Wraps Recall
CrinOline
Period
By Wilma La Vile

You've probably heard lot
about the romantic fashions OF
this year, and indeed, they are
delightful. barking back to the
ages when women dressed for
art rather than practicality.
Our adaptations of these
fashions. however, are decidedly
Wearable and though they
carry the spirit of other ages
they are modern in line and
feeling.
From our grandmother's day
We have borrowed the paletot,
but like all other approprla
lions we have changed it to
suit our own needs. Grand
mother made it of velvet or a
fine woolen fabric and pulled it
about her shoulders when she
went out in the day time. We
make it of velveteen in colorS
so vivid they would probably
hurt grandmother's eyes and
smart young things are not
content with wearing it in the
day time, but carry it into the
evening mode.
In the day time these new
paletots are for spectator
sports mainly. They are worn
over a sleeveless tennis froCk.
over shirtwaist dresses or any
other informal froCk that is
casual or summary. AS they
are in vivid Colors they are
usually contrasted with the
color of the frock. AS you see
by our sketch the Basque beret
is the smartest covering for the
head when you wear a paletot.
Chanel introduced velveteen
for evening wear, and 1T is
surprisingly we'll adapted to
the new silhouette. 1t folds
softly about the figure vet has
body enough to offset the eX-
tremely filmy fabrics that are
used for froCkS. 1t is therefore
logical that velveteen paletots
should be worn in the evening
also. They are made ir many
ways. with or without capes, but
we think the one we are sketch
ing is the smartest we have
seen with its becoming short.

tones of blue, green or pink

Mentioned
For Post
Friends of ChiIdren'S Bureau
Chief Urge Her Appointment
as Secretary of Labor

Win a OaDlneI NdOdHOJ
looming in the immediate
future President Hoover has
again been called upon by
the feminists to name one OF
their sex to the post.
Admirers of Miss Grace
Abbott, director of the Chill
dren's Bureau of the Depart
ment of Labor, are urging
the President to name Miss
Abbott Secretary of Labor to
succeed Secretary James J.
Davis, whose nomination as
the Republican senatorial
candidate from Pennsylvania
eliminates him from the Cab
met.
Strongly Supported
The feminists declare the ap-
pointment of Miss Abbott would
soothe the feelings of a large
and influential group in their
ranks who resented the Presi-
dents failure to bestow a port
folio in his original Cabinet
upon a woman. And, they add,
Miss Abbott is particularly
suited to the post. It is believed
her appointment would be ex-
tremely pleasing to William
Green and other responsible Of
ficials in the American Fedora
ton of Labor.
His attention has been called
to the fact that the same post
in the British cabinet, that of
Secretary of Labor, is held by
a woman, Miss Margaret Bond
field. Miss Bondfield is we'll
known in Washington. where
she has represented her gov
ernment at several international
labor conferences.
Secretary Davis, it is said,
would be delighted with the ap-
pointment of Miss Abbott.
So far President Hoover has
given but one responsible Gov
ernment position to a woman.
Miss Annabelle Matthews, for
IS years an income tax expert
in the Treasury Department,
was named by the President in
December as a member of the
Board of Tax Appeals. Miss
Matthews job pays $4,000 an.
nually and is considered one of
the minor plllms in official life.
Mrs. Hert Hurt
It will be remembered that
at the time of President
Hoover's Inauguration Mrs. Al
vim T. Hert, vice chairman of
the Republican National Com
mittee, and one of his most fer
vent supporters, was prominently
mentioned as a possible Secre-
tary of the Interior. The job,
however, was not offered her
and many of her friends believe
Mrs. Hert was bitterly wounded
at the Presidents neglect to
do so.
