TOUR comfort is being given due consideration, you will be glad to know, in the matter of sports clothes this year.

There are all manner of lovely and flattering things made just for those in-between days when it has heretofore always been so hard

to dress just right.

Too mild for a fur coat, too tald for an early autumn suit, you really need sports things that will not overheat and yet keep you warm enough,

It is for these days of active sports that a whole line of sports things have been created. You need not sacrifice a single speck of your girlish charm to be garbed most practically for golf, hikes, autoing or watching outdoor events this winter.

Many lightweight jersey frocks have tweed. lined coats. Many of the short reefer coats are soft as silk in the hand, but warm as toast to the wearer. Fur touches up many a costume to keep your neck nice and warm and your hands cozy.

Among the foremost of the smart costumes for in-between days woolen frocks stand high. Many of these have a way of using heavy. warm tweed for the skirt and part of the waist with the upper part of the waist in matching tweed in a lighter weight. Over these you can slip a coat of the heavy tweed, if you need it.

I.

BLACK and white diagonal tweed makes

a charming coat frock of this type, a boon to you if you want to be perfectly comfortable inside and outside the house.

The heavy tweed, with predominating white. makes the skirt and part of the wait. Similarly. a black tweed, in the same diagonal weave, forms the top of the frock. The frock buttons around the body and then bells with self material..

There are neat revers to the little neckline, with a collar of the material across the back. Culs are, made of the lighter-toned material, in trim, fitted form.

A little beret is fashioned of the lighter toned tweed, with a front band of the darker, and a scarf of the lighter has its enda dark. It is the kind of frock you could wear with perfect ar aurance to any game and just the right frock for donning when you start out on a like, per "haps ending somewhere for les in a cozy ins

along the road.

II. IF you are thinking of motoring much this winter, especially if you mean lo drive a sports model car that keeps you health ily out in the open, you should look at the new four-piece suits.

These have a jacket suil, tailored to the queen's taste, a blouse, usually of some decora tive type, and a full-length matching great cont which is warm enough to withstand the most rigorous of winter blash.

One of these four-piece suits is made of Bur

gundy red tweed, in dull, pebbly weave. Is coat is hiplength, and belted, its skirt has quite a flare, and its little blouse is of red and beige, in lacy pattern, long-sleeved and Snished in a round, demure neck.

The topcoat is quite fitted and has a tremendous flare to it, enough of a skirt portion to thoroughly cover your knees, which I know you

will consider a boon. There is a handsome. skunk collar, large and luxurious, so your can can't possibly get cold when it is turned up.

To top this outfit, a little beret of matching red felt has a little cockade of beige and red feathers stuck up at one side of the front.

III. If you are a golfer, you will be inter

ested in the roustabout windbreak made

in a lovely green suede. It laces up to a Prince of Wales collar with dark green lacings, and its overbanding around the waistline is woven light and dark green and fits snugly over any waist

There is a little beret of the light green suede, monogrammed in dark. With this outfit you can wear a heavy dark green tweed skirt, of the wrap-around or of the flaring type, and some of the new golf shoes that have decorative tongues hiding their lacing.

IV. FOR college wear, you will welcome a little ports outfit in rust-red jersey which is much more dressy than most little suita of this type

The skirt has fullness from the waistline, a new wrinkle, and the jacket is a windbreaker that gathers into a wide hip band that can be worn at normal waistline if you look better with - it that way. There is a little tailored blouse under the windbreak, made of plain rust jer Bey, with a vestre and collar of striped rust and white jersey: The beret is very new, a shirred jersey version of the winter's most popular bit of headgear..

VIF you want to be warm as toast for out..

door sports events, but not feet bungle- some, there are reefer jackets this year. made of polo cloth, camel's hair, dromedary cloth and other happy materiale.

They have skirts of the same cloth and the same colors, but in a different design. If you have a plain colored jacket, you should have a striped or plaid skirt, or vice versa.

One of these is Rusman in its feeling, with its reefer coat buttoned up one side with leather buttons. The skirt is made of shadowed diag onal striped material in the same rich beige as the jacket. That lost freedom, which owes its disappearance to the prevailing femininity in tashions, stager a successful comeback in the skirts and jackets that are designed for sports. There is a gay colorfulness to them which be longs only to the twentieth century athletic pro- gram. While evening clothes are interested

in glamour, sports attiré cultivates smartness.
