Elaborate styling is marked in the development of new models, which establish family ties between wrap and frock.

OUR UNWORTHY SELVES TO BE constantly discussing the deficiencies of others without considering our own, is a common human foiling. It requires no special perception to see the faults In those around us, but to discern our own, is quite a different matter. Indeed it is not strange that we balk at the effort It is a job that we do not like to contemplate, even when we are in a good humor. But if we would achieve, attain and be highly respected, the obvious thing to do Is to stand up and face the music. though the notes be disquieting. Whoever is not doing his utmost to overcome his own defects, is cheating himself. The first sane step we take toward self-improvement Is the one taken arm-in-arm with self-dissatisfaction. We tread then on ground In a new world, where we discover to our amazement sins within us equal In every respect to those we so loudly condemn In others. Humans who are living in one sphere cannot understand those in an- • other position. They have been trained j in a different camp. Yet each person has his or her own j problem to solve. Its correct solution s being dependent upon individual dis- j cernment and ability.

COATS AND CAPES FOR BREEZY DAYS
In this most temperamental season one needs to be more than ordinarily alert to its requirements, for its moods and tenses have been something with which to reckon judiciously. Forethought, discretion and some imagination, notes a fashion writer in the New York Times, have been required in selecting the wardrobe for this summer, in providing for all sorts of weather and in dressing suitably and comfortably for every occasion. The matter of gowns is comparatively simple now that more and more one type as to weight Is worn the year round. It la the wrap that signifies, and the choice of it demands attention and considerable outlay. There must be covering for days In the open; motor coats, sports coats for the games, the green and the pad dock; wraps for the beach and the promenade, and for evening dress, liesigners who ordinarily give the greater part of their time and attention to modeling wraps for the winter season are doubling their occupation this year, and the creating of many styles of coats, capes, scarf wraps for any and every kind of costume becomes an unremitting continuous performance. The results are attractive. First, the sports coats for summer wear. Following the winter and early spring coats of heavier weight, fabrics of lighter, looser weaves and brighter colors have been introduced in a number of variants in cut. The plaids that date back to last autumn, when they were presented with caution, grew slowly into favor and are now the last word in fashion for sports or general country wear. General Utility Sports Coat. English materials, translated Into French, as it were, are shown in the latest sports coat models, light, warm and swagger, suggesting cool evenings in the mountains and long drives on the open road. The new sports coat is a dependable friend for yachting, for days by the sea when the wind blows and for general utility. O’Kossen sports coats are built of gay plaids, of the quiet two-toned colors, In Scotch mixtures. Some of the models show delightfully artistic combinations. The tans, browns and grays, in which colors are staple, retain their popularity, but the latest coqfs illustrate the possibilities In contrasting vivid colors with the neutral shades. There are gold block plaids of brilliant scarlet with gray, vermilion with tan. green with beige and. conspicuously, black with white in innumerable styles of contact. Some of these are striking in the extreme, yet they have become firmly established as the mode. Most of the designers who go In for the tailleur type of things have turned out smart sports coats this season. The popular stuffs are rough and of a homespun, cheviot or camel’slyyr character, usually In diagonal twills, the soft yet wiry, uncrushable kind. English and American women of fashion contributed to the smartness of Ascot this year by wearing not only the most chic frocks from Paris, but also stunning coats and wraps, which were more ordinarily au fait. In addition to the sports coat, variously known as the driving, motor, polo, paddock coat, useful for protection. there were new and altogether smart models in a somewhat more formal wrap. One of these, new to Paris and the world at large, is the cape, which, added to a coat frock of the same marerial. makes an ensemble fashionable and practical. This Idea has taken so well that many models tn different stuffs and along different lines are seen in town or out of town equally, l
Scarflike Wool Garment
The least formal and most picturesque of all the new styles in wraps is a scarflike wool garment, in four lengths, or cleverly put together so as to wind around the figure and meet in a straight line, buttoned down the front as a coat. This is made In a Plaid material of gray, white and black, and has proved to be popular. The model, informal and luxurious and presenting a problem of ingenuity to the modiste, has been made quite the fad among the fashionable women whose daytime and evening social demands closely connect Evening coats, wraps and capes Intended to be worn with summer dress are intriguing this season. In this sort of thing the more established artixts in the Parisian ateliers delight, with pleasant results for the women of fashion on two continents. They are designed to provide a light covering against the evening chill, to protect an evening gown, possibly fragile, and ro complete a fashionable costume The most modish evening or dress wraps are made of crepe or soft silk, such as pussy willow,
' " ■■'■■"— ■ % May Harmonize Large Hats and Short Hair
The Paris modiste to making valiant efforts to counteract the effect of the bob which has been responsible for the unparalleled vogue of the small bat during the last two yearn Despite the enormous popularity of the cloche type in recent seasons it has never been a flattering style, says a fashion curre-. spondent in the New York HeraldTribune. It has been necessitated by the short-haired mode which ordinarily makes too great a contrast when worn in conjunction with the large bats. Its further and most discouraging disadvantage from the viewpoint of the milliner to the fact that it discounts the premium on artistic ingenuity. The manufacturer or form maker bad only to incorporate a half dozen different styles of cloche into his collection and be could have supplied the whole feminine world with hats during the last few seasona Clearly it to the instinct of self-pree-ervution which is motivating the drive of the French milliner toward larger hata. But it is equally patent that the
as weather, time and occasion require. The cape is reproduced in lighter fabrics, in lightweight wools, crepe, even in chiffon, as the dressier wrap and cover. Directoire Coat' Popular. The really- truly “swell” of the season is the directoire coat, which, responding to the ideal of the hour, is a eoat-wrap. This is a model in which some of the authoritative houses at Paris are specializing. Lanvin struck a top note with a coat made for a l l ’ ' ? ■ - ■ Sports Coat of English Mixture—Vermilion, Tan, Gray. fashionable patron of the races, for polo, tennis or any swagger sports occasion in black kasha doth, straight from shoulder and throat to hem. On the surface squares of white cloth are appliqued. each and all outlined with gilt thread, to look like a checkerboard, though with superlative styla and elegance. , Another, tout-a-folt empire, is created and presented by Drecoll—a coat of blue twill, uncurved tn line, but held about a low waistline with cord and tassel of black silk. Over the shoulders are three-tiered, short, fitted capes, blue, tan and gray—an ensemble made complete with a little directoire stiff hat of smooth beaver. This directoire suggestion has inspired some of the most picturesque outfits seen this year, particularly at the ultra-smart sports events at Paris and In England. A thoroughly conservative overgarment that Is never out of style, never gauche, is a sttaight-iined tailored coat seven eighths length. material medium or light In'weight, usually in black or midnight blue, lined with plain or fancy silk, and always—this season —with a Collar of some fur of light character, squirrel, summer ermine, white ermine, rabbit or any one of the many furs that are used tn summer wraps, a This coat answers every purpose when It is wbrn over a gown of straight silhouette, tunic, blouse or otherwise unruffled costume.

charmeuse, of chiffon voile or the other sheer stuffs now In vogu<£*s. It is intereMgg, perhaps profitable, to observe thatWs a result ot the fickleness of the season there are many sales, and one may find in some of the most prominent houses a large assortment of wraps for day and - evening at reduced prices. Thia means to the shopper of judgment an opportunity to lay In supplies for next summer. For Evening Wear The new evening slippers today are scarcely more than a sole and a series of strapa Os metal cloth or brocade, they are exquisitely dainty, but so cut out and cut up that one marvels at their staying on the foot at .alt For Summer Evenings A dress that Suggests summer evenings is of white crepe de chine with a very finely pleated skirt edged with a deep border of white marabou, clipped very dose.
