There was a white tweed evening wrap with an undertone of ' metallic glitter. , There would be more to come, the designers pro-

Beauties’ Hints—

Way to Keep Nails Soft

By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer FINGERNAILS that wrestle with pots and pans and mops can look as glamorous as the idlest flock if polish is put on after chores are done. You can keep nails from snapping or peeling, control cuticle and forget what hangnails look like if you'll wear rubber gloves for dishwashing, cotton gloves for dry work, But before you put on working mitts, do what a glamorous career girl 1 know does.

# » ” REQUIRED to wrestle with chores in a maidless home, she strips off polish and bandages naiis with oilsoaked strips of gauze before donning her mitts. When chores are polished off, she does as much for her nails. It takes only 10 minutes, she says, to turn drudges into sparklers.

(One good line is Johannne Jensen's, gt Wasson’s, Block's and Ayres’. A pattern, two or three balls of wool and several spools of the metallic yarn will turn the trick. This year there will be even more variety in the metallic yarn. The Dobeckmun Co. which develops the non-tarnishable thread fibers used in the yarn, has produced some new effects. An array of different colors combines with gold and silver: Purple or red or green with either metallic effect, for example.

New York Designers Claim :

Style Makers Deny They're Trying to Force: Their Fashion Ideas Upon the Consumer NEW YORK, Aug. 25 (U. P.) —It's the woman herself who will decide the fate of the new fad, the longer skirt. : ie That was the consensus today of leading dress dasigners who were polled by the New York Dress institute. Here is what Adele Simpson had to say: “While I believe women are going to change thelr minds and love the way they look in the new styles, I think it's silly to carry on about it. “After all, most women have dropped ‘obey’ out of their marriage service, What makes them think a fashion designer would try to dictate to them?" Said Jo Copeland: “No fashion designer can force her ideas on the consumer. We merely suggest a new way to look. The final Judge is the woman herself.” Nettie Rosenstein sald: “You can have your choice, as always. This is a transition period. Again, women are trying to assume that
