Washington F dshions
By WILMA LAvHLE

To horse! To horse! And it
seems that we will take to our
horses earlier this fall than
usual, if there is any faith to
be put in the many people who
have already started buying fall
riding habitss Many people
wait till crisp fall days before
they start riding, but this year
we are either riding straight
through the summer, or getting
off to an early start.
"CoIors Contrast"
Again we have the contrast
ing color theme in breeches
and coat, with the coat con-
servative, black, navy or brown,
and the breecheS in lighter,
and sometimes in almost
bright color. Brown coats look
smart with rust or sand
breeches. Black coats are good
with gray or tan breeches. We
find that coats are rather short
for fall, and are fitted through
the waist. They are made of
tweeds or melton. Breeches are
best in bedford cord, whipcord
or cavalry twill.
"Chedked Waistcoat"
Newest of all are the hats.
The derbies and position hats
that have been converted into
street hats were originally worn
for riding, so now they look
much better mounted than
they do on a pedestrian. Tri-
cornes and bowle1S are made
of felt in all dark colors, per-
fectly simple, of course, and
they are supremely smart with
a riding habit. In fact they
would look we'll with a tailored
suit. Another clever touch is
a vest of Tattersall flannel,
checked in brown and beige,
and especially good with
brown coat. Complete your
habit with a broadcloth shirt
in white or a blending color,
and with handmade string
gloves, which come from Eng
land, and are lined or unlined.
