What's in Fashion?
A Changed Silhouette
Directed By AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, Aug, i3-You're
l. going to look taller this fall
if you want to. Which is certain
ly good news for lots of short and
stout women. Not bad news, either,
for the already tall-because there
are many tricks of dress to mini
mize height if you don't want to
look taller.
But most women like to look a
little taller and simmer, so we're
sure most of you are going to like
the new fall silhouette which makes
you look this way.
The sketch shows the way we'll
dressed women are going to look
this fall.
The way new fall dresses and
coats are made causes certain parts
Of the figures to look longer, certain
parts to look simmer and certain
parts to look wider. Which, when
put together, gives an effect of add
ed height and slinness.
Neckline Is Higher
The new fall costume-to start at
the top-has a higher neckline.
Now all dresses won't have as high
a ncekline as the one illustrated.
But the fashion-righ ones will
have necklines higher than the
neckline of last fall.
One reason why the neckline has
become higher is that the waitline
has done the same thing. AS YOU
can see in the sketch, the waistline
has come up about one inch. And
slightly higher neckline makes a
better proportion with this higher
waistline.
Shoulders are going to look wider
and more Sloping this fall. That's
because of the way fashionable
sleeves are made. Many sleeves are
raglan or cut in one with the bodice
and many Set-in sleeves have deem
er armholes. And this all sIants
and Wldens the shoulder line.
Bodice Close Fitting
When the waistline stepped I'D.
1t rested at a narrower spot in the
body. This makes the waistline
look smaller. And this is accentu-
ated by the closer fitting bodice
that fashionable fall dresses have.
Last fall, you remember, the
bodice bloused down over the waist
line or had a bolero jacket swing
ing ont just at the waistline. And
these details made the waistline
look wider.
Hips look narrower, smoother
and more rounded this fall. Last
year the fashionable dress USUALLY
had a peplum that widened the
body at this point. This year the
dress is smooth fitting through the
hips.
Skirts Less F1ared
Much of the flare has disappeared
from skirts. When there is a flare
IL S way down low. This Straighter
line makes the body Congratulated
and taller.
The wider shoulders make the
waistline and hips look narrower
by comparison, too. The higher
waistline makes the top of the body
look shorter-another aid in max
ing a Congratulated figure.
You'll find these differences of
silhouette not only in dresses but in
coats, too. Waistlines are higher,
bodice sections more fitted, Shout
derS are wider and fur is put on In
ways to enhance this effect.
There's another way you're 60
ing to look different, too. In the
way you wear your hat. Last fall
it was smart to wear it pushed back

NiQhtQO1Uns Like Dresses

Have you noticed how much the
newest nightgowns look like dresses?
They're often fitted at the waist,
sometimes by bias scanning, some
times by sfirring. Occasionally a
little shoulder cape is seen, or rever
effects, which make the similarity
to a dress even greater.

SEVEN FACES
 SEEN FOR LAST
 TIMES TONIGHT
Janet G~yror and Charles Farrell Will Co-elar cln-
 day at Coliseum

Seven Faces" featuring Paul Muni, will be shown for the last times tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. This all-talking produc- tion is notable for an interesting plot, interspersed with flashes of humor. and the multiplicity of characters delinated by Muni. His seven roles are all well-played.
 Inasmuch as the theatre has been leased for vocal concert by the Normanna Chorus of Ketchikan tomorrow night, the next screen presentation will be Sunday night. High Society Blues" a William Fox movietone musical romance, starring Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell will be shown then. The supporting cast is distinguished. It includes Louise Fazenda, Joyce Compton, Hedda Hopper, William Collier, Sr., Brandon Hurst, Gregory Gave and Lucient Litltefield.
 Love has to leap the chasm of wealth-that's the theme of the cinema story. It is enhanced by a number of catchy songs.

 HERE TONIGHT
Father B. R. Hubbard to Talk and Illustrate
 Volcanic Wonders

Marvellous work wrought by na~ ture ,- in Alaska will be described by word and portrayed in motion pictures by the Rev B. R. Hub bard, s. y, this evening in the Catholic Parish Hall. The Glacier Priest warns to his subject when he talks of his Alaska explorations.

 Tonight's illustrated lecture is entitled ''The. Volcanic Wonders of Alaska Peinsula." It is greatly improved discourse as compared with the address he delivered here last fall and is identical with the talk that he made in Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Washing ton, D. O., and numerous other large cities in the Middle West and East in the last several months.
 This will be the only lecture that Father Hubbard will give here on his present visit. His address will begin at 8 o'clock. He is scheduled to depart Sunday on the steam ship Admiral Farragut for the Westward. a

Owing to the popularity of the first aid classes conducted here this week by Foreman Miner George H. Miller of the United States Bu- reau of Mines, the course will be continued through all of next week, it was announced today by B. D.. Stewart, Mining Supervisor for Alaska.

CAPITAL DRAWS LARGE CROWDS
 TO ITS OPENING
Theatre Surpasses Expecta- tions and Fine Enter
 tainment Offered

Juneau'S new theatre, the Capi- tai, was opened last night under most favorable auspices. Lines of persons formed on the sidewalk in front of the playhouse to buy tick cts for both first and second shows, with the result that every seat down stairs and in the gallery was occupied at each performance.
 The arrangement and appoint ments of the interior more than fulfill the promises of L. H. Kub- ley, the proprietor and meet all expectations Heavy carpets cover the floors of foyer and aisles; large tapestries decorate the centers of sidewalks. The rich artistic hues on walls and ceiling, the fine lighting effects, the comfortable chairs, the sumptuous loges and the beautiful drop curtain on the stage elicited general, praiseworthy comment.
 Soun1 Details Perfect 9
 Sound details were perfect-the reproduced notes of a canary were so distinct that an effort was needed to dispel the illusion of reality. Colored lights projected on the moving pictures greatly en- hanced their merit.
 But the plays the thing. The cinema entertainment is excellent, Let Us Be Gay" with cast that includes such notable players as Norma Shearer, Marie Dressler, Rod La Roque and Raymond Hackett is a notable headline feature. Quite different in theme but scarcely less interesting is the comedy at traction "Brats," starring the popu- lar comedians Stan Laurel and Oli- yer Hardy.
 Undergoes Melamorphosis
 In Let Us Be Gay" Miss Shear CT opens the story by appearing as a dowdy housewife, who is careless of dress and toilette, believing in the security of the marital VOWS. When she discovers her husbands attentions to another woman she undergoes a metamorphosis n d emerges gloriously beautiful and, of course, triumphant
 Rod La Rocque is Miss Shear CTS leading man in this delight full talkie, scoring sympathetic appeal in a very difficult role. Marie Dressler, as the eccentric old dowager whose intrigue almost wrecks their marital bark. domi- mates the center of her social whirl with much aplomb and hilarious gruffness.
 Calendar Is Turned Back
 The theme song of "Brats,' 7 should be When You And Were Young" because in this Hal Roach production for Metro Goldwyn Mayer, Laurel and Hardy turn the calendar back a few years. Not being satisfied with being fathers, they play the parts of their own sons.
