WOMEN'S WORLD

FOR OUR LADY READERS.

For cool days, a yachting suit of openwork white wool, left, is topped by a navy blue flannel jacket trimmed with brass buttons and patch pockets. The hat is a cartwheel sun- shade banded in blue. For active yachting, the good little sailor wears a beret, the one. shown centre of plaited hemp, trimmed with a red, white and blue cockade. The white annel suit and scarf are trimmed with tricolours, also. Very effective is Jean Patou's yachting ault made of rough but supple white wool fabric, right, with a crepe de chine blouse. It is topped by a panama.
