QUEEN OF SCREEN Now Dictates as to Fashion —Say That the Smart Dressers Will Don GABARDINE FROCK Though Serge is Smart, the Lady Will “Die of Chagrin” if She Misses It. This coming Autumn, well we ween, Be she a shopgirl or a queen. If she would be of stylish mien, Each dame will don the gabardine. So say smart dressers of the screen. ’(By Margaret Rohe, Written for the United Press) Los Angeles.—Why go to Paris for your fashion hints, when in California you can so easily tell 'the forecasts of the mode by the stars—movie stars, of course —whose film fashions picture the latest wrinkles evolved by French designers almost even before Parisienues get on to them. Out in Holly-

wood, where the stars do move in their Universal orbits, to say nothing of Paramount, Pathe and Goldwyn courses, the Paris decree has the cinema sanction that the 1919 model maid and matron will meet the first tang of Au-’ tqmn in garb of gabardine. This sounds so different from the inevitable' serge in which she has repelled the .•first coolness of divers preceeding falls. Yet so alike are serge and its first cousin, gabardine, and its second cousin tricotine, that only a close scrutiny can distinguish these three twilled triplets apart. But oh, what that subtle little difference does mean to the fickle feminine! Though last year’s serge frock be smart and chic, still she will die of chagrin till she grabs a gabardine. Anything to get away from the navy blue serge that has shown which way the fashionable autumn wind blew for » so long a time. Though the gabardine does not surge far from its family resemblance to serge, at least it is draw- ’ ing the color line. With joyous abandon, it abandons the blues and goes ' in strongly for all sades of tan and brown. In spite of prohibition, Fash- ’ ion does seem to have a dark brown ’ taste this Fall. Os course, blue will ’ not be doffed completely, but it will run second to the brown shades this year even though it is guaranteed not ’ to run. Gabardine of black, too, prom- ' | ises a dark future even as our past [ has been dark with black satin all ’ the summer.

Many new touches differntiate the modish gabardine frock from its relegated relative, the serge of yesteryear. Braid all ways and always will bind it and band it and run it round and round. Mamie may not be there with her hair in a braid, but her gabardine frock will be braided enough to make up for the deficiency. Even the bottoms of the not-too-long-not-too-short-but-always-full skirts are braid bound instead of hemmed. Braid finishes seams in seemingly fashion, picks out pockets and outlines collars. Braided designs of lavish ornateness also ornament the more I DELCO-LIGHT ! i Ihe complete Electric Light and J Power Plant ! Plenty of bright, safe, clean electric | ■ light.

elaborate frocks, and frogs of braid, animating many a skirt and bodice, have jumped high into fashionable favor. Galloon galore, which after all is a short of glorified braid, bright ens with its dull gold the brown 1 shaded gabardines particularly. The high light of a yoke or guimpe of or gandie or batiste adds a frivolous and softening touch around the face on I the black or blue models, while batiste or net in ecru tone does the same for the tan, brown or henna models. Undersleeves of those sheer materials are very chick with three quarter bell shaped sleeves of the gabardine, but Or sleeves ’ according to or arm contours, are equally permissible.
