HAS COME
RIGHT TO FRONT
PRESENT STYLES
Appears in All Parts Of
Mode, Sport Clothes
to Lingerie
BY ADELAIDE KERR

NEW YORK, April 6.--Lace has
been decorated" for chic by fash
ion dictators this spring.
1t appears in every part of the
MODE from sports clothes to lin
gerie, in weaves of cotton, wool,
linen and silk New spring hues
make it colorful and novel pat
terms make it news.
Some of the smartest things in
town are lace evening wraps laun-
! ched in Paris and copied III New
York for American women. They
come in long capes with hoods to
protect evening coiffures, hip
length capes and quarter
length coats-most of them design
ed in sheer black weaves, which
make a charming contrast to a col
ored evening frock.
Besides these there are scores
of little jackets-bolero, box and
peplum designs intended for wear
with a dark frock. Some are
white, others made of rows of mar
row black Valenciennes lace. They
cost little and offer an inexpensive
way to brighten last seasons black
dress.
ColorfuI Evening Gowns
Lacy evening gowns are as gay
as a garden They are designed of
sheer Chantilly laces, nets and
marquisettes in such colors as
mimosa yellow, forget-me-not blue,
tea rose, heliotrope mauve,. carna-
ton pink, mist gray, black and
white, or of. the new printed laces
and nets having bright blooms on
dark backgrounds. Their bodices
are generally snug, their skirts as
full as a Civil War bellies.
Lace goes to town in street
clothes, too, this spring. There are
number of smart little suits link
ing jacket to skirt or frock and
many simple street dresses made
of black, navy blue, green or gray
lace. These often are accented
with white or a color. One of the
ismartest, created by London de-
signer, sets a navy blue lace suit
over a slip of tile red taffeta, while
another combines a long-sleeved
green lace dress with crepe foun-
dalton of the same shade. Most
of these street clothes come in fair
ly heavy weaves of wool, cotton or
linen.
Sheer Cocktail FrOcks
Cocktail frocks appear in sheerer
weaves of lace or net and are gen.
orally dark in color. One rashion
success is a short-sleeved, two
piece model of navy blue net shirred
throughout the bodice and pleated
in the skirt.
Spectator sports frocks of all
over linen or cotton lace, in such
colors as dusty pink or powder
blue, are ready for the first warm
days in the country. Worn with
white accessories, they look both
cool and smart.
Besides all this there is wealth
of lacy accessories to add the fem
mime touch, SO important this
spring, such as lace jabots, organdy
bibs and blouses edged with fine
white Valenciennes lace. Sheer wells
appear on many hats.
Lingerie also reflects the influ-
ence. Many of the new spring slips
and chemises are lace-trimmed Va
Tenderness and other white or cream
laces are smarter than the coffee
colored Alencon weave, whose vogue
has begun to wane.

 "Keep this thought in mind the trafflc through the streets of our city will be extremely heavy tomorrow, the day of the Yale- Army game. It will be necessary for both the pedestrian and the motorists of Sur city to exercise caution during the day. The pee destrian must observe the use of the cross-walks, cross with the green light, and observe the sig nals of our trafIlc ofilcers. The pee destrians in the outlying districts should watch their movements while walking on the highway. Keep to the left facing trafilc. Use more than average caution, tomor- row. The motorist should drive sanely and not as if he were Q member of the backfield of either team on the way to a touchdown. Protect your life and the lives of others by driving earefully. If you are going to the game, start early and give yourself time to drive to New Haven safely. Do not walt until the last minute and then speed to arrive for game time. Cooperate fully with the police department by driving safely and sanely tomorrow"
