MUSSOLIN|HA
 ENDED HIS TRIP
Last Farewell Spoken to HitIer-Train on Way
 to Rome

Berlin, Sept. 2o.-(UP)-premier Benito Mussolini's visit to Fuehrer Adolf Hitler ended today with a parade of the pick of the new Ger man army. Twenty-Five regiments of the army, more than an army corps, paraded past the Fascist Duce and the Nazi leader. Then there was Q final luncheon ct Hit- ler's chancellery, the last event on the program. There remained only the drive to the Lehrter station and the official farewell before Mussolili returned to Rome and took up the demand of France. and Great Erie tain that he withdraw his Fascist troops from the Spanish civil war.
 Unknown Soldier
 Six men in Italian Fascist uni- form placed Mussolini's big wreath on the tomb of the unknown sol- dier. Mussolini saluted silently in the denotaph, lit by the eternal flame and went out to review the honor battalion. Hitler ordered Ru- dolph Hess, his deputy leader of the Na2i party, to accompany Mussolini on his special rtain as far as the Austrian frontier. As on the jour- ney from Rome, extraordinary pre- cautions were taken to guard the train all along the way to the Italian frontier. Tn Austria, par- ticularly, thousands of soldiers, gen- darmes and policemen were ready to take posts along the railroad with orders to shoot to kill any who tried to molest the train.
 Left for Rome
 The train left for Rome ct 3:5i D. m. Mussolini looked tired and his voice was hoarse but he said he had cured with hot lemonade an incipient cold contracted during last nights speeches in the rain.
 Hitler said Farewell to Mussolini at the Lehrter station. Many gov- ernment members and party lead- CTS were present. Mussolini and Hitler arrived together in an open car from the presidential palace, through streets damned with cheer- ing crowds.
 Honor companies of soldiers were drawn up before the station and presented arms as the dictators en- tered. A band played farewell tunes outside Mussolini's car.

Birds Skeleton Most Rigid

The skeleton of a bird is the
most rigid of all the animals.
Bones fuse together and overlap.
The familiar wish bone" is simply
the two collar bones grown together
to give greater strength to the at
tachment of wings. The breastbone
is not fiat as in most animals, but
has an enormous ridge down the
middle for the attachment of flight
muscles. These muscles are rela-
lively hundreds of times more pow
erful than similar muscles in man.
In some birds they are so highly
developed that they represent hall

a FTER all when it comes to look
ing your sweetest and prettiest
is there anything in the way of a
lovely party frock more flattering
to endearing feminine charms than
all-white? Really now, is there?
Evidently fashion feels the same
way about it for with all the excit-
ing, the glamorous, the esthetic, the
hectic, the eye-appealing delectable
tones and tints on the color card
this season, comes all-white on the
scene and the contest is on, written
all over the style program and in
big headlines-white versus color!
The chic and the charm and the
Immaculate nicely with which the
all white costume dresses you up
during the daytime hours is exceed

irresistible loveliness Of the dine
ambulance and the formal party
frocks that designers are creating
of frothy white silk sheers this sum-
mer such as mousseline de soies,
silk organdies, finest dainty silk
nets and soft "drapy" filmy chif-
fons that sway and flutter and dance
to the strains Of rapturous music.
Then there are the stiff silks that
are such favorites and which re-
quire such queenly styling to do
them justice. Their vogue in all
white is outstanding with particular
emphasis on cleaning white satin
which this summer is more than
ever holding sway in ballroom and
at formal night functions. A most
fascinating white silk satin gown is
shown centered in the Illustration.

RIBBONS TAKE ON
ADDED IMPORTANCE
BY CHERIE NICHOLAS

Ribbons have not been so impor-
tant for a long time as they now
are. They are used for sashes, for
girdles, shoulder straps that are
part of the design of the dress, for
landings and for entire jackets and
toques.
Many Of the better styled frocks
and tailored suits have their edges
finished with grosgrain ribbon bind
ings. The new idea of these bind
ings is carried out both in mono
tone and in contrasting effects.
Beige finished with black or brown
ribbon bindings is favorite theme,
also black bound with white gros-
grain
Perky velvet ribbon bows trim
print frocks while many dress fronts
are fastened with narrow tied rib
bons. Ribbon trims on hats are
widely advocated and there is con-
siderable use of broad betting rib
bon to artfully band high crowns.

describable charm and the square
inclined neckline and the majestic
sweep of the skirt so expertly styled
so as to slenderize at the same time
that it achieves a full hemline, are
all details that glorify. The sophis-
ticated simplicity of this gown
and the elegance of the all-silk satin
are its big appeal.
An interesting feature about pres
ent party dresses is that their sill
houettes go to such extremes. Some
are sheathlike to the knees with
flaring hemlires and slenderized fit
ted waistlines, while others are that
bouffant it requires yards and yards
Of material to make them. For the
airy-fairy types that are so en-
trancing and SO beloved this sea-
son by the younger set, vaporous
tlmy chiffons and billowy tulles and
nets are the logical answer.
Beautifully draped in classic lines
is the dress pictured to the left. It
required yards and yards of white
silk chiffon for its fashioning. The
girdled straps of narrow ribbon re-
fleet Greek influence
To the right a most exquisite silk
chiffon evening ensemble is shown.
The girlish simplicity of this dainty
gown and cape commends this cos
tune to the young debutante. This
lovely creation naively informs you
that not all the honors are going to
all-white for in this instance the
chiffon is in the new exquisite desert
dawn tint, which is a delicate pink
shade that is too lovely for words.
The gown has a halter neck which
is most becoming to the wearer.
The cape is grace itself. BY the
way, you really should have cape
of chiffon or Of net or of some type
of silk sheer to wear with lingerie
dresses, for the transparent cape is
one of fashions pet vanities this
summer.
