Dear Folks: Back again with my
mind full of the things I saw.
made it a point to study what the
east was doing in the way of fall
fashions, and I know that women,
fat or thin. will welcome the news
that the straight line, one-piece
dress most firmly holds It's own.
There is little or no belt line ef,
feet. Most of the dresses are OF
soft wooden materials or the satins
and satin crepes. The fullness
comes over the hips giving the
straight back and front panel eff
feet. Some of the evening gowns
for the slim young people have the
puffy hip effect and the hustle bow
in the back.
The coat dress is highly in favor,
but be sure if you have one that
the under side laps over far enough
not to pull open when you step, and
that your petticoat is in accord with
your dress.
The short back hat still holds a
favorite place. dress hats will be
large of course, but the smaller
veil carrying hats will be best for
general wear The putty coored
felts are very popular these are
trimmed with the feather ornament
or with leather fruit, this is very
soft and is applied to the crown
flat.
Shoes. I am sorry to say, are
quite as ugly as last year, saw
no hint of high shoes being worn
The much cut up pump and slipper
are for anything but strictly walk
ing and sport wear. For this lat
ter, thank goodness, there is q
smart, plain pump or strap slipper
and L think this will be worn by
the woman who cares for the APP
pearance of her foot, for genera
wear, and the strap black anc
brown slipper for dress. Brown
seems the favorite as to color in
dress and shoes. Hope this will be
interesting news for you.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
Mrs. r. P. w:

To serve punch at birthday par
ty you should have your punch bow

of a large table or, better still, OIL
a small table large enough to hole
the bowl and a number OF glasses

water on this table, where tn

When 7 was in New York on m!
vacation I made it my business t
inquire as to "bobbed hair" Tn
answer was: Its day is passed.
So my advice to you is do not do it
My observation is that young girl
are wearing the red slippers and san
dals on most occasions, bur, person
ally, | do not think them suitable
for ordinary street wear. Wear then
with sport, morning or Afternoon
dresses. If you wish to accept Al
invitation simply say "I'll be SO glat
to 60" if not make some polite eX
cuse, say that YOU have othe
things that require your attention
at that time. but be sure not to &C
cept an invitation from some othe
boy for that same occasion,
! G. 4, Pitts, Allen, Miss:
| imagine YOU are speaking OF III
Book Of Common Prayer. Thl
| you can get from any book store. ]
you have no book store near you
you can write to either OF thes
places, Lester Book company, Col
Book Store. or Miller's or Gavan 5
