Not all the skirts will be as nar
row as an eel this time. There will
be a gathered fullness back or
front. The backs of some of the
day and evening dresses are ga
thered thickly to give a wide swing
while the front is slim and straight.
The well dresed women will sure
ly carry this idea out this winter,
she will wear a hat especially de
signed for her dinner gowns.
Dress buttons are playing an im
portant part this winter. Wooden
buttons in forms of animal, signs of
tho zodiac, flower designs. Belt
buckles are in the same theme. You
can use your antique coins of gold
and silver for smartness and indi
viduality. Have the coins trim the
suit lapels. Hang a few on your
charm bracelets or into necklines.
Coin buttons are also used on win
ter dresses. And, use them as fobs
for key rings.
Have you seen the new collection
of formal and informal bags? The
new jeweled fabrics are used for
evening bags. Isn’t this full of
sparkle, a rhinestone mesh ...white
rhinestones on black.seed pearls

Black antelopes and satins are de
signed for tea time and dinner cos
tumes. They have extremely odd
Bhapes.forms of bottles, pyra

bag just for afternoon or dinner.
It is black satin with a chiffon
handkerchief tied to the top handle
or pulled under the flap to make
tfcp handle. This handkerchief can
be removed easily and a colored one
substituted. Isn’t that a charming
way to carry out the color scheme
of your cosume ?
If you ane thinking of purchasing
p. new evening wrap for the gay
time soon to be you’ll want to
know about this new material. It
is suede crashproof and waterproof.
Just the thing indeed for crowded

Over 600 people swayed to and
fro to the pulsating rythmns of
Nat Towles’ orchestra at the Sec
ond Annual Ball of Local 465 of
the Protective Order of Dining
Car Waiters, held at the Dream
land hall, on October 27th.
Most attraction was centered
around A. Phillip Randolph, Pre
sident of the International Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters. It
was very interesting to see how
amazingly different this more than
important gentlemen acted on the
night of the dance. As you perhaps
have noticed, most persons in the
public eye whom everyone points
out and is over anxious to meet,
makes one grand appearance, meets
everyone he can in the short time
he is there, and then makes a dart
for tho door. But—did A Phillip
Randolph do this? Not by a long
shot. He made it his business to
meet everyone, watch the process
of the dance and in the meantime
enjoy himself. He stayed the
whole time, and danced the whole
time too.
tCount the other important men
who would do the same thing.
The ball was part of the Con
convention program which gave a
much needed relaxation for the de
legates who worked so laborously
to aecomiplish that great piece of
work that resulted into the forma
ion of he National Council of Din
ing Car Employees.
