a dark gray suit with a fe-
dora Of the same shade and
blue tie and the raglan over
his arm was of a slightly
darker shade.
Adelaide Fegan, wife of
Col. Joseph G. Fegan, is
blonde with the pink and
white coloring that goes
with it, and just now she
is wearing a very swanky
daytime frock of finely
striped wool in shades of
blue with the most unusual
little ornament at the neck
line formed of tiny steel
wires which hold turquoise
beads to form two flowers.
The hat she wears with
this outfit is a medium-sized
one of dark blue felt with a
flat trimming of a lighter
shade.

Ellie Singer, wife of B.
Alexander Singer, who
looks Spanish, but isn't, has
gone athletic on us, and one
has to brush up if they
want to best her at golf.
Apropos of this, she has as
sembled a very smart array
of sport clothes, which style
is vastly becoming to her,
for she is petite with the
loveliest wasplike figure.
One of her outfits is of
lime green boucle, the
blouse knitted in a lacy de-
sign with a touch of dusky
pink showing at the neck
line to match the band on
her green felt hat. Another
attractive two-pieoe ensemble
of hers is of string color
wool, with a dark brown
felt sailor.

gardenias worn high added
to the effect. Her ornaments
were of diamonds.
Representative Car oil n e
