 ADVENTURE YARNS
 The business of being women in war time has held some pretty big adventures for many women and when those experiences are polished up embroidered and improved on as a good story teller always does they will be tales to make their grandchildren's eyes bulge out.
 It looks as though the women will be able to give the men a run for their money when stories of "the last war" became fireside conversation.

 Materials going into new French fashions are neither fine wool nor pure silk. Silk stocks are almost en- tirely set aside for the manufacture O. parachutes. Most woolens now be- ing produced contain only small per cent of wool, with considerable angora fur making up for the lack of sheep's wool.
 Fabric manufacturers declare that while they have achieved miracles with replacement" materials, in- cluding a great many synthetics, these can never compare with pre- war fabrics. The replacements haven't the body nor do they wear as well as prewar fabrics. They are the first to admit that the shortage of raw materials is incompatible with the manufacture of the heavier Weaves and novelty textures for which they were noted in prewar days.

 Paris, Jan. 15-Paris would pre- | fer that American buyers see their first French fashion collections ill Paris. The couturiers are reluctant l to have their creations seen out of their usual atmosphere. This, and other style convictions, I discovered after surveying the French fashion industry from the leading designers of the Haute Couture to fabric mak- CTS and "the little people who make the trimmings.
 Whether any samples of Paris models will be exported before American buyers can get here de- pends upon shipping facilities and production. But Paris does not plan to send over any sketches for copy ing purposes. Considering the crea- tive designers natural urge to pro- tect originality, I doubt if they would ever sponsor such a move. PRODIGIES OF CUT
 Leading couturiers insist they have never departed from the yard- age restrictions ot three and one- quarter meters (about three yards ard 10 incheS) for dress imposed upon them for the last four years Each has accomplished such prodig- ies of cut that a dress gives the im- precision of much greater yardage than 1t took to make it. They as- sured me it would be impossible to reproduce from a sketch, even from a "toile," many of the models, so intricate are the details of cut.
 Paris has been so entirely cut off from the American scene in the last four years that most designers reserved their answers to Does the couture feel that the rise of Ameri- can designers will have any effect on their trends?" until a later date, They hope that when American buy CTS come to Paris they will find the couture has lost none of it's creative genius and that buyers will be able to adapt those ideas to their needs.
