Street length is the length for
dinner and evening wear" is the
opinion of Charles Armour, New
York, famous couturier, whose orig
inal costumes were modelled at two
shows today at Kinks.
The draped effect for both aft
ernoon and evening wear and the
rich fabrics accented with metal
and colored stones were evident in
many of the outfits which have dis
tinguished Armour as one of the
outstanding American designers of
Women'S fashions.
A brocaded silver metal street.
length dress for late afternoon and
dinner, with its panel of dubonnet
red velvet and twisted collar and
girdle, gave evidence of the RenaiS-
Sance influence.
Hint of Grecian Line
A trim bit of lace collared the
chiffon velvet dinner dress which
had high neckline, slit at the back;
It's sleeve ended just above the ell
bow. Brilliantly red velvet girdled
the black metal. cocktail blouse
worn over q black satin skirt, its
lines StreSsing the back fullneSS.
The only trim on a dull red crepe
evening dress with its shirred Shout

in back was the armor-like girdle
of heavily studded gold.

collar at the neck ended in Topped
ties of white. Side shirring at the
neck and waist of a green crepe

studded with gold and silver.
Gold circle embroidery marched
over brown crepe jacket dress, its
tucked lame blouse in gold was
fashioned Shirtwaist style.
Blouses of Chiffon Vc..--
An unusual and effective outfit
was fashioned of satin-back crepe,
using the crepe for the dress and
the satin side for a front panel.
Tiny gold clips buttoned the sllirred
bodice and the waist was gathered to
form slight fullnesS.
Armour fashioned fur touches on
afternoon suits, a black costume

Ninety Proposed for Highways of Connecticut Gov ernor Cross Writes Letter of Approval l-Dr. GOd-
 frey Plans Stations for Plymouth, WOodbury

make recommendation for the es- tablishment of the stations at stra- tegic points.
 One station has already been set up at the intersections of the Sey- mour and Danbury highways in Southbury, The three now under consideration will be in Plymouth Woodbury and Thomaston. Dr. Godfrey said the work has been somewhat impeded by the annual Red Cross roll call, now under way in the local district, and that the highway project would go forward rapidly after the completion of the campaign.
 Governor Approves.
 At Washington, D. c. Admiral Gary T. Grayson, chairman of the National Red Cross, has received the endorsement of Governor Wilbur l. Cross for the safety program. Ar announcement received today from the news service of the national or ganization quotes the governor as being heartily in favor of the plar to give immediate aid to accident victims" He wrote:
 T have learned with interest of the suggestion being made by the various Chapters of the Am erican Red Cross regarding the establishment of first aid sta
 tions along some of the high ways of the country.
 Tt is impossible to do much in the way of preventing auto- mobile accidents, because, in the analysis, most of them are caused by some individuals negligence. We must, therefore, do what is possible to extend prompt aid to injured persons who are unfortunatel involved in these accidents. Modern hos- pital facilities exist near the centers of poppulation, but there are many stretches of . highway which are remote from hospitals and even from physi- clans. It would seem to me that 1t is ah excellent idea for the Red Cross to give serious thought to the feasibility of es- tablishing first aid stations in certain places along our high
 way"
 % On Test. Although the program in Connec ticut is not. yet two, months old chapters in this state have mad, plans to open 90 highway stations.

 that starting December 9th meetings will be held on We'd nesday evening of each week instead of on Tuesday evening, as has been the practice to date. Heretofore the weekly meetings have necessarily been lengthy but as the policies of the club are taking form quickly, 1t is expected that meetings of shorter duration will dispose of the clubs business in the fu- ture.
 At the same time 1t was an- nounced that the board of di- rectors will continue holding meetings Monday nights. It is also planned to enlarge the entertainment committee of which MT. Mathieu is chair man. MT. Noel stated last night that the progress the club has made since It's reorganization is remarkable.
