Paris, Mar. g. LPl-Darker hosior, and simpler shoes are in the r1ode again.
 In season when gowns are sim- pie. accessories. including shoes are elaborate. Now that more elaborate dresses and Uraps arc having their turn. footwear de- signs are less sompleX.
 The spring shoes. especially for street or daytime wear. are more often of one tone than or two or three. Black is the chosen color Tor street wear. particularly After noon. Brown is standard for before noon. Black satin is favored for wear from four o'clock to mid night. Those are the three broad working rules on which Paris builds it's shoe fashions. There are dozens of exceptions.
 The rule for stockings IS sim pier. The tendency is toward darker hose for day wear. deep sunburn and grays predominating. For evening the new shade is few tones darker than the complexion

New Sport Dresses Are
 Bare Over One Shoulder

Paris, March c3.-lPl-Society women are no longer afraid of being sunburned.
 Their one fear is that they will not tan consistently and that there win be hiatus between the line Of their tan and the decollette of their eyc- ming dresses. To quiet this fear the dressmakers show beach costumes, tennis dresses and pain sport cos tunes with backs as low as those of evening gowns. The fashionable woman now wears her bathing or beach costume at the same decolIete as her lowest evening frock.
 Some dressmakers show simple sport costumes with one shoulder entirely cut away. These dresses are sleeveless. the neckline running diagonaly from the single shoulder strap 10 point vol under the arm. leaving both arms and one shoulder exposed 70 the sun.

And they're as individual as the men who wear them. \ man can have q straight line hoN-coat or hr can choose a sporty looking rag Ian with rhs full flare that always has youth in its lines.
 The straight coats make light ot seams and bindings. They seem 1 bent on giving an effect Of in>sl- hle tailoring. Not so the raglan coats. They are 1ho per cent proud of their lines and hauut their swac- ger cut by over-stItChcd seams. iiu- ished on the outside for emphasis. | Naw topcoa's arc concentrating on putting over the new Shetlands. samel hair.

 The entire business district
 will be a vast style show ir spring merchandise displayed
 in the individual shops.
 Tomorrow you may wander

 In conjunction with this wholesale spring offering the Herald publishes this fashion supplement authentically fore casting the advance fashion for spring.
 Spring is the most beautiful season of the year. Winter is over, birds start to sing, buds appear on the trees, the air is )nvjgorating. No one needs to tell you that spring has come. With it comes the urge to be better dressed, the urge to re- furnish the home, everything must be new to harmonize with the season of the year.
 New clothes, new shoes. new hats. new furniture. new every thing. That's spring. That s why the merchants of New Britain have made a special ef- fort to display their merchan- disc at this time.
 For many weeks merchants representatives have been visiting style centers, consult ing with fashion experts and designers il with view to bring ing to New Britain garments, wearing apparel and millinery that will be in greatest de- mand. The day is past when a garment left over from a previous season will measure up to the cut and color of the new era. Ideas which dis tlnguish the newer modes are incorporated in styles and ma terials and none other will be accepted by the smart miss or n1atron who wishes to be up in the front ranks of the fashion parade.
 Dealers in New Britain have obtained stocks of merchandise to please the eye of male and female alike and are offering them to the discriminating buying public beginning to- morrow.
 In presenting to the readers, throughout this section. de- scriptions of wca,ing, apparel the inspirations for which originated in Paris. New York and other world fashion centers the Herald has endeavored to give general news of what both sexes are wearing and ! choosing for their homes. Doubtless every reader may somewhere in New Britain find q style or fancy which fits his pr her characteristics or de- sires. There is a wide latitude of choice in the different modes offered, though they do follow a general trend. Having found his inspiration he will doubtless be able to match the ideal in some store in this city.
 Merchants in New Britain Ire increasingly anxious to give 0 their patrons the best that he world offers in style and material. It is needless to say hat their buyers have been fol- owing the market closely, have watched early indications and ,ave governed their orders for yoods accordingly.
