Flounces are the newest fashion.
They ripple up and down and around
all the newest frocks in the most en-
chanting manner as you can see by
the clever models sketched. In all nj
these styles the flounces are circular
and the home sewer is likely to find
it difficult to set them on the dress or
skirt unless she has special instruc-
tons.
Two Of the dresses above have a
circular flounce which also forms the
side drapes. The center one merely
uses it around the bottom of the
skirt. All of these flounces may be
set on in this manner.
For thin cotton materials, silks
and soft satins, fine covered cord
makes a dainty heading. Use soft
cable cord. which comes in various
sizes in black and white. For the
heading of a flounce on a dress a fine
cord is best.
Sometimes both black or white cord
show through the casing of the ma
terial. in which case dye the cord
to the color of the dress before it is
used.
Cut a true bias strip OF dress MT
terial to cover the cord and sew. the
cord into the fold of the bias with n
fine running stitch, as shown in
Figure /. Next sew the cord to the
top seam line of the flounce, the cord
turned down against the right si1e
of the flouncc, Figure ..
Fold back the cord so that the seam
falls to the under side of the flouncc

Discovery of Remains in Cali

Recent Theories
(By the Associated Press.)

Santa Barbara, Cal, Oct. 29.-That
Paleolithic man lived on the south
ern California coast at least $4,000
years ago is affirmed by recent ex-
cavatiOn Of human remains near
Santa Barbara is the belief Of Dr..
Harrington, head Of party OF
Smithsonian Institute Investigators
which made the find.
DR.. Harrington said that the dis
covery proved theories formerly held
incorrect that at least $4,000 years,
maybe $1,000 years, and maybe more,
that the Santa Barbara man was an
inhabitant Of the Pacific Coast of
that time is established, according
to DR.. Harrington by number OF
features Of the skulls found here.
Chief Of these is the thickness of
the skull. the complete absence of
forehead. the bovine characteristics
Of the tenth. and the construction
OF upper and lower jaws which re-
sembles that OF the animals Of the
lower order. The skull of the Santa
Barbara man possesses, a pronounced
supraorbital ridge without depres-
sion between the eyes as does the
Neopaleozic man, the thickness of
the skull is more than one-half inch
