play its part with the consumer.
Consequently, many a product be-

not just an individual. The cost
of a French dress to a manufac-
turer is higher than one sold to an
individual customer. And the cost
Of a French dress is two and one
half to three times more than 1t
was before the war.
The actual existence Of the
French couture depends on the
number Of individual women who
buy clothes in Paris. With much
new wealth being enjoyed, many
women are travelling abroad and
purchasing them. But with coun-
tries like Germany, Austria, etc..
out of the buying picture the
French apparently are knocking
themselves out to entice American
individual buyers. store buyers
and manufacturers.
This enticement has led many
American designers to agree with
Jane Derby Zone who went this
season. that the clothes seen to-
day in France fall far short Of
ones seen in the past. Workman
ship is generally poor. Models are
eagerly snapped up anyway. Ac-
cording to Miss Derby. I'VE are
drifting towards bad taste" It
wouldn't be a bad idea. she sug-
gests, If we took good look IN
both places.
In Miss Derby's opinion, the trip
over is good for it possesses color,
excitement, new atmosphere and
often is a fine object lesson in
seeing what you yourself don't
want to do. She feels 1t Is ex-
tremely foolish to think fashion
is only in Paris. ANY Of the
capitols Of Europe have q lot to
offer in fashion inspiration" she
feels. Regarding the American
buyers who sway French coutu-
riers to design what they will
buy, Miss Derby has little respect
for them. Likewise she has little
patience with the manufacturer
who goes and then kicks about the
lack of what they have seen. Let's
use the trip for inspiration and
then come home and make our
own," Miss Derby insists. For
America to see. buy and copy
exactly is devastating to the French
and at the same time to US.

his colleagues justify the trip
to see what the French collec-
tions are like, citing the case
Of the violinist who on his day
of goes to hear another fine vio-
linist. What they buy over there
in a great many cases is truly
MAGNIFICENT and "hits the heart
with its beauty" It's never too
much tralble or pain In France
for them to develop q new color
or a new fabric for their designers.
Mr.. Reig feels our own American
creators design far better things
for our own people. But ideas?
It's where you, f1nd them. It
seems Paris has quite a hidden
store that she dips into each sea-
son and with which she lures the

Children's Sandwiches

Plan nutritious filings for chill
dren's sandwiches whether they
are to be eaten for lunch at home
or at school. A peanut butter
favorite is made with peanut
butter, chopped cooked prunes
and pickle relish. This is a
quickie that even the children
could put together themselves.

Rich Fruit Salad

On some menus nothing can
take the place Of a rich sweet
fruit salad. One OF the quickest
and best tasting is made with
drained canned fruit cocktail and
sliced bananas. Toss them lightly
with cream cheese that has been
softened to dressing consistency
with some of the syrup from the
cocktail. Chill and serve in
crisp lettuce cups.

are harvested each year In the

Fashion Editor.


NEW YORK.-This Fashion
Editor went to market. Not a con-
ventional market with stalls filled
with glowing fruits and vegetables.
A market more on the order OF
bazaar where wares are exhibited,
bargaining goes on, and profits
realized. And then off we go again
on the same cycle at super high
speed.
The market" is that area in
New York's garment district on
Seventh Avenue that manufac-
lures about 70 per cent Of the
nations dresses. During the war
its buildings housed a number OF
$40, ,000-a-year men. These men
weren't in professional white-col-
lar jobs, either. They were
presserS.
How is it today in the garment
industry? In addition to reports
dribbling in steadily via radio,
press, garment industry publicists,
buyers, and inter-city gossip, we
decided to do a bit of marketing"
on our own.
Nibbling on our first fashion
carrot we discovered that it's Paris
once again OCCUPYING thoughts,
conversation, and in some in
stances governing the designing
and manufacturing Of clothes that
often appear neither French nor
American in feeling.
But Paris it is! It is said
Paris has authority, tradition.
Many claim Paris always has had
it over the American couture.
Others vary in their feelings con-
cerning the Paris influence.
When Paris first opened up
in As few manufacturers went
over. Those who did didn't even
want it aired about. Steadily
as the seasons have changed so
has the number of Seventh ave-
nue. manufacturers. It reached an
time high this August when
practically every 7th avenue man
ufacturer took "the trip"
Reports began circulating that
September collections would .,e In
the of1ing. These September COL
|lections used to be included in
many manufacturers schedules
prior to the war. American fash
ion people would return. There
would be q mad scramble to make
"overnights." Result was that
many dresses were shipped too
late to do either stores or the
consumer any good.
This September sees few pop
ular priced lines showing quick
adaptations. Higher priced houses
have refrained from doing so.
These houses prefer to look at the
French designs through their own
eyes and noting a new lapel, a
section Of skirt, combination Of
fabrics, colors, and then making
their own clothes. Most Paris
trends win be reflected In Spring
lines.
According to Herbert Sondheim
Zone manufacturer who stayed
home). Paris prior to the war was
greatly overpublici4ed. Today
magazines are playing up Paris to
greater degree than Is neces-
sary. Steps were taken to avert
this strong Partisan influence that
once again has cropped up in
American design. Like Mr.. Sond-
helm. we find it hard to accept
the fact that American women
would want copies rather than
American designs regardless OF
the "snob appeal vested in the
names of leading French couture
members.
Mr.. Sondheim traces the way
a magazine may give birth to a
design or an idea with q Gallo
twist. Unlike . newspaper which

Fruit Prospects
Look Excellent

Fruit prospects in Ohio continue
to be excellent. T. H. Parks, in
sect control specialist at Ohio
State University, says that apple
scab is we'll under control in
sprayed orchards. That, according
to Mr.. Parks, is unusual for Ohio
orchards.
Codling moth hasn't made any
serious threat so far either. But
Parks warns that the battle
against codling moth continues
through the rest of the sesaon.
The fruit picture isn't all rosy
though. Parks says that curculio
is causing more damage than US
ual. 1t has caused some deformi
ties in apples, but the crop is so
heavy that apples which are cur
culio-blemished can be thrown out
without much loss.
Then too, rosy apple aphis is
causing some damage. Some
apples in the middle and lower
parts of trees will be understood
and deformed in some orchards
