New Ideas at Oxford That Will
Travel to America

The tourist season is well un.
der way. And that means much
more to mems fashion scouts
than the mere fact that lots Of
college boys have gone to
Europe to have a good time.
College boys are proverbial
style carriers. They take up
fancies easily, and bring them
back to America. AS the most
worldly members Of their own
special groups, they are soon
copied. And so the clothes they
buy on their summer tours Of
Europe become the smart fash
ions at American colleges in a
season or so.
Let's look over the new things
that were seen at oxford along
about late May and June. Those
are the things that will attract
American college boys touring
Europe right now.
First in Importance is the fact
that ShetlandS are replacing
Harris tweeds to a large extent
at oxford. That will undoubt-
edly mean that in a season or
so you'll see more Shetlands and
fewer Harris tweedS at our own
colleges. In England the. knitted
wear manufacturers are imitat.
ing ShetlandS for their various
sweaters and waistcoats, and
those articles will undoubtedly
come over in the luggage Of
smart young Americans.
These new pull-overS, knitted
waiStcoats and jerseys, initiate
the weaves of Shetlands as
closely as they possibly can.
They have checked designs just
like the patterns that have been
used for plus fours. Many Of
them are made to wear with
suits of similar design.
Even turtle-neck sweaters
take on Shetland designs, and
so do wool stockings. Our in.
formant says that the effort is
to reproduce the best Shetland
tweeds, but he doesn't say
whether they are worn with
Shetland suits or not. ....
Navy blue has been very pop
Ular at Oxford. and is good in
pull-overs, with rounded neck
fitting close to the throat, fin
ished with ribbing. Other
shades of blue are good, too.
Blues are used more in combi-
nation with other colors than
alone.
An idea that sounds smart is
a pull-over in navy, brown, wine
or black with small figure in
white or contrasting color, worn

Smart Costumes

The great meeting place in
Washington is undoubtedly the
baseball park. Not all the men
who go out to the games are
well dressed, but a good per.
centage Of them are, and the
smart scout can see some ex-
cellent ideas if he used his eyes
between innings. Here are some
good finds of the last game.
One young man wore a yellow
shirt, so popular in Washington
now, with a cravat Of black silk
with yellow polka dots, a white
Palm Beach suit with bi-Swing
jacket, black and white shoes,
and a straw hat with a black
band. The final touch was a
tiny yellow stripe in the middle
Of the black hatband. Oh yes
-. the handkerchief this man
had was black silk with yellow
polka dots. almost too much
black and yellow.
Solid comfort was the motive
in another costume. The man
wearing it chose a white mesh
polo shirt with short sleeves.
and wore it with white linen
trousers. His shoes were white,
with crepe soles, and he wore
white wool ankletS. Everything
white. and cool and smart

me. when she came to pose.
A smart fashion not yet pop
ular! That is a find. indeed.
I had been reading for days
that women were wearing
coats and frocks of this fas-
mating fabric at Newport, at
Southampton, and so on. Fash
ion magazines are showing it
:. even Hollywood has taken
it up. It's sure to take" here
before the summer is over,
and perhaps will last over for
another season.
Good Country Clothes
There's a nice casual look to
the dresses and coats, too, Of
candlewick material. The coats
I've seen in town are simply
made, just plain Swagger style,
and have their tufting done in
squares, diamonds, or some
other conventional design, and
in pastelS on natural muslin.
The dresses, however, go in
for different designs, and are
most attractive. One you see
today, worn by Mary Brian,
has the design in huge plaidS.
The boat neck is charming for
a country or informal dress,
and the frock buttons on the
shoulder with huge string-cov-
cred buttons. There's a belt
Of the same string. This dress
is $13.95 in a local store.
Natural Wood Buttons
Another style that intrigued
me was in light colors. with
some red and some green on
natural muslin, I believe. It
had a heavy cord belt, and
fastened down the front with
uncolored wood buttons. It was
the same price, and both dresses
were in misses sizes.
The muslin these frocks are
made on is just plain old un.
bleached muslin, like that used
for the better bed spreads. They
are well made, and fit beauti-
fully. The coats are a little
lighter weight, and priced much
less.

well UP into the present century,
the Sargasso was pictured BY

The Human Side of the News
Quake Follows Planes Mount Everest Flight
By EdLUin C.. Hill

Twenty thousand human be-
ings have perished under the
caves Of the world. The great
earthquake which shook north
ern India centered its fierce os-
citations in that maelstrom Of
gigantic mountains in Nepal, a
native state which lies between
British India and Thibet-the
last home Of mystery, as Col. E.
Alexander Powell calls it.
Here is the region of the high
Himalayas, a stupendous wall,
falling away in tiers to the
south, clear down to the hot
plains Of India. It was in this
jungle Of tremendous, ever
lastingly ice-clad peaks that
the earthquake rolled with such
appalling violence. Mountains
bowed to each other. Valleys
and gorges were ironed out, like
wrinkles in a garment. Towns
1eu apart and disappeared.
Death and horror rode a lonely.
inaccessible land.
Disaster Predicted
And now comes the curious
report that the Buddhist abbot,
Tempe-ise-Ring Of the Tangtra
Monastery, predicted disaster
nine months ago as an inevita-
BILE result of the defiance by
Englishmen of the old gods who
abide on the crest of Mount
Everest, as Jove and his gods
and goddeSseS dwelt on the
summit Of Mount Olympus.
1t was last April that the
Marques Of Douglass and
Clydedale, with Col. L. ".
Stewart Blacker, and Flight
Lieutenant E. F. Mcintyre,
drove their plane high above
the plume-capped peak of Ever
est, lifting $4,000 feet above the
Indian plain. It was the first
time that the gaze of a human
being had ever been turned
downward upon the monarch
Of mountains. Always, through
the centuries, that gaze had
been lifted upward in amaze.
ment and respect.
Many times men had tried
to climb to the top of Everest,
and always had been defeated
by the terrible cold and the
fierce wind which sweeps the
top Of the world. Now the
Buddhist lamas maintain that
the old gods have wreaked
vengeance on humanity for
daring to invade their privacy,
for daring to look down upon
them. Superstition, of course,
but it is a curious fact that

everlasting shame that we did

We had all the makings for

food, money and work for every
man and woman in this
country. BY the use Of q very
little intelligence, q minimum
Of decency, we could have
distributed this food, money and
work so that a depression
would have been impossible.
But we wouldn't use that
intelligence or exercise that de-
cency. AS q result, millions Of
human beings have been living
for the last four years under
conditions unspeakably wretched
and desperate.
