Salem, Oregon, Thursday Morning, March 21, 1923 STRAW HAT IS BACK IN STYLE Harmonizing of Headgear With Outcome Effect of New Season EDITOR'S XOTE Tn Salem shops the newest fashions for the fall reason were found and here it Is that the story of the spTing " tendencies is revealed. A speciJ.l reporter for The Statesman relates the glory. The hats being shown early this ear-on are largely of tailored straw. Ballibuntl. Baku, syao), paerly vi?ca"and Chinese Bankok are leadinp straws. Among those for town wear is a new straw which Is called Paris Meme a soft, closely woven fabric which because of its versatility will bo used much as felt has ben in the past. For wear r ith dressier cos tumes and en-emblea we shall have turbans of all types In many fine pliable straws. In all models crowns are still uolded to the head, the season's mark- he'ns: introduced through the medium of a ' tailored treatment which makes th crown t-etm to be cut apart and sewed together as a tailored dress.' As' to brims, there is often a hint of them in the soft projec tion here and there, especially down ov?r one side of the face, with still a tendency to display most of the forehead. In the hat with a real brim, lh'elrtiVne back Is only a trine more prom inent than before, while apparent ly there is no return to the exag gerated brim of last year. Through the whole array of trring 1 adgear our attention .s r:r..-n to its harmony witn the togue f r all that is feminine and .1a!nty in the matter of drws. Thi sleek, severe felt hats that hare been in the foreground so long, will find themselves second to straws and fabrics which sound a daintier note.

Some are formed of two triangles' of contrasting shades, while oth ers are shaped to fit the neck line quite closely. There are some in narrow reversible style with fringed ends which would go we'll with the extremely tailored coat or suit. The important fact, how ever. In connection with scarfs. Is that they must be In harmony with th3 color scheme of hat, frock. -and jewelry. FLOWKRS AND JEWELRY ADD A flower often adds just the finishing touch to the ensemble. Gardenias and violets are consid ered smartest by fashion author ities, though there are many othr er dainty and efective flower dec orations to be had. The corsage type seems to lead in popularity over the simple blossom variety. except in the use of the gardenia ana similar nowers on tailored things. Costume Jewelry has asumed a most important role in the sea son's mode. There are neck- r laces, bracelets and. earrings for every type of personality and cos tume. Dainty flat Collars In gold or silrer are fonnd which will be HoweverVproprlate at all times, Tfe the sincm np-io-aaie person,? tne new -modernistic bracelets, Tery wide and Tery distinctive In de sign, will appeal. The filigree pieces, with delicate color combin ations may be bad for the daintier taste. A new number, which Is especially attractive is the ron delle. a small-cut crystaline bead in one, two, or thre strands. The Chanelle, composed of a heavier bead, metal-rimmed, Is rery smart. Jewelry may be found In al the new shades, in range to meet the demands of new spring dresses. Hose In the complexion shades are being shown now. The fair tan, blush tan and sun tan shades are all included in this classification. These strike a note of neutrality, as do the matching bags and gloves. Bags are of three styles, the pouch, en velope and vagabond, and they come in shades of blond, tan, beige, and stone. There are a few, however, in navy and red. Jewelled clasps are shown In those for dress.

(AP) CanUla Ealar Paul Lund borg, Swedish aviator, who res etted General Umberto Noblle in the Arctic last summer, will be in Portland for a dag&ext month Sportswear undeniably Is grow ing more and more an important factor In the average American woman's dress. It has become something of a habit and that much as certain, whatever the reason. . It is argued that the fair sex, one and all, is so athletic or, at least, sports-minded, and spends so jnuch time in the open that sports clothes naturally have be come the requisite of suitable and comfortable dress. Knitted garments, it Is assert ed,, have proved to be the most practical in travel and the travel habit has increased extensively. Thus sports clothes for informal day wear win out at home and abroad. EVERYONE FOLLOWS FAsraox ' There are theorists who still claim woman is but a tool of fash Ion, and they insist that Paris has simply sponsored knitted things and there's an end on It every one following meekly in the di rection of her pointed finger. Each or any of these reasons Is sound, but Inasmuch as fashion Is expressive of the times and art Is Interpretative of the modern spirit, styles are first of all color ful and then practical hence the fad for knitwear, so especially at tuned to these requirements. Jersey already has been classi fied as one of the most classic daytime materials.' But other knitted fabrics have appeared in avequ windows in one-piece dresses and ' coated frocks that are a real Incentive to assembling the spring wardrobe. Two lightweight woolen sleeves in a jaeket costume are passe. The 1929 model either is a sleeveless dress with a coat, or a long sleev ed frock and a' jacket without sleeves for the simple reason of eliminating that too warm feeling JEWELRY EMPHASIZED The Importance of the roundel In spring Jewelry fashions is em phasized again and again in all the lines.
