Westway sportswear introduced many casual dresses, sun dresses and play clothes in the new cot tons. One matching mother and daughter set was of stripe plisse with a low, square neck ti’imined with ric-rae and a tiered squaw- type skirt on which the ric-rac trim was repeated. For the Easter parade, John ston. featured styles both for boys and girls. The boys wore such outfits as a printed gabardine coat, solid poplin pants and a white broadcloth shirt.

Only You Can Create Styles To Suit Seif Only the individual taste can truly create style or fashion, since it is not concerned with following in the wake of oth ers. Whatever an individual taste may choose, be it a stepladder or a wicker basket, will always be based on a deep personal choice, a spiritual need that Haily assesses and gives value to that particular ladder or basket. The beauty of these things is somehow transmitted through the personality of the one who chooses. POCKETS AND PETTI COATS—-accent this polish ed cotton worn ( by Mrs?' John A. Way. It’s a “Daryl original” worn over a white starched organdy petticoat. The hat is a “Paramount” white shag straw. WSD. Hat from Mrs. Greene Buchanan’s hat salon. New Spring Hats (Continued from Page 11) lime, aztec gold, meadow moss, Caroline red and Paris iris are de signed to catch the imagination if not the ete. A new combination beautiful to behold is silverhaze and cruiser gray. For those brown tones try sandbush or toasted muf fin. Be sure to add one of the basics, black or navy, both very good this season. Conversation with a local milli ner the other day revealed that buying a hat is not as easy as most male comments indicate. The trick is in selecting a hat that is “individually yours” in block, trim and material. This doesn’t mean to get in a rut with just one style but to use discerning taste in choosing a block that is right for you. Add the right trim and veiling to keep you in the fashion swim as well as flatter your costume. Thus the ability to wear hats is born. Should you he a tall person try a hat with either a straight or mushroom brom. This tends to euf your size. If you are short, reverse this procedure, use an up turned brim. Always bear in mind that a round hat is designed to widen the face while a hat trim med from the back gives stature. One trimmed from the front tends to shorten the person and elongate the face. mm OF TASTE Vor- cleaner, freshen soother smokes From any p>ack you try, aC y Buy Lucky Strikes, so toh'C, uou cant deny* They're tops you cant Tom Ganiats University of California When you come right down to it, you smoke for one simple reason . . . enjoy ment.
