other age.
To bring the film up to date they
added some smart pictures taken
this season. Such stylesl We were
tremendously interested in all of
them and we thought they would
have intrigued you.
Summer Touches
Two Of the outstanding summer
touches seemed to be the little
jacket and the pack away hat.
trimmings on the latter were all
quite different, ore of them being a
soft white silk band that looked
like mans collar and had a bow
Of black, just like bow tie right
in front.
Taking the style features in the
order OF their Importance. just gaze
a minute on these two chic Jackets.
Coats, OF course, are still worn. And
capes and squares Of lace for eve
ming. But the jacket, whether it be
OF velvet or chiffon, is quite the
thing.
One girl wore probably the smart
est little jacket in Paris, with her
| banana colored accordian pleated
chiffon trock. The Jacket is called
Snuff because of its tobacco
brown. But the name doesn't give
you any idea Of the way the velvet
CLEANS and sets off the dress.
Four Shades Of Lavender
II has novelty touch in its I'M
even revers of tucked taffeta the
color Of the frock and hat, and It
hugs the hips tight and allows the
faintest suggestion of blouse i'll
front. tits sleeves are slightly
flared at the cuffs.
Another tricky little Jacket is of
novelty taffeta in a fine Bingham
pattern in four shades of lavender
and purple 1t is absolutely charm
ing with its kasha skirt of the
deepest shade of purple and soft,
chiffon blouse held at the neck
with pin set with amethyst.
The Jacket has a smart noncha-
lance about it. softened by its
unique collar that either buttons
tight around the neck or lies open
as shown here.
Jackets of this type are seen with
separate skirts or topping plain
colored silk, jersey or wolfe dresses.
No one could possibly think of do
ing without one such dream. Most
girls will find they need several
when they discover how becoming
and useful they are.
The summer hat has one out
standing characteristic. II stands
hard treatment. Most of them
seem to be fashioned from such
pliable straws that they could be
sat upon or trod upon without
much damage. Of course. the idea
is to fashion them for packing-not
mistreatment. But you know how
summer hats have a way of disap-
pearing, only to be found under the
lunch hamper or making a cushion
for the heavyweight of the crowd
Smoky of Color, Weight
One dear little model is called
Smoke" 1t is that shade Of gray.
and as lightweight as smoke would
be. It's material is a silken straw
almost as fine as horsehair. But it
| has the added value of not missing
Three little tucks are stitched in
the top of the crown and its tiny
brim turns up to suit the owner.
Hat trimmings get more and more
novel, as I remarked before. This
hat takes a couple of little belts,
with buckles and everything. That
is all. And, believe me, they speak
/ smartness with tone of finality.
Folding No Disaster
The other hat is a new fabric
that can be folded without disaster.
1t has trim cut-away back and
a flouncing little front brim and
nothing but a band of grosgrain
ribbon of green matching the hat,
with white edge. It's novel touch
is the necklace of white wooden
beads just laid across the grooves
made crossways in the crown by
three tucks.
am expecting a letter from you
very soon. For, my dear, unless
you write, how can I know how
things are going with you and what
you would like to have me observe
for my dear Sue?
OF course. the real reason I urge
you to write is because I like to
hear from you.
Auntie joins sending love.
