HASH is HASH.

In one of her famous "Rebecca"
stories, Kate Douglas Wiggin had
written this sentence:
Rebecca sat by the window, chop
ping hash.
The proofreader put an interroga-
ton mark after it, and added, in pen
Gil:
''As hash is the finished product, was
she not, instead, chOpping meat or po-
tatoeS?"
When the author rallied from the
effect of the comment, she wrote her
answer under the question:

The earliest arrivals in suits and
coat-dresses are, like the first robins,
appearing in scattered groups and
glimpses, but are harbingers of charm
ing fiocks soon to follow. They are
rather tentative as to line and silhou-
cite, their motto apparently being
"When in doubt choose straight lines"
Therefore there are more straight-line
models than anything else. Designers
may have been waiting for last word
from Paris before launching their ear
Hest creations; if so that last word
was the long WASTED blouse; a Paris
ian fancy that results in an Oblitera-
ton of curves. Along with it came
heightened tunics, straight around the
bottom, and variety of interesting
sleeves having generous and extraO--
binary cuffs, and mostly cut in the
fashion shown in the sleeve of the
suit illustrated above.
The straigl zine suit is a safe choice
because women do not cOnfine them
selves to one or two styles or to one
or two silhouettes any more. The
straight-line dress is always smart.
One can wear it with confidence and
assurance, as is the case with Russian
blouse models. There is not Il chance
that all the new suits will keep to the
straight and narrow ways of these first
arrivals, but however devious their
ways, they will not be more attractive.

There is a chic slenderness which the
straight-line insures to the figure o.
