' Mr- nd Mrs. Eugene Jamei Costley Elegance Defined as By Leading Parisian Br BARBARA MILLER United Press Correspondent Paris (U.R) Elegance, lead ing Paris dressmaker agreed to day, springs from the personal ity, not from clothes. The dressmakers are begin ning hectic preparations for their summer dress collections, and to women the world over these hows are the epitome of ele gance. "But it's the person who is elegant, not the dress," said the famous Coco Chanel. Chanel and others could not put their finger on just what elegance is. It is an indefinable quality. According to Jacques Heim, "elegance is not made of fea thers, stones and brilliant colors. It is not made of anything you can touch or see." Heim think this if a lady is worthy of a second look she is elegant. Christian Dior said elegance is not expensive, even though some of his creations cost $2000. "But the fundamentals of ele gance simplicity, good taste and grooming are at the dis posal cf all pocketbooks," he said. "All one must do is be care ful to choose clothes that fit the personality." Chanel thinks that elegance is making the body' comfortable "The dress should fit the natural lines.',' ' But Dior thinks otherwise. "Camoflage is very important," he said. "Perfection is rare in this world and a lot can be done with padding and cutting." Castillo of Lanvin injects an other rule, one that will make the Irish unhappy. If you want to be elegant, never wear green, he says. But all the designers agreed on the basic rules of elegance: Simplicity, unity and fluidity of line from head to toe. Dress correctly for ttye occa sion and the hour. In other words, don't wear sports clothes to dinner. The now-fashionable lunch to dinner ensembles cope perfectly with this problem. Don't wear accessories of the same color. This rules out the red Woman Takes 44 Years To Get College Degree Kansas City, Kan. (U.R) Mrs. Arthur J. Mellott, wife of the chief judge of the federal dis trict of Kansas, finally got her college degree, but it took her 44 years to do it. Mrs. Mellott, 63, had planned back in 1911 to attend Vassar. But a young Kansas school teach er came along, and sne forgot all about college to become Mrs. Mellott. , Now, after raising two sons and two daughters, Mrs. Mellott has received her bachelor's de gree from Park College at Park ville, Mo., which is within easy commuting distance of Kansas City. Mrs. Mellott first tried to expand her education when the Mellotts lived in Washington and while Mellott was deputy com missioner for the Bureau of In ternal Revenues in charge of the alcohol tax unit and later served on the U. S. tax court. She took some work at Wilson Teachers College. Later, after returning to Kan "sas, she completed two years of college French at Kansas City Junior College. She also took a series of University of Kansas extension courses. Mrs. Mellott gathered suffic ient credits through the years so she had to spend only two-years at Park College to get her de gree.

Funds to pay expenses were raised by voluntary contributions from church members. The trip will include visits to Chosen Christian college in Korea, International Christian college in Japan, Silliman college in the Philippines, a visit to Iraq and to Presbyterian mission sta tions on Formosa, in Bangkok and India, American college in Beirut, and shorter stays in Athens, Rome and Berlins The Wests will arrive back in Med ford on September 7. Dr. West states that the most difficult part of the journey was deciding how to divide his time among the many colleges and mission stations which invited him to visit, speak-, and advise personnel in their work. For ex ample, he was requested to stay two weeks in Bangkok, but can stay only four days. Before accepting the Medford pastorate, Dr. and Mrs. West spent 15 years in the mission field, much of that time in the Far East.

U.R) This is the time of year for the housewife to store those warm winter blan kets taking special precautions to keep away moths. According to the New York State College of Home Econo mics, the best way to discourage moths if you're storing blan kets at home is first to give them the fresh air treatment by handing them outdoors for a few hours. Moth balls or crystals are recommended against the de structive pests, as they have a more lasting effect than most sprays or bombs. Wrap the blanket carefully in paper, after sprinkling the crys tals freely in the folds and on the outside, and seaj all the edges with masking tape or staples. This will insure that come next winter, that warm, woolen blanket will be whole and not holey.

More persons live in suburbs where patio or backyard invite outdoor meals. More persons own cars, there is more leisure time and longer vacations, and outdoor cooking equipment is better. 1 It also is more elaborate. A check of New York manufac turers showed you can buy fancy, electrically-powered spits which start with the push of a button for $100. But retailers say the best sellers of the field are the barbecues and braziers cost ing between $12 and $15. Most of the equipment is pur chased by the man of the house, according to Ralph Olswang, head of one large manufacturing concern (Kamkap). Olswang said that "75 per cent of the time, he also uses it. The outdoor cooking ueid is where Fop shines as chef." Olswang said also that the men are "suckers" for all the Young r n ' f,.
