DALLAS, Feb. 1—With a prom- I
ising outlook to establish new rec-
ords both for wholesale and re-
tail trade ip Texas and the South-
west, the Spring marketing sea-
son was formally opened today.
Milady gazed upon the newest
and most Choice fashions last
night at the opening spring style
show held here.
. . She saw slightly longer skirts
as the vogue for spring, with the
ensemble a dominant factor in the
* - season's fashions. The correct
. length for skirts this spring is two
inches below the knee, altho eve-
ning frocks . range from ankle
— length to two inches below the
knee.
Varied Types Seen.
The ensemble was steen in va-
ried types and hues, including the
cape combination. Milady's vernal
sheathing compromised in colors
and designs. The extreme fem-
ininity of the winter season and
the straighter, slimmed^ lines of •
recent seasons, were both'seen and
presented to attract the favor of I
the spring wearer.

ing and brilliant hues for popular

The financial emands on the

Olmstead said, expaining that
