& - for spring. And little daughters will PAGE TWEN1 Y-EIGR 1 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1929 ee Shoes INSIDE INFORMATION == on By their accessories, you will know the smart women of fashion. Because upon these little whims of _ the mode, spring smartness depends .and-fashionables have come to know their importance. It is these little things that are so loved by the French woman, She selects her handbags with the most infinite care, her hose must be the correct shade and of enviable sheer- ness, her jewels must first of all be her type, and secondly, they must be appropriate to the time and place they are worn. It is this careful at- tention to costume detail that has made the French woman admired the world over. And {it is this same attention to the accessories of the mode that is making the American woman a very important personality in the realm of fashion. This season when she sets about on her hunt for smart new acces- sories, ghe will be amazed at the feminizing influence on spring fash- ions. Concerning Neckwear In neckwear especially, is this re- turn to things feminine noted. For collars have returned on spring frocks and the neckwear depart- ments all over town are showing crispy, fresh new collar and cuff sets with ingeniously placed frills and tucking and no end of lace. _ They tell us that never has lace been so good as this season. It doesn't seem to matter how elabor- ate the styles are in. lace neckwear just so they have good lines and are properly fashioned. -- . Gloves are Novel Gloves may come and gloves may £0, but the simple washable pull-on goes about its smart fashion way as nonchalantly as ever. However, this season, more than ever before, fast- enings are individual and interest- ing. Even though many gloves go in for intracteness in the general styling, fancy decoration is notice- able by its absence. They are tailor- ed, to be sure, but never is it severe, rather it is a novelty, simplified and smartly tailored. er We can always depend on Worth to do the unusual. This spring he introduces an extremely smart glove, reminiscent of Cavalier days, with its gauntlet cuffs which reach above the elbows of some of the newest spring frocks. These gloves are most practical, too, as they are tubbablé and of the pull- on variety. Handbags of Leather The "big three" of the handbag family for spring are boxcalf, Mo- rocco and embroidered silks. Some of the very smartest handbags we have ever seen are 'the tailored types the stores are showing for spring in calf. Under arm and pouch styles of calfskin are trimmed with twisted leather and large buttons. For more formal use, fabric bags are presented. Beige moire with metallic and colored thread em- broidery combined with leather ap- plique; Beauvais on black moire; pastel crepe de chines with deli- cate tracery of gold and silver threads, mounted with shell frames and rigid shell handles. Tiny WE IN TH The more we see of young femin- ines, the more impressed we are wit their importance in the world of fashion. Mothers with little daugh- ters will delight in the cunning things that the stores are showing simply adore strutting about in fash- ions that were designed especially for them by some of the mest fam- ous Parisian juvenile couturieres. For little girls nowadays occupy a very important position in the mode. The ensemble idea; that has be- come such an important fashion with mother and older sister, is a very smart one for little girls for spring, . 1929, One' adorable little ensemble that we noticed in one of the shops was of green broadcloth, both the hat and the coat, and was trimmed in a smart modernistic design down the front of the coat and around the up-turned brim of the hat, in, the same fabric in white. The coat"fea- tured low inverted pledts. , Coats Use Capes Spring would not be spring for many a little girl unless her new coat boasted a cunning cape or flow- ing scarf. There are many new cape treatments on coats for little fashion- ables. Some adorable ones have cape§ outlined in flat fur. "* Other smart little ensembles are fashioned after those worn by little Fernch. * fashionables of importance. The frocks are all hand made of ex- quisite crepe de chine and the little coats match or complement them and are very smart in flannel and . kasha, Mother introduced the jacket frock only this past season _ and already jacket ensembles of gaily printed silk are much in favor for little girls for spring. One of the most note- worthy in our estimation has a cunn- ing little yoke pleated skirt and a tuck-in blouse with a pleated fill 4 This, they say, is one of the most per, green, [ASHIONS NOTICE E STORES flattering of costumes for the young girl. We saw another fipger-tip en- semble that will be of interest to the mother with a daughter around the |b ages of 12 to 14. This has a hip- length coat and a flounced skirt of copper-colored flat-crepe: - The upper section of the bodice was beige, with chenille embroidery in tones of cop- blue and lavender. And then, to throw about the neck for warmth or fashoin's sake, a scarf, with borders of beige and embroidery finished ends. It is hard to determine the why and wherefore of this . . . whether older sister would appear in a girlish guise or the younger girls desire to look older. Be that as it may, the flared line is a very important one in little girls' frocks, with back fullness especially favored. Adorable little afternoon frocks in flat crepe, geor- gette and chiffon are equally chic, with or without sleeves. Tailored Themes Important Little tailored suits of tweed in tans, blues and grays have yoke flared skirts and tuck-in blouses of silk' or handkerchief linen in white and pastel shades. These blouses are simply tailored, some with plain boy- ish collar and ties, others with bows and still others with the very. im- portant frills, Only clever French ingenuity could create the smartly sophisti- cated, yet adorably youthful, hats that the stores are showing for little daughters and junior misses. One of the loveliest decorative touches this spring are the tucks called "'nervures'" by the French that outline a pattern. Leaf pat- terns are the smartest. A rose chiffon afternoon dress has its entire girdle portion tuckea in oak leaf pattern and the edges us the top flounce repeat the design. i -arried d in 'all widths and sizes 2: somes yho want to go- do-without fatigue Look like a Mion Doltars Cost but #5 mis@ BOSE We can satisf| fo the most exact- ing taste with Enna Jetticks as they are carried in a big variety of modish patterns Style to Fit Every Eye. _Agnes Style depends on fit as well as pattern.

A Refined Pose, But Stupid We were discussing the problem of persuading the public to -attend a Church function, and the logical sug- gestion was offered. "I never read advertisements," in- terposed the refined voice' of our chairman. "Where did you buy your new coat, Mary dear?" asked one of the ma- trons, "At Blank's--" "How did you know it was there?" Before Mary's smiling 'admission was made, her questioner went on to say: "If we took only the very evi- dent advantages of advertising you would be wrong, for any intelligent shopper knows that advertising saves her hours of time every week and that it lowers prices by attracting volume of business and by public competition." ig "But think of our public services, the extensions of banking, the facili- ties for travel, the safeguards of in- surance, the broadening of all forms of communication. Instead of posing as a non-reader of advertising, my dear, think what the consequences really would be if daily newspapers were forced to suspend their adver- tising 'only for one week." The Lesson of Sorrow Sorrow has not been given us for sorroWw's sake, but as a lesson which we are to learn somewhat, which once learned, it ceases to be It is a general popular error to suppose the loudest complainers for the public to be the most an- sious for its welfare.--Burke. (3 SV Men must change their headwear this spring--if they wish to be in the height of fashion, : The most radical change will be the tendency toward narrower brims, ranging in size from 174 ¢to 2)4 ins, ; Brictly summarized the'styles will be as follows: (1) In snap brims thg tapered crown and narrow brim will prevail, (2) Slightly curled brim with raw or 'welt edges, (3) Bound edge Homburgs. (4) The ever-recurring crusher which will be worn by the younger fellow. (5) The derby with little deviation from a year ago, Caps in Smaller Shapes Then too, there will be the felt wool crusher, with close-fitting crown in pearl, grey, tan and black and the small shaped caps, shown largely in light colored twecds. From the above you can take your pick of headwear for spring, but whatever you do go to that storc which specializes on fitting and color selection, for the ensemble may- be correct in every respect, but the wrong hat certainly will spoil the picture of sartorial correctness, If the hat makers are correct in , that wears the TAPERING CROWN their predictions the trend will be largely toward brown, with medium and light shades prevailing. There also will be the deeper tones, but these will be shown in lesser, quan- tities. That means that there will be fewer light greys and more of the darker tones. Snap Brims Still Favored The snap brim promises to be as big a seller as ever, at least with the young men. Most of these styles will be shown with the raw edge, although there will be a generous showing of the welt-edge hat with the brim up all around and a single crease in the centre, The man who desires to look his best at all times will turn to the Homburg. This is a staid, conserva- tive type, yet puts a man on his dig- nity at all times. The derby which has been doomed from season to sea- son, still remains with us. Now and then there is a revival of this style and it is possible that the college man will help keep this, mode alive. Favor Softer Braids As for straws there is a growing tendency toward the softer braids, particularly in milans, panamas and leghorns. The milan will be shown in natural tones as well as pastel shades 'of tan, brown, green, grey, blue and ever orchid. These will be offered in telescope models to be worn with the brim down all around, dipped or turned up. The makers, however, tell us that the proper way to wear such hats is with the brim turned down. In line with the narrow brim felt hats one maker reports unusual suc- | cess in the sale of Panama hats treated similarly, with centre crease, black band and narrow snap rim, The optimo shape, with marked tenden- cies toward smaller crowns and nar- rower brims, however, will form the bulk of Panama hat business. Natural Shades in Leghorns In leghorns the natural shade will prevail, showing new effects in the weaving. This change is expected to stimulate the sale of such headwear. In the sennits there will be the modern style of sailors. As for shapes and sizes of crowns and brims there will be very little. deviation from a year ago. Instead of gaudy stripes, such as have been seen in recent years there is a marked ad- herence to the conservative stripes and contrasting colors. About thirty per cent of the hats will show black bands. JAPANESE WEDDING GOWNS ELABURATE Toronto, March 22. -- Rev. Wm Waller and Mrs, Waller, who have been 38 years in Japan, write to Can- adians interested in missions, con- cerning a wedding party at an out- station : It will be noticed in the photo- graph of this wedding group that al- though the bride (formerly one of the kindergarten teachers) and he friend are all in their becoming na- tive Japanese costume, most of the men wear our western style ot clothes. This is typical of Japan to- day. 'The bride's dress stands out thick. with silk-batting and is flowered around the bottom. After the wed- ding ceremony she will never wear this dress again except on the foli- lowing Januar: 2nd and 3rd, when she dons it to call on her friends. As it' is very expensive and is worn so little, the poorer class, which means the vast majority, rent the regal . for the octasion. Ladies of the no- bility and those attached to the court, as well as members 'of the wealtiiiest families of Tokyo wear clothes similar to those of Canadian women. The uniform of school girls also is more and more western in style, but the great mass of Japanese women still cling to the costume of their mothers and grandmothers, WOMEN DOMINATE FURNITURE STYLES Toronto, March 22.--That women's influence has dominated the styles. of furniture since the period of Charles .» is 'the assertion of Miss Ruth M. Howe, who is giving lectures at the Royal Ontario Museum on "Period Furniture," a subject, she points out, in which women are becoming mote and more interested every day. The furniture of the period of Charlesl., and that preceding that period was made essentially for man's use, she declared, Women's tastes were not consid- ered at all. The chairs were square, and substantial, and except in rare instances, were not upholstered. With the restoration of Charles I, the in- flux of continental tastes gave some prophecy of coming luxury and color in furniture, but it was still furniture for the male members of the family.

Advertised as "father's forbidden i§| favorite," it is being produced by the Hoboken Theatrical Company, in which Christopher Morley, hereto- fore known chiefly as a writer of whimsical essays and novels, is the moving spirit. Sixty-two years ago last October, at Niblo's Gardens, down on what would now be described as lower Broadway, the world premiere of "The Black Crook" was given and at the same time New York got its first glimpse of "ladies in tights." The critics panned the plot of the as "a steal from Faust, with miscell- piece--which Mr. Morley describes aneous thieving from Shakespeare"-- but the tights got 'em. They were al- most lyrical in their praise of "the staging, etc." About a month after the opening, word got out that it was a highly im- moral affair. "And," says Mr. Mor- ley, "from then on, it was a sell-out." fter 16 months, it was still going strong in laté December, 1867, when Charles Dickens came over. To his biographer, John Forster, he wrote a very funny description of it--how "the powers of lightness (in no skirts whatever)" came to the rescue of the hero. .
