leads one to suspect that colorful silk
scarfs will be usual accessory for the
foot ball game.
LanvinS new underarm bag, an ed1s
ton of which saw the other day IN
soft darkiSh blue suede, is made to be
carried under the arm, but there is a
strap through which the arm may be
slipped, so that double sort of Sc
curity is gained.
Other bags suitable for the foot ball
season are provided with change purses
that are attached by means OF fine
metal chains.
Not, of course, that one expects to
encounter pickpocketS among the spec
tators at the foot ball game, still 1t is
quite possible that too easily carried
purse might slip away, especially when
fingers may be little numb from Sit
ting so long in the cold. Some woman
at every large game always loses her
purSe-uSually there are many who do.
And to lose ones purse somehow be-
tokens poor preparedness. It Is from
the preSent-day point of view rather
bad form to lose ones purse. One
should choose a purse that stays with
one.
There is nothing new in the idea
of strapped or belted collars and cuffs
for coats, and yet many of the SmarteSt
new coats suitable for foot ball wear
of warm cloth, fur and kildare strap
ped. A cloth coat of unusually good
line is made of one of the new warm
but not too heavy wooden mixtures in
tones of brown. There is very gen.
erouSly proportional collar extending
from the double-breasted top and this
may be left open or brought up Snugly

the ears. There is fairly wide belt
with buckle which when closed gives
slight blousing above and gathering
of the skirt beneath, and the rather
generously cut sleeves are provided with
buckled straps which when fastened
keep the wrists and arms very warm
and produce a f1aring effect around
the hand that is decidedly smart.
1t is a safe prophecy to make that
at the foot ball gatherings within the
next two months one will see many of
the new kidskin coats which are al
ready bought with the foot ball sea-
son in view. Gray caracul, very smart
this season and we'll liked by the
younger foot ball enthusiasts, is often
provided with belts of gray suede, and
sometimes strapped sleeves and collars
as well. Buckles are often seen on the
type of fur coat that one chooses for
foot ball and sometimes the collars
show straps at the back only, with the
buckle placed at the center back.
And here and there, I am sure, you
will see muffs, which because they are
new and little unusual give dis
tinction. And of course their coZy
warmth makes them decidedly desirable
when one sits outdoors on cool Au-
tumn afternoon.
Vying with the fur coats for dis
tinction at the Autumn foot ball games
will be the new cloth coats lavishly
trimmed with fur. Following the FASH
ion set by Paris several weeks ago
many of the most interesting of these
new coats show considerable flare and
lavish use of fur in the form Of Dor
derS. Frequently there are luxurious
fur collars and cuffs and wide fur bor-
ders on the godets or flares at the
sides, while the front and backs are
embroidered.
There is evidence of a revived inter-
est in the short fur coat, the jacquette,
so called, but when warmth is needed
about the knees. as it certainly is when
one sits in stadium seat all after
noon, the longer coat is really prefer
able
