taken us indicative Of the French
state Of mind. Now that the gen

down, France has thrown off the
more sombcr wooden scarves of

the nation as a whole is turning
to gay silk scarves.
Rouff is particularly fond Of Il
soft silk in Scotch plaid pat
tern-which goes with any color
and almost any type of enscm-
bic. Worth and many others are
suggesting a return to the Roman
stripes Of yorc in displays Of
heavy satin scarves, straight style,
