FIRST NEWS FROM PARIS AUTUMN

SHOWS EMPHA- SISES: Fullness; at back in coats and dresses; military lines to suits, wide shoulders; fitting sleeves; -bustles, tunics and aprons for afternoon dresses; plain moulded bodices to ac-

centuate waists; hats fitting closely on back of the head.

IT.

PARIS.

Was almost a fore- gone conclusion that the autumn and winter fashions of 1939-40 should have a somewhat military air.

But the fact that these military inspirations are, for the most part, drawn from the more or less ro- mantic period of 1779 softens the blow a good deal. Although, I must say that some of the full-length trim coats, with fullness all to the back, and a few of the hats are a little uniform of our own Guards.

A green velvet jacket! with a black tie-silk frock which! had a high stiff starched white collar and was worn with al cocked hat fringed with ostrich feathers, was one of the most successful outfits because it combined all the new fashion points.

The frock had the long fitting sleeves, widened at the shoul- ders, which is likely to be a feature of these collections, and the moulded bodice and the neat waist which marks most of the dresses here. The starched

Salad greens-lettuce, ro- malne, watercress, chicory. endive, escarols-should be washed at once, shaken free of excess water and put into a lightly covered dish to be crisp and cold for serving.

Comfortable Shoes

For the bench and pattering about your lawn sockless. choose fabric sandale, clogs or the Mexican hurachos. made of-woven-strips of leather. Whichever you choose, get something that will it comfortably and stay on without having to strain your toes to keep them there. Such shoes are cool and will allow your feet to get plenty of fresh air and exercise,

Choose comforable shoes for the house and dress wear, too. Your feel will tend to swell slightly on hut days, so you'll be wise to get your shoes about a half-size larger than you usually wear.
