I Mnoiai (him? the patterns are El in.- sm.nll checks, mixture effects land inobtrusive overplaids are princl- I pally shown. The large DlocK piaia ei- fects are shown in the better fabrics and more costly styles. This, however does not make them more fashionable' simply more distinctive as an appeai to the woman who wants to pay a greater price and wants something dif ferent to express her lavish outlay In the Juvenile styles, the modes for the little fellow, there seems to be less of the ndvelty styles than hereto fore. Even for the little fellow from 5 to S years, the tendency is toward norfolk models similar to those worn by school boys. That means that such models as The Middy, Oliver Twist, Russian, Eton and button-on trouser effects will be less popular than they have been, but they are by no means entirely eclipsed by the norfolk styles. Many mothers pre rer to keep the youngest, "her baby," as long as possible and such women will hardly hasten to discard the "cu ter" novelty models. Last winter velvets and velours were very popular in the juvenile suits. This fall they show less strength in fashion edicts, and the more striking woolen weaves will pass them in popularity. Corduroys are shown In the moder ately priced school suits In shades of wine, mode, grey, fawn and tan in nor folk models.. In the little fellows' suits, the knit materials promise to be very popular. This idea will follow the woman's ap proval of such knit fabrics as tricol lette and jerseys and they will be shown in very rich solid tone shades, In an endless number of color tones. These garments are rather simple as to trimming effects, and are shown principally in Middy and Russian mod els. In the Juvenile Overcoats as well as the overcoats for school boys, the leading styles are of ihe Raglan effect with set-in sleeves. These coats are either boxy or full draped, according to the length, and both the knee- length and three-fourth length mod els are shown. Most at them have the slash pockets though many regulation set-in pockets are also shown. The fab rics in these coats include all of the standard weaves in both plain color and patterned effects. Many overcoats for the older boys are shown in Junior ulsterette styles. These either have belt backs or gath ered backs, and follow very closely the styles for men. In these coats, fabrics of rougher textures are shown such as coarse tweeds, unsheared weaves Shetlands, Chinchillas, etc. Little, if any, change is noted in boys' hats, For school boys we have standard shapes of telescope and Al pines, with less tendency to turn the brims down into rakish shapes than heretofore. Qaps are still increasing in vogue among the school boys who love to insinuate the college character istics into his apparel. In Juvenile hats the middy, ran rah" and tam shapes are leaders. Some streamer hats are shown for the very little chaps. Fall Headwear. Styles in men's headwear :a general proposition goes to one ex treme or aiiother. They are either "natty" or "nutty." By that I mean the fashion oracles either prescribe very elaborate or distinctive shapings and high colors, or else they jump back to the most reserved styles. In the coming fall subdued effects are the vogue. This tendency puts the derby hat in line to regain a great measure of its popularity of several seasons ago. The derby has been timidly knock ing at the door of fashion favor since last winter. This winter it gives great promise of being very popular. The most fashionable derby shape prescribed for the season is a full Eng lish crown with a medium flat set brim. This will be the ultra fashion able shape and from this center style will be the various other proportions to meet a becoming effect for the ef ferent types of lineaments with which fashion must compromise. That means that the styles will include a diver sity o fproportions from the strict let ter of the feature model down to a regulation conservative. You can, how ever, depend upon smaller effects be ing the really popular thing for Hits season. JOURNAL WANT ADS PAT BOYS!

QUALITY FOOTWEAR at The Fall Shoes are Better Styles REASONABLE COST WHITE 3A V HOUSE jh S shoes my J Fall shoes for men are showing more variety this season than any time since the war time regulations for conserva tion put a halt to the free hand of shoe designers. However, this variety is not mani fested in the vari-colored combinations of lowers and uppers, as was in vogue when the restraining edicts were pla ced. There are very few of thhe two tone effects shown, but various are the shades in solid tone finishes, and fan ciful trimming designs, and perfora tions are widely shown. The Brogue shoe a heavily orna mented style, will still be in vogue this fall and winter, as it was this spring. In fact, the heavy appearance of this shoe seems to fit more appropriately into the scheme of things for winter than for the milder months. It's a sensible as well as pleasingly ornate style and a great relief from the r ther subdued styling we have had to adopt in our shoes in recent seasons. Then, too, there are other shoes that ingratiate themselves because of their more simple, and possibly more refined smartness. These shoes are or tne lungusn ami. swing lasts in very graceful shapings. Such shoes show a tendency toward more pointed toes. There seems to be no halfway compromise in the styling of the toes this season. They are eith er of the broad" Blum effects as we seo on the Brogue shoes, or else the point ed toe styles. Neither Bull Dog cfr ects or the medium rounded toe assert themselves very boldly. Brown Is the outstanding eelor an these in the russet, mahogany ami cordovan shades rather than the very dark brown or very light tans. Bla k dull finish and gunmetal finishes come next in line. Some Blucher styles are shown, run the laced effects are the most fash ionable and will be the most popular. Few button Shoes are shown for men and those that are shown are princi pally for dress wear in the patent lea ther finish. The chief leathers employed aro calf, Russia, cordovan and vici. Very dressy men are showing in creasing favor for spats and naturally this vogue shows greater strength In the fall than in the spring. These spats are mostly in the lighter shades of fawn, champagne, mode, beige and pearl. In the darker tonett there are browns, oxfords and wino color.
