You Will Soon Be Needing Tweeds
T last our English summer seems to have mastered the ' art of leaving us before it has arrived. This is surely a feat worthy of "Alice in Wonderland.” Those summer clothes of yours which have been skulking in the cupboard will be lucky if they get the chance of greeting a few piping hot days bc- fore they are packed away again.
During July and August it is usually rather hot and sticky work looking at winter tweeds and cloth coats covered with fur, but just lately I have been tempted to buy these models for my holidays next month.
The Ronald Morrel coat and dress that Angrave' has sketchesÏ for you are really most attractive. There is nothing mean or skimpy about the enát, It is man-size in thick rich brown duveteen, with a good turnover collar, flaps and patch pockets in shiny brown pony skin.
The flaps on the collar can be worn up or down..

The dress is of brown wool- len material embroidered brown and beige wool. The embroidery is arranged in sunray stripes down the front of the skirt, which gives a very. slimming effect, and the yoke of the bodice, as well as the sleeves, Is made entirely of hand-knitted fabric In the same brown and beige shaded wool.

THERE are all sorts of amusing fabrics in this collection. One contry sult is made of a very thick Robbley woolien material striped in Indefinite green and brown shades. The Ught-fitting jacket has a square collar and is worn over a dark brown crepe shirt with neat knife pleating at the neck,
A good-looking black velvet sult, to wear for extra grand tuncheon and cocktail parties, has a knee-length double-breasted coat tightly waisted and fastened with six buttons. The skirt is plain and slim and the blouse is of the heaviest while faille nely embroidered in emerald green silk.
Some of these models were inspired by the holiday Ronald Morrel spent In Spain and Morocco. There is a little black woollen suit inspired by the Spanish shoeblacks. The black woollen skirt and bolero jacket fil skintight, and there is a wide belt shaped like the briefest possible waistcont in scarlet velvet and a white tucked linen shirt.
Another blark cloth day dress was inspired, so I was told, by a wrought-iron gate near Seville. It is embroidered in velvet squiggles that might remind you of wrought-iron, or again they might not,
A green, woollen dress as bell, buttons and collar in seariet ail-cloth, and a three-quarter-length coat in brown check tweed cut on'murai geners -bus-lines-is-worn-with-a-plain skirt plented-al-the idea and a scarlet shirt.
Embroidery is one of the most important features of this collection, and is very ane. Velvet, rires, dull crepe, and lome are the favourite evening materials.
Morrel says he is expreting a good American season, and no wonder, since one of the models he sold to America last season was copied 5,000 times.

you are looking for tweeds to protect you from the mists of Scottish moors, or the ardours of English shooting parties, you will have to go a long way before you can beat Winnifred Mawdesl ey.
The tailored men's herring-bone suit sketched on this page is a very good example, The jacket is single-breasted and the plain skirt hos à wide box pleat in front. The underneath part of the pleat, is buttoned from well above the knees to the hent, so that when it is necessary to do any rough walking or climbing where you need extra width all you have to do is to unfasten the buttons,

"We would take this opportunity of expressing our gratitude to you for all you did in enabling us to make our 1935 Ball one that none of those who attended may forget. Wo take pride in the conviction that it was, with- out question, one of the most successful functions of its kind that has ever taken place in the Colony.
You will no doubt be pleased to hear that a large number of our guests approach us every day-all loud in their praise of the splendid appearance of your ballroom for the occasion, the excellence of the refreshments, the speed. and efficiency of your service, and all the other features that contributed to such an enjoyable evening.

The fruit should be free from blemish, and one of the chief things to look out for Is any trace of those small, sunken dark spots which are the outward sign of bitter rot. The inward signs of this disease are even more unpleasant, and any apple which is at all suspicious-looking should be rejected on, and because of the spot.
