grown. We have. at last, dis
covered the way to help little girls
and that is by dressing them along
the same lines as their mothers.
Many adorable models in dresses
and coats are shown for the young
sters this fall and winter For
sports wear, there is the two piece
wool jersey dress. with its pleated
skirt, long sleeves and button to the
neck collar, the regulation blue
serge sailor suit, plaid and solid
colored wool dresses, in simple mod
els, trimmed with colored buttons,
crepe de chine, leather belts, etc.
For Afternoon Wear
For afternoon wear. the little miss
who has always wanted a black satin
dress like big sisters, will find her
wish gratified. Black satin is the
last word in fashion and is made in
straightline. pleated, and two piece
models, trimmed with touches of
ecru or cream filet, Irish or val
laces. and bits of very colorful en-
broidery.
Suede and Pile Cloth Lead
For dressed up wear suede and
pile cloth or velveteen hold first
place. and are trimmed with fox,
squirrel, wolf. krimmer and opos-
sum. They are made in dolman.
blouse, or wrappy models, and have
pouch or shawl collars, puff cuffs,
etc. Some of the wrappy models
have inverted pIeats below the pock-
cts The dressy coats are trimmed
with nutria, opossum. squirrel, and
chapchilla. The colors most in de-
mand are rust. tan. green's. in vari-
Gus shades. navy and brown.
