those beautiful fashions - but
when those temperatures begin to
fall and heating becomes a prob
lem why then it isn't such a bad
idea to be appropriately dressed
in warm clothes.
Orange tones are being echoed
everywhere and you might think
of including something orange in
your fall wardrobe because it's
gypsy spark to any outfit. Try
= perhaps by adding a chiffon
handkerchief either pinned to
your jacket for filling in a decol-
letage.
We've saved this for the last

up to Jean Desses to convince
us that not all mink is "out of
this world" It would be if it
could be designed like the coat
we saw at this house tina. had
strips of mink separated by heavy
luxurious brown fabric. 1t had
an all-mink coat beat by nun
dred yards in its styling. It was
magnificent!

By Josephine Lowmon

I am not trained in the matter
of rinses and dyes but I know
how much they can do for a
woman. Since so many requests
fo.' help along this line come
through my mail I asked an
expert for some advice for you.
MI. Robert Fiance is noted hair
designer and Director of the Hair
Design Institute in New York.
AS a trainer of professional
hairdressers, Mr.. Fiance knows
that one of their greatest prob
lens is trying to work with hair
that has been abused by improper
rinse applications. Such hair may
become dried out, limp, lifeless,
resistant to a permanent or even
fail to hold a wave.
Mr.. Fiance believes that the
most benefit from hair rinse
can be obtained when 1t is admin
istereo by a professional beauti-
clan. although he acknowledges
that many women are in the
habit of rinsing their own hair
at home.
These are the suggestions he
passed along to you. Rinses ac-
compllsh two things. They may
impart a sheen or add color to the
hair. The so-called cluster"
rinses, however. may also make
the hair appear lighter because
they cause the hair to reflect the
light more easily.
A high luster may be obtained
by using a lemon rinse. or. to a
lesser degree, vinegar rinse. For
the former add one tablespoon
of strained lemon juice to a pint
of hot water. Rinse through the
hair. catch it in pan and re-
rinse the hair four or five times.
Allow the rinse to remain on
the hair for about ten minutes
and then rinse it out with clear,
tepid water.
For the vinegar rinse. add one
tablespoon to one quart of water
and rinse out with clear water
Immediately after the application.
Mr.. Fiance suggests the use of
ordinary water softeners, bor-
rowed from your home laundry
if you live in a hard-water terri
tory. He says these are very help

agant use of horsehair or crino-

runs) or elaborate jeweled en-
broidery that one wouldn't dare
sit upon. Then too there are sew
eral of the don't you dare walk"
silhouettes that if you were fool
ish enough to want to stride in
would bring you fiat on your face.
But Paris fashion never has
made point of recognizing the
emancipation of women as far as
fashion politics have gone!
So much interest is evidenced
in the Jean Desses collection that
we hardly know where to begin.
Take the group of afternoon
dresses of sheer woods with neck
lines designed to show off the new
bulkier and glittering jewelry.
Then there's the texture interest
to be noted such as the new woolen
moire fabrics. There are sashes
of fur girdle belts new
combinations of colors such as
black with chestnut or green :.
wraps of velvet and wool that must

one of fashions. favorites this
coming season because it allows
for a great deal of movement in
the slim look that seems to be all
the French designers are Offering
IN the way of skirts for day wear.
Teddy bear fabrics are used
extensively as in jersey and the
panel treatments on skirts which
each designer calls something diff
ferent. We wish more American
designers would use jersey for
dressier clothes instead of just
relegating it to sportswear.
Many long sleeves dot the
dresses. One very important rea-
son is that it's cold over here in
the winter. And those wonderful

PARIS, France-This season
has been one of the busiest for
French couture members where
American buying has been con-
cerned. The reasons may vary but
the main one may be that Ameri-
can buyers feel that should any
unforeseen events crop up-and
they might not be in Paris for the
spring collections-at least they
will be reasonably covered.
Jean DesseS is considered by
many to be one of the few French
designers to score in recent years
and who has managed to main
tain his reputation for sound and
consistently good If not always
sensational collections. The buy
ing has been quite heavy at this
house because of this fact.
At DesseS' we were impressed
with his colors including burnt
topaz shades he calls Tintair gold,
canary diamond. starlight blonde,
and golden topaz. All these shades
will soon be available to those
women who will want to match his
clothes with hair of the same
shade.
Swathed hipline treatments
have been favorites in many col
lections and DeSses does a nice
job of that detail in a black velvet
suit.
DeSSes' coats with attached
stoles are terribly exciting. Also
the stole of wool matching the
tailleur is a wonderful trend if
American women who take to it
will want to learn how to use the
stole properly and with some
fashion fair. You can't hold the
weeks groceries and manage to
manipulate a stole. So be pre-
pared to choose one of the two.
Evening clothes are somewhat

many of the French evening
clothes we found hardly func-

demanded that all fashion be

OLD EYEGLASSES.

NFTOW MIS-. A. L., w WGSfLIIgLOI.t
Poor vision in hundreds of peo-
pie will be corrected this year
through the efforts of a unique
organization in Short Hills, New
Jersey. 1t is called New Eyes
for the Needy, Inc
Old eyeglasses and reading
glasses of every type are collected
by members of the Short Hills
Junior Service League, which
sponsors the project. They are
then carefully sorted and redis-
tributed. In 194S 600 pairs of
reading glasses were sent to the
Frontier Nursing Service in Ken
lucky and the Seamen's Institute
in New York; 1,500 pairs of empty
shell frames went to Europe, and
500 pairs of sun glasses were sent
to the American Institute for the
Blind.
Metal frames are melted down
and redeemed for cash. Gold
scrap in any form is also sought
by the organization. Like the
metal frames it is melted down
and resold. This creates a fund
for supplying new prescription
glasses to those who cannot af-
ford to purchase them.
In 1913 the latter service was
confined to Northern New Jer-
sey. where a needy person would
simply apply to a hospital clinic
or certified welfare agency fol-
glasses. Recently, however, the
