promises to be unique in lending
distinction to costumes for which
they are planned.
NEWS comes from Paris that hats
~ are to be worn off the face. The
forehead, and perhaps a wee bit of
the front hairline. will once more be
exposed. But we are inclined to think
that mere again American women are
going to do just about as they please
Certainly there are some types of hats
that do not look well cooked down in
front over one eye. Take, for example,
the -brimmed hat-how much
more chic it has if it is lifted off the
face. On the other hand. there is
something unquestionably smart about
the small. brimleSS hat when it is set
at saucy angle, extending down over
the forehead. 1t is a little too early
definitely to predict the strategy of
hats. but We will wager that what is
becoming will be the American woman's
method of wearing them.
For street wear the oxford tie, with
medium heel, continues to be fashion,
first. Women have learned that COM
Portable footwear adds to health and
beauty. Few fashionables attempt the
long day of shopping or stroll in the
park 1r down one of the fashionable
avenues without giving consideration
to walking comfort. For afternoon wear
the opera pump is a leader. Suede is
very much in evidence, but soft kidskin,
calfskin. patent leather and other
Spring feathers are seen.
Evening footwear is becoming more
scanty with each new design. The toe
less sandal is popular and is seen in
gold kidskin as often as it is in two
toned brocade, which, by the way, must

How women have longed for some
smart designer to give them an evening
bag large enough to carry all things
necessary for an evening at the opera
or theater! On the market today is a
pouch bag in velvet, which will hold
lorgnette, powder compact, rouge, lip
stick, etc. Every husband will prob
ably rush out and buy one of these
new bags for his wife, thereby saving
many dark scowl. If there is any
thing a man does not like 1t Is to
fill up the pockets of his evening
clothes with a woman's handbag neces-
sites. And when he is presenting her
with the new bag he had better
present her with one of the latest
evening handkerchiefs-a large chiffon
square, untrimmed except for a dia-
mond of contrasting satin, with her
initial cut in it, appliqued in one
corner.

VERY smart woman finds herself
l. faced with the dilemma of what
to wear at this stage OF the
IL social season. A glance at her
wardrobe convinces her that
definite freshening-up process is neces-
sary if she wants to make an I'M
preston. And who of us feels her
vsrv best if she does not bring forth
smothered exclamations from her fem
mine acuuaintances and f1attering
glances from the adniring males?
Women were made to dress and to
be dressed. With the right selections,
hidden personalities are brought forth
Charm replaces shyness-
disappearsEa feeling of gayety, of i'm
portance-all these things are fulfilled
if woman is properly costumed.
The problem paramount at this time
of the year is: What will be best
suited to the wardrobe? Not many
weeks of the Winter season remain.
Then why not choose something that
will carry over to the early Spring
days?
Newest of all, perhaps. are the eve
ming gowns. The high neckllne, the
covered shoulders are fading from the
fashion picture. Low-cut front ana
back decolletages are in order for the
new season. The first models TO De
displayed are in pastel satin prints IN
wall paper designs. Smart they are
and designed to suit all ages
The outstanding and startling note
about the evening dress, with lts low

in evidence. Neither need you OF snort
necks be discouraged. for designers have
put their best efforts into these ac-
cessories, scheming to arrive at long
effects.
The mess coat of last season is
replaced by a slightly f1ared bolero,
with elbow-length, circular sleeves.
In seuuins or taffeta, or one OF the

to revamp that high-front neck

SELF HELP IDEA
. IN RELIEF TO
BESTUD|ED +.
Arthur Guild to Explain How
Richmond Plan Works, to
Citizen Group Here

The idea of "self help" as part
of the recovery program will be
explained in detail Monday at
the District Building when Ar
thur Guild, of Richmond, Va,
will address a committee of cit
liens chosen by Elwood Street,
director of public welfare, to
study plans for putting people
to work.
Mr.. Guild has been running a
self-help project in Richmond,
where it is said large number
of people have gone to work in
various industrial and agricul-
tural lines, utilizing labor and
material that had been idle.
Since the recent publication Of
the announcement that the Dis
trict of Columbia is undertaking
a self.help project, particularly
with respect to farming, the Com
missioners have received many
offers to sell neighborhood farm
land.
The Board of Public Welfare TO-
day received from H. Grady Gore
an offer to lend 1000 acres OF
Virginia land to the District for a
period Of time to be worked and
improved under his direction.
