wrecking Of his plane while on =
flight Dec. 20.
Lieutenant Helms body was re-
turned from the high mountain
gorge where he crashed six weeks
ago. The wrecEage was sighted
Monday but an army ground party
was unable to recover the body
until late yesterday.
1t was found about mile from
the plane at the foot of a cliff.
Lieutenant Helms apparently fell
over the cliff while trying to get
out of the mountains. He took the
emergency kit and water bottle
when he walked away from the
plane.
Air corps officials said that If
the condition of the wreckage led
them to believe the crash was due
to some defect in the plane and
not to blind flying, military in
quiry would be called.
Lieutenant Helms was grad
uate of the University of Virginia

Copes Seen at
The Races

Latest word from Paris comes
to us regarding capeS. Racing
is going on at Auteuil, and capeS
appear on the first spring days.
They are of all materials, some
of plaids, some of tweeds, other
Of finer fabrics, and again we
have silver fox capeS. Although
the finest silver foxes are avail
able in America, we must admit
that the French thought up the
idea of using them in capes.
With most of these cape cos
tunes, shallow sailor hats ap-
pear. Some are of felt, some Of
straw. Even with the fairly
simple costumes, Of tweeds or
plaids, these hats are trimmed.
Some have a feather, not the
feather of recent seasons that
sticks up from the side or back
of the hat, but one that juts
out front, or stands right up in
front. Others are trimmed with
flowers or wells, most of the
flower trimmed hats being worn
with dreSSmaker type of cos

Petticoat Fever

Petticoats are back again. J..

ming. You'll find them sold sep
arately in lingerie departments,
smart plaid or checked taffeta
affairs, and better still, you will
find them in some of the dresses.
Most dresses that boast petit
coats are simple daytime affairs,
Of navy or black crepe, and
sometimes they are trimmed
with some color that suggests
the petticoat. Taffeta makes
most of these clever little under
skirts, and they are nearly al
ways ruffled, a wide pleated
ruffle, or a little narrow finely
pleated frill suggesting a trim
ming for the skirt. They can be
plain or figured.
The Washington times., 1936-03-31

One Of the latest evidences OF
the adoption Of all things mas
culine is the fact that some
young girls about town are wear
ing mems braces, or Suspenders
to you, with plain skirts and
tailored blouSes. The idea is
not as wild as it may sound, and
it has its practical purposes, for

Grandfather used to refer af-

He would probably, therefore,
be at a loss for word with which

the present generation. could he

first is a Wafer-thin pocket

and the second a strap watch

The pocket watch, called Penta-
gon, naturally enough, is shaped
so that it may remain bolt up
right when carried. This i'm
proves accuracy. And its thin
ness, impossible 25 years ago,
comes about through an i'm
proved movement. Che watch

that any man will wear it with
formal or informal clothes, and
correctly, too.

Best In CoIors

The Chinese colorS are rather
hard to distinguish in the wide
galaxy of tints and shades we
have this year, for there are
many good tones of each color.
YellowS. green's, blues, reds and
gold are decidedly with us, and
in pure Chinese tones. Lotus
pink is seen a bit, too.
The silhouette that is most
typically Chinese is the boxy
coat, just the line of a short
Chinese jacket, without collar
or with a little standing collar,
and sometimes fastened down
the side, just like the originals.
These are ultra smart, but are
not seen in great number. The
line is good for little spring suits
of the dressmaker type, and you
will see some of them about
town in navy woolenS.
The Washington times., 1936-03-31
Materials Are Mannish

Materials are what you pre-
fer, mannish worsteds, flannelS,
tweedS, and all the gamut of
woolens that both men and
women wear. Colors are gray,
navy, a few browns, a few
blacks, and in tweedS, bright
colorS. You may have a suit in
two fabrics or two colors
that's just as smart, and the
idea Immediately suggests itself
If buying a suit with an extra
skirt. or adding an extra jacket.
Speaking Of extra skirts, some
SHits are smart indeed with a
plaid and a plain skirt, or a
striped skirt. The latter often is
in mans morning suit style, the
coat and one skirt in oxford of
black, and the other skirt striped
like a mans morning trousers.

FrocksDemond
Foundation

Spring shopping almost ! in
variably brings us around to
the conclusions that it is q
new foundation garment we
need the most. We must have
it before we have our new
suits and frocks fitted, some
times before we can get into
our regular sizes.
This years fashions allow us
no leeway in the matter of
girdles and other foundation
garments. We must have them,
if our clothes would look best,
for lines are still slim through
the waist and hips, busts are
firm and natural, high as pos
sible and, although skirts are
fuller. many of the waistlines
are higher.

T TaiIorinq Remains

is only fine tailoring. Add to
that the vogue for Homburg

you have femininity in mascu-
line disguise.
The paradox Of the whole
scheme is that although we may
borrow, beg and steal our mems
clothes, we still look feminine
in them. A frill here or there,
the set Of the hat, the way it is
changed in the adaptation gives
each separate piece Of the cos

whole is assembled, the effect is
not at all masculine.

SinqIe Breasteds

Two Single-breaSted models

Then there's a third, very new,

collar is almost as wide as the

Accessories for these fur-trim-

suit.
