Netu Paris Gowns Bring in Longer Fitted Lingerie Ity Din na M orwin (Associated 1'ress Fashion Editor) PARIS (&) The froth of silken lingerie which smart women are wearing under the newest Paris creations is longer, lacier and more filled than it has been Ja many a day. . The short, straight, clipped-nff chemise which the fashionables wore under their feminine frocks is going. It is almost as old-fashioned now as tho straight-line chemise frock. Sots of slip and drawers have replaced step-ins and chemises In many fashionable houses us the lingerie makers' recognition of longer frocks. The- now slips, designed to reach within a few inches of the frock hemline, avoid a definite waistline, or any excessive fullness. They are generally cut on the bias, fitted a bit at the wuist, and fall to tho hemline in gentle fullness. A gown fits over 'them as smoothly as over a window-dresser's form. Kvon night-dresses, worn twelve inches from the floor not long ago, have dropped until they now sweep around the instep in soft folds. They are more popular sleeping garments than the much -touted pa jama, too, stylists declare, al though p:ijamas hold the spotlight for lounging in the boudoir. Britain Guarding Women'sRights to Keep Age Secret LONDON' (A) The power and prestige of the itrliish government arc being marshalled to aid wom en in keeping a secret. The approach of the official census April 2( has been heralded by grumbling among the women of the land, most of whom steadfastly decline to reveal their age. i As 1i pacific gesture, the govern-! ment has decreed women need tell their age to only one person tho head of the house, who is under pledge of strictest secrecy regard ing the secret. Jn the event the I head of the house divulges the age jiiven him for census purposes, ho, or Fhe, is liable to prosecution. Women living in hotels or boarding houses aro required to tell the proprietor their ages, but that person is also under pledges of strict secrecy.
