Companion, in addition to its regu-
lar entertaining and practical feat
ures, contains thirteen illustrated
pages about fall fashions. In fact
the issue is called Fashion Fore

Grace Margaret Gould, the fash
ion editor, presents all the latest in
formation about fashions and at the
same time interprets styles to aver
age women so that they can make
practical use of her suggestions.
Miss Gould adheres to her well
known principle that in matters of
style women can, by taking thought,
be in fashion and yet not spend ex-
travagant sums Of money. II is her
aim to show women exactly how
they can achieve this end. and she
does her task with extraordinary
skill.
In addition to the fashion pages
already referred to, the regular
cooking, handicraft, housekeeping,
young peoples, better babies and en-
tertainment departments are filled
with interesting and useful material.

In perfect health we hardly realize that
