By Tanya ROMANTICISM is the keynote of many of the smartest spring wardrobes. It is apparent In diaphanous picture frocks, in hats, which have never been more fanciful or varied, in the massive effects of oddly designed jewelry In fact it pervades almost every phase of the mode with new and alluring temptations. The keynote of Uie day is non chalant elegance. Casual but so devastatingly elegant! Believe It or not but don't deny it until you have yourself seen the salons of Paris and the smart hotels of the States, not only the profes sionally elegant are thus but the onlookers. Every woman who understands fashion knows how utterly de lightful is the unexpected In dress; what verve results from the unusual use of color con- treats; what tremendous chic is obtained by a surprising employ ment of fabric or an entirely dif ferent angle in what might other wise be a very conservative hat This season fashion has seized upon these possibilities with un common results. Fashion's love of paradox provides some of the most entertaining and at the same time wearable styles of spring and summer. Color la definitely the resort fashion news. Headstrong colors, spicy as tropic fruits, vivid as the sea and sun against which they arc designed to be worn. Always exciting, the 'sports fashions for the winter sunshine resorts have never been more brilliant than they are this season. Strong colors, pastels their delicacy en livened with strong color, white dazzllngly contrasted with one or more bold colors. The southern resort season finds white once again the fashion favorite, but white with an en tirely new personality, white used as a brilliant foil for color, white as a background for fantastic prints. Whether the scene la the deck of a smart cruise liner or the sun-drenched patio of an Im portant desert resort, white Is go ing to dazzle the eye of the beholder and flatter, as nothing else can, the creamy sun-tan com plexion of the fashionable fol lower of the sun. Pictured is a new shorts cos tume of an Interesting printed fabric with a white ground. Here the vivid color of red Is applied In a gay print, and the dark buttons placed to give a flattering slim look through the hips, match the color of the prinL One of the newest examples of the advance sports fashion of color used to make white whiter, and the whole costume more striking. Off to the sunshiny places of the world are going cottons gay In pattern' and Interesting in weave, as well as linens often of eg Of Suitabl Lamb Is W And Delicious Meat U Pppv Of All fh Roasts With Its Exceptional Flavor Elaborate Dinner Br Jenny Rccd N Economics Editor !fl of lamb, roasted to a main dish suitable : '' toner. no niaUcr how 1 , flabora'e the meal flamb Is a meat of tx- Pirate flavor, and ; nd delicious.

And fashionables agree that there is a certain freshness and crisp Immaculate quality about washable sports things for active wear, that Is unequalled for an effect of perfect smartness. All the new southern clothes give one a sense of exhilaration. It arises, perhaps, from the way In which they are fashioned. From them one gnlns an impres sion pf freedom of motion. Nearly all the dresses have skirts cut to give them a swing at tho hem. The fullness starts below the hips. Necklines aro likely to be high except In cases where they are frankly designed for sun-tanning.
