color spree. For that matter the
new clothes have already started
that
promises to outcolor even the most
colorful seen for many a year.
Not that this color orgy writes
finis to the simple black foundation
dress that provides such dramatic
setting for stunning costume jewel-
ry and for accessories that splash
color accents in vivid highlights. No
indeed! The black dress with dashes
of color is holding its own.
The intriguing thing about the col-
ors exploited this season is that they
are distinctively out of the ordinary
The colors heard most about and
seen dramatized throughout Paris
collections are the purples and
plums, the mauves and violets and
fuchsia shades. In fact the entire
gamut of violine shades is run.
Comes next in the limelight the
much talked of teal blue and fog
blue and that rapturous blue made
famous in the ever-beloved Blue Boy
portrait painting. In fact, we are
to enjoy a season of “blues” that
are subtle and lovely beyond de-
scription.

Fur Jacket Adds
Chic to Costume
For ultra chic on an autumn day
the smartest formula calls for a
dress of an alluring wool weave
topped with a youthful and jaunty
fur jacket. No-end versatility is ex-
pressed in these voguish fur-jacket
costumes.
A likable model includes a con-
servative black dress of handsome
dull-finished velvety surfaced deep
pile wuol. With this milady wears
a swank short skunk jacket. There
is a huge gold jewelry piece at the
throat and the belt of the dress is
detailed in gold.
A gray tweed coat dress is topped
with a gray kidskin lumber jacket.
A bolero of sheared beaver sur-
mounts a dress of brown clogue
weave and so on.
Even Trimmings
Turn to Jewels
The flair for jewelry display is
reflected in the new jewelled trim-
necklines of many of the newest
daytime dresses. The latest mod-
els are arriving, bedecked with
necklace effects that are jewel-ap-
pliqued right on the very fabric it-
self. So realistically is this done
to all appearance it seems like an
actual necklace or perhaps huge
pendant suspended from a chain.
The idea is clever and presents
no-end opportunity for ingenious de-
sign. Not only jewels but metal
cabochons and locket effects and
leaf motifs combine to add a decora-
tive note.
Femininity Note
The feminine lingerie effect is not
limited to blouses and vestees but
frequently characterizes the whole
making special appeal with Ameri-
can women. There are also a num-
ber of fascinating greens in the
present fashion spectrum, notably
bronze, hunter, laurel and tapestry
greens. Autumn rust and coppery
tones are also going big.
Coats are yielding to color to a
surprising degree. Leading stores
re devoting entire window displays
to coats in purples and deep plum or
wine-dreg tones. These are superp-
ly colorful and with opulent furs
present about the handsomest ar-
ray of coats ere seen.
As to the gorgeous plaid or striped
wool coats so outstanding in the new
fashion picture, the only way to re-
sist them is to close your eyes and
flee their color glory. Better still,

Much of costume design in the
new fall fashions is based on a
draped technique that is designed
to slenderize the figure. Below in
the picture is an example of adept
draping in slate blue silk jersey
which sort of intertwines the mate-
rial in a manner much approved by
designers. Illustrated at the top is
an unusual draping of royal blue
acetate jersey against the black
sheer of a sheathlike frock done in
the latest bi-color manner. In every
dress collection the bi-color theme
is widely exploited. The ostrich
trimmed tricorne and the doeskin
gloves are royal blue.

The form in which wheat flour
makes its appearance on the table
is of less importance than the fact
that it is and should be an essen-
tial item in the family food supply.
That is because it offers a rich
supply of fuel value at little cost.

A Symbol of Progress
It is a tribute to American en-
terprise that the world’s largest
| flour mills are now to be found in
staffs of technicians and research
chemists supervise every step in
the preparation of the flour which
may pass through as many as 17
grindings and be subjected to 180
separations.
Experts begin by checking the
quality of the grain while it is in
transit to the mill. But their work
does not end when the flour
emerges pure white in color and
| unbelievably fine in texture, after
| having passed through silk boing
cloths of 100 mesh or finer. After
that, there are baking tests, day
after day, to be sure that every
sack which is sold is of uniformly
high quality.
Self-Rising Flours
An ing development of
recent years has been the self-ris-
ing flours and other ready-to-use
mixtures. Some of these contain

ng powder, so that only a Mquid
