SELDOM seen outside her showroom during the season, Carolyn designs inspired clothes, sells them with enthusiasm, recreates them on the spot. She visualizes promotions, plans with editors and manages to be as gay as she is efficient throughout the day.
Her actual designing of a line is a most serious time for her. It is preceded by study in the Brooklyn Museum or the costume division of the Metropolitan, She works with fabric firms who create many special weaves, patterns and colors to her specifications: She is a realist in both design and selling and manages to give originality a salable quality.
Treks for Ideas
FOR THE past five years, Mrs. Schnurer has each season taken a special trip under the sponsorship of a retail store, or group of stores, who wish to introduce something new in their sportswear collections. Her travels have carried her from the border of Asia to the glaciers of Alaska. Perhaps her most famous promotions were the Irish trip which sparked a new fashion theme— and the most recent trip to Greece which led to tunic beach wear, popularity of pleated silhouets and bold use of black and white on the beach.

Hands Need ‘Continual Care,
Wear Gloves for Housework
YOUR HANDS will show lack of care more quickly than any other part of your body. Therefore, as you do your housework, take precautions—gloves, soap, hand lotion and hand cream—to keep your hands from going rough and red. When you wash the dishes, don’t put your hands in hot dishwater without first slipping on rubber gloves. Use rubber gloves for any household task involving the use of water.
Massage Hands For all other cleansing, use WHEN you take off the gloves, fabric gloves. Before you putimassage your hands, working them on, coat your hands thor-|from the tips to the palms.

Two Piece
Keep a bottle of hand lotion near the kitchen sink. It's quicker than hand cream so you'll use it more often. Remember to dig your nails into a cake of soap before you begin any cleaning job, even though you're wearing gloves. The soap will keep dirt from caking under your nails. Dirt can penetrate gloves at times. Use a nail brush frequently during the day, particularly after gardening or any outdoor chores. Wear gloves for outdoor tasks, of course, and see that they are washable white cotton. Keep several pairs to that you always have a clean pair on hand. -
Travel Hats Pack Flat Light Felts Fold Without Crushing
Hats which can be packed flat in a suitcase, crushéd into a coat pocket or sat upon with no distressing damage are essential to any travel wardrobe. The designers hope, of course, that women won't sit on hats. But it’s nice to know that if it happens, the hat will bounce right back into shape. x It ‘was not so long ago that most travel hats could be classified merely as coverings for the head. They were shapeless at the outset. % Designers lately have worked out hats which are good to look at as they are handy to have on a trip. From Emme, for example, comes a non-crushable cloche in featherweight tangerine felt. The petaled crown, which is stitched in navy, is set over a band of navy grosgrain ribbon. The brim, also stitched, has a profile-flatter-ing point at one side. A Robin Hood hat from G. Howard Hodge is done "is raspberry felt. A good traveler, it has a tall, softly manipulated crown stabbed with a bronze quill. This hat can be folded flat in a suitcase, Another hat which voyages well by land, sea or air is a deep-fit-ting cloche by Anita Andra. In gold felt, it has a narrow cuff brim and a deep fold at one side,

Reaches the Top
. By LOUISE FLETCHER Times Woman's Editor R. JOHN, one of New York's unpredictable milliners, comes up with a new angle on the hat problem for fall and winter. He plans on making actresses of every wearer of Mr. John hats. Says he, “Every woman is born to be.an actress.” And he wants them to be on stage in Mr. John hats dramatizing their personalities. To help them do that, he offers a series of hats with names sounding like play titles. “Peter Pan” is a feminine version of the little boy cap, with a small rounded crown and a narrow visor of sleek satin felt in Tophat Black. A matching “Curtain Call” veil completes the theme, This one is from his Stage Door Johnnies group in the theater-inspired collection. “Belle of New York” is a brimmed bell cloche., Gathers of brilliant Footlight Yellow velvet are caught with loops of black. A tiny black feathered spray and a fine face veil are accents. 3 Still another chapeau presented with a nod to the theater is “Astonished Heart,” a cocktail and dinner hat. The gleaming black porcelain-like leaves of this tiara headdress are ideal for a blonde leading lady.
