knowledge of Clod which is not a
mat tor of fact but of experience
and a knowledge of humanity and
of one's self which again is not
a matter of fact or a matter of
technique in dialing with people
but which is the outgrowth of self
Hiving love.

Its versatility is further evident in
i he fact that it lias three colors of

written a theme "Strut ford-on-Avon."
Me received the necessary
encouragement to write his theme
when his friend Ida Know told
him a little hit about Stratford.
What did she toll him? Cosmetics
are made in the little town on the
Avon. She ought to know. That i
he kind she uses. Needless to sa:
01 was immediately interested in
Stratford. Ida furnished a package
of green notebook paper and the
genius of Ol's mind was alight.
The sea green ink is used first be-
cause as 01 says "It looked pretty
on tho green paper."
"Tn many books aro noted inter-
esting facts about the historical
old town of Stratford-on-Avon . ..."

ink is not so green anymore lie

There perhaps was never a sea
son before when so many dis-
tinct fashions wore so popular
in other words this season not
any particular silhouette fabric
or color dominates the fashion
scene to the exclusion of all
others. Today the most expensive
costume would not he considered
outstanding unless tho accessories
and color co-ordination made it a
perfect silhouette for that partic-
ular individual. There is enough
silhouette diversity that each of
you can fashionably wear that
which is most becoming to you as
an individual.
There is such a variety of neck-
linos of sleeve treatments and col-
or that you only need the help of
ihe trained experts which you
will find in the bettor stores
everywhere. Necklines sleeve
treatment fabrics and color are
all very important; just as im-
portant as skirt lengths. Incident-
ally skirt lengths are shorter usu-
ally 14 inches from the floor. This
too depends on the individual.
Skirts for the most part are
straight and slim hut some aro
not so straight and some are even
full.
Coats may ho long; that is. com-
pletely covering the dress or suit.
They may he 36 inch length or
they may he shorter; much short-
er. For the most part they are
to the blue ink.
...Among the famous names St-
ratford has contributed to litera-
ture is that of Sherlock Wadsworth.
Listed in his collection of works
aro The Kitven. Th !oc!'t '
Venice and ParadNo !??'"tnH ."
Mr Faithful surmises that since
he blue ink is no lovror wo'
ho must use the fusehia ink. the
only ink remain ins: in his mav''c
nen. Finallv after deciding tint he
had boon the victim of fraudulent
advertising. 01 scumbles through
liis theme. 01 presents the prof-
essor with a twolve-nago thmue
scribbled in a rainbow of colors
nl stackers through English one-
more. Tie greets tho professor wbl"
a yawn trios to stor the oonvov
sal ion to .n topic which ho can dis
cuss and manages to remain for-
"ifrn to the transitive Verb and to
literature.
In the office it has hoen said
that the poor English professor
will lrive a time of it next year.
Mr. Faithful says ho wants to make
another stab at Freshman English.
Pity for the poor professor!
untrimmed; that is they are not
fur trimmed. They may have a
small amount of fur hut most
prefer none at all. There are yoke
treatments and many new detail
! treatments that give them a new
and expensive look. Some have
wear tho sleeves
smart reversible
'new ways to
iand new and
coats.
i
I Fabrics aro in wide assortments.
Besides gabardines there are
many new and clever tweeds flee-
ces suede surfaces with a duvo-
jtyne appearance. The Chinchilla
fabric is perhaps the most popular
of them all in tho shorter coats
tiny cellars and cuffs new sleeve-;
in tho bright colors. It's so colle-
giate and today there isn't any
age for any garment or color.
In dresses you cannot empha-
size diversity enough. You can
find just the neckline sleeve
treatment skirt treatment and ma-
terial as well as shade for you
is an individual if you have the
help of trained and well informed
?ales persons.
Luxurious fabrics are new and
different. Never have black crepes
with slim lines with diverse ex-
pressions of detail been more in
demand than this season.
Sportswear shows a greater co- .
ordination of go-togethors in col-
ors and in fabrics. Corduroys and
jerseys are ideal fabrics and com-
bined they are still the most out-
standing for sports won r. There is
also a revival of flann'!. and flan-
nel is being couibiued with cordu-
roy and jersey. Pin ids have never
boon so exciting and those bright
colors really come into their own
in the sportswear. Some of the
outstanding colors aro sun-orange
pumpkin pomgranate. and persim-
mon. There are a dozen othr won-
derful high shades to select from
any of which co-ordinate bearti-
fully and can be worn together in
those fabrics.
Suits are definitely tailored.
Tiny flaring cuffs are a point to
waich. All '--hades of gray flannel
