Faris couturiers are having great success this season with those little Summer frocks that are neither distinctly for sports nor in the morning or afternoon class One would not be shocked at meet ing them anywhere, from the pesage at Auteull to the beach at Biarritz. Which only goes to com firm the general feeling that the smart Summer resorts are less ex clusively dedicated pyjamas and evening gowns than usual

white silk gabardine suits, worn with blue and white gingham-striped silk blouses, are much liked for town-and-country wear.
