Unrestrained
Colors Provide
Clothes Magnetism
A glorious lack of restraint
marks the colors of Spring. Since
in the mam, trimmings are un
derplayed, gay colors play a dou
ble part in both flattery and
magnetism. This spring women
will wear colors that were pre
viously limited to the more friv
olous accessories such as ascots
and hankies.
Tweed colors are myriad in
clear randoms that include the
entire spectrum. Many of the
popular slubbed and novelty fab
rics feature metallic threads.
Woven, overlaid, embroidered
and printed stripes often show
a second color. Cross weaves
offer great color interest.
The newest color group around
is the entire range of mauves,
from pink through mulberry
tones. Blue takes a purple cast
for a hydrangea hue which
promises to be a favortie in both
pale and deep shades. Navy, of
course, retains a strong position
in the 1955 picture; but will have
to share its dominance with
many rival blues.
Yellow is newly important,
looking pale and fresh in daffo
dil-pineapple tints. Gold con
tributes strongly to the print
and brocade line-up, and many
yellows make pleasing grounds
for printed fashions.
Crisp, clean greens achieve a
feeling of spring in many cate
gories of styles from cocktail
cottons to active sportswear.
Although green hues appear
mostly as prints on related back
grounds or as specks in random
tweeds, there is enough all-green
to be worth notice.
Convertible Suits
Lead Double Life
Making a welcome return for
spring is the suit with two pairs
of pants — with a difference.
These suits, called “convertibles”
or “threesomes,” have the con
ventional coat and one pair of
matching trousers. The second
pair comes in another color and
usually in a different weave.
This combination allows the
coat and matching trousers to
be worn as a business suit. The
coat and odd trousers supply the
owner with a tasteful outfit for
leisure wear. The coat may also
be worn with walking shorts or
with the gray flannel trousers
many prefer with sport coats.

Sportswear
For Spring
Is Colorful
As more and more men enjoy
lengthened hours of leisure,
sports wear looms ever larger in
the fashion picture. This spring
the man who wishes to round
out and up-date his casual war
drobe can choose from a com
pletely new range of clear, clean
colors, new- fabrics and a sharply
changed group of designs adapt
ed to specific sports and leisure
activities.
The new sport coats feature
lighter weights in wool and man
made fiber blends, tweeds and
shetlands in herringbones,
checks, fiberene effects, nubs
and slubs.
Many coat fabrics combine col
or patterns with weave or tex
ture patterns. Deep shades re
lieved by bright color accents are
among the style leaders. Popular
combinations are black and pink,
black and helio, cognac and deep
brown.
Stylewise, the single-breasted,
two-button sport coat continues
to lead, although the three-but-
tton % model is gaining ground, es
pecially among younger men.
Both patch and flap pockets'are
shown in the new sport coats.
Pink Is Important
Pink is an important new pas
tel in sport coats and slacks.
Light-weight worsted wool gab
ardine slacks in pink are another
instance of this color’s new popu
larity. They are intended to be
worn with sport coats of colors
other than pink. Other favored
colors in slacks to go with dark
colored jackets are yellow, mint
green and helio.
Slacks in lightweight flannel,
w’ool and blends with Orion,
gabardine and covert are shown
in solids, subdued -checks, twill
weaves, slubs and nubs.
The new slacks are pleatless
with black buckle and strap. The
trend is to trim, tapered lines.
The new blouse-type jackets
for spring have adopted an en
tirely new tone. Colors are the
brightest ever shown and novel
ty prints are solidly entrenched
Almost any pastel color that can
be named is being used—pink,
helio, light blue, mint green,
orange shades on the rust side,
sognac and sandy yellows.
Ohe of the most successful of
the novelty patterns is achieved
by the flocking treatment (flocks
of wool or rayon applied to a fab
ric rather than woven into it).
GOD
a£ kofH e '
God is everywhere! And yet we
speak of a church as God’s House.
Well, man is everywhere. His
planes soar above the clouds, his
mines tunnel through the earth,
his rails span mountains and
plains, his ships ply the seven
seas.
And yet, every man cherishes
the one place he calls home. He
cherishes it not for its location or
appearance, but for the love and
companionship he has experienced
there.
In similar spirit man has
thought it no blasphemy to call
each church the House of God.
For He Who made man in His
own image must feel the same im-i
pelling attraction for the scene of
His communion with those He
loves. *
The greatest honor you can be
stow on a friend is to invite him
into your home. Each hour of wor
ship God invites you into His.
