Lady Lions Fashion Show Highlight of Convention Women seem always to enjoy a fashion show, and the one planned by Medford Lady Lions for the pleasure of delegates attending the annual convention of Lady Lions proved to be one of the highlights of the session. It followed a luncheon at the Rogue Valley Country club Monday noon, and was an interesting combination of present and past fashions. Models were Lady Lions and their daughters, and opening the show Was Miss Diane Fries wear ing a sun dress brought from Hawaii. It was of white, with de sign of green. Another Hawaiian sports' ensemble was modeled by Miss Phyllis Neely, who wore peddle pushers of Fuji silk with Camisa coat of matching fabric. These also were of white and green. Mrs. M. J. Maulsby modeled a black nylon taffeta swim suit with side lacing, and a white terry-cloth beach coat, while Mrs. William Bacon afforded a contrast by appearing in a 1900 bathing suit. This modest little black outfit had knee-1 e n g t h pantaloons gathered just below the knee, a short-sleeved middy blouse top and was worn with a ruffled bathing cap and stock ings with white ruffles around the top. An aquamarine colored after noon dress with matching bolero jacket was worn by Mrs. Robert Morris and Mrs. Larry Schade Jr., followed her on the pro gram wearing an heirloom flan nel and lace dress of egg-shell color with high neck, tight sleeves and many, many buttons. Mrs. Schade carried a black satin parasol and wore black shoes of the same period as the dress. Mrs. Arlon Skinner appeared in a frock of tapestry rose Pima cloth, a sheer cotton, with plaid skirt and a velvet belt, the use of velvet with cotton being one of this season's newest fashions. She was followed by Mrs. L. J. Cox wearing a cotton print with black lace trim that was doubt less very fashionable in the days of ' My Merry Oldsmobile," which was the song Abby Green played as Mrs. Cox paraded among the luncheon tables. Mrs. Tom Flynn modeled a classic shirtmaker type dress of rose colored Salonika and in contrast with this present day style Mrs. Alvin Perkins appear ed in an old-fashioned afternoon gown of beige and black moire worn with a big picture hat with long plume. When Mrs. Perkins raised the hem of this frock a little she revealed striped hose and high-laced shoes. She also carried an heirloom purse, an alligator bag more than 100 years old belonging to Mrs. Flynn. Another gown which brought exclamations from the audience was a chintz formal dress model ed by Mrs. Skinner. Red straw berries were printed on a black background and the belt was of red velvet. A dress from the early '20s was worn by Mrs. David Wil liams, the frock being eggshell taffeta with points of black vel vet on the skirt. Miss Neely then modeled a dress of the new "theater" length of brown and white em bossed organdy with hat to match. She was followed in the fashion parade by Mrs. Schade wearing a gown from the era of "flappers" with shingled hair, the dress being a black chiffon, heavily beaded. The cloche she wore, however, was not unlike those shown this spring. Mrs. Maulsby modeled a blue evening gown of lace and mar quisette with a little capelet to cover the shoulders and Jeannie Green, the club soloist, modeled a polka dot afternoon dress of pure silk crepe as she sang sev eral songs. Distinctive Draw Draperies WI MAKE THEM Wakefield 2nd Floor Medford Furniture, The show closed with wedding dresses of long ago and today. Mrs. J. W. Wickman was the bride of yesterday, wearing her mother's wedding gown, 65 years old, of grey crepe made with a close-fitting bodice and a bustle. Mrs. Williams was the bride groom wearing "white tie and tails" and a curling mustache. For the final scene of the show Miss Fries wore a bride's dress of white marquisette with a quaint little bonnet holding an illusion veil. Mrs. Morris wore a maid-of-honor's gown of pink marquisette and the bridesmaid's frocks of aquamarine marquis ette were worn by Mrs. Skinner and Miss Neeley. Their head dresses were of horsehair braid. Present-day gowns were from Burleson's store, and Leonard's Flower shop provided bouquets for the bridal scene.
