Capes and More Capes

Designers arc still turning out wraps (hst are the remit of combining two Slstinctly different styles Into one garment. Tats Is an Idea carried over Iroro whiter Into spring wraps, and at long «* It bolds there is no chance of exhausting the endless variety of mpe-coata.<*pc-dolmaa* and all other •ort* of capes that make a refreshing digression from coat*. There Is variety ecjugti to suit tbe laste of erery iudlvlduul In wrap* a* In all other spring clothe*, and nearly all of them are graceful and practical. In the picture a cape appear*, gathered to a short plain yoke and having small, set-in sleeve*, or opening* for die arm*, to distinguish It from a cape analloyed with any oth^r wrap, it kas a flat, hood effect at the hack, with

a little braid trimming and a long tassel that fioluts with pride to lu value a* a finish. This cape I* narrowed at the bottom by folding It Into a box plait fastened down with hoM buttons; this Is In keeping with th« narrow skirts of lids season. The other wrap pictured Is much like s dolman. Small cloth-covered buttons and large fancy ones are cleverly placed on it. for the smaller one* aopear to fasten down box plaits that form a wjuare yoke. This Is one of a few models that are shorter In thi back than In front. The collar and sleeve opening* are faced with a heavy weave in silk In a contrasting color. Duvetyn and velours In navy and black, with facings In beige silk, make the handsomest of these wraps.

Sport Clothes to Welcome Summer

Of all the clothes with which women are preparing to welcome the coming ■umraer. and tbe boys overseas who will return with It, those In the sport etas* prove the moat ntlafylngf Good times and prosperity are written nil over them. They are of various degrees of rtchnesM as to material* and of wonderful excellence In design. Nothing expresses the woman of today quite u> well as these smart and Informal things In which she Is well enough dressed for all the happenings

of a sutuiner'n day.

Certain of the newr weaves In silk* have opened new worhls for the designers of sport clothe* to conquer. Tliesc designer* are gazing down alluring viata* which tbe loom* are creating for them and the unfolding of sport styles is growing more and more interesting. An cuttlt that may b*.- accepted a* a standard of smartness is pictured here. It Is made up of a skirt at baronet satin, white with rings tn turquoise blue lu widely scattered group- thrown upon It. The sweater of turquoise knitted silk ha* aouie new fnatures that will hold the attention. It Is one of those soft, rough, loosel; -kr-ltted affairs that lend the procession of new sweater atyies. It Is open part way down the front and a iwarf that cross.-s at the front and Is carried round the waist to tie in the back. U a port of It. Cuff*, waist and shoulder* nr* adjust, d closely to the figure by a change in the stitch, which Is dlir.-rent from that used In the body of the awoatcr. A pretty, high-necked Idouav. with a locked front, fastening with small 1

pearl buttons. Is of^flir rlgET degrra of daintiness to bear the skirt and sweater company. It Is of fine voUe and there Is a narrow band of black r'bbon about the neck, one of thora pretty. sparkling. Ilttl finishing touches that make this outfit adorablo High white canvas shoes und a brimmed hat with big, flexible crown are details of the costume that match It in character. They are to be carefully selected when the matter of sport clothes Is considered, otherwfam

they c
