Party Frocks Swing In 1910
In The Grand Manner--Haze|
New Shades Are
Thrilling To
Fashion Writer
BY HAZEL L. GRIGG CFor ANr

BY HAZEL L. GRIGG FOr AMP
AS romantic as nistletoe and as
gay as New Years Eve itself were
the gala occasion frockS seen
around town last week. Each new
affair seemed to top the one pre-
vious for sparkle. .briliance and
beauty, and glamour reigned SUI
preme in the ight-hearted fashion
world .....
Among the dancing fashions, net
led all other materials for real
popularity. Frothy, billowing skirts
in jewel-tones and much like those
of ballet dancers swished their way
around the floors of Lost of the
gay bathrooms, circling into yards
and yards of dancing miles. -
| In spite of the tremendous build
up for covered-up styles in party
frocks, off-shoulder MODELS were
much in evidence, revealing lovely
| coffee -and-cream shoulders. A par
ticularly eptrancing model of this
type was 5he creation of white net,
with a Harlequin ruching circling
The shoulders, worn by a pretty deb
and smart as could be was repeat
about town. The rUahing. as crisp
ed Il design on the Unanimous
! skirt.
rUpDECc HDRENy TEAMS
Another love of net was the
real fashion parade number of Cy-
press green combined with cerise.
and still another whirling Column
bine was as lovely as a fantasy in
a rain-bow-hued paneled skirt of
coral, turquoise and yellow topped
by pa'e blue bodice, ...
SwirlIng silk chiffon also was
popular and appealing, Draped into
Grecian gowns Of flowing skirts and
graceful bodices, they were
triumph on slim figures. -...
Taffeta, plain, brocaded, en-
broidered and threadtd with gold or
silver tracings sparkle urder Yule-
tide fights in portrait st. lie gowns.
High bosonls and wasp waists were
the rule here. Little puffed or cap
sAeeves covered the shoulders and
modest dcolletageS were demure and
consistent with the dress type. @
Little sequin jackets sparkled like
the star atop the Christmas tree
as thcy cleaned above picturesque
velvet skirts. Evening sweaters also
were popular in similar combina-
tlons.
Wedge-soled slippers proved to be
the favored type Of footgear, and no
wonder, they are so youthful and
so comfortable. T9ev were seen in
gold and silver KID IL satin ano
varied other materials usually the
simple sandal styles. E5 the other
extreme were gkyScraper heels, very
pert flashing beneath flouncing
skirts.
Black velvet led the field in even
ing wraps, bit scarlet, wine and
other shades we' Q also seen. Many
wraps had hood nice to keep the
curls in place and snug against chill
winds. Snoods were worn by many
interesting women. and were very
dramatic as they sparkled with
whinestones or sequins. Flowers
ieweled clips and piquant bows to
match dresses were other hair
adornments

BE A CRANK ABOUT SOAP

Be a crank about soap. Buy the
best even if you have to substitute
round steak for porterhouse and
fuss with the family about turning
off the lights when not in USE A
poor soap can be the cause of
dermatitis, not only of the face
but the hands as well. For dish
washing select high grade cleans
ing agents. Use them when you
wipe up the floors too.
There's almost no difference in
cost between good soap products
and harsh ones that flay one alive.
Spend on soap and save on worry
Then you won't want to sit on your
hands when you're all logged up
at the merry evening party.
In the kitchen cabinet and in the
bath room keep a tin salt shaker
filled with yellow corn meal When
hands need an extra securing
after you've been polishing the
copper or manicuring the gas
range, fluff up soap suds, sprinkle
on some meal. The tiny grains will
grind the dust out of knuckles, viii
act as a quick cleanser to the
cuticle around the nail. Their
starchy contents are soothing &C
the skin, which will be satin soft
and of good color.

USE SOME LOTION

Everyone, even the lady OF
leisure who doesn't do any more
work than the noble house dog,
should use a hand lotion during
the cold season. You can make ore
for almost nothing by soaking sixty
grains of gum tragacanth in four
teen ounces of roseWater for two
days. adding one ounce of alco.
hol, one ounce Of glycerine and
few drops of your faVorite pec-
fume. This cosmetic dries few
minutes after application. Pour it
into four or six ounce jars.
To keep the hands flexible play
butterfly as do the children in the
kindergarten class. Hold the elbows
straight out in front of the shoul-
ders, hands up in the air, flutter
the fingers. Do back and forth
wrist movements. Keep muscles
relaxed. If you want to make this
a general exercise for lightneS5
and grace, run lightly on your
toes when you do it. A good means
of normalizing the legs. Keep the
chest high, head balanced, tumlny
as flat as a founder.
Don't forget that pretty cuffs
and other wrist decorations ac5
favorably upon the appearance OF
the hands,

Don t Expose Hands To
Blows OF Wintry Blasts
By HELEN JAMESON

This is the season of the year
when hands act up. They blush
like the red, rose or they take on a
surface that is not unlike sand
paper. They require as much care
as a brand new baby and if they
don't get it they protest by getting
sore. if not downright mad.
Don't expose them to wintIy
blasts. Put on your gloves even if
you are just going to run next
door to pick up neighborhood gos-
sip. If you do your laundry work
wear large easy white cotton
gloves when you hang out the
washing. The busy housewives
hands are subjected too often to
moisture and they won't stand
cold air. A chapped condition can
come overnight. Once present it
has no intention of moving on in
hurry.

HOUSING

The city commissions authorization of a
survey by the fire inspector, JAMES H. DUR
HAM, with the purpose of condemning slum
buildings to the number of housing units in
the two projects now under way, is the first
step in an undertaking for betterment of
equal importance with the housing projects
themselves.
Construction of modern, sanitary homes for
slum jewellers is but one phase of the hous-
ing authoritys program. Another is replacing
ramshackles with attractive new dwellings
and, under careful zoning restrictions, bust.
ness structures. This is the logical evolution
OF slum clearance. Through private enterprise,
it is right to expect that present slum neigh
borhoods will be supplanted by dwellings for
middle-bracket wage earners, with neighbor-
hood business establishments to supply their
needs.
The fire inspector has a serious job in hand
to decide what neighborhoods shall thus be
dealt with for the greatest good to the great
est number, rivaling in Importance the task
Of the housing authority to map a course
which will be for the enrichment of the city
as a whole.
Wilmingtonians are grateful that the joint
work is in capable hands.
