Handy Hints
Stiff Silks for Fall

Because of their adaptability to
the current Victorian fashion trend,
stiff silks are extensively seen in
the pre-fall Paris showings. Patou
uses white MORE to create a stun
ming tailleur with brown silk velvet
collar and brown chiffon blouse. A
brown velvet beret is selected to
go with this suit. For formal eve

with tiny gold pin dot. The skirt
is narrow with a fashionable low

When the Guests of Honor
Give Out

Dear Mrs. Post: If more than
a hundred invitations have gone
out in honor of distinguished man
and wife, and then 1t is discovered
that the guests of honor will not
be able to be present at this party
arranged expressly to have people
meet them, what is to be done
about the invitations Are they
cancelled or does the party go on
just the same? This happened
one time to friend of mine and
she felt that the party should go
on just the same, but later les~ned
that many people criticized her
since they would not have made
the real effort to go to the party
had they known that the guests
Of honor would not be there.
Answer: II the guests of honor
give out long before the day OF
the party, the invitations are can
celled. If they give out at the las,
moment because of accident OIL
illness. the party has to 60 on.

black and White Wedding

Dear Mrs. Post: Could you ap-
prove Of a black and white we'd
ding party? I, the bride, would
wear white and wedding veil. my
matron OF honor black chiffon, car
rying white roses, and my brides
maids white chiffon trimmed with
black and also carrying white
roses. I've never seen this and
would like TO have a color scheme
different from that of all the we'd
dings I have personally been TO.
In fact, ! would like 1t to be I'M
usual II can have this without
sacrificing good taste.
Answer: Please, please do not
bring black into a wedding as a
note of novelty II couldn't be
more out of place-in fact. IT would
be more suggestive Of funeral.
Have an all-white wedding II you
like, but please, not black!
Meaning Of ~ to 6 O'clock"
Dear Mrs. Post: Many invita-
tons for cocktail parties and teas
read from four to six o'clock or
from five to seven. Does that
mean one should arrive at the first
hour and leave at the second, or
does II mean that 1t Is permissible
to come In at any time between
those two hours named? ! used
to think that 1t meant going any
time after the first hour and stay
ing a little while and then leav-
ing, but that the party was over
at seven. However. so often j
have found that others, already
present when I arrived, stayed on
after had left. and on several
occasions the hostess expressed
surprise that I was leaving. Will
you explain about all this.
Answer: This invitation TO n
iofuldl tea nledns tiidl you arrive
any time after four and before six,
and that you stay for as long or
for as short a time as you care
to but not past six o'clock. Cock
tail parties are usually much
smaller and much more informal,
and people are supposed to go at
about the hour named, and stay
for as long as they choose or can.
A very informal tea, worded: will
you come in for a cup of tea at
o'clock" means to come in at
the hour named and stay until
conversation lags, or until other
people leave.

Tacoma, Wash

The girl who has no intention
of spending a great deal of time
and money on reconditioning treat
ments during the first weeks of
fall takes time out now to analyze
her hair and nails.
If they show the results of over
exposure to hot sunshine, she plans
ways to recondition them gradual
ly, right now, instead of breath
lessly and perhaps extensively
later on.
She resolves to wear hats or
scarves on her head. She is at last
convinced that too much baking
is as bad for hair and scalp as for
the complexion. She resolves also
to brush her once-shiny locks every
night, knowing good and well that
brushing will help them to regain
their glowingly shiny look.
In addition. she gets and uses
regularly a tonic designed espe-
cially to correct whatever scalp
and hair ailment she has. There
are tonics for oily hair, others
to correct excessive dryness, and
some which discourage dandruff
and dry cuticle. Each must be
used specifically according to di-
rections. Hit and miss methods
will have little effect, If any.
