To Smart Hats

That dashing young Empress Eu-

her talent for fashion to the grace
full little hats which she wore with
such devastating effect Her lovely
jewels came in for their full share
of attention and have been pre-
served for us to admire and copy in
this modern age.
AS a natural result of the popu-

a high fashion for fall. It consists
Of garnitures comprising necklace,
ring, bracelet. earrings and brooch

rubieS and sapphireS.
Picturesque oval or circular mo-
tifs are used in working out the
designs. Pendant earrings are par
ticularly effective. Necklaces of
gold metal with black enamel ac-
cents, silver and gold metal fill
gree earrings and locketlet-like
pendants are other variations OF
the Empire theme.
Pearls are the most important
note in evening jewelry and rival
the cleaning satins seen in the
new dinner gowns and dance frocks.
Among the other accessories for
fall, gloves are fitted at the wrist,

Variety of Trimmings
A twist of self material is a
trimming widely noted in collec-

neckline or may form the shoulder

on new evening dresses.
Color contrast is an important
theme for evening and offers in
finite opportunity for variation
Some of the Smartest contrasts are
black and pink, black and white
black and rose, and a combination
of the fuchsia shades. The all-black
evening gown continues to gain in
favor and will be chosen by WELL

phasize the simplicity and charm

"Sing Something Simple is the
theme song of the evening frocks
for the autumn season a
simplicity of line which immediate

Many people, wise in the ways o.

this new vogue as the beginning OF

VARIETY SHOWN IN
WOMEN'S. APPAREL

The black frock for afternoon
wear will be sponsored in woolens
as we'll as satins. Beads as a trim
ming detail return to favor this fall
and are used TO decorate black vel
vet afternoon and dinner frocks.
Fur is of great importance as a
trimming, Mole, Galyak, and Per-
sian Lamb being most frequently
chosen.
Dresses for sports. those casual,
chic affairs that will such an i'm
portant role in the wardrobe of the
smart woman, depend almost en-
tirely on detail work for their charm.
Usually fashioned of woolens, so
light in weight that they can be
handled like silks, they are readily
adaptable to novelty style details.

PLANS PROGRAM
FOR HOUSEWIFE

No woman can afford to miss the
Imperial Valley Hardware store
during the fall opening celebration
as special demonstrations of inter
est to women are arranged for Fri
day night and Saturday Afternoon
Correct table appointments and
settings for luncheons and formal
dinners will be given in the WIN
dowS at the store by members of
the regular store staff. Proper
china, linen, silver and glassware
will be on exhibition.
Demonstrations of electric cook
ing and the uSages of the iceleSS
refrigerator and electric table APP
pliances will be a part of the spe
cial features for the fall opening
An orchestra will provide enter
tainment for visitors at the store
throughout the celebration.
Ensembles of Saxon furniture will
be exhibited for the first time and
undoubtedly will be received with
interest on the part of housewives.
The ensemble idea is a most i'm
portant one this season and works
out effectively in homes of any size.
The new Saxon furniture is most
attractive and is especially appro-
pirate TO Imperial Valley.
Chenille rugs are most important
this year. Beautiful American
Orientals are exact copies of the
originals and add a charm and lux
ury to rooms where they are used.
Hooked rugs and throw rugs to
match the larger rugs are empha-
sized this year.
All the newest innovations will be
on display at the I. V. Hardware
during the fall opening celebration
In applying the ensemble idea to
the small home the group idea is
most important in selecting furni-
ture.
Visitors and shoppers throughout
the valley are invited to visit the
store and make it their headquar-
ters all year as we'll as during the
open house planned for the annual
fall festival and Homecoming.

gaining in popularity by leaps and
bounds Satin is a wise choice for
these newest additions to the for
NAL mode, although many jacket
outfits are carried out in metal
cloth and lame. For restaurant
dining and the theatre, these be-
coming little costumes are earning
for themselves an important place
on the roll call of fashion.
With Covered Shoulders
The informal dinner gown or the
formal afternoon frock follows the
autumn rule of covered shoulders,
with tiny cap sleeves or cape-like
effects OF lace. Transparent vel
vet, crepe Elizabeth, and gold lame
are among the fabrics chosen for
these graceful dresses.
Evening wraps are long n d
sweeping and reach within few
inches of the bottom of the dress

ious furs and voluminous sleeves

materials in vogue are among the
best offerings at the Mariposa.
Other colors are available for those
to whom black and brown are not
becoming.
Sports coats in plain and mixed
materials in a variety of colors will
appeal to the shoppers. All the
coats are lined and unusually well
finished.

flat crepes are on display as well as
