Distinguish Rayon From
Silk by Burning Test

RayOn may be distinguished from
silk or wool by the burning test, says
Marion Weller of the home economics
division of the University of Mime
sofa. Rayon burns as cotton burns,
with a flash and the odor Of burning
paper, leaving a gray ash residue.
Wool and silk burn slowly, the flame
easily going out, the residue a black
hard gIobule, and the Odor like that
of burning hair.
"RayOn is so much cheaper than
silk that il is often taken for granted
it need not be handled with as much
care" says Miss Weller. IF the high
est satisfaction is to he obtained,
rayon fabrics should be Numbered with
the same care given to silk. There
was a time when rayon would go TO
pieces or dissolve in water. but one
of the recent improvements in its
manufacture is in its 'washability.
AS a result, one of the principal uses
for rayon at the present time is in
hosiery and underwear. both of which
require frequent laundering.
"Rayon has found permanent
place in the fabric field and the con-
sumner should learn TO recognize its
characteristics and USES"

REVIVAL OF STIFF SILKS IS NOTED IN
EVENING FASHIONS g s5E 5 sSFfo555$$

Stiff silks are coming into vogue
again. Thus in the realm of fabrics
as in all phases of the mode, old fash
ions are becoming new fashions. We
are even going to use pile velvets
again, not, however. to the exclusion
of the filmy, sheer, transparent vel
vets which have captured the heart
of the feminine world. AS to satin,
which has taken a new lease on life.
it also shows tendency to an in
creasing firmneSs of texture.
This favor for stiff, crisp silks is
reflected in the many taffeta gowns
which the couture of Paris is creating
for dine and dance wear, especially
for the younger set. The pretty dress
in the picture is typical of the quaint
and youthful styling given TO taffeta.
1t is an enhancing French model made
more so in that the designer works
the taffeta in two colors-pink and
blue.
This favor for rich materials is hav-
ing its effect on the styling of the new
gowns or is it that the adoption of for
NAL, classic and majestic Lines" de-
mand the more elegant weaves? Be
that as it may, formal dress is de-
claring an era of sophisticated SIM
plicity in which richness of fabric is
made the theme paramount.
II would almost seem as If the eX-
quisitely simple styling which is so
smartly in vogue for the evening mode
is resolving itself into two distinct
types-the quaint old-fashioned silhou-
cites for the youthful party frock.

the more mature.
The former is bringing in such
charming effects as the of-the-shoui-
