NEW YORK, N. Y.-It's the
subtle, and sometimes not so
subtle, changes that give the
business of fashion its real inter-
est. The varied interpretations
of designers as to what they think
women would like to wear in an
approaching season is always
newsworthy.
Fashion seems to be taking a
"breather" as to great changes,
this season, and it's relief to
see designs based on intelligent
approach to living.
Hattie Carnegie has built up a
fabulous business on this premise,
and sticks to it. Garishness Of
detail, extravaganza of design are
eliminated here, and this season
she shows a collection that is in
keeping with her philosophy
clothes for women who appreciate
fine workmanship. detailing, and
who are willing. to pay for them.
She continues to show brief curved
jackets topping slim skirts in
spring suits. These are in soft,
wonderful shades of pink, blue
and gray, a little lighter than
last year. Beige is strong here,
and so is a peachbloom color. The
skirts of dresses of fine sheer wool
are not full blown, but have the
fabric worked around the hips so
that form and shape result, rather
than bulkiness. Princess coats with
small leather tab belts are ex-
ecuted in soft tweeds. Carnegie
picks up fabrics associated with
street clothes, gives them airs for
the evening, and a longer length.
Shantung and cotton react to
this beautifully. Her knits are
always wonderful and this season
they are sleeveless.
Tucking, shirring, gathering,
pleats and shirt treatments that
remind one of old-time window
shades with their gathers are
seen extensively this week. One
beautiful bit of drapery-a spider
web type, was done in purple
chiffon gown with an assymetri-
cal neckline.
Derby's Show Wonderful
Jane Derby has quite a few Of
really show-stopping necklines,
including one that is square cut
front and back and goes from
shoulder to shoulder. She has
enough fashion notes to fill three
columns. Here briefly are some:
A travel costume consisting of a
reversible coat of navy wool cut
on Chinese robe lines lined in
burnt almond silk taffeta. A two
piece dress of navy jersey .
A burnt almond jersey vest .
And a full-length Zone of the
few seem evening skirt in burnt

dominant here.

Paul Pornes' ldeos
Paul Parnes has dresses with

pin pleats. set in two panels on
either side. Honors here are di-
|vided between slim and full skirted
suits. One dance frock of white
silk shantung in a princess style
with deep v neckline cuffed in
scarlet moygashel linen, was most
attractive, and so was a beige linen
trimmed with silver and turquoise
embroidery. The MILDLY influ-
ence was seen in a navy sheer wool
with white linen collar and cuffs.
The jacket had more shape than
the true MILDLY because it was
brought in around the waistline.
Print dresses are back. but def
initely. In the silk group they are
most effective. Elizabeth Arden
showed a very nice one of pure silk
mocha and black herringbone
print. Sleeveless with double bows
at the neckline, a full pleated
skirt, and three-button jacket
with turned-back cuffs. Polka dots
may cause spots before your eyes.
Get used to them. They'll be
around.
Just about the handsomest
coats to be seen in New York are
at Ben Zuckerman's. From silk
coats to coat dresses with easy
surplice lines-to the Lesur WOOL
Iens-they're terrific. Using stitch
ing for detail in some cases, and
a minimum of buttons another
time, and with coats of wool pick
ing up the color of shantung suit
ings, Mr.. Zuckerman proves a
master of the field this season.
Three-quarter sleeves are used al

introduced by him and his
white coats for wear with street

Dior Agents Youth
At Christian Dior's the minia-
ture belt trims a number of suit
jacket and coat backs. Lace
dresses get younger In styling
every day. He shows a couple
that are in keeping with this
young approach. He says his hem
lines are somewhat longer than
those of last fall. We wouldn't
mind too much If his models
would wear high heels with the
clothes but they, too, are getting
closer to the ground with shoes
that have cuban" heels. Wrapped

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Bearish
sentiment weighed down the stock
market this week and defeated all
attempts to get ahead.
Trading was extremely slow,
prices were thoroughly depressed,
and the week ended with every
one just standing around waiting
for something to happen.
This is the third straight week
that the market has gone down
since 1t touched the peak of the
year as measured by the Asso-
ciated Press average Of so stocks
late in January at $102.10.
Today the average held un-
changed at $99.80, representing a
fall Of $1.l0 on the week.
Trading was thrown out of step
when the market closed Tuesday
for Lincoln's Birthday. The pre-
vious day was the second slowest
OF the year with prices lower. That
trademark of "slow and low" con-
tinued Wednesday and Thursday.

Chinatown is block south
Shepherd Court a block north,
and all around is asphalt, brick
and concrete.
So it didn't take long for the
children in the neighborhood of

being leveled for a play area.
More than so of them flocked
to the playground in the 900 block

gate. Then they broke through
and started trying out the play

In fact, it's only a piece of prop
