81 But in this typical October weather,
,nf whole attitude changes, and one
feels as brisk and alive as the swift
north winds. Maybe it's because ones
complexion and ones hair always
looks better in cool weather. Ones
lair looks frowzy and curly, and even
3D. il it isn't that kind of hair, one
doesn't mind sitting for Il permanent
+ wave in this weather. Maybe it's be-
i cause one can throw aside the faded
summer frocks. and how new clothes
do change a wOman's whole outlook on
life. Isn't it a peculiar thing that
one littln tan hat with a touch of
gold can lift one out of the depths of
despair into a lovely mood where one
sees nothing but the beautiful. And
velvet is being used so much this

Whether it's the weather or the
clothes. people are feelig gayer. Things
are Frightening un. There ar1 lots Of
parties being given for the many
brides. And other parties being given
for no reason at all, except that folk
are more in the mood for entertain

when n glass Of cold lemonade looked
like large piece Of heaven.
