spending two weeks with Mr.
Snyder’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.

tin was caught in a hail storm
above the clouds and, after
vainly attempting for two
hours to reach an airport, was
forced to land in a vacant
field. The plane was complete-
ly demolished.
Asked if he'd ever fly again,
he replied with a quick “You
bet. But never again without
first buckling my safety belt.
We wouldn't have been hurt at
all if we hadn't been thrown
from our seats!
The Snyders have been at
South Bend for the past four
years where Martin is employed
by the Bendix Corporation.
Kiwanis Women
Hear Columnist
Cynthia Cabot Speaks
On European Fashions
Many women of the Back Moun-
tain area and surrounding commun-
ities gathered Wednesday after-
noon at Trem Temple Country Club
to hear |Cynthia (Cabot, [Philadel-
phia fashion expert and columnist,
address the Second ‘Annual lunch-
eon of Wyoming Valley Kiwanis
Women's (Clubs.
Miss Cabot, spoke chiefly on the
European fashion centers, [She ad-
mired to a great degree thé crea-
tions of Italian and French design-
ers, stating that the Italians con-
tributed much artistry and color,
with the French excelling in de-
sign.
Fashions start at the top and
gradually reach the lower brackets.
Americans, she remarked, are for-
tunate with their ready to wear
industry, which enables all classes
to dress well within their income
range. In contrast, there are only
the very rich and very [poor classes
in France and the latter must
either make poor garments, or hire
some seamstress to fashion (clothing
for them.
It was also astounding to hear
that although the American dollar
is eagerly sought after to help
French economy, no imports from’
our factories are allowed there.
Procedures of [fashion showings
were interpreted by the speaker.
Models usually ascend a large stair-
case and whisk rapidly past specta-
tors so ‘that mo creations can be
copied before the new fashions are
announced. ‘American girls are much
preferred as models, their slim, tall
figures displaying the latest fashions
to much greater advantage [than
the tiny waists and wide hips of
the French girls.
Welcome was given by Mrs, Don-
ald Harris, president of Dallas Ki-
wanis Women’s Club, which acted
as host. She introduced Mrs. Mit-
chell Jenkins, [program chairman
who presented the speaker. Also
introduced Were presidents of
Wilkes-Barre, Kingston, Forty Fort
and Nanticoke Clubs.
Tables were most attractive with
baskets of spring flowers and gold
and white dolls.
