Satisfaction is the reaction of well-dressed coeds to the latest in tailored street clothes. For, ac cording to the announcements from the "powers that be" in the realm of style, almost anything goes, as far as color is concerned. When it comes to the choice of color, it is best to seek those which are most becoming and to which we are most responsive. If you genuinely don't like yellow, for in stance, then don't wear it, no matter how smart it may be When you lead that it is smart to combine this color with that, go very carefully in choosing the shades of the colors to be sure that they harmonize. It's smaiter to wear three col ors tnis year than two, and they can be quite unrelated, like gray, brown and blue, or blue, brick red, and yellow, or the good old red. white, and blue. The whoie ques tion resolves itself into how to use them. Never has there been so much variety in tailored street clothes 9 B O O O WEAR THINNER RELTS It is bells such as these that will be worn on light weight wool frocks this sprirg. The top one is of bright green patent leather with nn extra piece drawn thru a metal buckle giving the bow ef fect. The lower one is made of many strands of gray leather and has a piece of black patent leather across the front. Either is ideal for a gray dress. as at the present time. One may be well-dressed In most any com bination of plain or plaid material. Many man-tailored tweeds are ex tremely good, also camel's hair coats, and the tailored box coat. Exquisite English box-coats are of sharkskin or flannel or tweed. These coats are boxy cut, fly front, and back vent with patch pockets. Color is added to this ensemble by wearing a crepe dress of dusky pink and accessories in wine. For the slim coed a suit with a short cut-away jacket of navy with wide reveres and edges bound with braid is very new. White or red accessories are worn with the navy. If the jacket is in gray or beige, red and brown accessories are worn respectively. One very striking coat model is entitled "Cossack General." It is in navy tweed reefer, with fitted waist that is double breasted with a flare skirt.

Plua screen preview Laurel a Hardy "The Bohemian Girl" ORPHEUIY) Afternoon Frocks Show Variety of Color, Detail Assembling of Costume Is Important in Creation of Attractive Effect. Pitfalls are numerous In this season's selection of afternoon at tire, so those on the campus who want to list smartness as one of their prime qualities must beware of how they choose their spring costumes. It's all a matter of how we put our costumes together. Here's an example of what to do to attain that distinctive and sought-after smartness. It's a costume made up of white silk pique jacket and vest with scalloped edges combined with an all-around plaited dull crepe skirt. Another striking afternoon dress of black wool boasts a black satin jacket, coming to the waist line in front with swallow-tails in back and enormous shirred leg- of-mutton sleeves. Navy sheer is the basic mate rial of another afternoon dress that will catch the fancy of the most casual observer. It is made with front plaits and a tight fit ting skirt. Tne waist has a deep net yoke and short sleeves. It may be transformed into a street dress by adding a hip-length which is fitted in at the waist and has long sleeves. Shirtwaist styles are also at the height of their populartiy this sea son. They are shown in colors, one especially smart had a long black skirt with a blue plaited waist. There is a chance for every one to look just too utterly wrong, or as smart as smart. These exam ples show that it's not Just a mat ter of money or the kind of clothes. It's the way we put the parts together and the colors we choose. Many tmes it is possible to change one outfit so that each time It is worn it appears entirely different. The rules of color apply as much in afternoon wear as in sports attire. Contrasts are al ways to be desired, but in choos ing the shades that are to be con trasted it is necessary to watch more carefully than ever for the omnipresent pitfalls. Gay prints will be dominate in the ifeld this spring. Coeds can go to town in a print worn under a dark coat or detachable wool cape, set off with bright accessories; or she can be well-dressed In a print with a flash of white accents for warmer weather. Figures on prints range all the way from the delicacy of pen trac ings to sharp vivid patterns. There is choice between dainty garden sprays of tulip, mint spray, mar guerite, or daisy and dashing fig Is Your Frat or Sorority Giving a Dance?
