Cotton Car Coats
Now Top Fashion
Designers are showing high
fashion car coats in newsy sil
houettes and in a great variety
of cotton weaves, textures and
prints, reports the National Cot
ton council.
Printed cottons, corduroys,
poplins and twills are featured
in short, regular and even seven
eighth length coats. All are wa
ter repellent. Colors include na
tural, white, platinum, khaki,
loden green and red.
Brilliant plaid corduroy is
used for one eye-catching car
coat which boasts its own match
ing boy's cap. A bright red cot
ton print is selected by one de
signer for a short coat which he
lines in quilted poplin and shows
with a ikirt or olive drab cotton
twill pants.
Black and white, a favorite
color scheme in the fall fashion
picture, is used to make a
streamlined coat in white pop
lin set off with a head scarf in
black and white printed cotton.
The same print is used to line
the coat in quilted version for
cozy warmth. Pennsylvania
Dutch designs are embroidered
in black on white poplin to
make another car coat in this
smart color scheme.
For the outdoor enthusiast
who has a bit of the siren in her
make-up, there is the car coat
made in velveteen, printed with
a leopard pattern.

Church World Service Appeals
For Clothing Needed Overseas
The appeal for warm used
clothing for overseas relief is
meeting with a good response in
the Rogue valley, according to
officials at the state office of the
Council of Churches. Portland.
The drive is sponsored by Church
World Service.
It is interesting to note that
among the larger churches assist
ing in this work. First Presbyter
ian church, of Medford, has col
lected well over a thousand
pounds of clothing and bedding.
Other churches also are report
ing success in this clothing drive.
Time for collecting has' been
extended to October 10 for pick
up by van which is to be sent
from Modesto, Calif. Smaller
churches not having many boxes
of clothing are asked to take
these to First Methodist church
or to First Presbyterian church
for pickup since it is desired to
have as few clothing depots as
possible in order to cooperate
fully with the free van service.
All interested persons are in
vited to assist in the drive which
is perhaps more needful this year
than in some time past for the
storehouses in the bay area de
pleted of materials for distribu
tion overseas, it is stated.
Instructions for packing are as
follows: Place articles in cartons
of any size, tie well with strong
cord and address to Church
World Service Center, 1010
Ninth street, Modesto, Calif.
Churches are asked to assist in
shipping charges overseas which
amounts to eight cents per
pound. Names of churches may
be written on boxes sent. For
further possible needed instruc
tions call 2-2914. Amounts for
shipping expenses may be left at
the Presbyterian church or the
Methodist church and made out
to Church World Service, in care
of Mark A. Talney.
Those directing the drive urge
that all articles be prepared and
at one of the depots not later than
October 10.
