We call it the perfect frock for

viron* over this land, corduroy will
be one of the first to answer the call.
Not the old-fashioned kind of cor­
duroy. that was stiff and unmanage­
able, but an educated kind that has
learned it must be fine to be smart,
and lightweight and drapable, as
well as long wearing.
School and college girls know this
very new and modern corduroy a*
cordurella. while the male contin­
gent call theirs cordurex. The Latin
students in the class will understand
why. It’s just another instance how
the girls have taken of late to copy­
ing boys' fashions for corduroy,
which used to be almost exclusively
a male fabric.
And now look at it! Now whole
families go corduroy-clad these days
from father, big brother to Junior
and from mother and big sister on
down from the teen-age to the littlest
daughter of the household. Not only
have the girls taken over the fab­
ric, but they've taken it in slacks
and shirts and jackets that the boys
wear, as well as in their own femi­
nine dresses and suits.
There’s no end to the types and
styles that are fashioned of cordu­
roy. Take jackets, for example.
Pets of the campus, are the conven­
ient wear-with-everything jackets, of
the fine lightweight modem cordu­
roy, such as are shown, boy and
girl fashion, at the top of the group
illustrated. Though they go with
any kind of campus clothes, men
like them best with slacks of the
same material, but often in different
color, while the girls like free-strid­
ing skirts.
Varied types of jackets are avail­
able. There are plain, classic sin­
gle-breasted -buttoned style*, fly
front closing* with either button* or
slide fasteners, blazer types with

gan styles, fitted jackets and loose

Knitted Accessories
Is New Autumn Style
Add the fashion "touch that tells’*
to your tweeds and your plaids, your
velveteens and your corduroys, with
knitted accessories. It’s considered
smart style to match stocking cap,
scarf and gloves that are either
knitted or crocheted.
Women are crocheting their hats
also and trimming them in ruches
of loopyarn. Wide brim felts with
crochet bands or entire crochet
crowns lean also to the new trend.
Crochet handbags are enormous
in size and are worked in ways to
ensemble perfectly with the knitted
details that complement the cos­
tume.
Irish Crochet Lace and
Fine Fenise Trimming
At the lace counters you can get
circular Irish crochet by the yard
for collars and cuffs and trimming
purposes. The same is true in re­
gard to handsome Venise lace*. The
latter is also used in allover pat­
terning for blouses to wear with aft­
ernoon suits, or to top party skirts
of yards and yards of tulle.
Quilted Velvets
Very handsome and very new
looking are the coats and suits fash­
ioned of quilted fabric, especially
those in velvet and wool. The girl
going away to school will take
keen delight in a quilted velveteen
jacket to wear with her plaid skirt
