NEW SPRING STYLES FIT EVERY TASTE AND EVERY TYPE
Silhouette Is Changed' But Little ~ BY JULIA BLA.NSifARD >*EA Service Writer NEW YORK. Feb. 20.—Last ftpring's revolt against standardization of clothes for women reaches Its gorgeous peak in the new spring things just being shown everywhere. If a woman can't find her own type of clothes this year, she not only lacks personality, but she has ho imagination whatsoever. The silhouette is changed only slightly, the fittest and flared line still being the preferred one, only many of the new spring coats and frocks affect a high waistline to their fittedness and no belt. The uoiquity of the little jacket runs tnrough the day, from the morning pajama to the silf frock or sheer wool crepe, the chiffon or lace afternoon dress and the evening gown. Coats Always Full Length When it comes to separate coats, they are very different from jackets in one respect. They always arc full-length; that is, they reach to the bottom of the frocks or suits worn under them. They may be fitted line, they may have bloused waist portioas and flaring skirt portions, they may be the polo coat model, and belted. But if they are separate coats, designed to be worn over any number of different things, they are to the bottom of your skirts. Fabric contrast is outstanding in the new mode. Silks In lovely new crepcy effects and semi-sheer woolens, arc used together. Plaid or striped wools are used with silks. Daytime, casual designs in prints arc apt to be striped, plaided, checked or small all-over patterns Colors Vitally important contrast is part and parcel of the spring mode. You can use two or three materials and two 01 three colors together. Colors are tremendously important this spring time. Blues lead in importance, with a lighted and somewhat brighter than navy in the van. Blacks are a strong second, with green, grays, beige and browns running along with quite a following. But with all these colors, contrails are used. Greens and browns appear, soft, lovely greens and medium browns. Green and darker greens are seen, but not so many. Anew three-color combination in n whole costume is a brown flannel skirt, a tomato red jacket and n beige crepe blouse and hat. Necklines Very Feminine Necklines and sleeve cuffs arc very feminine, and most coats, whether they use fur or not, have scarf collars of one kind or another, some fastening on the shoulder, Russian fashion, others in the back. Parisian fashion, others knotting under the chin, English Ascot fashion. A gray congella cloth coat exploits the one-sided lapel idea, with the other end of the lapel pulling throifgh a slit in the long lapel. Gray fox fur edges the outer edge of the lapels. This gathered effect right at the throat is a far cry from the collarless line of two seasons ago. The coat- 13 only mildly fitted and is slightly flaring, though it is much more straightline than many of this spring's. The hat is. a gray felt bandeau with a lacquered quill band. High Waistline Is Belted A black soft wool coat is fitted to a high waistline, with a decided flare to the skirt portion of it. There is a black moire galyak closing that fastens on the shoulder, giving a cowl neckline. Open, it forms a wide one-sided lapel. The cuffs are gauntleted, stitched in row after row of stitching. A chic little black toyo hat has an amusing white feather wishbone on one side. A suit for early spring that is trmcndously smart shows the fabric contrast and the color contrast that spring encourages. There is a plaid skirt, box-pleated flt intervals, of loose-woven homespun in beige, brown and rust-red. There is an Ascot scarf of the same material, with fringed , ends. The belted and fitted jacket is a plain tweed in beige and brown mixture and the hat ofc beige felt has a rust-red and a beige feather in it.

Just Every Day Sense
BY MBS. WALTER FERGUSON
SEVERAL months ago the Good Housekeeping magazine began a movement for the cleanup of county jails. Its distress signals were made solely to women. To add force to its argument, a. famous prison warden in a foreword to the initial plea assured readers that accounts of conditions were not at all exaggerated. He, too, wringing real blood from his pen, called upon the women of America to move together in a solid phalanx of righteousness and wipe out this stain upon civic honor. This movement, splendid as it may be. is significant. The men who have the power and the money to better conditions generally call upon the women when there is any cleaning to be done. The matter of improving jails, it would seem, is a simple thing. And entirely in the hands of the men. An appropriation by county commissioners, all of whom witli rare exceptions are male, might turn the trick. An order for investigation by Governors. A movement by influential legislators. or slight agitations by health departments. Or, what more logical than that the sheriffs who have the obnoxious sights and smells before them all the time, should stand up and demand cleaner quarters for their charges? a tt CERTAINLY any of these remedies would be less complicated and far more effective than having women organize a crusade, especially when we all know what nuisances crusades are. Tlie gentlemen, however, proceed upon the same old theory. There's dirt about, Sirs! Whoops, call in the women to clean it up! From public utterances and movements one gets the impressioii that women are in civic and national affairs for one thing only—to tidy up Uie messes men have made. We Jiro destined, it seems, to do all the charring.

Glass Curtains—How to Drape

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.—Glass curtains have graduated. They're no longer just something to be partly hidden under heavy draperies. Nowadays, they’re fashionably used without overdrapes, especially in rooms that need lots of light, or in any room during spring and summer. Interesting materials and new ways of draping them make glass curtains quite as important as any kind of draperies. And for the woman who sews, their possibilities are almost limitless. The most popular type of readymade bedroom curtains still is the rulfled criss-cross with ruffled valance. Ruffle Adds Beauty These are even better looking when they’re made with a fiveinch ruffle which is wide enough to hang gracefully. Because these curtains are made full, they’re best in sheer, soft materials like plain or dotted marquisettle in white or ecru or in point d’esprit in white or pastel tints. Organdies and voiles make charming curtains, too, but they’re more attractive when they’re not crisscross. One particularly nice way to drape them is shown in the sketch of a smart high drape, looped back high up on the curtain and held in place with glass holdbacks.. Ready-made living room curtains usually are hung straight from the rod or made with a valance. And the best materials are permanent finished marquisettes in ecru, fine filet net, or the rayon voiles that come in such lovely colors. Or for more informal rooms, theatrical gauze is effective, or the new chundah gauze—a cross between a filet and a theatrical gauze with a sort of fleck in it. The woman who sews can have lots of fun with the new curtain materials by the yard. Many of them are so decorative they need

only to be hung straight, without valance or trimming. Stripes Arc Good Rayon marquisettes, for instance, now come in broad horizontal stripes in graded color combinations —slightly modern in feeling but usable in any kind of room. We've shown this effect in ;he sketch of the double window herewith. Sheer voiles in the same type of horizontal stripe or in slightly modern floral designs put a lot of color into a room. And one nice way of hanging these is to have one side straight and the other side draped, as in the illustration. Plain color materials can be given a striped effect by stitching on bands of a contrasting color. Kitchens, bathrooms, and din-

A kitchen window draping in peach) would be a good material for this type curtain. So would maquisette with a large colored dot, and the binding matching the color of the dot. Here Are Curtain Hints If we w r ere planning new glass curtains for spring, there are a few things we’d keep in mind about how curtains should be hung. Here they are: 1. When used without over dr apes, straight-hanging glass curtains should just escape the window sill.
ji|^J
One-sided drape
2. When used with overdrapes, sill length is also correct. But if the overdrapes reach the floor, the glass curtains may come to the bottom of the apron. (The apron is the band of wood below the window frame.) 3. Ruffled curtains on short windows should come to the bottom of the apron. 4. On larger windows ruffled curtains may extend to the top of the base board. (Copyright.
