 No conscious woman could look at the fashions displayed at the recent New York fall openings in New York without thinking about her face and figure. For instance, consider:
 The new straighter silhouette which calls for a slim hipline.
 The pompadour = varied to suit the individual, of course = but al- ways taking the hair up and away from the face.
 Plunging necklines and peep show evening dresses, demanding white, smooth shoulders, a beau- tiful back and complete absence of hollows around collar bones.
 Fur shoes, transparent shoes of vinylite, shoes which glisten in the dark all beautiful, but all drawing attention to feet and ankles.
 SPARE THE HIPS
 AND SPOIL THE GOWN
 Falls fashion picture, as shown in American designers openings is an exciting one. But it puts the busi- ness of improving her looks right up to every woman.
 You won't be flattered by new day and evening clothes, especially those with swathed hiplines and straighter skirts, if your hipline measures more than you know very well it should or if there are bulgeS on your thighs.
 Nobody wants you to strive for boyish flatness in the 1920 man. ner. But, in order to look your best in their creations, designers appar- ently would like your curves to be subtle. The nipped- waist, round- ed-hipline look of last fall is out.
 Not more than six models who wore the glamorous clothes in last weeks openings had their hair combed pstraight down. These half dozen exceptions to the rule were striving for the Irene Bordoni look - the straight-hanging effect with softly turned under ends and long, cut-square-across- forehead bangs.
 All of the others, whether their hair was long, medium long or short, had brushed it up and away from the face at temples and in front of ears. In most cases, the front section over the forehead had 8 pompadour-ish look about it.
 Purple pink, a new color, and the inky blues, recommended for winter day dresses and suits, were smartest on models with pearly white skins. Sophie Gimbel's biscuit shade-a creamy, pale beige tone

 New York-The only things slen- derer than the fashion editors busy pencils were the tightly nodded dresses of the models themselves who passed in gorgeous, slim-hipped parade through three Manhattan salons during the fall and winter openings.
 It was, in fact, the pencil sil- houette" that wrote in big fashion news on the second day of the all- important fall openings here - 8 pencil silhouette that drew straight lines on day dresses, suits, dinner costumes and evening gowns alike, frequently erasing waistines, and marking new triumphs for U. S. designers.
 There was skirt fullness in evil dence here and there, of course, but it was for the most part subtle fitness, intended to be purely func- tional rather than decorative. FOR ADDS NOTE
 OF LUXURY
 Another important fashion note: Fur is being used laviShly and in new and unique ways.
 For instance, dark-haired, attrac- tive Fira Benenson makes day gloves with wide cuffs of fur, both long haired and fiat.
 Hattie Carnegie lets her enthu- siasm for fur go to the fleet as well as the head. With 8 scarlet wool suit she shows wedge-heeled shoes of leopard, belt of the same fur, studded with red stones an da leopard hat and huff.
 Bands of fur are used around the bottom of peplum jackets. Some peplums are made entirely of fur. Hattie Carnegie uses a f1aring one of black fox on the jacket of wool suit in her new color, purple ink.
 The fur stole looks new. And with clothes so slim and straight, it looks appropriate to the mode.
 Black fox tails are attached to either side of a pillbox in purple ink felt and allowed to dangle on the shoulders.
 There are capes galore in fur as well as fabric. In fact, in these new collections, short fur capes far out numbered short fur jackets.

 There are no waistlines in the Hattie Carnegie collection. The line from underneath arms to below hips is almost straight up and down.

BLEACHED STREAK IS NEW CONCEPT

It's new to have bleached streak in your hair from one side of the forehead, through your pompadour roll to back of the head. This is supposed to resemble closely the kind of streaks the light-haired get after the hair has been exposed to bright sunlight all summer long.

Leader Photo by Douglas Wentz.
So infectious is the smile of
Magician Ernie Moore that it
was contracted by Nurse Frieda
Hupp, from whence it spread to
the lens of Leader cameraman
Douglas Wentz, who called on E.
J. in City Hospital this week.
Ernie has been confined to the
hospital since that unlucky 18th
day of November when he was
admitted for treatment of a leg
fracture sustained while in the
act of giving a performance. Up
until just a few days ago he
spent the entire time in bed.
Now, however, he is permitted
up in a wheel chair for several
hours each day. A new routine,
indeed, for Moore, but a welcome
one after spending eight or ten
weeks on the broad of his back.
But the hours have been light
ened and shortened for the we'll
known magician. He has had
many callers and friends who
paid regular visits to his sick
room. Now he is to be honored
by friends in his own profession.
For on Monday, Feb. 5, the Co.
lumbus Magic Club will present
in his behalf a special magic
Fest" at the Elks Club. 1t will
be open to the public for an ad-
mission price of 35 cents.
The show will last two hours
or more and will present six out
standing magicians, known the
country over. Among them will
be Syl Reilly, Columbus, who
will feature his famous French
guillotine act. Jack Thomas,
New York City, will display his
bag of tricks, among which will
be pulling tons of merchandise
out of empty boxes. And there
will be others.
Acting as master of cere-
monies will be DR.. Ritchie, Ma
rion. Every one concerned prom
ises the biggest performance of
magic ever presented in New
ark. Tickets may be obtained by
calling the Elks Club.

CouncilmenSe
Lewis System Of
Sewage Treatm' t

A demonstration, showing the
operation of the Lewis system OF
sewage treatment, was witnessed
by members of City Council and
city officials Sunday at the
Urbaine Laboratories in Colum-
bus. Several tests were run on
the sample taken from a Newark
sewage outlet to show the oper-
alton of the Lewis system. One
of the chemists for the corpor-
alton said: "In plant operation
the sewage normally would re-
ouire an hour to pass through
the plant for complete treatment.
In the laboratory tests, however,
it required 10 minutes to render
the samples clear and sterile"
Efficiency of the system was
also demonstrated in tests run on
factory wastes. The chemist
pointed out that there are no
factory wastes known at the
present time that cannot be
handled successfully by the Lew
is system, and added that in
stallation of this type plant
would be an inducement to other
factories to locate here.
1t was understood that plans,
specifications and estimates of
cost of the system were request
ed by members of council.

Body Identified
By Local Police

William Hunnicutt, aged %,
Negro, found dead from expos
ure late Tuesday afternoon on
the banks of the North Fork by
police, was identified as the man
who attempted to burglarize the
Universal Supply Co., store on
Monday night.
Following an alarm, police ar
rived on the scene and gave
chase and it is believed Hunni-
cutt eluded the officers by hiding
in the river. Coroner Sapp is of
the opinion that exposure in the
water was partially due to his
condition and that in a further
attempt to escape, he fell, struck
his head, became unconscious,
and died later.
Funeral services will be held
Friday with interment in Cedar
Hill cemetery.
