Wardrobe Make0ver Magic

It's the thrift in spendthrift that
makes for smart fashion this year.
You'll be admired for your clever
ness in saving, rather than for your
choice In spending. Planning has
always been the keynote to a we'll
rounded wardrobe. This year It's
patriotic as we'll as practical to plan
because you've been asked to buy no
more than you need-and if you
don't plan you can't tell what you
need.
All right, then, how do you start?
First, look over what you have from
last year. Pull out those things that
for one reason or another you would
normally throw out. What's wrong?
Is there a hole in your coat? Well,
that's easily fixed by one of several
good weaving places around town
which will make it good as new. Per-
hapS you have a Chesterfield that
you're tired of-or one on which the
velvet collar has become worn
That's simple. Buy a smart striped
or checked woolen to match-and
make a; new collar and matching
skirt for your old Chesterfield-and
we guarantee your friends will want
to know where you bought the
smart new ensemble" If the fur
collar on your fur-trimmed coat has
become shabby, take it off and work
out something with braid and vel
vet-very Victorian, very new. You'll
probably have enough fur to make
a small collar for your dressmaker
suit and the fur trimmed suit is a
good fall fashion.
You can work wonderful makeover
magic on your dresses, too. Look
at all you can do with a button
front coat dress to give 1t a this
years look. You can make velvet
Chesterfield collar, and march vel
vet buttons up the front Of the
dress, completely Transforming it, or
crochet bright edging to 60 down
the front and around the collar. Or
buy a print silk scarf, wear 1t like
a riding stock, caught with a tai
lored pin at your throat.
Want to go all-out for glamour on
tailored dress? Try a necklace"
of rows of loop fringe with match
ing cuffs-all very smart and oh! so
f1attering. New ready-cut bright
appliques make attractive coverups
for worn spots on dresses and sweat
ers-or can be used as beauty spots
just for fun.
That suit you're tired of can be
refurbished beautifully if you're a
clever girl Take an old fur collar
that's a bit the worse for wear and
you'll probably find you have enough
to make fur pockets for your suit
with perhaps enough left over for
matching pompon on your hat.
New suit?" they'll ashland you'll
answer proudly-"No, Just bit of

Good Furniture Available

Now that planes and battleships

cording to schedule ID begins to

holders would begin to get some
consideration. A year ago we got
used to the idea that household
furnishings were not important II
1t meant that they would take es-
sential materials from war produc-
ton. Today, . trip through the
shops Is an excellent indication of
how manufacturers have met the
crisis and solved the household
angle as well as the war production
problem.
August has always been the
month for sales Of furniture and
household furnishings. Good house.
wives have stocked up on kitchen
towels and sheets and pillowcases.
They watched the end Of summer
sales for new window curtains, new
bath accessories and exercised their
thriftiness in getting the new chair
for the living room, q pair Of new
beds or doing over big sisters room
during August.
This year. most Of us felt that
there would be neither sales nor
merchandise. 1t Is a nice surprise
to find that Washington merchants
have done their best to get the
merchandise into the stores, and
that manufacturers have collaborat-
ed by fabricating good furniture
which is both attractive and useful
at moderate price.
Though patterns have been SIM
plified and reduced to few we'll
known designs 1t Is safe to predict
that you may furnish your home
and be proud Of 1t with the things
presented here. AS the population
OF Washington continues to in
crease, and new homes and apart
ments are to be furnished every
day. 1t is gratifying to find that the
local merchants can still carry or
effectively this next year.
We have all heard a good dea'
about the new chairs and sofas
without springs. Those of us who
were in the habit of sinking inte
springs and down cushions got quite
jolt to our spines on the first try
But further examination proves thai
many Of these chairs are constructed

with us? All right. Substitute for
the buttons on your suit buttons
of bright loop fringe (that is, if
your suit has no more than three
buttons. Then you might match
the buttons with beret and large
muff bag. If your friends saw that
in smart magazine they'd stop and
look-and they probably will for you,
too.
Your evening wardrobe will also
give you fine pickings for fall. Those
dark crepe dinner dresses that have
been hanging there for months be-
cause you don't want to use the
skirt to sweep bus and trolley car
floors. Shorten them and make
smart short dinner dresses of them.

One Of the smartest gals we know
has just done makeover miracle
on an old dinner suit that might
be called the story of the Dress that
Became Wardrobe. Looking over
her clothes a couple of weeks ago,
she found a dinner suit of plum col
ored wool. The dress had a lame
top; the matching wool cape was
lined with shocking pink velvet
which picked up the high lights Of
the lame. First she pulled the dress
apart, took the lame top of,
shortened the skirt and put it on a
waistband. Next-the cape went on
the cutting board. The velvet lining
was whipped out and the cape Short
ened. Then our clever friend bought
some plum and green plaid wool
to make suit jacket for the skirt
and also (fashion-plate touchD to

There are bed linens and blankets

stricted as to material. For in

and pillow cases to your hearts
content for the Government has no
use for these. II you want single

you will have some difficulty.
Those are being reserved for hos
pital use the world over. You will
find few all-wool blankets of this
years stock. Most Of them are
part wool mixed with cotton, rayon
or other yarn. In this way the
largest amount of wool Is saved for
the armed forces in the cold coun-
tries where there is no central heat
ing.
But taken all In all you will find
what you need. BY no means buy
anything that is unnecessary. Do
what you can to make over and
care for the things you now pos
sess. But If you need q few items
to make your home more attractive
and comfortable we feel sure you
will be pleased with what you find.
1t is gratifying to know that we
have way of working out of diff
flculties in this country. There is
now very close contact between
what the buying public needs and
demands, the store which serves the
public and the manufacturer who
produces the goods. This is the
product Of about 10 years of we'll
co-ordinated public relations work
carried on by persons trained to
understand fashion trends and what
the public wants. 1t has now
proved its value by getting US

Ito Block Order
For Deportation
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Mrs. Raissa Irene Browder, wife
Of Earl Browder, general secretary
Of the Communist party in this
country, again has failed to convince
the Government that she should not
be deported to her native Russia.
The Board of immigration APP
peals, in denying her second plea
for suspension of a deportation or
der, said yesterday that no evi-
dence had been presented to change
its opinion Of 1910. In that year the
Attorney General, Robert H. jack
son, ordered her deported, holding
that she had entered the country
illegally.
The board declared that she had
failed to remove doubts and eva
sions," adding that for this reason
it must again deny her application.
Mrs. Browder, whose husband, a
native American, thrice wast Com
munist party candidate for Presi-
dent, has three children. They were
married in Moscow In 1926. The
original deportation order has not
been carried out because Of din
culties In arranging transportation
to Russia during wartime.
In the deportation proceedings
Mrs. Browder testified that she as
sisted her husband by doing re-
search for his writings and speeches
but that she was not a member OF
any political party in this country
and that she never gave any thought
to subscribing to the tenets of the
Communist party. The board OBJ

Mrs. Browder said she had last
entered the United States in the fall
Of 1888 by train from Canada and
had intended to remain here per-
manently, although she did not then
have . valid immigration visa.
Mr.. Jackson had said that his
opinion was based on the "re-
spondent's own testimony describing
her surreptitious entry in 1888" and
that she had not challenged the
facts.
Mrs. Browder asked leniency on
the ground that she was the wife of
an American and the mother Of
American-born offspring.
