They are definitely going for forest greens, oranges, yellows, and browns. Sounds like the outdoors fall colors. As to hemlines, they seem to be the same as last year and more to the point, they should be the length that best suits the indiv idual. But please, not back to those lengths nearly to the ankles, as viewed in the home movies we saw, which were taken not too many years ago! Then again not those short slim skirts that you spend the whole even ing trying to keep down while sitting. Many dresses now in the shops are of the shirtwaist style with gathered or slim skirt. A clothing fad for this year is the elbow patches on eirls clothes. wny, it wasn t too long ago when the kids wouldn't have dreamed of wearing patched ciotnes! ooo A POTLUCK bridge party was summer fun for 12 eals as they were entertained at the Car michael cabin at Camas Prairie Saturday by Juanita Carmichael and Inez Huffman.
