Girl Scouts Have Attractive Home Complete Show Booth
An attractive both of the eighth annual home complete exposition at the fair grounds this week, one which warrants the attention of everyone who visits the show, is that of the “Little House” project of the Indianapolis Girl Scouts.
It is a little white house with spacious lawn and garden and the little flower boxes at the windows. It represents a project which councils of eighty other cities have put into successful use. The aim of the local organization is to build a house, similar to the one on display outside of the city, where scouts and their guardians can spend the week-end and where those girls who do not have opportunity to learn the daintiness of home making can go to pass their cooking, bed-mak-ing, gardening, and laundering tests. It will be a club house for those “homemakers of tomorrow.” On the four walls inside the house are diagrams of the badges that the girls can work for in the “Little House,” a chart of pictures of the “Little House- ’ all over the country, compiled at the Girl Scout national convention at Colorado Springs last fall, pictures and information concerning national cookie day, and pictures of Camp Delwood. During the display, girls will demonstrate the different home-making tests and members of the council and the local directors of the Girl Scouts will be at the booth to explain the project. The entire display was donated by different concerns of this city.

Society Goes Strong f o r Basque Tam BY FRANCES PAGET • Copyright, 1929. by Style Sources) NEW YORK, April 5.—A most interesting sidelight on the vogue of the beret Basque has, been received from a correspondent in Cannes w’here the little tam peculiar to the natives of the Pyreness seems to be enjoying tremendous favor. Here it is. “There is no use talking about it, something had to be done about the beret. With every smart woman all the way from St, Sebastian through the Italian lakes and the Tyrol to the highest point in the Engadine wearing this foolish little peasant cap which can be bought in any small shop on the Basque coast for ten French francs what could the couturiers and modistes do but throw up their hands and exclaim ‘What shall we do?’ “Two or three seasons ago the wearing of the beret at Biarritz and the other resorts on the silver coast started as a fad, but it has gained such a firm hold on the affections of its w’earers that it is here to stay at least another season. From Fad to Favor “It has proved so comfortable for motoring, golfing, yachting, the races, the beach and for all outdoor sports, to say nothing of the fact that it can be tucked in one’s pocket when traveling and is so adaptable to all needs and moods and blends itself admirably to any attire. “For a considerable time the modistes have been creating hats on the Beret style, but today Chanel is making a beret that is not a modification, but is frankkly a beret. Featured by Chanel “They have been designed for all occasions and a feature of the Chanel shop here. “There are some knitted ones of jersey w’ith dull colored stripes in circles and there are others of knitted chenille in solid colors. There are some fuzzy ones and others of soft woolen in plain colors, too. These are designed to wear with jersey with tweed-costumes. But the most fascinating ones are made of sequins.” Department Plans Program The business and professional women’s department of the Marion Department Club has arranged an interesting program for Tuesday night in the Marine room of the Hotel Spencer. The program will include an illustrated travel talk on “Italy,” by Lillian Gay Berry, Indiana university. A group of piano numbers will be given by Pearl Siegart. McDonald, Muncie.

Bii Times Special NEW YORK. April s.—Milidy’s skirts of 1929 are going to be the most capricious creations sinr:- the first cave-woman draped herself in the first tiger’s skin.

ning it will be as discreet and secretive as Lindbergh’s wedding plans. These, at least, are the aims of the leading Parisian designers, as set down by Baron de Meyer, Harper's Bazar expert, after a preview of the creations to be shown along the Rue 1 de la Paix. “Patou, for example, has made his newest departure in accentuating the difference between day and evening fashions” he says in the current number of the fashion monthly; “All day his clothes undoubtedly are longer, though not likely aver to attain the length of his new evening dresses, which are down to the ground, both back and front. They hide the limbs, envelop ankles, and render feet almost invisible. “Probably the most striking feature of the new clothes, aside from the vacillating skirt-line, will be the application of modernistic designs—-zig-zags, geometrical patterns and futuristic whatnots—to both day and evening clothes, in bold contrasts of shade. “Lanvin makes great use of modern patterns, such as squares, triangles, lozenges, as well as a number of other geometrical designs. Open work, treated in futuristic designs on frocks, especially in woolen textures, is very new,” says the Harper’s Bazar article. “For a great number of afternoon gowns, printed fabrics, in most instances satin, are being used. Some designs resemble exploded rookets, this pattern being repeated in many colors. And in evening gowns, organdie, for instance, cut out in lozenges, patched and assembled like a puzzle on a net foundation, never has been done before. “For this season’s jersey patterns, Chanel has been inspired by tweeds. They include small checks, stripes, horizontal as well as diagonal, squares made of fine lines and zigzag effects, all having a look of tweed, but of tweed become frivolous.” “Poiret, probably the most venturesome of designers, offers a series of unprecedented day and evening coats, “which comprise such intricacies as scarfs developed into capes, terminated by sleeves. Or again, intelligently conceived seams resulting, when such seam is placed diagonally across the back, in a sleeveless cape one one side and a sleeved garment on the other.”
