The pinafore fashion is gaining
momentum. Dresses with detach-
able or separate pinafores made of
velveteen or of satin play a dual
role. The plain foundational dress
is transformed into a dressy affair
under the magic of a pinafore of
matching or contrast fabric. It's an
easy way to dress to occasion at d
moments notice.

This is a season where glittermg
sequins give sparkle to both day and
night fashions. Even the newest
jewelry CLEANS with sequins like
the attractive ensemble of necklace
and bracelet worn by the charming
glitter girl pictured. This young
woman is sequin-minded even to her
fingertips, for she uses a lumines-
cent polish that is the newest contri-
button to fingertip glamour. The idea
of matching the color of your finger
tip polish to the color of your ac-
cessories is becoming increasingly
popular. You will add allure to
your costume in black or dark col
ors if your fingertip polish radiates
the deep rich luminous red of Sc
quins.

Frog Fastenings

The fact that frog fastenings are

Masculine Influence

The masculine influence in wom-
ems fashion reflects in the new
derby hats feminized with prettily
frivolous wells, and flannel long
sleeved shirts that are topped with
jackets cut and tailored in man
fashion. Long wool knit socks and
striped ties are campus favorites.

Here is an instance where the

the very act of having appropriated
for her very own the time-honored
Derby hat pictured in the family al

reward offer for the Nazi Fuehrer.
Unidentified Pittsburghers through
President Samuel Harden Church

the cash to any one who'd deliver
Hitler to the League of Nations, un-

The Texas boys telephoned a
Dallas newspaper saying they'd like

deferred by lack of finances" They
suggested that the Carnegie Insti-
tute finance them and forget about
the reward.
Another Texan. a professional
strong man in Houston, wired the

him back. Must have hundred
thousand-dollar drawing account
and transportation to Germany
made possible"
Addressing a letter to sponsor
Church, Dean Carl w. Ackerman of
the Columbia University Graduate
School of Journalism assailed the
plan as an attempt to precipitate
war between the United States and
Germany, adding:
