with no attic safe from the prying
eyes Of a fashion minded girl on
the hunt for an old chatelaine or
fob. In fact, those who had the
collection habit in that year turned
from bracelets to chatelaines as
props for their acquisitions.
Looking backward, we feel some
few wits might even refer to the
past year as the Diapered Era, with
nod to Claire McCardell, bright
young designer who went back to
the eternal triangle for inspiration
for the years newest and most
amusing bathing suit. Others will
remember the year fashion-wise for
its revival Of the fur stole which
knocked the usual three-skin affair
right off the fashion map, while the
introduction of white mink by a
New York designer was described
by her publicist as an historic
first" Another big fashion of the
year about to slip by is the fur
lined coat, which finally gained ac-
ceptance.
Paris was liberated in 1914 and
almost Immediately started to
broadcast her haut couture to the
world, this industry being an i'm
portant factor in her civilian econ
omy. The first Paris fashion which
caught on was the high wide tur-
ban, a hat which is becoming to
almost everybody. And in 1914 COL
ored hairnets added brightness to
the picture-a vogue introduced by
Lilly Dache which became all but
ubiquitous. At this stage we some
times wonder what would happen
to all the netted fake chignons seen
around if really big wind blew up.
Nor can we close this little review
without mentioning makeup. Aft
er years of sun-burned skin tones
which made most women look like
refugees from a tropical cline, 1914
saw the launching of pink makeup
to put rosy glow on many face
where bronze had been before.

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: am a woman
of %, have been married nine years,
but have never been really happy.
My husband idolizes me in his own
way, but does nothing toward max
ing me happy. He hates shows,
dances and company, doesn't like
to do anything but read and won't
take me out to any place Of amuse-
ment in the evening. He is at work
all day and when he is not at home
L. never leave the house except to
go to market.
I can't stand this much longer
What shall do? MISERABLE.
Answer-How do you get that way
about your husband never doing
anything to make you happy when
he is good and kind to you and
loves you and gives you a good
home? Don't you think all of those
things are quite as important as
taking you to the movies or to a
dance? Can't you see that you
are ignoring the big. vital things
and stressing the unimportant ones?
