Question: When is a knicker not a knicker? Answer: When it’s a skirt. Paradoxes? No, facts. In our sport skirt. section on the fourth floor you will find a clever contrivance that is a combination of knickers, skirt and cape. One wears the kirt over the knickers out to the club and when golfing unhooks the skirt, which is a smart circular affair, and snaps about the neck as,a cape. The effect is magical! That tis a sensible, useful and good-looking garment is the uni ersal opinion , And in the same department is a skirt-and-knicker-in-one creation which is equally smart. This skirt is a straight- ine, shirred model, slashed at one side and closing with three arge buttons. When unbuttoned the knickers appear, and the skirt flies with a swagger air.
