made it and it was a work of art.

It was covered in white satin and decorated with white and pastel pearls forming the figure 30 in the

middle.

Clothes for the week-end were simple and very suitable. Elizabeth Hoke’s knitted suits excited much admiration, particularly a light blue one with pastel stripes in the skirt below the hips and in the yoke.

THE NATIONAL SOCIETY OF THE COLONIAL Dames of America in the State of Indiana met with Mrs. Theodore B. Griffith last Tuesday. Mrs. Herbert Hill, as guest speaker, read an interesting paper on Princess Pocahontas and her career from Werowocomoco to Gravesend where she is buried. It was only 10 years from the time she saved Capt. Smith until her death as a great lady in England, but

what a full 10 years it was.

By BETTY LOCHER Times Fashion Editor

EVER before in the history of fashion has lingerie been as exquisite as it promises to be this spring. Gossamer nylons in colors as fragile as dreams create a mood of moonlight and honeysuckle. You will see dawn pink, illusion blue, camellia white and sunrise gold, sometimes frosted with lace, more often strewn with appliqued flowers. There are petticoats to support every silhouet from bouffant tulip skirts to the slimstemmed morning glory skirt that flares out below the hips. Half-slips will be worn on top of whole slips so that an extra layer of frothy lace will frame your legs as you sit. x = = NIGHTGOWNS LOOK more like evening gowns with draped bodices, exquisite pleated bertha collars and dreamy flounces to foam about your ankles as you walk. Many will have their own matching bed jackets or floating negligees. Those photographed above are from the spring collection of Vanity Fair shown recently in New York and soon to be in local stores. “Pettiskirt Perfection” is the

name of the exquisite half slip (far left) with pleats beginning like tiny tucks at the waistline. They lie flat over the hips, then widen out to luxurious fullness. Around the hem a band of sheerest net adds flower-like daintiness. Washing, packing or long hours of sitting will never disturb this permanently pleated nylon tricot. It has a matching slip, gown and negligee, too. » s »

A PUFF OF prettiness (left center) is this delectable bed jacket in rose-printed nylon net. Shirred around a wide neckline, the net falls in perky folds and wafts out into big puffed sleeves that fit snugly above the elbow. It is lined throughout with dawn pink net and is designed as icing for the top of a beautiful matching nightgown appliquéd with roses. Slightly Naughty, center right, a pettiskirt of black nylon net banded with dawn

* pink or aquamarine nylon lace,

will make an exhibitionist of every wearer. The skirt has a luscious swirl but is tapered from a slender waistline so that the fullness is from the hips down. Prima-donna of the collection

Spring Lingerie Is Exquisite

is a nightdress of pale blue nylon, The fabulous skirt stems

from a slender waistline in ‘narrow pleats that widen gradually like the sun's rays

to glorious fullness at the bottom. There an ethereal band of net completes the perfect picture. The bodice is. a custommade creation of the finest hand-drawn alencon lace worked on net.

. PAGE 29 Curling Iron Finds New Importance

ITH hair styles getting shorter and shorter,

it's. no wonder women are

asking how they can keep their coiffures neat and trim. Short, - stray ends spoil the most perfectly arranged hair do. ” : . A droopy bang is certainly no asset to good grooming.

= o ” THE ANSWER to the need, according to one of the best known hair stylists, is a curling iron just like your grandmother used to own. The authority further stresses that this iron is easy to wield, and will definitely help to keep your short hair. looking naturally curly. :

” ” » FIRST, YOU should either give or get yourself a good haircut. The proper shaping is absolutely essential if you want your hair to respond to

setting. Next, wash your hair thoroughly, and towel-dry it.

Have the iron good and warm, but never really hot. Take a small section of the hair, give it a half to full turn with the iron. ? Do this wherever you want curls or waves. When you are all finished, comb and brush the hair into place. The effect — naturallooking curls.

Wash Them First

It's frequently a good idea to launder new ironing board covers before putting them into use. Hot soapsuds wash away their starch finish, which sometimes causes the cover to scorch with greater readiness than it otherwise would:”
