belt on a flnely-ribbed wooden material.
A suit with hip-length fitted jacket has
shiny satin revers, above which peeps
the rounded top of the satin blouse
beneath, with its white buttoned dickey
finished with large, wide white bow at
the neck The sleeves have wedge
shaped tucks at the tops to give them
the proper fashion touch. One shop
is featuring a slightly different gray
a taupe gray, reminiscent of 1890. This
is a mouse gray, and in this instance
it has sharp contrasts of scarlet used
to pipe its flaring bias ruffles.
Sports and travel ccats this season
are showing a great variety OF
textures. 1t seems that the manu-
facturers and designers of this class
of goods have been very busy of late
putting more interest and color into
the less expensive materials. A
tendency to emphasize the horizontal
weave is ncted both in woolens and
silks, where the old = fashioned
bengalines are again enjoying day
of popular favor, and the finer
ribbed failles are in evidence also.
Among the coat materials the
Scotch heathers are particularly
pleasing in freshness of color.
There is such good-lcoking blue
heather with fine white hairy sur
face that gives soft effect in seven
eighths-length swagger suit. The
coat has wide straight sleeves hang
ing from large armho,e, and the
lining of the coat, as well as the
small collar and revers, are OF
boldly checked wcolen in two tones
of blue. The skirt is also of the
checked material and the two form
an admirable suit for travel wear as
well as early Fall This is an ex-
cellent model for the college girl, as
the coat can be worn as an extra
over other frocks. 1t has sport hat
to match. This suit comes in brown
with brown and white checked skirt,
too.
A NICE suit Of cadet blue Maharrah
tweed with three quarter coat has
more fitted lines. giving a tubular sill
houette. The shoulders are scanned out
to several inches beyond the natural
width and the sleeves extend up to the
neck in raglan style The scarf collar
passes through loops, ties at the side
and one end hangs over the shoulder
and one down the front. Pointed patch
pockets. round blue ball buttons and a
hat of the material complete. this
youthful suit
"A new-looking travel tweed is in one
Of the new bright, lively green's cut
on fairly straight lines, with sleeves full
and shaped into deep cuffs with several
points upward. Kolinsky makes a mar
row shoulder yoke that continues down
the front, outlining the wide armholes
in new and interesting way and wide
revers turn back over it. Wide revers
are being used extensively. One brown
and beige tweed two-piece suit has a
small collar and enormous revers of
nutria.
To 60 back to the eel grays again,
there is an all-satin frock with two
padded rolls on the shoulders that is
so smart. 1t has a shallow rounded
neckline and three silver frog orna-
msnts trim the otherwise perfectly
plain front. The satin crush belt
has double bow buckle at the front
of woven silver wire. A dress that
depends on its cut for its chic is of
crepe and satin using many points
cleverly in its construction on both
waist and skirt. The front panel of
the skirt is satin and the sides
crepe.
EVERYWHERE we see silk lambs wool
banding used to trim street dresses
as well as the Jackets of ensembles, 1t
