Domestic and Foreign Perfumes
Offer Large, Varied Lines

by whiting great many, both
new ones and Stand-bys.
For instance, those whose
rench-originated makers name
is an American household word.
In their exquisite leather-cased
Lalique bottles, these perfumes
are new collectors items. And
the same perfumes are available
in less expensive, new, beauti-
full. ingenious containers. d.. for
instance, in metal perfume-vin-
aigrette with locked top, for
your purse.
EARLY AMERICAN
PERFUMES FEATURED
The American house which
has made people spice-conscious
in recent years is emphasizing,
this fall, its early American
spice fragrance, its old-fashion-
ed garden disti'%ation, and its
sophisticated desert flower. An
other house suggests its three
Well-defined fashion fragrances,
one for tweeds, one to 60 with
furs and other dressy fixings,
one for the exotic moment.
Whatever the basis for your
choice of perfume, you will use
it most effectively if you use it
sensibly. 1t doesn't take a con-
noisseur to see that exotic odor
goes better with black satin
than with Stacks or cotton frock.
For instance, how much do
you use and where do you put
it? | would never rub the liquid
into my furs or my clothes q.
they tend to take up and echo
quite enough Of the scent which
is rubbed into the skin, and, be-
sides, good perfumes are most
effective when mingled with the
oils of your own skin.

PERFUME is still plentiful
still various as the moods
and temperaments of woman.
The few that used to be blend
ed and bottled in France are
getting scarcer. But many of the
tabled French essences were put
together and packaged in Amer
lea for years before the war, and
these houses still offer all their
priced fragrances. Ameri a n
manufacturers, too, are making
their stand-bys and, once in a
while, a new odor.
Now, with great fanfare,
comes a new blended andbottl-
ed-in- America perfume from
one of those French makers bas-
ed here. 1t comes out in 27 diff
ferent new beauty aids all intro
duced at once, instead of in the
houses customary way of first
presenting the perfume and at
terWard the makeup with the
same scent. And the matching
scented makeup includes a ju-
diciously streamlined range OF
colorS.
PERFUME is
MIRROR OF MOODS
Selecting a perfume is. OF
course, just about the most per-
sonal of all choosing for the
sake of your charm. Do it know
ingly. Remember this: perfume
can be used as a magnifying
mirror of your alertness to the
mode of the moment; or 1T can
be chosen to underline the mood
of your romantic moments; or
it can be chosen as your own
one-fragrance for every occasion
when you wear perfume.
You're a one-fragrance wom-
an? Then, be sure that one is
yours. Before renewing your
supply this fall. you might-check

TURIN REDUCED
 BY RAF BOMBS
Italian Industrial City Is Knocked Out; Country
 GraveIy Upset
By SIDNEY J. WILLIAMS United Press Stan Correspondent

London, Dec. 9-(UP)-Ar hour long procession of heavy bombers from the British Isles branch of the Allied blast-Italy offensive rainec four ton bombs on the great indus trial center of Turin during the night.
 The major raid came only five days after American Flying Fort resses from North Africa branch oi the offensive pounded Naples, the great southern Italy port, with 6 tremendous load of bombs and while the Italian government was fren- ziedly trying to prevent vital war workers from fleeing industrial cen- ters.
 It was believed that a knockout blow had been delivered to Turin last night in the sixth raid in less than two months, and that like Genoa, 1t could be marked of the Allied bombers' calling list while att tention was given to such other in- dustrial cities as Milan.
 Last nights blasting, the Aneri- can attack on Naples and Mondays pounding Of Reggion, on the south ern tip of Italy, gave new emphasis 10 the warning of Prime Minister Winston Churchill on Nov. 29 that Italians must decide whether to get out Of the war or undergo scientific. thorough and continuous bombing from both England and Africa.
 Only one bomber failed to return from Turin last night, indicating that German reinforcement of Ital- ian apti-aircraft defenses, promised by Premier Benito Mussolini last week. so far was not effective.
 Perhaps to keep the help from arriving, the RAF on Sunday night bombed German railroad centers at Karlsruhe and Pforzheim. on the main and alternate lines into Italy.
 Turin has been the target of the last four raids against Italy from Britain. The last three all were con- sentrated, with the large Fiat Motor and Airplane Works as the targets. Triple block-buster- bombs loaded with 5000 pounds of explosive were used Nov. @ as Churchill spoke to Italians.
 Since the RAF opened its offen- sive against Italy the night of Oct. g, Turin has been bombed six times.
 Turin,s war plants now have had the same regular and concentrated bombing that put Genoa out of &C., tion after the RAF bombed that port city on Oct. 22. Oct. 9. Nov. 6, Nov. 2, Nov. 13, and Nov. IS.
 The Air Ministry said good re- suits" were believed to have been obtained last night. The weather over northern Italy was clear, and flares helped the bombardiers.
