FRILLS Simple Lines Give Class, Distinction BY JEAN PATOU, (Written for NEA Service) PARIS, Oct. 13. The evening mode, in my opinion, should be characterized, above all, by beauty of structure. It is obviously much more difficult to create a model offering this quality and at the same time make It look entirely new, but the first qualification of an evening gown should be one of “class,” which can never be associated with frivolity and frills. In the new evening mode there are a number of details that contribute to the general harmony, but none of these are at all characteristic of any one style, although the general impulse is to consider them co. Simplicity Is Best A definite style, on the contrary, is characterized by the absence of superfluous detail. The line is consequently purer and its whole character expressed in a simple way. I have noted too often that an abundance of trimming or detail tends to destroy the line without adding anything to it. One can say, without undue exaggeration. of a perfectly plain dress modeled on classical lines, that it is handsome. But for that It has to have that aristocratic, thoroughbred look—in other words, be devoid of all superfluous fantasy. The new note, which necessarily has to exist, can be discreetly expressed in its cut. Wraps in Harmony There are several evening ensembles in my present collection that illustrate these ideas. Fashioned of plain, brilliant satin, the new note is present in different technique of cut, in the form of the decollete, and in the different distribution of skirt fullness, which is very sure in its simplicity. A sumptuous and voluminous wrap would not have harmonized with these simple gowns, that is why I have completed them with wraps, extremely simple of line also, but nevertheless showing no hint of banality. Detachable Cape New The plain, straight cut preserves the slimness of silhouette and the new length does not break the line of the skirt, while the very discreet fur trimming avoids any sense of heaviness. The detachable cape is anew feature. Worn with the dress, it makes the latter less formal. Fixed to the fur collar of the jacket, it changes its aspect and makes for added comfort. Although distinction is the keynote of these simple ensembles, they present a practical side which is not without its importance in these times of depression. President's Day Is Observed by Monday Club President's day was observed by the Monday Club, with a luncheon at 1 Monday at the Severin. Mrs. Oll&h Perkins Toph is the new president.

—WHAT’S IN FASHION?—
NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Five big topcoat fashions this fall. All smart. All in fashion. All worn by enough men to stamp them fashionYou can buy them blind —except for one thing. Some of these topcoats are made for you—others are not. Some suit your figure —others don't. The trick is to pick the one that makes you look "like what you ain’t.” ~ . . First is the big favorite —singlebreasted. three button, loosely fitting. Next, is the half-belted, in both single and double-breasted (right-hand figure). Next, front (middle figure). Next, the double-breasted— very military. Finally, the raglan sleeve (figure at the left). Tall Can Wear Any If you are tall, you can usually wear any of these coats. The double breasted model and the raglan particularly. Double breasted coats tend to fill you out. Raglan sleeve coats give you the curves you usually lack. Lots of tall men wear the fly-front coat easily, but it is not quite so good as a coat with visible buttons, which tends to interrupt their height. If you are short, you will look best in single breasted models or the flyfront coat. That’s because the single breasted coat’s straight line will give you length. And the smooth vertical line of the fly-front will stretch you a bit. Be careful about picking a raglan sleeve; you need the shoulder line it can’t give. Belted and fitted backs are fine for you. Points to Watch If you are of average height and build, you look well in all these coats! ' But watch out for these points: If you are slightly heavy, avoid double-breasteds. Raglans are not good, either, because they emphasize your fullness. If you are very broad-shouldered, avoid padded, built-up shoulders. Wear natural shoulders and coats with enough flare to balance their breadth. If you are sway-backed, that is, if you go in sharply at the small of the back, stay away from belted backs and wear loosely draping models. If you are round-shouldered, don’t wear a raelan coat. Gray Is Favorite You’re going to see soft and easy feeling fabrics this fall—alpacas, camel hairs, fleecy tweeds and Harris tweeds. And of course, the odds-on favorite color is gray—a medium gray. Can you afford the outlay for two coats at one time? If you can, you’re smart to invest in two different types. Not much danger of either being outlawed by style during its life, and certainly the changing back and forth is good for your appearance and your spirits. (Coovright. 1931. by Amos Parrish) Next—Amos Parrish reports on the new fashions in turbans.

IF your scalp itches or burns, if your hair is thinning or you are troubled with loose dandruff, begin using full strength Listerine, systematically, as an antiseptic shampoo. Simply douse it on and massage the scalp as vigorously as you can. Literally tens of thousands have rid themselves of a dandruff condition writh Listerine. They are simply amazed by the speed w ith which it gets results. In cases of dandruff the fat glands about the hair become cveractive throwing off a disgusting greasy whitish substance known as sebum. This forms in crusts and scales. Neglect is dangerous The hair, meanwhile, seems literally to be stifled. It grows lustreless, lifeless, falls out. The scalp feels hot and itchy. If the condition is not treated promptly, eczema and baldness may

If infection is present on the surface of the skin, Listerine attacks it. A powerful germicide* it kills bacteria in 15 seconds* the fastest killing time accurately recorded by science. Listerine hfclps to dissolve oily crusts and quickly removes them. And Listerine quickly relieves that burning, itching sensation. It soothes inflamed or irritated areas of the scalp. If scalp is excessively dry, a little olive oil may be used in connection with the Listerine shampoo, or independent of it. The oil aids in dissolving crusts and scales and keeps hair from drying out. Lambert Pharmacai Company, St. Louis, Mo., U.S.A*
