more tailored tweed coats, where a
scarf of the fabric serves as a collar
all of this seasons coats are generously
fur trimmed. Fur may be omitted
from the cuffs, but never from the
collar.
EUR collars take on many shapes.
There are scarfs which may be
twisted around the neck and tied or
Topped. Similar to these are short coll
lars which stand up around the face
like a frame. Other collars which
stand away from the face extend part
way down the front of the coat in lapel
effect The tuxedo collar is also very
often extended even to the hemline.
All of these collars are generally in the
fiat furs, broadtail, caracul, brett
schwartz, astrakhan, Persian lamb,
krimmer, beaver, Hudson seal or lapin;
while the long-haired furs-lynx, fox
wolf, raccoon, badger, stone marten,
etc.-are more adaptable for the great
shawl collars which also may continue
as revers to the side fastening at the
hip. On Vionnet's successful black
broadcloth coat the Persian lamb coll
lar is so deep that it almost reaches
the fur at the bottom ascends to form
an overlapping v at the front. It is
one of the coats which one is inclined
to describe as of fur trimmed with
cloth.
Borders of fur are almost as varied
as collars. Several narrow bands of
fur may encircle the coat, or a wide
band may take its beginning at the
hemline in front and wind around the
coat until 1t reaches the opposite hip.
A new and favorite way is to edge the
diagonal front overlap with fur.

DESPITE the color consciousness of
the fashion leaders today, the all
black coat is the smartest, especially
for formal wear. Developed in black
broadcloth, velvet or a heavy silk, it is
trimmed with the black fur-broadtail,
dyed lapin, dyed lynx, Persian lamb,
caracul or Hudson seal. More youthful
are coats of the bright colors-a deep
red, emerald green, bright blue-trim-
med with black furs. The blond furs,
such as natural lynx. wolf, badger, blue
fox and lapin, are well liked on both
black coats and matching brown and
tan. Matching furs, even if they must
be dyed TO match, are the hallmark of
the season
Although black is the leader fer for
NAL coats, brown and green are strong
rivals for first place for daytime, espe-
cially brown with a rosy cast and DARK
green's Of the bottle tone and shade
lighter. Patou's dahlia, rich plum, is
the new color which is gaining in favor
constantly, and blues are coming to the
fore, particularly those with the viCi,t
tinge With both these colors gray
furs, such as gray caracul, krimmer or
fox, are becoming and smart.

Latest Footwear.

Simplicity marks the new footwear.
But that doesn't mean that it is In any
way ordinary looking. For it isn't. It Is
as distinctive and interesting as it had
ever been in an era of great elaboration.
For general wear the straight high
neel is accepted. There are, however,
many smart oxfords with lower, broader
heels that may be chosen for street
wear by the woman who becomes tired
walking on silt heels. And for sports
wear, of course, lower and broader heels
are always chosen.
There are colored shoes-brown, blue,
purple, green. Whether you wear them
or not must be decided by your own
taste. Black shoes are always an al
tentative.
Suede and reptile skin in matching
color are combined with kid in many of
the new shoes. The trimming is cut in
most decorative devices in the way of
points and scrolls. Sometimes half the
shoe is of one sort of leather, half an
other. But more often the contrast is
produced by trimming bands and scrolls
and insets.
Oxfords, pumps and strap shoes are
all in good taste. Strap shoes show
usually but one strap. The strap is high
and comes above rather than over the
instep. Oxfords are low cut. without
bu, kles or else with very small one.

very short, should attsmpt to wear the
closely-draped turban type of hat, and
the soft bonnet type of hat with gath
cred extension at the nape of the neck
should never be attempted by the
woman Of over-robust build.
A good rule to make and to keep re.
garding hats this season is not to con-
sent TO wear anything that is not
entirely comfortable This might have
months ago, but this seasons hats
have been designed for perfect comfort.
It is simply a matter of selecting o type
Of hat that suits the shape Of the head
and the manner of their arrangement
Of insisting on one that is made of soft,
lightweight materials and of getting
the right size. A hat that is too large
may be quite as uncomfortable as one
that is too small.
MILLINERS no longer charge the
AVA exaggeratedly high prices for maxi
ing hats to measure and there are all
sorts of attractive toQues, berets and
bonnets that may be easily adjusted to
suit the head size. While the new hats
almost always cover the ears, they are
ears, and there is, of course, no longer
the pressure against the forehead that
was the source of so many headaches
season or so ago.
To be on the safe side Of fashion
always wear hat that exactly matches
your coat or suit or street dress in color
or one of black. Black Is always good,
and especially so this season, when ma
terials are unusually light and soft.
With coats or suits Of mixed materials
either the strong or the neutral color
note may be repeated in the hat.
Bright-colored hats may be worn with
black dresses, but this is fashion for
afternoon or restaurant wear-a black
canton crepe dress, for instance, with
small hat Of emerald-sreen velvet-and
not one that Is we'll followed for every
day street wear.

Two Materials
in Same Color

The idea of providing two materials
in precisely the same color and design
is a new one, or at least it is only with
in recent seasons that it has been pos
sible to buy materials of this sort spe-
cially designed to be used together. 1t
is possible to buy printed chiffon with
printed velvet of precisely the same
color and design. A charming evening
gown with long flowing skirt is made OF
the chiffon and a knee-length coat is
made of the matching velvet. There are
silks printed to match some of the new
tweeds, so that you may have skirt of
the tweed with blouse of the match
ing silk.
Sometimes velvet is dyed to match
tweed, and it may be worn with the
tweed it simulates-though usually 1t is
combined with silk
Sometimes three tweeds showing the
same colors and the same design
achieved of course, by the weave of the
material-are used together. One tweed
in small design is used for the skirt. A
hip-length jacket is made of the same
sort of tweed in slightly larger pattern,
and full-length, ur-collared topcoat
is made of the same sort of tweed In
still larger design.

cant, the chance visitor from
Mars couldn't possibly see why the
additional inch should signify one thing
in 1926 and quite another thing in 1929.
Yet the fact remains that the woman
who showed her noble brow three years
ago was considered either Indifferent
to fashion or incapable of grasping its
intricacieS. whereas the woman who
does not show her brow this season is
looked upon as lacking in smartness.
Invariably the new hats are designed
to be worn OF the forehead. If there
is any softening of this rather severe
line it Is to be gained from q slightly
dropping brin or a veil rather than by
fringe or loop of hair. American
women, finding the new line rather try
ing, have persisted in showing their
hair. French women, knowing that
these new hats were never designed to
be worn in this way, have shown much
greater inclination to revive wells than
we have up to the present time.
French milliners this season insist on
having their customers try on their
hats before a long pier glass. Not only
must one be sure that the color is pre-
cisely right for the gown but also that
the lines of the hat are suitable to the
proportions of the figure. There are
hats that are just as truly right for the
short, broad figure as others are suitable
only for the tall, slender figure.

PACT WILL SETTLE
STATUS0F ISLANDS
U. S. and Britain Negotiate
on Sovereignty of Turtle
Group in Pacific.

~ the Associated Press.
The last outstanding question Of SOW
ereignty over insular possessions in the
Pacific is expected to be settled this
week with the signing OF treaty be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain.
Negotiations to determine the sover-
eighty of the Turtle Islands and es-
tablish the southern boundary of the
Philippines have been concluded here
and are incorporated In treaty being
drafted by the State Department. An
unusual arrangement, ACKNOWLEDGING
American sovereignty in the Turtle
Islands and assigning administration 10
rhe British, is expected to be evolved
The negotiations have been going on
for only few days.
Includes Seven Islands.
The Turtle group includes seven
islands of minute size, with total pop
u,ation of 220, near the coast OF Brit
have been administered by the British
government under the provisions Of
Spanish German British protocol. After
the Philippine Archipelago was coded to
the United States by Spain in 1898 the
United States entered into provisional
agreement with Great Britain whereby
the administration was to continue IN
British hands. although the United
States was fully recognized as having
complete sovereignty.
The question was dealt with by a
commission established by the two gov
ernments. The chief British delegate
was the British Ambassador, Sir ESme
Howard, assisted by F. w. Fraser.
British expert on Far Eastern affairs,
and T. A. Shone, first secretary OF the
British embassy. The chief American
delegate was Maj. Gen. Frank Mcintyre,
who has been prominent in American
1nsular affairs since the Spanish Amer
lean War and Is an expert on Philippine
questions Gen. Mcintyre was assisted
by John K. Caldwell of the Far Eastern
division Of the State Department and
Jacob A. Metzger of the solicitors ONCE
OF the State Department.
One Site of Big Lighthouse.
While the islands are small. at least
one of them-Taganac-i the site OF
an important lighthouse for the Brit
ish port Of Sandakan. the capital and
most important city of British Borneo.
The other islands are Boaan, Lihiman.
Langaaw, Greater Bakkungaan, Little
Bakkungaan and Baguan, and all Of
them are within easy sailing distance
Of the Boreo shore.
The islands were originally under
British jurisdiction, according to the
terms Of the treaty of Paris signed in
1898. when Spain gave up the Philip
pines to the United States. 1t was
found. however, that the line of de-
marcation for the Spanish British
boundary in the treaty did not include
supplementary to the original treaty

signed by Spain and the United States
