Balance Is Retained in New Styles BY FRANCES PAGET <Cop7rlrht. I*3o. bv Stvle Source*' NEW YORK, Apr-L We have been "dressing up.” Paris has been daring in changing the character of our fashions and we have been liberal in our acceptance and recognition of her direction up to a certain point. But there have been warning notes which creators and merchandisers have accepted as danger signals, resulting in a cautious procedure on the part of both in interpreting this season’s fashions. Many approached the spring idea with some, if not much, trepidation, dreading the possibility of frumpish -tyles, furbelows in which no one could look smart, feminine extravagances which would result in •lothing but regrets. Salons Are Busy Behold! the spring season opens, 'roups of imported costumes give interest to specialty shops and dressmaer salons are busy with orders, as the entire world of fashionable women clamor for spring clothes. What a relief to discover that discretion has won out, that style Judgment still has its reserves and that those who direct fashion destinies have no intention of losing their balance. Novelty Moderated It is Just this sense of balance which has been conserved and which Inspired the caption: "Dressing Down the ‘Dress Up Idea.’ “ For on the one hand, there still are certain tendencies in favor of elaboration of elegance, of interpretation of the period themes which always seem dressed up, but on the other, is the sane Intention to moderate the flair for novelty to conservative expression. Extravagance Subdued Here fashion makes a gesture of extravagance, but there she subdues it gently, frequently introducing the style paradox in the balance of abandon and restraint. Subduing influences are many; it is not simply h matter of tailored lines, althoug their importance in this relation is defined. It is evident in the preference for discreet if not almost disappearing patterns in prints, in the emphasis on dark costumes, in the return of pleats, in the muting of flares, in the relinquishing of trains. >

..RIS, April 19. THREE yards of lovely material, and just tired enough to go to bed and not tired enough to sleep, so I thought I would design a nightgown—after all, why have a French maid (who was born in Spain) unless she can make hand-made undie,, for you? Well, it was only 12 o’clock then, but what are fleet' ng hours to art? By the time I had discovered to my surprise and uttermost satisfaction that there were nightgowns AND nightgowns, and that I had designed one of the AND variety, it was 3:30 and not a ham sandwich in sight. And the funny, the extraordinary part of it is, that after all is said and done there’s only fifteen minutes’ worth of sewing on the whole thing! And It has a perfectly divine line as you can perhaps see from the illustration, although pen and ink can not do justice to it. Well, there was quite a wellcovered up sniff on the part of the maid when I asked her in the morning to take the two necessary stitches for its completion, but they never came to life (the sniffs, not the stitches). For the nightgown is lovely and no one can deny it! So lovely indeed and so simple that I wondered where my several hours in designing it had gone. So lovely that I forthwith decided to use the same draping idea with the addition of large sleeves for a negligee. In the illustration I’ve shown you the nightgown which you can picture without the sleeves, and the negligee which has two sleeves like the one I illustrated. But the lines, my deah, the lines! a a a Anybody can make It! Anybody can wear it! Anybody can launder It! But no-o-o-obody can do anything to it without sending a 2-eent stamp to the Dare Department of The Times for the illustrated leaflet for a nightgown that will be the loveliest and most gracious thing you ever saw, and which, with the simple addition of removable sleeves, becomes a lovely negligee. Better send your envelope today, for the leaflets will be ready Monday and this is one leaflet which won’t hang around for any length of time. a a a PARIS goes in for pleating this season in a big wty—l mean, very fine tiny pleating, but lots of it. Pleating is to be found on sleeves near the elbow or at the wrist, on capes, edging skirt tiers and panels, and incrusted on the waist or skirt in what is known as the ’’line.” It is always self-material and consequently unobtrusive, but wholly smart. a a a YOU know what I mean by incrusted pleats, don’t you? Well, it’s what would be called, if it were lace, insertion—strips of pleated material sewn into the garment. Sometimes this pleating is sewn flat at both edges, sometimes only atone edge and left to hang free as though it were a ruffle. a a a Tricking up the kitchen—well, if you just haven't gotten around to sending your 2-oent stamp to The Times for ths leaflet, and you do send it today—well. I’ll send you this week’s illustrated leaflet of kitchen tricks. a a a An Revoir! Entertain for Children Avalon Country Club Easter party for children of members will be held at 3 Sunday afternoon.

TIME MOVES 1 BACKWARD, IS SCIENCE VIEW Flight Forward or Opposite With Equal Facility, Newest Theory. By United Prets NEW YORK, April 19.—“ Two way” time—time which moves backward or forward with equal facility—exists in physics and chemistry, according to a revolutionary theory proposed by Dr. Gilbert N. Lewis of the University of California. Dr. Lewis, who, with Dr. J. McKeen Cattell, - psychologist, Thursday night received the 1930 gold medal of the Society of Arts and Sciences, advanced his theory in a paper read to the society. The new theory boldly banishes the thought of time moving in only one direction. Illustrative of 1 is new theory of "two way” time, it was suggested that it was conceivable that events of today are among the factors which caused Caesar about 2,000 years ago to cross the Rubicon. Lewis offered no direct proof of this thesis, but it was offered by way of clarifying the idea that there is no positive future or past, but that one exerts a "pull” on the other. Under his theory there would be rejected the idea that yesterday preceded today in any absolute sense. "The concept of time moving in one direction is forced upon us by the phenomena of our own consciousness and memory,” the paper said. "Yet if we should construct a moving picture to represent the motions of the solar system it would be just as satisfactory if it were run backward. And the Newtonian laws would be equally well obeyed.” Dr. Lewis agreed with the recently expressed theory of Dr. Robert A. Millikan of the California Institute of Technoloby, that the world is enduring, not undergoing a process of gradual destruction.
