and Varied
are the Fa brics
for Spring
She who would clothe herself in
the realm of fashionable fabrics will
not find much difficulty in selecting
what wouuld be correct for Spring
, because the fild from which she may
choose iB wide and varied indeed.
For early Spring wear, cashmeres,
homespuns, tweeds, wools, crepes,
reps, broadcloths and wool jersey are
the most prominent among Ule wool
1'abricH.
Basket Weaves Liked
There is a very general demand
among women everywhere for all
the loose basket weaves. In these,
mixed colors hold a strong position.
For coats for afternoon and sports
wear, velveteens in soft colors are in
demand. Poplin in silk and wool
mixtures Is aiso registered among
the popular materials for Spring.,
Prints take first place in silk. In
this group one may choose from
crepe de chine, chiffon, georgette,
marocaln, satin and Shantung and
feel certain that whichever or how
many of these she chooses, she will
choose correctly.
Designs in Prints
The prints are shown in small,
closely spaced all-over floral or geo-
metric patterns, in pin check de-
signs, in npoi patterns arid in striped
and plaid effects.
According to all reports,-taffetas
are enjoying an enviable place among
the new Spring fabrics and are al-
ready assured of success. Plaids and
pin check designs in light colors and
supple finalities are in favor-
Voiles to lie (sell
Linens in both sheer and heavy
weaves are good and voiles are very
prominent in printed patterns simu-
lating silk fabrics.
The most outstanding colors for
Spring are black and white combined,
blue in ail the hringhl shades; yel-
low for sports and evening wear and
red in all the brighter shades of ger-
an lu m.
tone treatments are noticed on all
the smart little dresses. Wool crepe
and crepe de chine are the favored
materials.
In wool crepe we see a decided
preference in the use of blues, gieens
and beiges. Flannel is noted, too,
trimmed with linen collar and cuffe
and tailored flat pearl buttons.
Silk Models Tallorde
In the clever little silk models we
see the influence of the tailored mode
adhered to again very conspiclously.
Also on most of the little drosses
the use of two and three-tone color
combinations Is the most prominent
trimming.
Fabric flowers, fabric cord belts
and pleatings in different arrange-
ments carry out the fabric trimming
idea that is so much in vogue for
spring.
Modes for Littlest Mister

spring are shown in a wide variety, dreses.

liET THE MARINES DO IT
Chaperones are coming back
into style, according to a social
note. Are the old people getting
wild again? . . . The chaperon is
a relic of the flaming Victorian
days when young people used to
play postolfice instead of robbing
it. . . . Speaking of Coolidge's
lame hand, perhaps it would be
well for the president to take a
chaperon along when he rides
west this summer. The chaperon
could do the handshaking in the
great open spaces where hands are
box-car couplers ... Of late
we've been depending on the ma-
rines to do most of the chaperon-
ing. . . . They have arrived in
several communities and seem to
have the chaperoning situation
well in hand. . . . The best chap-
eroned thing we can think of right
how is the constitution.
