It was a Fashion Show, but with
a difference, at Dallas Woman’s
Club meeting Wednesday night.
Fourteen models tripped down the
aisle in the meeting room at the
Library Annex, pivoted slowly, ex-
hibiting their attire, and disappear-
ed, according to custom. The differ-
ence was that everything shown
originated in the Value Shop. Even
the announcer, Mrs. Jonathan Val-
entine, modelled a three-piece out-
fit in tie-silk from the bargain
racks. Melanie Hellersperk wrote
date phraseology of leading cout-
ouriers, describing each model in
terms of line, material, cut, and
suitability. She prefaced description
by saying that no well dressed
woman ever is guilty of exceeding
a count of fourteen in assembling
her costume. Shoes count for one
point, but if stitched in contrast,
two points. Gloves and hosiery,
each a point, a hat four points, ear-
rings a point, ete.
Janet Jenkins modelled a yellow
brunch coat, Elaine Allen a scarlet
jersey blouse worn with a scarlet
and green plaid pleated skirt. Iris
Pardini showed a casual sports jer-
sey in beige, Grace Richardson a
basic grey jersey.
Loretta Williams showed a pastel
suit. As each model appeared, the
size and price were announced, the
price bringing gasps of disbelief, the
size a breath of envy. Mrs. Valen-
tine hastened to reassure the gath-
ering. There were plenty of sizes
thirty-eight and forty on the racks
at the Value Shop, but models who
could be coerced into exhibiting
them in person were scarce. Nines
easier to persuade.
Janet Goeringer appeared in a
soft jersey with unpressed pleats,
Loretta Williams showed a pastel
suit. Elaine Allen had a return en-
gagement with a wine gabardine.
Doris Maturi modelled a soft
dressmaker suit in powder blue.
Mildred Commons went down the
aisle in a.royal blue flecked tweed
suit which was so becoming to her
that she bought it. Mrs. Valentine
interrupted the show long enough
to say that a good many of the
models had fallen in love with the
garments, and handed the treasurer
the purchase price of the Mediter-
ranean blue tie-silk she herself was
wearing, slipping off the jacket to
show the low-cut sun-back, suit-
able for cruise wear.
Madge Swepston modelled a soft
grey suit. Grace Lee showed a navy
linen topped by a blue and white
stole, Abbie Kautz a raw silk casual.
Evelyn Eck wore a black basic, ac-
cented with jewelry. Janice Lamb
another black, in wool, with brace-
let sleeves.
Elaine Allen and Doris Maturi
modelled raincoats, belted and loose
hanging.
Florence Davis showed an English
greatcoat in shaggy grey wool over
a red wool dress. Mrs. Lee modelled
a casual coat in neutral wool over
a stone blue crepe dress; Mrs. Davis
a long-lined princess coat, dressy,
with a shawl collar. Mrs. Lee came
back wearing a wine broadcloth
coat in long lines, with grey Per-
sian lamb trim.
Doris Maturi showed an after-
five frock, a cocktail or short eve-
ning dress with a removable jacket;
Janet Goeringer a soft blue faille,
self button trimmed, featuring un-
pressed pleats; Janet Jenkins a slim
velvet skirt with a low cut cash-
mere top.
Evelyn Eck modelled a white eve-
ning or dinner dress embroidered
in sequins, low square neck; Grace
Richardson a blue taffeta; Loretta
Williams a two-piece black faille
with rhinestone buttons; Madge
Swepston a long evening dress in
black. Janice Lamb showed a long
Kelly green evening gown with hor-
izontal tuck treatment and a bateau
neckline. :
Lettie Culver was called from the
floor to show a red wool dress she
had recently purchased. Abbie
Kautz modelled a sleeveless tur-
quois net over stiff taffeta, the an-
swer to a mother’s search fer a
Iris Pardini showed what could
be done with a white dress by
shortening it and employing the
surplus material. Evelyn Eck mod-
elled a bridesmaid’s gown in pale
green organdy over taffeta.

ready named: Mesdames Richard
N. Stouffer, Franklin A. Wagner,

Plays Host To
Arthur Knight
District Governor
Making Annual Visit
To Thirty-Seven Clubs
Arthur R. Knight, Scranton, Gov-
ernor of District 262, Rotary Inter-
national, who is making his annual
visit to each of 37 Rotary Clubs in
Pennsylvania, spoke last night at
the meeting of Dallas Rotary Club
at Irem Temple Country Club.
He also conferred with President
A. Hanford Eckman; Secretary, Les-
lie Warhola, and Committee Chair-
men on Rotary administration and
service activities, on plans for par-
ticipation by Rotary Club of Dallas
in the world-wide observance of
Rotary’s Golden Anniversary, Feb-
ruary 23 to June 2nd.
Mr. Knight, General Manager of
the Euston Lead Company in Scran-
ton, and is a member of Scranton
Rotary Club, President of Scranton
Y.M.C.A,, and a member of the
State Executive Committee, the Na-
tional Council and the International
Committee of the Y.M.C.A. During
World War I he served as an officer
in the French and U. S. Air Forces.
He was elected District Governor of
Rotary International for the 1954-
55 fiscal year at the annual Rotary
Convention in Seattle, Washington,
last June. He is one of 220 District
Governors supervising the activities
of some 8,300 Rotary Clubs which
have a membership of 389,000 bus-
iness and professional executives in
89 countries and geographical reg-
ions throughout the world.
Wherever Rotary Clubs are loca-
ted, President Eckman asserted in
discussing the Governor’s visit, their
activities are similar to those of the
Rotary Club of Dallas, because they
are based on the same general ob-
jectives — developing better under-
standing and fellowship among bus-
iness and professional men, promot-
ing community betterment under-
takings, raising the standards of
business and professions, and fos-
tering the advancement of good
will, understanding and peace
among all the peoples of the world.
Each year, this world-wide ser-
vice organization continues to grow
in numbers and strength. During
the past fiscal year, 448 new Ro-
tary Clubs. were organized in 51
countries of North, South and Cen-
tral America, Europe, Asia, Africa
and the Islands of the Pacific.
