PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris (UP)-The first prize in the "Prettiest Hat Contest" re-
 gently held during Elegance
 Week" in Vichy went to the Bel gian beauty Madame Joris de Mai. fezzoni, who was wearing hand' some large black velvet beret,
 designed by the Parisian modiste Leon.
 That may, or may not, tip you
 as to the general trend for this
 winter. But what is a trend? And
 who can tell it five minutes away?
 As soon as we get in what we
 think Is a position to use the word
 with some degree of truth, the
 trend itself is gone and something different is in it's wake.
 French clothes being designed now have less and less the
 "taint' of America upon them
 that is, they are being created more and more for French people which is, after all, what brought them to fame in the first place. 1t
 was in the boom days when money poured into Paris, that the French forgot all about their native genius and went to catering to what the tourists thought they wanted. And, 1 like everything else, when they got it they knew at once 1t wasn't what they wanted.

smoothing and will be all the bet tre for what color is left on the brush.
 The beads and Jumps that dis courage so many, users come from putting too much mascara on the brush. Also, there's trick of brushing upward after the stuff dries that will help. Let the brush dry, too, before you attempt this final rite.
 Blue for Brunettcs..
 Do not use the blue mascara unless you are q really dark bru- nette. Brown is for blondes and black for the brown n-haired.
 Perhaps another reason why some otherwise well-informed wo- men hesitate to use mascara Is that they are afraid it is difficult to take off. That Is nonsense. The preparation comes off quite easl- ly with ordinary soap and water and more easily still if you take little cleansing cream on the tip of the index finger and brush the lashes and brows upward with it. One final item: Use mascara last of all in dressing, even. after powdering.

FOODS ARE EASY TO EAT.

Somehow beauty contest winners suggest corn syrup to me.
 The carbohydrates such as bread, sugar, syrup, cakes, pies buildings, candy, ice cream, sweets in general, crackers, cook e S breakfast cereals, fountain bever- ages, beer, wine-are all pretty nourishing stuff and, oh, so easy to eat or drink whether you are hungry or not. All of these are notoriously lacking in food min- erals and in vitamins. Beauty con- test winners appear to lack quali- | ties that make woman a good wife.
 All the items mentioned are made from foods that in their ori- ginal natural state contained Vit- amins or minerals or both, but in the process of manufacture, re- finement, purification, pasteurlza- tion, st e r iliZation, fumigation bleaching, preservation, concentra- tion or cooking these esential fac tors are partly or entirely remoV- ed or destroyed.
 For efficiency and well being the body demands not only a minimum of calories from protein, fat and carbohydrate daily but also a minimum of minerals and vita mins. The ordinary diet, of civiliz- ed man, consisting largely of re- fined, manufactured or purified foods, fails to supply the minimum of minerals and vitamins required In the instinctive effort to get these essentials most of us eat too much of the food we have. The excess piles, up as fat And still we are hungry, for the demand has not been met.
 The easiest kind of food to eat Is carbohydrate. Candy, ice cream crackers bread, cakes, pie pud- dings, hot fudge sauce these things are so easy to eat even when you are not particularly | hungry or when you have just had a full meal of regular victuals or when some one invites you to have some refreshment.
 Thus the nutritional deficiency s kind of vicious circle. You crave food because you are not properly nourished. The easiest and most available and perhaps the most tempting and palatable | things to eat are these very items, and they happen to be the poorest in mineral and vitamin content. l Our national per capita con- sumption of sugar is enormous, and it is increasing year by year. So 1t obesity and diabetes on the increase. Probably many other ailments which are not so definite ly associated with excessive con- sumption of carbohydrate food are increasing.
 For the immediate treatment of obesity or oversize it is important to- see that the diet shall provide the correct quota of minerals and vitamins. In such diet 1t is possible to use concentrates which will bring the proportions of these essentials well up to or bit a. bove the natural or normal level. Indeed it is fair to say that diet which is not thus scientifically planned is a mence to health, and thousands of persons who have dieted unwisely or under incom- petent direction have found that whether they lost weight or not,

FASHION Orders SCOTCH--In Dry Goods
Gladys Parker

IF YOU'RE thinking of go- Il ing back to school, think of going Scotch, for the new clan plaids are both gay and youthful. The smartest are of thin wool of loose weave, making them comfortable for even the warm days of early September.
 Clarence" at the left of the sketch, is a very practical three-piece suit for school. The skirt of brown wool has a zipper opening at the back and fastens to the tuck-in shirt of white sateen with two large brown buttons. The jacket of brown, orange and beige wool is very boyish with it's pleat back and three patch pockets. An Ascot of brown taffeta finishes the neckline.
 The elegant two-piece dress in the center called ''Hoot- Mon' is of black, red and yellow plaid with a slender izing bias panel down the back of both the blouse and skirt. The minstrel collar of white pique adds an unusual note with it's exaggerated points. A crisp bow tie of black taffeta and bias patch pockets finish the blouse.
 "Mac," at the lower right of the sketch is the perfect solution to the problems of a prom-trotter. It packs like a million dollars, stands wear and tear like a trouper and never wrinkles. It is of bright blue, black and white, loose- ly woven plaid wool with a slashed skirt consisting of four panels of varying length. The black panel is bias. Huge cartwheels of the plaid, lined in taffeta, form the shoul- ders, and mittens to match give the gown a saucy air.
