a S A proper approach to the per-

that soon will be staged in countless
households, we know of no gesture
that will so inspire to hurry and
get going as to take a day off and
go fabric sightseeing We make the
prediction that at just mere
glimpse of the new textiles with
their refreshing departure from
the old, in the way of texture, pat

an urge stirring to cut and to haste

comes absolutely imperative that
the woman who would sew success
fully must know materials. This is
especially true in regard to wash
fabrics that are a revelation as to
what science is achieving in the way
of -shrinkage, color-fast-boil-
proof tones and tints and in the way
of weaves of entirely new origin.
Consider for example the new spun
rayon fabrics that are as lovely and
exquisite in texture as imagination
can conceive.
When you ask to see these faS.
cinating new spun rayons take note
of their marvellous colorings that
are so refreshingly different from
the usual run. Many of the beauti-
full hues and motifs for design are
traced to fine Chinese porcelains
that excel in subtle soft blues and
canary yellows, lime greens, peach
bloom pinks and cherry blossom
reds. You'll love these new wash
fabrics that are so handsome they
really do not look like washables,
but they are and what's more
they are treated to an anti
