l| HEDDA HOYT TELLS ! I ....about... I FASHIONS for WOMEN I I New York. (United Presr.) Hori-{ zouliil stripes in sweaters and blouses are being replaced by vertical stripes of broken geometrical patients. Horl-j zonttii stripes were found to accentuate the breadth of the body, thus the vogue for the vertical lines. Velveteen coats have played a prominent part In the fashionable sports< world this season. Blues, reds, violets yellows and tans have until now been deemed the smartest velveteen coat shades for wear over summer sports' dresses. Arrivals from Paris this week are introducing coats of taupe gray] velveteen which they say are the latestthing in Paris. Some of these models are trimmed with collars of taupe gray fox which adds to their attractiveness. One of the most interesting twotone dinner gowns presented on Fifth Avenue is a deep pink chiffon trimmed with a pleated flounce of dark brown luce. Several grown* using tile pink and brown combinations are shown, each of which are most attractive. Satins and transparent velvets give promise of being the favored dress materials for fall. Crushed velvet, processed so as not to be damaged by

t i pressing er steaming, is expected to be important for both gowns and mil- , linery. Trnnsparent silk velvets will be more promising, however, than printed or crushed effects. Bows, either of the dress fabric or of velvet, continue to be the lending trimming items of the summer. Not only is the bow worn on the shoulder ‘but upon the blp, at the rear neckline | or three bows may be worn down the | side of Hie bodice. o HOSPITAL NOTES Mrs. William Linn and baby d:iufh-j ter.
