To be well-dressed, dress yourself, says Elizabeth Hawes. a leading creator of women's styles and author of "Fashion Is Spinach," which should give you an idea.' "Fashion." says M ss Hawes, "comes and goes fast very fast. It is mainly promotional, on the surface. But style Is intimately connected with personality. If clothes are right for you and well mndo, you can wear them till they fall to pieces." "How is one to know what is right?" she was asked. Fat. Fatter; Short, shurter. "It's really very simple," she re plied. "Take whatever outstanding characteristic you have and dress ac cordingly. If you are fat. dress to look fatter. If you are short, drss lpha Deltas See Calvon to look shorter. "I am short, and I always wear clothes that make me look shorter. Of pniiTsp I'd like to be tall au:l all The Alpha Delta class of the First j tnnt but fthort has Its com- Chrlstlan church met yesterday after noon for one of the most interesting sessions of the season.

People open doors Tor me. they look after me. "The well-dressed woman donsn't long to be something she cannot be. She has herself down pat. She knows what she looks like, who she Is. and where she's going. Money has noth ing to do with being well-dresse.. It's an expression of personality. "The trouble' with women," she concluded. "Is that they won't look at themselves. I have seen them trying on dresses and holding their hands In front of their hips to hide what they don't wish to see." Pcpliini and Such. Brown-eyed Miss Hawes is five feet three inches tall and weighs 110 pounds. She was wearing a plaid wool suit with a sleeveless coat and a full skirt with a peplum. It was the full skirt and the peplum that broke the line of her attire and made her look shorter. Your Interviewer is no authority on things like peptums, but he Is of the opinion that the suit Miss Hawes had on was most be coming. Miss Hawes. who was a professional dressmaker at 12. is a graduate of Vassar. After graduation she studied designing in Paris; a few years later she created a rensntlon in fashion circles by taking her own creations to Paris. Her riresmnklng house here employs 80 girls, three of whom are models. Her dresses start at $05 (for a summer creation): for an evening dress It's $135 and up. "Ami Shoot Yourself." Her genius lies in the selection of unusual materials, which may range from rare. Imported stuffs to ordin ary burlap for trimming. Full cf rich, warm colors, her creations have a timeless air. -.tornal femininity Black she dislikes, because, she says. it's unbecoming to most people- But you can have it If you want it. "Buy a black dress." she Is fond rf saying, "and then shoot yourself. The color of a garment, she holds lias nothing to 1o with the color of your eyes, as many people suppose. It's the skin that is the deciding factor. Skins, she says, arc "green," "pink" and "ycllowlsh-green," chletly the last. She thinks styles change only when fundamental changes occur in peo ple's lives. The World war. for ex ample, released women, but, she says, they confused freedom with mascu linity and tried to achieve flat fig ures like men. The result "was hor rible." Now there won't be a fundamental change until there's another blow-up. up. "And then?" "It's pants next for women," she exclaimed. "They'll be too busy for dresses In the next war." A special CCC train carrying 273 replacements for camps of the Med ferd district arrived here last night. The train was commanded by Lieut John W. Page of Camp Applegate. with Lieut. Romulus W.
