WITH a deal of reluctance and
many memories and associa-1
. Hons of good times during: the
Summer, the fascinating and brilliant
hued sports clothes have been care-,
fully laid away by society for othe
'days. It is true that some women still
Un fondly to their white summery
rb, especially the alluring: silk
sweaters, which have been worn not
only at Summer resorts but in town
And now the corsetiere comes forth
'with the statement that woman's figure
'must be molded at! over aprain; the
waip-like waist with full and gener
ous hips Are the order of the spring
modiste. There will be many women
who will defy the latest edicts of
fahion and continue on in the com
fortable "debutante slouch." The mili
tary styles of suits demand straight
backs, erect shoulders and chins, and
to some they are most becoming. What
wjll become of the picturesque girl?
Live, vibrating colors, which have
been the joy of the past few seasons,
are also tabooed: dull, pastel shades
. will take their place, but the fabrics
and shades are so exquisite that they
will be just as popular as the vivid
shades.
The week has been fraught with
goodbyes for the boys and girls going
.away to schools: when they were not
being: entertained or shopping for their
Fall wardrobes they were greeting
numerous friends from whom they
had beeu separated during th Sum
mer. One of the largest groups of charm
ing girls left Thursday, the majority
going to Dana Hull. With the girls
went a number of attractive young
beaux, some to finish their college
work. oUiers just starting on that
fascinating and interesting era.
The departure of the Krekine family
also was an occasion for regrets from
their large host of friends, as they are
removed to the British Consulate in
New Orleans.
