 Paris, Dee. 12.-Thcrc is q gen. cral and quite important trend to be noted this year in the styles set aside for winter sports wear. While the general theme remains un- changed, women have at last rcaliz- cd that decoration cannot be in dulGcd in 10 the dctriment of such practical qualities as these clothes must present.
 Now that women know that a winter sports ensemble has to be built on a certain basic principle, ] am only too ready to introduce q note of fantasy in their compost ton. The "culotte norwegiennc" or ankle-length trousers and loose fitting jackets are by far the most practical of garments. The touch of color or fantasy can be amply pro vided for in the decoration of the sweater as well as in the cap, scarf and other arcc@soricS.
