ABOUT TOWN

White "Corded" Rubber Raincoat with new high collar, worn with white rain beret by Jean Howard, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer player.

Mayo

Mayo's have quite a reputation for making smart hats, and if there is any special shape hat you want for the coming Spring" Just go to Mayo's and they will turn out for you anything that you want. I have seen, also some nice light hats for children and please remember, they even look after the men-folk.

Lane Crawford

Smart and comfortable shoes are not always easy to get, and as there is nothing more annoying than wearing uncomfortabla shoes, a visit to Lane Crawfords, as they have just received a new shipment.

They have them in white and brown kids and these are priced At $16.75 and another style that took my fancy was a white pun- ched buckskin with a medium heel, this should be very comfort- able for walking. the price was only $19.75.

Bandals, seems to be again popular as there were quite a few in this style, priced from $23.50 to 27.50.

Eunice

These attractive little salona in the Peninsula Arcade are doing all they can to meet the demand for gowns, hats, and coats that are smart, and at "the same time reasonable enough" in price to make them avaliable even for the alenderest dress budget. The "Eunice", cut has long been an accepted factor in smart clothes by the discrimina- ting womenfolk of the Colony and it is not surprising to know that even models from London, Paris, and New York are rigidly

one which looks the most promising for the coming season, Stiff silks, like faille, taffetas and bengaline, are brilliant examples. Real evening gowns are dong, slenderising, cling- ing creations that flatter everyone who wears them.

Tho 1994 arrivals, to be found in the tantalising pre-views, are all and more than any worhan could dream about. They are made of yards and yards of ruffles, pleat- ings, ruches, lace-trimmed flutings; and what they do for the party gadabouts is really something to: get excited about. And when these gowns come home in their long in- triguing boxes, wrapped in reams of rustling tissue paper, life seema to be just as interesting and excit ing as it can be

The new back-to-front movement und the arrival of the more close- fitting line, are responsible for the fact that many new day dresses button up the back. This may--- and often does look extremely smart, but it is undoubtedly a lady's maid is out of the question. disadvantage in the east where a

Blouses are very much in favour just now The smartest choice you can make for morning is a high -necked blouse of silk in a darker shade than the skirt that accom- panies it. Many of the new models have small stand-up collars linked by metal clasps or tagged "boot- laces"; others are tailored exactly like shirts with the addition of basket pockets.

JEWELLED-BACK-

ED TORTOISES

Just One Of The New Ideas Seen In Paris

There are plenty of eccentric ideas about in Paris now.

Fashion and superstition seem to have a good deal in common, so one big store has the idea of showing as a side-line live tortoises with Jewelled backs.. ...Customers who enter to buy one, of the new handbags of lizard skin and chromium, or to try on a new felt or straw bonnet (bow delightfully old-fashioned this new.fashion sounds!) are sure to stop and inspect the tortoises, each of which has a mock "coat". of different stones coupled with brilliants.

Rather Terrifying

The idea is that if you buy the one bearing your birthday atone, on his back, he (or it) will bring you good-fortune!

Another quaint fashion is to have as an ornament in your hall or drawing-room a tin dog (the life-size of a bulldog), with protruding, eyes, which at a touch light up like red danger, signals. Round the dog's neck is bristling run of horsehair. Rather a terrifying Find, mascot to come upon-suddenly!
