Important This Year
To Know Thyself' When
Choosing That New Suit
Certain Types Are More Becoming Than
Others-Proportion of Figure Must Be
Taken Into Consideration.

rather than flared lines, shown with
matching skirts. It is dressier type
of suit that is preferred for women,
suits in black or navy blue that will
qualify for town and general wear.
The shorter boxy jacket Of dressmaker
type also is liked by women, with
| soutache braid an important trim
ming note in these softer suits.
The cape suit is another silhouette
that is gaining prominence in women's
sizes, for as with the swagger suit
the larger woman likes a wrap that
conceals rather than reveals. OF
course, the tailored suit is also in
cluded for the woman but she will
look better in those that place the
buttons rather low, we'll below the
bustline. The fitted tunic suit is
another favorite because the longer
line of the coat is regarded as slen-
derizing.
Extra tips to good silhouettes are
sWagger coats to cut the height and
long, straight lines to add inches to
the short, plump figure. AS suit coats
may be found from the briefest boxy
jackets to full length, it SINNERS down
to a matter of finding your proper
length.
HERE are some high lights OF re-
cent fashion showings in town of
smart suits and coats:
AS you sit and watch a fashion show
1t is the striking new colors that bring
the exclamations of delight from the
audience. One collection opened with
manniquin wearing rust red short
jacket suit with navy blue felt hat,
blue silk blouse, blue gloves and shoes
combining navy fabric with London
tan calf
Another color scheme is navy blue
and sulphur yellow. The skirt is blue
with attached blouse top of that dull
greenish yellow crepe The wool jacket
is also yellow with bands of blue.
The suits and coats pictured above
are from recent showing where the
only price represented was S25. 1t
was amazing to see the smart outfits
for this price in all types casual and
dressy.
Flamingo is a stunning color for a
sVagger sports coat and was shown
over a brown dress with brown hat.
This snappy coat has four large but
tons set close together below the COL
lar and there is center back pleat
which is very chic.
Gold color fleecy wool with polo
wolf collar is youthful and smart with
navy suit or frock. For the
woman" was shown a three-piece suit
of gray, the top coat in darker tone
than the, under suit. Chinese red hat
and patent bag with gray suede shoes
completed the ensemble.
Apple green makes charming
Spring casual coat and combines well
with either black, navy or brown for
dress and hat.
Among the dressy suits the fingertip
loose jacket with soft fur outlining
the collar is good. You will find 1t in
both navy and Copen blue with blue
fluffy fur.

BY MARGARET WARNER.

- VERYBODY knows that it is a
X suit season, but what suit for
which person Is the burning
question. Whether the short
stout should wear the mannisn tail
leur, and, If not, what should she
wear, is more interesting than the
mere generality that suits are good
and we all must have one. Suits have
personality this season and you must
look for the suit that fits you.
OF course, youth leads the parade,
as usual, and will wear all the most
extreme fashions that we love to see,
but do not always dare to try our
selves. For them, especially the
Juniors, the gay nineties make big
appeal and the Gibson girl will live
again with broad shoulders and wasp
waist. which the juniors who are de-
cidedly fashion, minded consider the
"tops" in suits, as well as other Spring
clothes. Gray Is one of their choices,
too, with navy and nutmeg close
"runners-up."
THE business girl probably is little
more particular about the quality
of the material and the fit of her
suit than her younger sister. She
knows all about the mems wear fab
RIGS, sharkskin, gabardine, f1annels,
fine worsteds and cheviots. She
knows that she may have from one
to seven buttons on a single breasted
coat; that bindings and stitchings give
softneSS; how contrast in skirt and
jacket permits smart variations in ac-
cessories; how smartly mems striped
trousers and dark coats have been
copied how greatly coat lapels vary
in size.
The efficient young business woman
favors the gray flannel suit of con-
servative cut, impeccable in every de-
tail, even to the buttonhole in the
lapel, which may be used either for
posy or one of the new leather
watch fobs. Sharkskin is terribly
smart, too, in these single and double
breasted mannish tailleurs along with
other dark worsteds.
Remember, too, that skirt lengths
are shorter. Whatever length you
have been wearing as proper for your
height just substract one inch and
you will be just right for this season
y
WE HEAR so many women say
they are entirely neglected in the
fashion picture and never know which
way to turn for smart clothes adopted
to their years and figures. However,
this particular class of persons is be-
ginning to receive an increasing
amount of attention these days and
one outstanding fashion source is de-
voting feature section each month
to the woman past 40. 1t is more
difficult for her to look smart and
therefore it is an especially interest
ing problem to plan for her. But
there is nothing impossible about it.
Now as to suits, the things she will
want to look for are those that have
coats with three-quarter and seven
eighth lengths made on straighter

ton in a business Office doing work
that am interested in and earning

If I am ever going to have fam

but I have a widowed mother and two
younger sisters, one of whom is a
semi-invalid and the other earning
only small salary. I virtually sup

as my mother lives and will always
have to take care of my delicate sis

I and child or two could live eco
nomically, but it would not spread
over taking care of my family. What
should do? Do without the babies
and continue to take care Of my
mother and sisters, which is no more
than my duty, for it gives me peace
of mind to know that they are happy
