Paris Styles By MARY KNIGHT, VP. Staff Correspondent, Paris. Mar. 21 - <(J.R> If you need] .to ho practical about your shop-■ ing this spring—and who doesn’t?) ' you will select a smart cloth coat i without a fur collar. Then decide, 'on the color scheme for your ac-, I cessories. If the coat is to bo onej |of those shades of new green that intakes gentlemen prefer blonds' i more than ever, or that coral rose I I that makes the same gentlemen I find brunettes possessing a charm, they had somehow overlooked, yog! 1 will need to adopt a darker color' | for gloves, bag, shoes, hat and' scarf that is, unless you decide on beige, fcr beige goes with every-] thing because of its utter neutrality. At first, before the rays are really warm, it would be stunning to have a neck piece of silver fox or fisher. These are always smart' and are worn this spring with the' heads tucked under the skin at 1 I the left side of the neck and the body hanging down the left side to i the waist with the tail dropping i further. Or, you have ever so ; many choices of very chic flat fur collars th it may be worn either with the suit or coat, or right on a woll, or tweed sport dress. A narrow strip of ermine goes beautifully with all combinations of white, especially when it loops over the (throat in a soft one loop bow or slips through a fur eyelet letting j cne end go over the shoulder backwards and the other frontwards. White gloves and a white leather purse are just natural necessities in this case. The public bunco party of the Minnehaha Club which was to ' have been held Friday ' night, March 27, has been postponed un- . til Friday, April 10, on account of the North Ward school play. The Minnehaha Club will meet in the Red Men’s Hall, Friday night, following lodge. Mrs. Floyd Arnold and Mis. Cash Lutz will j be the hostesses.
