A few years back, Fiorello
LaGuardia, New York’s peppery
mayor, was addressing a group of
Salvation Army workers before
a large audience. The mayor gave
a long and fiery speech in praise
of the organization. At the finish,
the plate was passed. When it
came to LaGuardia, he reached
into his pocket for money. A
blank look came into his face
when he could not find any. He
fumbled desperately in all pockets.
Sensing his predicament, the
commissioner of the Army said in
a loud voice: "That's all right,
the Salvation Army is the right
place to come to when a man
hasn't a nickel!"

The man who has just dug a cellar
for anything may find he is just the
custodian of a hole for the duration
of the war.
Director Donald M. Nelson says
that if you have a building partly
finished he will try to take you out
of your position in mid-air, but it is
more than likely that the man with
a house only 50 per cent finished
will save himself a lot of trouble
by just putting a sign "Opened By
Mistake" on the whole project.

a season when it is every woman's
duty to look her prettiest In gowns
designed to “do something for you."
Now that sparkle for daytime
frocks us well as evening gowns
is Uie vogue the new fashions are
playing up glitter for all it la worth.
Every woman should yield to the

and the gleam of beadwork and
jewels. A dress or suit of this de­
scription will prove your standby
for almost every occasion. Pictured
are several eye-appealing fashions
selected from a collection of day­
time modes designed and displayed
by the style creators of Chicago at
a recent winter preview.
The good looking black crepe tunic
dress shown to the right emphasizes
its molded shoulders and hipilne
by means of steel nailheads. Shown
with it is a high and handsome hat
of colorful feathers. You will make
a well-dressed appearance in this
dress wherever you go.
To the left a dressier type spai

jacket has rhinestone pockets and
is worn over a dress with a sheer
yoke outlined in rhinestones.
Speaking of sheer yokes, they ure
a new styling detail that is being
worked in fascinating and versatile
ways.
The latest dresses have

There is a double

Over Your Formal Gown
Here is a perfect gown to wear

this slick town dress designed by
Joseph Whitehead is in the best
American tradition of perfect work-
manship.

Like a Cape
An English idea borrowed for our
sport coats: Ribbon bands to slip
your arms through when you just
toss the coat over your shoulders,
like a cape.
In the very newest sophisticated
dresses something happens to hem­
lines that give skirts an entirely
new aspect That “something” is
that hemlines are made to plunge
down in the back achieving a most
graceful, pleasing new silhouette.
For the most part the new "lines”
are seen in slim black dresses for
smart afternoon wear, and in nar­
row, seductive evening skirts.
In
the formal skirts the narrowness is
relieved by a slit at the side that
reveals your beautiful evening slip­
pers.
Handkerchiefs
Fur fashions lead
the way in
novelty handkerchiefs with 22-inch
chiffon squares bordered with gen­
uine ermine.
"Naughty Nineties"
handkerchiefs are reminiscent of the
era when every taffeta dress was
the background for a big, bold cab-
bage rose.
Brilliant colors and

tured in this group.

take a new lease on life bright­

weskit, cap and mittens. Later
you’ll sport these with your ski
suit or skating outfit, a gay trio
which you can make in brightly
colored wools, suede or felt. You
can have loads of fun making
these accessories, too, so much
that you’ll enjoy making them
again and again as gifts for your
admiring friends.
