Muff Cuff Interesting. New York, November 8th. Tea time at college, just at candle light, is perhaps the most enjoyable time of the day. The lonely girl from the West meets the lonely girl from the East, and friendships spring up which often endure through life. Many and varied are the topics of conversation at these late afternoon gatherings clothes, of course, come in for a large share of attention, and often a girl with a small clothes allowance is given a hint or two which helps her to im prove her appearance with little ad ded cost. THE GIRL WITH DEFT FINGERS College and boarding school girls often enjoy an hour or two of sew- ing new ana tnen: it varies ine monotony of study and enables them to add effective little touches of their own to irock and blouse, ren dering them somewhat different, and more suited to their own per sonality. At tea the other afternoon, one girl wore a simple serge jumper frock made with short full skirt and sleeveless overblouse and an under- waist of dark blue crepe Georgette. The guimpe was made with a high collar finished at the top with a tiny frill of white; and closed straight down the front with small dull gold buttons. Narrow black moire rib bon formed the girdlo, closing on the left side in a small flat bow with loner streaming ends. Six bands of the moire ribbon had been set on to the skirt at graduated intervals, givingthe effect of flounces, and ad ding wondertully to the appearance of the simple frock. The ribbon, which the wearer had herself applied made the commonplace dress most attractive and unusual. VARIETY IN COLLARS AND CUFFS The simplest frocks or blouses may be made attractive and becom ing by adding contrasting cutis, or an unusual collar: these may be made removable and others substi tuted at will, thus achieving a pleas- ng change when the dress is becom ing somewhat worn. It is an easy matter to fashion any numbe r of wear there will be one or plain black satin or taffeta; fo: afternoon and informal evening sfffairs, club luncheons, and tea3, a guimpe of crepe Georgette,' chiffon cloth, or net, in a harmoniously 1 contrasting shade will render the costume dressy enough and most becoming. THREE PIECE SIJITS Another convenience is the three- piece, semi-taiiorea suit consisting of coat and skirt, combined with blouse of satin, chiffon-cloth, crepe de Chine or other contrasting mater ial, in the same color ; or a shade that combines well with the color of the suit. A suit like this is easily fashioned atj home, as there is abso lutely no sign of the old-time tailor ed stiffness padding, .and various The Happenings in Nearby Towns Events of the Week Briefly f Told by Our Correspondents Which Will Interest Many; Read What Our Writers Have to Say. flak City Briefs Good, SOEHS Showing the Muff Cuff ADVANCE WINTER STYLES for street, informal afternoon affairs or church, easily reproduced at home with little expense from the New December McCALL PATTERNS The new farhions for Winter beautifully il lustrated.

The touch of fur which is so much a part of these suits just now, renders them smart and becoming as well as warm. Among the novelties noticed on many of these fur trimmed suits the "muff cuff." These are wide and flaring, made of fur or a fur fabric, and ar ranged so that the hands may be slipped into them quite a sone would use a muff. This idea is especially practical for the suit for shopping or general wear, also for the heavy coat, as there is no danger of losing a valuable muff. MUFF CHAINS ONCE MORE While speaking of the muff it is interesting to note that the muff cord or chain Ts again in favor. One sees it often; knotted satin and moire ribbon often form the cord; the re gulation twisted silk cord is favored too, and the jeweled chain is smart and effective. - Fur trimmed petti coats and pantalettes are among the season's startling novelties; while the idea is somewhat ridiculous, a glimpse of the fur edged petticoat showing -beneath the heavy suit is nevertheless attractive and fetching.
