screen for years, probably never

The recent death of her mother,
Mrs. Charlotte Pickford, which af-
fected the film star deeply, was
said to be the factor which caused
Miss Pickford to decide on retire
ment.
For a period of several years she
contemplated such action but al
ways the call of the screen was TOO
strong. Now it is said she never
again will appear before the cam
era.
With her famous husband, Doug
las Fairbanks. she will leave here
probably next week for New York
to embark May 5 for Europe. In
Rome the screen. pair will charter
an airplanc to fly over Constanti-
nople, Cairo, Crete, Budapest, Wen
ma and other European cities.
1t is known that Doug thinks such
u trip will cause his wife to forget
her grief and possibly change her
mind in regard to retirement. Re
gardlcss of her ultimate decision in
the matter, Fairbanks will continue
his picture making. For the pre-
sent all studio activity of each has
been stopped.
Miss Pickford and her mother
were very close. The film star al

Suits to Rule on First Warm Days
CHECKS ARE GOOD CHoIcE-KAsHAS, HoMESPUNs AND TwEEDS FAVORED
.-M41x@~4s AMONG POPULAR MATERIALS
BY HARRIET

GOATS long or coats short
~ suits will be the thing still for
street wear on the first lifting
spring days.
To the woman who sews at
home, the choice of material for
her spring suit should be made as
early as possible in order to take
advantage of the wooden piece
goods sales.
Checks will be a good choice.
though not the blatant, vivid
black-white checks. New checks
show a tendency towards broken
lines, a mixture OF colors and in
definite marking-ail of which
give a subdued tone to the ma
terial.
Choice OF Materials
Homespuns, tweeds and the
new kashas hold the top places in
the choice Of suit materials for
anything but the very mannish
tailleur, which usually is of con-
ventional blue or black twill,
serge or other hard material.
Grays will be the best choice for
the girls and women who wear
that color we'll. For the tawny
haired girls. browns come in adj
mirable tones this spring. The
choice Of the color of q suit should
be decided along with the whole
spring wardrobe. For accessories
for ones whole wardrobe should
be disable INTERCHANGEABLE.
Suits this spring show q wide
choice in their fashioning. Many
depart from the mannishly strict
lines and show a fair for silk
braiding, bordered materials,
fancy pockets, f1aring cuffs. collars
with chic individuality and nov
city buttons. and other decorative
touches.
In order to buy the proper
amount of material one should de-
ciee early whether to have the
hip-length, more or less tailored
type of suit or the ensemble, with
coat three-quarters or almost as
long as the skirt-never quite
reaching the skirts bottom edge.
Two Types
I show today these two types
II one is especially good with h.r
needle she may fashion the for
mer. But the ensemble with its
longer. less conventional lines al
lows more freedom in cutting and
fashioning. Or. the choice could
be made ON the grounds that one
wears an ensemble better than this
shorter coat suit, which really asks
more of its wearer.
The short coat suit shown to-
day is of London smoke gray
tweed with a very broken check
