Hats are going to be hats this
Fall-With a flair for spotlight
stealing.
Meeting the special needs of a
world at war, designers have
styled the new millinery for
trim chic and completely femi-
nine allure. They have made the
most of the good news that basic
hat materials are priority-free
(feltS and straws are in class A.
f as far as the effort is con-
cernedD. The intriguing outcome
is millinery that ranges from the
flattering high wide and hand
some silhouette to small for
ward-titling hats full of provo
cation! The generous, headfitting
silhouette is doubly patriotic
it eliminates the need for elias
tic to anchor your hat, and its
asSertive brims and crowns COM
plement the periodically slen-
der lines of your new clothes.
The little hats are "naturals"
for your latest couture, and are
rubber-conserving, too, because
they have broad fabric bands,
snug caps, and wells gathered at
the back to hold hat and hair
together. In fact, there are no
better pick for priority
wardrobes than a wide assort-
mept of these entrance making
chapeaux.
Typically American is the
meltingpot of millinery sources
High "stove pipe" crowns
and brief, straight brims sug-
gest the hats of our own Pill
grim Fathers, and we owe a ma
tional debt to our Latin Good
Neighbors for the smart, high
crowned Gaucho silhouette. ORR
entail are the Coolie brim, used
with bloused crowns for height,
and the forward listing Turkish
fez. From Free France come un-
der-brim coiffes which hug the
hairlines. In fact, there is hard
ly hat without a country of
origin. That perennial favorite,
the beret, can be sharply creased
and worn at rakish angle like
the Official cap. The Russian in
fluence appears in Cossack in

cites.

accessories should include; blue
and white striped shirt, small
patterned red and gray plaid tie,
gray felt hat with black band
and brown oxfords.
Tweed is the campus leader.
One of the leading suits is three
buttoned single-breasted, with
welt pockets and no flaps and a
small check pattern. Trousers
are also cuffless. Accessories
most likely would be: olive-drab
snap-brim felt hat, brown and

The double jackets
now measure 20 inches for the
standard size 81. There is more
taper to the sleeves and the
che. has less fullness than US
ual. The popular two-button,
single breasted jacket has the
same length for the same size.
Pockets have no flap and the
lines are box-cut. All topcoats
a. single-breasted. The average
length is 43 inches for size 81.
Bottom sweep is So inches.
Pockets are off the chest and
cuffs off the sleeves. Many of
these coats have removable cot
ton, or cotton-and-rayon Innings.
The three-button jacket, leader
on the campus, measures nearly
80 inches for size 81, and has
regular pockets.
There is no doubt whatever
that the new short jackets, top
coats and overcoats will have
universal acceptance this fall.
And all of these items are not
only shorter but severely simple.
Regular pockets are used with
no exception.

That the styling of clothes is
now conservative is a boon to
the average young man. Il
means that his clothes, still
available this fall with a good
amount of natural wool fiber in
the fabric, will not be outmoded
for as long as they last. In mems
clothing the classic styles are
always in style, and il is only
the extreme in styling which can
be outmoded in a season.
A brief glimpse Of the picture
for business wear sums up this
way:
Soft fabrics such as flannel,
cheviot, tweed and Saxony are
worn more generally than ever
before. Popular colors are blue,
brown and gray, with tweed
mixtures and pin chalk stripes
predominating in the styling.
Blue Saxonies are seen in offic-
es, with a wo-button, double
breasted jacket, shorter than
ever, and carrying long-roll lap
els. Accessories &c this suit
would be in keeping with the
conservative trend: white shirt,
black shoes and harmonizing
four-in-hand tie with diagonal,
broad stripes.
For less executive or formal
business wear, the brown chew
iotc are popular in town. The
short jacket has regular welt
pockets and no flaps. Trousers
are also narrower and cuffless.
Accessories for this suit may be
more colorful, and yet subdued.

Go TO War

Now since our boys in service
are getting all o. the wool
blankets, the manufactures OF
one of the finer lines of blankets
have made, for the first time in
its 81 years of existence, a part
cotton blanket for the American
housewife.
It is an all wool filling and a
cotton warp. The filling COM
prises 76 per cent of the total
weight of the blanket, and the
warp "a per cent.
This is a ratio of three to one.
Inasmuch as ii is the filling OF
the blanket which gives the
warmth and wear, service and
launderability this type of con-
struction will give years and
years of satisfaction and is SUI
perior to many all wool blankets
of similar weight.
In the manufacture of low
end all wool blankets, the warp
is sometimes as much as so per
cent of the weight of the blank
ct; therefore, the filling yarn is
only so per cent which must
stand all the mapping and fin
ishing; for the more you nap
blanket the more life you take
out of the fabric so that by in
creasing the percentage of fill
ing, you help to offset the loss
sustained in the mapping process.
This blanket Is available in
about Ia beautiful colors and
has six inch satin Acetate rib
bon binding to match.

"PRIORITY" COLORS

Since yellow dyes are scarce
at present, manufacturers are
using rich plum and wine shades
which do not use any yellow,
and which blend we'll with most

Clarifying

It's my humble bunch that q
mighty lot of women are run
ming out and having their tresses
cut short for pretty poor reasons.
Around town I see some who look
SO like picked chickens in their
feather cuts that ! wonder why
they got them.
In fact, I suspect lot of women
are being stampeded by the short
hair vogues. They're afraid II
they don't cut 1t they'll look passe.
Well, take my word for 1t, they
won't.
SAVES TRIPS

who has invented the action bob"
the latest, most versatile and use
full short fashion you could want. I
asked him who is getting this cut,
and he said, "Why, PRACTICAL
everybody-too many" He ex-
planned:
"This cut Is wonderful for women
who need 1t and can wear 1t. OF
course I would not suggest 1t for
woman with long neck, very
thin face, or long face. For those
types still propose a style which
is full below the ears. For them I
still say six inches Of hair at the
nape of the neck"
This experts current fashion
for the thin-faced type Is parted
on the side, has q little mound of
curls at one side of the forehead,
and the back is curled and press
ed close to the head in ringlets.
1t is smoother, looks definitely
shorter and is less complicated
than last springs predominating
fashions. And 1t represents no
drastic change.
But 1t seems to be the perfect
answer 10 the question Of cutting
down visits to the hairdresser for
settings. Any woman can push 1t
into place herself. It Is versatile,
because the waveset can be comb
ed forward instead Of up in front.

THE BIG MUSCLE BOYS
MUSCLE IN

Popular magazine recently pub
lished an article presenting a IA
vorable picture Of the racket Of one
of the big muscle boys-mail-order
vendors of superb manhood" to
the moron population. High note in
| the blurb is the observation that
the war booms business. And in that
connection the article explains that
nearly SO per cent of the men exam
ined for the draft had been re-
jected "for physical reasons"
Immediately following that equi-
vocal statement the Greek god"
himself becomes articulate. He says
physical training should be made
compulsory" Implying, you see, that
neglect Of exercise or daily calls
themes by a majority of youths and
men accounts for the rejection Of
so many men as unfit for military
service.
This is an insult to the intelli-
gence of the American laity.
No one believes in exercise more
fully than I dot Is one of the few
medicines take myself, regular
''Setting-up" routine first thing
every morning. But 1t is absurd to
say any amount of daily exercise
can prevent the diseases or def
ciencies which account for the I'M
fitness Of so many young men for
military service.
Among the physical reasons
for which so many men are reject
ed in selective service examinations
are too many missing teeth, defects
Of vision, tuberculosis, heart disease,
syphilis, gonorrhea - obviously
neither exercise nor physical train
ing can eliminate such conditions.
There Is an unfortunate DISPOSE
ton no the part of the wiseacre
laity to assume that fresh air, pure
food and daily exercise" will suffice
to preserve or restore good health
in most instances. This glib fancy
has brought sad consequences in too
many cases of incipient or early
tuberculosis.
I agree, and have long advocated,
that physical training, or rather
physical. education, should be COM
pulsory throughout elementary and
high school life. Following the
World War, Part I, there was a
hah-hearted effort to introduce this
principle into the plan of education
in this country. But the educators
never did take kindly to the idea
on the contrary they looked down
their noses at physical education
whenever they had the chance, and
thanks to the ignorance of parents
the educators had many chances to
belitlte the Importance of this de-
partment.
Three or four months of 6isci-
pline IN an army camp will overcome
or correct physical deficiencies due
to twenty years neglect of exercise.
Altogether 1t would seem high
time for our educators to stop fool
ing with physical education and
patronizing 1t and make some sort
OF honest provision for 1t in the
common school curriculum. Heaven
knows we need it, not only to build
better citizens but to protect the
youth of the country from the char
latanS who sell them forty dollar
courses" of more or less beneficial
exercises which are worth a dime.
