Times Fashionist Discusses
Smart Velvet Wraps
By WILMA LA VILE

parent velvet, yet is more
youthful.
Chanel makes little short
jackets and capped wraps Of
velveteen. 'A'hey may either
wrap far over the side, coming
just to the waist, or they may
come down over the hips. They
may have sleeves, no sleeves,
capes, boleros, ties or any other
delightful conceit of the mode.
There is no law of color or cut,
which means that Chanel has
done her best with them, and
it is, as usual. a charming best.
These little short wraps are
particularly well suited to the
new summer evening frocks,
both in texture and in cut. So
many of the cool frocks are
of a stiffened fabric, or organ
7 die, tulle, net, taffeta, or COM
binations, and their softly jutr
ting silhousette is fittingly car
ried out by a wrap that con-
forms to the same general lines
as do these of velveteen. The
full flaring skirt need not be
covered, and these short wraps
are sufficiently warm for near
ly any summer climate.
The two little wraps we have
sketched from a Washington
shop are typical of the type that
Chanel has designed. One is
of American Beauty velveteen,
with a suggestion of a peplun,
and tying at the waiStline. The
scarf at the neckline may be
used in various ways, may
make revers, may tie or may
be wrapped.
The other wrap is Of q
heavenly deep blue, and wraps
far over. It comes down over
hips, and is fitted at the waist
line by means of tiny tucks.
Tomorrow Miss La Vile will
talk about the new mesh net

Flat Crepe
What are these tub silks? Flat
crepe's important. One of the
most important there is
just as it is in general daytime
dresses. &C My usually in general
daytime dresses it's not wash
able.)
Silk pique's another. Par
ticularly for blouses. Shantung
is a tub silk lots of folks are ex-
cited about. And it's a good
thing to be excited about. Be
cause it's in fashion.
Striped shirtings are one OF
the newest fashions you can
choose. They're fine for all
ages, too.
You'll find most Of these
silks made up into those very
smart sleeveless or short-Sleeved
dresses that are going to dot
the beaches and the country
all summer long.
Simple in line. Designed to
be comfortable when you wear
them for active sports. And
just as comfortable If you
don't!
Three Smart Types
We've had sketched three
dresses typical of the styles
most popular in washable silks.
One cat the right) is the new
high necked shirtwaist dress
that's great for folf who don't
want to burn neck and shoul-
ders.
Another (center) is the very
popular pleated dress with
square neck. (The square neck
is another new summer noteJ
And the third is a type
you're going to see in great
numbers. Simply tailored
with skirt bosom effect
and the bows Chanel likes so
well.

Miss Harriet Anderson, Daugh-

The prospect OF treaolns

has lured Miss Harriet Ander'
son, daughter of Mrs. Chandler
Anderson, to New York
Still in her teens" Miss
Anderson decided to try for the
stage rather than make her bow
to Washington society next win
ter in spite Of the fact that sne
has already been signed up as
q bud of the 1930-31 season

Miss Anderson ever since
earliest school days has been
interested in theatricals, and
she is willing to take any part
which will land her on the
first rung of the ladder to
theatrical fame.
The AndersonJ have gone to
Bar Harbor for many summers,
and there Miss Anderson took
part in several plays presented
by the Surrey players, local
troupe with which she was al
filiated. Furthermore, this am
bilious young lady has never
missed a chance to meet people
who are connected with the
stage in any way. So who
knows but what Washington,
in several years, may boast
another celebrity?

NJ Way Shredder
95c a Set of Three
Summer is the time when
salads made of shredded vege-

wholesome, when the house
wife will appreciate this new

slicers so sharp that they cut
vegetables with a minimum of

Stick an Ash
Tray Anywhere, 1Oc
A rubber suction cup will
stick a roomy ash receiver on
the dashboard of your car, on
the side of the wall, the head
of the bed, or any other smooth
surface. The receiver is a small
but spacious cup with metal
covering the top partly, so
ashes won't spill If you knock
it down accidentally. It's paint
ed in vivid colors, and will
pay for itself in a day in the
labor you save sweeping up
ashes.

Silk Neckties, S5c
It's unusual to find such

plain-color shantungS that are

Honest-to- Goodness
Fried Chicken, 81
The air of authenticity about
this old-fashioned tea room, as
well as the fried chicken dinner
will appeal to the discriminat,
ing person. At the end of a
1O-mile drive, you find a charm
ing house of historic interest,
furnished with genuinely beau
tiful and old furniture. You
can buy it if you will, but you
are not urged to. The dinner,
which includes the usual five
courses, is delicious. and beau
tifully served. There are chops,
steaks or ham if you prefer;
and the most marvellous hot
rolls. If you're looking for a
place to drive out for dinner or
luncheon, you must try this.
