Program Is Arranged by Local Club January meeting of the Indianapolis Council of Women will be given over to discussion of subjects chosen by the women at the meeting Tuesday at the Woman's Department Club, according to Mrs. Allen T. Fleming, program chairman for January. "Communism in Indiana’’ will be stressed, Mrs. Fleming said. Other subjects scheduled for discusison are "Prohibition,” "Birth Control,” "Indianapolis Traffic Rules and Regulations," and “United States’ Repudiation of the Gold Standard.” William E. Hacker was speaker at the meeting Tuesday with "Social Service Problems” as his subject. Hacker is assistant supervisor of public schools. “Every school, church, fire and police station are potential soup kitchens,” said Hacker, stressing the fact that there is great need for a central place for the distribution of relief. "The question of the mentality incompetent also is a part of the relief situation,” Hacker continued. "Something must be done for the unfortunates who can not compete with the normal in the community. Too, we must consider what to do with young women who are so low mentally that they are not able to protect themselves and who are responsible for bringing into the world more feeble-minded children. ‘‘Another group to be considered are slightly better than feebleminded whose vocational trades are being replaced by machinery.” Hacker urged the women to use their influence in promoting necessary legislation that will remedy the situation. Mrs. Frank Symmes, council president, presided, assisted by Mrs. Bl'x>mfield Moore, December chair-

-WHAT’S IN FASHION?— New Wrappings for Christmas Gifts —Directed By AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—Nobody can blame you this year if, when all your Christmas packages are wrapped and tied, you decide to keep them all yourself. At least, not if they’re done up in the new papers. There's one consolation, though. The packages you receive probably will be just as smart looking as those you give. Because today hardly anybody thinks of using plain white paper

BY JEAN PATOU (Written for NEA Service) PARIS, Dec. 2.—Undoubtedly the extreme simplicity of hats which were the style some seasons ago provoked an era of fantasy both in shapes and trimming almost synonymous of reaction and sometimes bordering on the extravagant. This reaction was all the stronger as it succeeded upon a period of great lassitude. Anew mode often is translated by excessive fantasy. I tired of the small hat when everybody else was tired of it, too. As far back as two years ago I had tried to bring about a change by showing, among the other hats that formed the basis of my collection and adopted the style then in vogue, a few models that frankly

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

showed an unaccustomed complicated and some of them even showed the same basic shape as the current style. To my great pleasure, they were adopted instantly, by a small number of smart women, but I was disappointed later to see the failure of my efforts against the monotony of hats. n * n IT is really only within the last few months that the inevitable step forward has happened. It is quite natural that where hats are concerned, and seeing that the sense of frivolity is far more acute here than in dress styles, a brusque change of mode should be characterized by exaggeration. I can say frankly, though, that I

Illinois Girl Wins 4-H Club Style Revue With $24.90 Dress

BY JOHN B. MILLER United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 2.—A 15-year-old brunette from Illinois, dressed simply in green wool with a tan hat, shoes and hose, was singled out from thousands of envious girl competitors today as the 4-H clubs’ 1931 national "grand champion” in its style dress revue. Little dark-haired, brown-eyed Annette YonkeloWitz from Hoopeston, in eastern Illinois, won that coveted honor Tuesday night with the modest ensemble she planned and made for only 24.90, from undergarments to smart gloves and cream colored handbag. Three other winners, among contestants from thirty-five states, won first place in the cotton school dress, semi-tailored silk, and informal party dress divisions. Annette placed first in the tailored wool group.

Dashing modern ones. Patterns to please tne children . . . such as Alice in Wonderland. Patterns for the animal lover, such as Sealyhams. Scotties, birds and gazelles. And such a variety of good oldfashioned Christmas trees and I holly and bells and candles done in a modern way. You even can have heavier fancy 1 papers intended to be used for outside mailing wrappers. Ensembles of paper and papertying ribbons, both in the same de- ! sign, are new. And there are en- ! sembles of paper, stickers, ties and inclosure cards. Incidentally, these paper, tinsel or fiber tying ribbons are less expensive than real silk ribbons. Yet they make better looking bows—perkier and fresher looking. Don t you just love to get a package all dressed up with new papers and bows? Isn’t it much more thrilling than just a package done up in the same old way? There are fascinating new ways of doing up Christmas packages . . . simple but so much more effective.

never allowed myself to follow the wind of follj) that swept across the modistes. In hats, as in clothes, character should be the first consideration. A plain hat can b 6 extremely smart, and quite as distinguished as one trimmed. Nevertheless, it must be admitted that a certain relieving element is necessary in most cases. This element, however, never should be synonymous of complication.* In principle, too, the note so fantasy should not be carried out in all the details of the hat: I mean, in the medium and shape as well as in the trimming. ONE easily can see at the moment how the smallest trim-

American history in the east next year, are Louise Morgan, Buchanan, Ga.; Helen Louise Thomas, Amesville, 0., and Mary Marley, Ashland, Mass. From practical school dresses to inexpensive party gowns, the girls' models fit the times, each contestant seeing that her costume was produced as cheaply as possible, without sacrificing appearance for economy. Cotton dresses predominated. With only $15.65, Louise Morgan, one of the south’s prettiest entries, was able to complete her prize-win-ning brown cotton school dress. Massachusetts’ Mary Marley was content to win in her group with a modest green voile party gown which cost $19.76, and for a mere $14.37 Helen Thomas, the Ohio entry, produced a smart brown and “sand” silk dress. The champion, 5 feet 3 Inches tall, was one of the smallest and youngest of competitors. Her ensemble was a green skirt and bolero jacket and tailored blouse. With those items, which she cut and sewed herself, were harmoniously matched the blonde hat, shoes and hose, and her gloves and handbag.

Regulate in Public Interest People are asking how regulation can be equalized between the railroads and other forms of transportation. One way would be to impose upon other forms of transportation all the regulation which now applies to the railroads. Another would be to remove from the railroads all the regulation which does not now apt ply to other forms of transportation. Still another way would be to consider each item of regulation separately and to determine whether or not that item serves the public interest. If it does, apply such regulation to all forms of transportation; if it does not, remove such regulation from all forms of transportation. The latter method is earnestly' recommended. After all, the only sound reason for regulating any form of transportation is to serve the public terestConstructive criticism and suggestions are invited.

ming instantly lends an undefinable air of elegance to a simple hat if this trimming is high, as a quill, and provided, of course, that the effect is not lost by being worn with too voluminous a fur collar, or the shape of the hat itself is not too massive. Aside from trimming, there are hat fabrics, today that are a fantasy in themselves. Felt, too, is often braided or crocheted, and these, of course, are self-decorative. A point that always should be kept in mind where hats are conheaviness, which every one knows is cemed is that too much fantasy in all three elements that go to make up a hat—fabric, shape and trimming—inevitably impart a look of contrary to all rules of elegance.
