Lane, Crawford's. It is indeed reassuring to know that the new fashions have not obliterated our feet. Whatever the skirt length, footwear is just as important a part of the picture as before-in fact the new hemline draws attention to shoes at once. Lane, Crawford's are showing this week what will be Shoes worn this coming season. this season, I notice, are all of the simplest styles so while our gowns are often more elaborate, our feet. still follow the classic path of sim plicity. As a matter of fact there are, after all, a limited number of shoes styles that are within the bounds of good taste and smartness, For that reason certain models become unchallenged. favourites. Take, for instance, the apers pump, the one strapped pump and the oxford seen at this store; not only would it be difficult to improve on the beauty of these, but it would also be hard to substitute for their practicability. The "Lotus" and Delta,' the well-known British makes, are very well represented; the latter are made in extra-wide sizes and are fitted with storm-welt soles.

These new bats show wider brims and higher. crowns which are emphasized this season. Tams are made in more expensive materials this year and, therefore, are used for more dressy occasions. Many of the "Catalina" models, are made with double brime which are proving so popular at coming to all. I noticed some very the present moment, and are so be- chic hats made up entirely of strips of velvet ribbon; these, I thought, lovely. As regards colour, all the latest pastel shades are being used for these delightful and novel hats.

These hoods can also be used for men who will be in a position to obtain a good quality velour hat at very moderate prices. The acces England and Piris are the last sories that have just arrived from word and are well worth a visit. The sale of summer hats continues: quite a number of models are being sold for $3.50.
