4 Daily Fashion Talk BY Florence Rose

TNHE returning buyers. who this year
l. were fortunate in getting permission
from the Government to go to Paris
to attend the late summer openings. are
most enthusiastic over the models that
were shown. one and all admit that
the clothes were just the kind that the
American woman loves to wear. In
stead of the freakish garments that
usually make their appearance at the
beginning OF each season. the buyers
are showing n collection of models from
Paris that fulfill to the letter all that
they have said regarding them.
There is. TO me. II great deal more in
these garments than Just the design.
For back OF the design is an UNDER
standing which has come to the cou-
tur'ers of Paris Of the real American
woman. They have seen her in her
true light--not alone because of all the
good that our women have been doing
in France within the last year. but the
lesson they have learned from the clear
| eyed. straight soldier youths who are
swarming all over France will never be
| forgotten. Never before have the French
people known the American as they do
| today. Instead of showing the buyers
| models for foreigners as they have al
|Nvays done before. they displayed de-
| signs such aa they know their own
French women like. To the French.
as we all know. blood is thicker than
water" and the best is none too good
for their own people. This to me ex-
plains the lovable. likable clothes that
the buyers have brought from Paris.
Early in the week ! showed you one
OF the knitted suits and today is Illus
trated dress in the same. This dress
is again the same weave similar to
that used for mems coat sweaters. The
color OF the model Is Joffre blue. The

Do you like to dance? Yes, of course
you do, for it can be made a pleasant
and healthful diversion. But dancing
takes it's place far away in the
background in comparison to the help
we must now give our boys over on
the other side. But when the pleasant
diversion and the substantial help can
be merged into one, then indeed can
it be made rare pleasure. Thus il
will be Saturday evening at the
Woman's Club, when the ever alert
and wide awake young ladies of the
A Club will give not only most en-
joyable dance and card party but a
Red Cross benefit as well. They hope
for large attendance not only of

this dance will be SO cents for one
and rs cents for each couple. The
guests at the card tables are to pay
