Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 90, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 April 1914 — Checks the Vogue. [ARTICLE]

Checks the Vogue.

Checks are used almost as liberally as stripes and plaids. Black-and-white checked street suits are shown in all the newest cuts. They are always a good choice for the women who need not be very economical. For the woman who can have only one suit the checked one is hardly the right choice. It is much more noticeable than one of plain color, and therefore the owner of one tires of it more quickly than she would tire of a plain colored suit. Moreover, black-and-white checked woolen goods does grow soiled rather quickly. Small as the amount of white seems to be at a glance in such a suit, it is really half of the whole surface so it is hardly to be wondered at that it soon needs to be sent to the cleaner.
