Excess calories are a weighty matter to people careful about their silhouettes! Yet, you’ll see these folks truly enjoying Sterling beer—without anxiety as to what the scales will say. When thirsty, they choose Sterling, because it contains fewer calories than many common beverages. Sterling is brewed from nothing but natural grains, and that also gives Sterling its wonderfully refreshing true beer flavor—never sweet or sugary.

I Fashionette Red Highlights the Autumn

Fashion Picture

(By Hazel L. Griggs for ANP) Red, a real, honest-to-goodness fire engine red, is burning up the autumn fashion picture. Bright and blazing, it is being featured in early fall coats and suits as well as in dresses, and is extremely attractive • Combined with black or worn with black accessories, these bright, dashing creations are taking top honors in all the fashion showings. particularly smart number, rating lots of applause in one of the recent fashion reviews, was a slim-fitting, red wool coat made in reefer style with slightly flared, skirt, and double rows of buttons parading down the front. The perky beret worn with this suit was of black beaver, the kind you .wore to Sun-.^ day school as a little girl, and a red quill shot out jauntily from the underside. The big, gloves and shoes were of black suede. A suit shown, also, used the popular red and black combination. The brief, nipped-in, red wool crepe jacket topped a black skirt of the same material, and the soft collar of the jacket was of curly, black lamb. Still another outfit, a decidedly debu- ' tante type frock of deep, rich black had a splash of color in the long-sleeved bolera of bright red piped with curly black lamb. Red i s also being seen with grey and, surprisingly enough, with a new shade of autumn green sailed Robin Hood green. This is a soft shade of green—a sort of bright olive, and mixes beautifully with piquant red touches. Green .drawstring bags lined with red taffeta are popular
