Is employed for trimmings, while
marten. fitch and dyed furs such as
Japanese mink are used. The length
of the fur wrap is varied. There Is
the short coat which allows a gener-
GUS length of skirt to show, as well
as the more formal wrap which
covers the entire frock.
There are little hip-length jackets
for sports and evening wear as well.
and there are jaquets Of finger-tlp

1t would seem that muffs will have
their day in the coming season. They
made an appearance last season but
were not taken up to any marked ex-

1t is said that they will be smart.
They will be accompanied by neck

Many winter coats will also be ac-

Fur Wraps Shown
for Winter Wear
Advance Models in Win
some Designs Displayed;
Muffs to Be Used.

An advanced winter mode Is the
wrap OF fur. 1t will be only short
time before we shall, alas, actually
be wearing these stunning wraps and
jackets, observes a fashion writer in
the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
How the fur wrap has changed
Not so very long ago 1t was a slightly
ungainly garment designed to keep its
wearer warm while not imparting
the least bit of style. Today 1t has
all the flexibility of the wrap Of
cloth. with the added note of luxuri-
BUSINESS, a note which the latter gar
ment. unless 1t is deliberately trimmed
with fur, cannot attain.
The use of. fiat furs such as caracul,
krlmmed and lamb have greatly aided
the fur designer in his quest for line
and style. These fat furs are as
easily manipulated as cloth. lending
themselves delightfully."- to the present
day silhouette of fitted lines and
flares.
A chic model of lapIn In a blue
gray was fashioned with a bloused
back and q skirt which flared slight
ly, the narrow belt Of kid combining 1t
to the natural waistllne.
Brown is of course favored color
for the winter wrap of fur, and there
Is enough variety In its lovely tones
to keep it from becoming monotonOus.
There are chocolate, cafe noir and
mauve browns as well as those which
are almost black and those which
verge on beige and tan.
Black, too, Is of great importance
In both the fall wrap and the fall
frock. AS to the furs employed,
there are caraculs and Persian lambs
In black, gray and brown, with beaver
and nutria for the sports or street
wrap. Mole is dyed in black and
cOlored effects, while Alaskan seal in
a deep brown is also sponsored.

All these felicitous developments had

his life. We had met him on the
Mineralava dancing tour, of which he
happened to be manager. with us, and
it was then that Rudy asked him to
take care of his later affairs.
Writes Mr.. Ullman:
Il had observed that both Rudy and
Natacha were interested in something
supernatural. Just what 1t was did
not know. Later l discovered it was
automatic writing and other forms of
psychic communications. Before max
ing any important moves they always
consulted this power.
Not knowing this, I was at first sur
priSed at the quietude with which they
would receive what appeared to me to
be startling developments. When sur
priSing things occurred expected them
to share my amazement, but this they
seldom did.

Instead they would tell me in all
calmness that they had expected this
and knew 1t would come For ex-
ample, they both told me they had
known in advance that they were 60

that Rudy would change his lawyer
and take on a new business manager.
| when Valentino felt he knew me
well enough to explain these things
he naturally wished me to share his
interest in them. When explained
was open to conviction and listened,
discovered to my surprise that a num-
Der of things predicted by this psychic
force actually came to pass.
1T was in San Antonio that Valen-
tino, after some show of nervousness
and many false starts, first preached
to me the subject of taking over his
affairs and becoming his business man.

The $4,000 which J. D. Williams
