Turning Southward
Lf ASH ION is gains en dress parade where awniitgcd
verandas gaze upqn depthless skies of blue and sea
waves sparkle in the Summer-like sun,
Flerida, the Mediterranean, the Bermudas, the Carib
bean here are the lures away from Winter. Here are the
promenades, the gay clubs, the basking beaches and endless
hours of sport outdoors.
And for these hours there are Fashions vanguards of
things that will be the vogue of Spring.
They are at Wanamaker s new, a brilliant company te
take where brilliant, people gather.
Blue Skies, Green Palms and White Sheres
Will Be a Perfect Background for These
Levely New Fashions for the Seuth
gIMPLICITY itself eh, yes!
But what a charming simplicity it is; what pure bright colors greens,
pale blues, yellows, scarlets, generally used with white; what simple lines; what
really exquisite and novel fabrics from the looms of France !
Very, very many of the dresses are sports dresses, the sort that are put en
in the morning and can be worn all day. Among them are such fashion features
as these :
Cellars which may be worn hifih
or low, and narrow sashes or belts
which tic at the sides.
Nevel materials such as fine
white silk tricetines, closely printed
in rose color, or many heavy dark
colors; woolen basket weaves in
scarlet or yellow (used in coats te
white crepe frocks with scarlet or
yellow embroidery); cotton crepes
printed in colors; white silk crepes
printed in vivid colors; silk cpenge
cloths cembiited with crepe; batiste
with eyelet work in colors, and se
en. All materials, by the way, are
imported.
Sleeves short, hardly mere than
cups; the exceptions te this being
long bell sleeves.
Rax pleating appearing even in
the coal sleeves of a white Canten
crepe ceal-and-drcss suit.
Coats very straight or flaring;
always very simple.
White wool cpenge appearing in
coats and dresses with bodices of
colored silk.
Paisley printing in delicate col cel col
ers combined with white.
Brightly bordered white silk
handkerchiefs used as drapery en
white dresses.
Among eeening gowns the most
important feature is the new jewel
work, combined with beads and
making the most artistic decoration
imaginable. It appears en all white
gowns, and en black and white;
sometimes the jewels many col cel col
oredare used en white. One pure
red gown has red jewels.
There are many mere points of
interest we can only invite every
body te come and see them for
themselves.
Prices are really moderate,
being $32.50 te $315.

Milan or leghorn, bread-brimmed or becoming poke shapes and
the flowers are all from Paris. Alse many fetching little toques

Sun-and-Rain Umbrellas

They are necessarily long

their own, as well. It is
smart te have one te
match the costume, nnd the
colors are here. Most also have leather
thongs te match and amber bakelite tips.
Other colored silk umbrellas that will be

Every Thoroughbred Youth Going
Back te College
Has a Thought of Geed
Clothing Stored Away
in His Mind
And before he bids goodbye te the folks at home
he's going te dress up in a new suit and a new over
coat. Christmas checks are coming here every day a
sensible way te use them young men think and
fathers by the score are bringing their college-bound
sons for the clothes that leek different.
It doesn't take a college course te prove that geed
clothes are the only kind it pays te buy and geed
clothes mean Wanamaker clothes te the college youth
as well as the man who has made his mark in the
world.
Suits that fairly stalk with the vim and spirit of
youth. Light suits, smart suits, yet nothing extreme
about them and every one well made.
Overcoats that call te mind the chaps along the
Picadilly. And side by side with them the great coats
that speak for nothing se much as robust American
folks.
In many ways daring coats altogether away
from anything that ever has been in color or model
ing. But all in taste and all the kind that are dear
te the heart of youth.
Suits from $25 te $55; overcoats from $25 te $100.
