NEW FABRIC TRENDS
FOR AUTUMN SEASON

Trends in the silks and rayons
which Paris fabric houses have pre-
pared for the fall costume collec-
tons:
New plain silks have a softer,
more velvety touch, duller surface
than before.
Rayons of intricate weaving are
dull, pebbled, Crushed" have fine
matelasse patternings, Ottoman
ribs, plain or fancy, and many nov
city surfaces obtained by uneven
yarns.
Serge or twill weaves appear in
delicate silks or rich metals.
Neon lights have inspired whole
group of lanes made with colored
metal yarn, also new changeable,
mosaic, cashmere and jewel effects
using the same colored metal.
Novelty velvets are made with
pile that is completely dull or has
only a medium luster. Also with
printed gold backs or satin backs.
Metals and lanes are finely pat
termed or quite plain, elaborate in
texture and often have small Pals
ley, Persian, Byzantine, Oriental
and Eighteenth century designs.

conferred in the foreground, has on
fluffy-ruffle type of dress with
bows on the shoulders and ribbon
run through the waistline of the
very full skirt. 1t is just the sort of
be-ribboned dress that makes an
adorable child look more so. Why
not make two of 'em, one for Sum
day-go-to-meetin dress and one for
everyday service?
Party days for small girl mean
ribbons and lace, cambria tea and
ice cream and cake. What could
be nicer to wear at such festive
times than the lacy dress which the
cunning youngster to the right is
wearing? 1t is crocheted of deli
cate mercerized cotton quite to this
miniature queens taste, you may
rest assured. 1t will also prove a
boon to mother for it is dependably
serviceable for all its fragile ap-
pearance, will wash, of course,
and all that has to be done is to pull
the lacy crochet into shape here and
there caressingly with your fingers
doesn't require the least mite of
ironing.
Here's a suggestion or two to
mothers who are making over
dresses for little daughters play
and school wear. Leading Paris
couturiers are combining crochet
and various materials. The idea
would work out admirably in Elk
ing over" children's clothes. A cloth
or sturdy linen dress that needed
lengthening could be made attrac-
tive by adding desired inches Of
plain crochet done either in the iden-
teal shade of the fabric it is to
trim or contrasting it. Make a
matching crochet belt of the mer-
cerized cotton and carry out the idea
further with crochet buttons and
perhaps decorative pockets of the
crochet.

Hands off Chicken,
Modern Code Insists
q Emily POSL.
70 eoooooOoeeo oe

n EAR Mrs. Post: Is it incorrect,
~ according to etiquette, to eat
even the slightest bit of chicken in
the fingers? l don't mean whether
it is correct to take up what can
be cut off the bone easily enough,
but am referring to the very small
bones from which it is impossible
to cut meat loose with knife and
fork. Aren't good table manners to-
day more lenient about these foods.
especially if finger bowls are pro-
vided?
Answer: No, people are less leni-
ent than they used to be. That is,
if we go back to the descriptions
given us by the writer's of long ago.
and as copied for instance in the
moving picture of Henry the Eighth,
who picked up a whole chicken in
his hands and tore it apart, our
table manners have become posi-
lively fnicky. The only thing that
could soil the fingers and il not ia
bued by the meticulous are lobster
claws. And when such lobster is
served, finger bowls of hot soapy
water should be provided at once.
Perhaps, if this practice were fol-
lowed when serving chicken, there
would be no objection to taking the
wings in the fingers.

IF AUTUMN comes will you be
L left behind with faded summer
frocks, Madam? No, no, many
times no-that is, not if you will
but accept this cordial invitation
from Sew-Your-Own. It's the
easy way to become frock-sure of
chic for yourself and your daugh-
tiers, as well. So Madam, why not
sew, sew, sew-your-own!
A Dutch Treat.
It isn't often mother gets break
(it's beauty before age, you know
but this trip she does. Sew-Your-
Own has designed, especially for
her, an all-occasion frock (above
Left that's simply lovely to look
at. If fathers compliments have
become a bit rusty from lack of
use, this frock will bring them
back to their former brightness.
It's pretty in any fabric: Bingham,
silk crepe, rayon prints, percale,
or sheer wool.
Sweet m Simple.
It's a treat, too, for mother when
she finds a dress for Little Sis
that's as carefully planned as the
captivating model above center.
1t gives the growing girl the fluffing
out she needs in the shoulders, and
the prettily f1ared skirt offers her
graceful poise indoors, plus full
freedom for activity out of doors.
It's adorable with the collar and
cuffs in white linen. 1t heightens
the contrast of her luscious healthy
Suntan.
Chic for the G. F.
And a treat for all concerned is
the frock Sew-Your-Own has Gre
ated for The Girl Friend. She may
be collegiate, high schoolish, a
steno, mothers helper, or young
lady of leisure, but whatever she
is she'll look the part and prettier
in take-off on Pattern 1927. 1t is
new, novel, and easy to sew. 1t is
undoubtedly the frock to wear

ONE, two, ee!-here they are,
~ a trio of pretty little crocheted
frocks worn by trio of pretty little
girls as pictured. And do little folk
of feminine gender love the dresses
that doting mothers and big sisters
crochet for them! Well, just show
this picture to wee daughter or sis
ter or niece or little girl neighbor
and we wager that their opinion on
the subject will make elders seek
crochet hooks, yarns and books of
instructions instanter, forthwith and
without delay.
These cunning frocks are sup
posed to be party dresses-that's
the way the designers thereof listed
them on fashions program, but for
our part charming as any one of
them would be to wear to party,
we believe your little girl will be
wanting to wear her crochet dress
every day. Why not? The idea of
general wear will be found perfectly
practical, workable and demonstra-
BILE for it is crocheted of fast dye
mercerized cotton yarn that washes
like new and is so much easier to
launder than a dress that has to be
ironed each time. Serviceable, too
almost no wear-out to it!
Speaking of smart styling in GRO
Chef fashions for little folks, never
have professionals paid so much at
tention to this angle as during re-
cent years. The result speaks for
itself in the three models pictured.
There is the charmingly styled prin-
cess worn by little Miss Six
Old POSSIBLY she may be seven);
anyway the dress shown to the left
reaches new high in swank so far
as children's fashions are con-
cerned. 1t is crocheted of mercer
lied cotton, and we leave it to you
to visualize it in the color your little
girl happens to like best. It has
puff sleeves as stylish as can be
and is buttoned all the way down
the front with crocheted buttons a
la smartest mode. 1t really does
not take long to crochet this dress
and it is delightful pickup work to
inspire you to Improve each shin
ing hour"

he would like to play opposite her.
So, just to complete the cycle, they
telephoned her present husband, Lee
land Hayward, who is her manager,
and asked him if she would be free
to make the picture before going
back to New York for stage en-
gagements and he said he would be
happy to arrange it.
"The Toast of New York" star
ring Frances Farmer is a fascinat-
ing picture. 1t deals with the pic
turesque period when Jim Fisk was

when business men went around

weren't conniving to get control Of
a railroad, or wreck each others
fortunes.
All over the country box-office
records are being broken by "Sara-

her old pictures again, a gay, light
hearted picture like "Bombshelr' or
Reckless" for in Saratoga" she
is but pallid shadow of her former
self.
After arguing for weeks about her
salary demands, RKO have at last
signed Ruby Keller to make two
pictures year for them. She won't
be in the next Fred Astaire pic
ture, however, for Joan Fontaine
has that leading role nailed down.
Joan has been working like a
beaver, taking dancing and singing
lessons preparing for this big
chance. Ruby's first will be "Love
Below Freezing" the picture which
will bring little Mitzi Green back to
the screen.
A few weeks ago Josephine Hutch

address limitations
to Wedding TactfuUy

n EAR Mrs. Post: Our families
~ are both large and / really can
not include all the children at my
wedding, so must end the lists with
aunts and uncles. Would you sug-
gest that it might be a good idea
to enclose a card with the invita-
tions saying emo children? Or how
should / break the news to the par
ents without hurting them?
Answer: To emphasize the fact
that they are not invited would be
needlessly cruel, especially if some
of them have been looking forward
to a wedding in the family. Merely
address invitations to Mr.. and Mrs.
and say nothing about the Marys
ard Johnnies. Should you be asked
whether the children may come,
then explain that unhappily you can
not include so many more.
The Bridesmaids Dress.
IN EAR Mrs. Post: ~ have been
~ told that taffeta is better ma
terial for the dresses at a spring
wedding than one in winter time.
Is this also true of MORE? (2) Also,
if a bride wears simple velvet
dress, must her only attendant wear
velvet or would she be suitably
dressed in crepe or any of the more
practical materials which she thinks
would be better suited to her needs
after the wedding?
Answer: ID Moire is particularly
suitable for autumn and winter. ~
Her dress need not be of velvet. 1t
would be quite all right to have the
bridesmaid wear crepe.

White Gold Ring.
n EAR Mrs. Post: I've always
liked the plain yellow gold we'd
ding band and would like to have
one of this description when am
married. But one never sees yell
low gold wedding bands today, that
is, not on the new brides. Also,
am wondering whether yellow gold
will look well with my other rings,
which happen to be set in platinum.
What would you suggest?
Answer: Although I myself have
a strong prejudice in favor of the
yellow gold wedding ring, think
that the bride of today would better
have a ring of white gold, for the
reason that you yourself give.
Folding the Napkin.
NEAR Mrs. Post: When eating
- a meal in someone's house,
how is the napkin supposed to be
left at the table?
Answer: Fold the napkin together
loosely and lay it at the left of
your place. If you are staying
for the next meal, you would be
more careful to fold it neatly in its
original creases, especially if the
others at table make it obvious by
the way they fold their own that it
is not customary to provide fresh
napkins at each meal.
Guests Go First.
n EAR Mrs. Post: When I ask
- friends home with me to my
apartment, after unlocking the hall
door should / go first or let them
go in first? And does the same an
swer hold for both women and men
friends?
Answer: Unless it is necessary
that you 60 into the apartment in
order to turn on light, you would
open the door and stand aside for
a woman to 60 ahead of you. A
man would of course follow you.
Tea for Many.
n EAR Mrs. Post: Please tell me
- whether You think / can use q
big silver electric coffee percoIator,
which has spig0t, as a water ket-
tie on a large afternoon tea table?
Answer: If there is an electric
outlet under your table so that no
one will trip over the cord, there is
no reason why you shouldn't use it.
