r pHE Clever Fingers Contest starts Sept. 9 and closes Oct. 9. The idea of the contest is for you to pass on to other women your trick secrets of making this, that and the other thing, whether it be something to sew or something to decorate, in fact anything at all except cooking is permissible.

You see, it’s one thing to know how to make things, another thing to know how to write, and a third thing indeed to know how to TELL SOME ONE ELSE IN WRITING how to make these things. That’s what you are to do, to sit down and tell in the fewest possible words, quite simply and as though you were speaking to us. how you make that favorite romper or negligee or teddy or frock! Don’t worry about your sketches, they can be terribler than terrible—if you just mark bow many inches this part is and how many inches that part is, so that it can be understood by the person who reads it. Rules of the Contest , EVERY letter must, be TYPED (sorry, but it just has to be that way so we can be sure to understand it.) Use one side of the paper only. Write your name aftd. address on EACH sheet of paper. Make your drawing either in pencil or ink. or colors. Don’t inclose a stamped self-ad-dressed envelope, but send your idea as a SEPARATE LETTER, whicn can be forwarded unopened to Dare who will be in New York. Mark on the ENVELOPE “For Clever Fingers Contest” so that we may forward it to her. tt tt tt List of Prizes THE winner will be announced Nov. 1, by Telegraph to The Times. The flrist prize will be a street ensemble, dress and coat, designed by Dare and made by her Paris dressmaker, who will receive the instructions by cable. This ensemble will be designed to fit the figure and coloring of the winner. The second prize will be a chiffon dinner dress, also designed to fit the coloring and figure of the wearer, and made in Paris by Pare’s dressmaker. The third prize will be a negligee designed by Dare, and then there will be ten prizes for the next best ideas. These prizes will be Dare’s booklet entitled “Clever Fingers,” made up of twenty-five leaflets in an especially printed edition. tt a e COME on, everbyody! Get busy, send in your ideas! You needn’t be an artist, you needn’t be anything but concise in what you write and draw —just so we can understand it. Don’t forget—just HOW TO MAKE SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW HOW TO CUT OR MAKE OR DO BETTER THAN SOMEONE ELSE. tt tt tt MEMBER our “Exquisite Bird” design? Well, hard on the heels of a letter from her exiled Russian marquis, postmarked China —the letter, not the marquis—came two letters asking if we would not PLEASE reprint this particular bird design. . . Coincidence that, because the marquis had his bird woven into a lovely shawl for us. We’ll tell you more about the shawl after we see how much duty we have to pay on it! tt tt tt LITTLE new Ideas for sale for a two-cent stamp sent to the Dare Department of The Times. Twill buy you the leaflet that tells you how to “pretty up" your boudoir! n tt a Au Revoir!

SEPT. 7, 1929

Hats Show Wide Range of Variety BY FRANCES PAGET Copvright 1929. bv Style Sources NEW YORK. Sept. 7—All revolutionary ideas presented this season are not centered on dresses and coats. The hat naturally must be developed along the lines of the prevailing silhouette. Hats therefore widen at the side in some instances, broaden at the back in others, and in nearly every case slip back, or appear to. so that one gets an unshaded view of brows and eyes. Velvet, which has struggled for admission into smart circles, at last has been received alone or in the company of felt or soliel. There is a reversible body which is manipulated on the head so that one gets the benefit of either side, and there are other millinery interests, as for instance, the smart use of such fabrics as tweed, the acceptance of double face satin ribbon. the use of glittering pins and perhaps more important style the admittance of flat fur. Trimmings still are discreetly used, A feather pad close to the face, or some other tiny, and often very bright, feather is allowed and of course there are bows, usually at the back, but sometimes at the side. Long back brims balance shallow front crowns, and crowns are nothing if not shallow. The down-in-the back movement is ably sponsored by Alphonsine. Agnes and others and was perhaps the most impressive of all hats during the chic racing season at Paris. There are, however, many turbans which are dragged out to a considerable width at the side, but whatever the direction of the brim, the brow i* exposed.
