tachable white linen collars and
runs add a touch of trim neatnees
that appeals to many girls. The

pleated henna skirt may of course

it is a good plan to make haste
slowly in this matter of buying
sweaters for the school and col-
lege girl——as each school or col-
lege is apt to have its own pre—
ludices and fads in the matter of
this accessory.

At the present time there seems
to be a decided predilection for
men's sweaters of the slip-on de—

One very smart sweeter recently
chosen by a young college girl
was of tan with sleeves in bright
colored stripes. It is worn with a
simply tailored sport blouse. the
cuffs and collars appearing at neck
and wrists.

no Choice of Coats

The choice of coats depends
somewhat on the latitude of the
school or college. The girl who
acquires her education in a north-
ern cllme wisely invests in some
sort of fur cost at the beginning
of her college course, even when
to do so necessitates considerable
economy along other lines. in

Often this soft blue is combined

with white or light rose in dance

A soft green. like antique jade.
seems to be especially well liked
just now for sweaters and other
sport things.

 

One prominent dressmaker
recommends black fallle trimmed
with brick or henna red for the
early autumn street frock.

A charming tulle evening frock
was trimmed with flowers made
of ribbon embroidery. The flowers
were scattered over the entire
frock—cleats, bodice and skirt—-
both in front and back.
