Miss Christine Halvorsen Comments on Modes
 for Fall Season

Af-er a buying trip to centers of trade, for womens and chill dren's wear, Miss Christine Hal vorsel, proprietor of Halvorsens Inc, has returned to Juneau. She was as far East as New York, and visited various of the other large cities in the East and on the Pacific Coast.
 There is plenty" said Miss Hal vorsen, ito think and talk about in the new dress styles-broad shoulders, soft draperies, raised belts, hip and waist concealed in straight lines. These are some of the conspicuous features that you note when you begin your Fall shopping. They are exaggerated enough to be smart, but not enough to be disturbing. There are soft draperies at the waist, made wioE the assistance of snirr1ng and tucks, that suggest high lines with out actually insisting on them.
 "A dress that to all appearances seems to have no inclination to be other than a model of correct evening form can by changing its blouse be transformed into an ideal afternoon frock-a style which has grown out of the Cocktail frock- to say nothing of the need of economy.
 Cover Multitude of Hours
 These ankle length frocks cover multitude of hours, ranging from afterron bridge to midnight. Lux urious colors of Ruhm brown, Bor- deaux red, wine, French blue, black and dark green are all fea- trired in the smart suede crepes, cantoIls, satins, velvets and an entic:ng assortment of lovely light woolens.
 "Slenderness is the keynote of coat styles-a slender effect will be attained by higher waistlines, less pronounced flares, and con- centration of interest at very full collars Sleeves bordering on the leg mutton, tight at wrist and full ar elbow, will add to the il- fusion of a slender build. There are three definite silhouettes this season.. There is the sleeky fitted model, fairly long, widening slightly toward the hemline for formal day. time wear.
 Swagger Model, Too
 Then there is the swagger model eithe.' ree-quarter or full length. The third type coat is a belted model. In all three types of coats there is usually button or two to relieve you from having to clutch them closed.
 Collars vary greatly in both size and shape. They may be small and tailored of the revere or Johnny type, or they may be a scarf or half-searf, half revere. But more often the shawl collar appears. It's more reasonable in both height and breadth this year.
 Midnight color schemes will be black leading, with brown 8 close second. French blue will be the only color to come any, where near black or brown as a fashion favorite.
 Accessories Are Varied
 Accessories are both smart and varied.
 Millinery is offered to suit ev- cry taste. Wide brimined suede and felt combinations, severe sail ors, jaunty turbans, and a score of snappy novelty styles with un- ique bow treatment will be seen. Tiny hats with a tendecy toward front decoration will be most pleas ing with the upstanding collars of the rev furs.
 Wear your hat exactly as you please! That's the good news fash ion is broadcasting this Fall = straight, tilted, slanting back or forward. There is no way a Fall hat must be worn. The way 1t is the. most becoming to you is the smart way. And that's real news If you have grown weary of thousands of hats worn exactly alike.
