Not only dresses and play togs but even hats are floral in design. Brilliant red roses, yellow daisies, sapphire blue poppies and delicate pink, white or vio let buds add a fresh fragrance to all costumes. Simplicity is one of summer's theme's. Whether in print, pat terned or solid cotton, dresses feature the fluid line that lends itself so easily to accessories be cause of its uncluttered effect. Halter-styled bareback dresses in broadcloth and pique are de signed to be worn for sunbathing or late day; other dresses are in i lightweight cottons, sleeveless, ' softly tailored at the waistline and very feminine. 1 The ever-popular shirtwaist is back in floral printed cotton, dotted swiss, organdy and cotton satin. Daytime and sportswear clothes take a new turn this sea- ; son. Mobility and comfort are the two considerations which prompt the return of the 30's as seen in "Jamas." These slim tapered pants with low halter j tops come in a variety of bold prints which are new, enlarged j and give a dimensional look to cotton piques or broadcloths. Suburban living calls for new "backyard" fashions which in clude short playdresses worn above the knee with full skirts or bloomers. Perky styling and colorful hues are not limited to sun fash ions, but rainwear also has a bright forecast. Floral prints, colored canvas, pale poplins and cotton sateen have been whipped up into tailored tuxedo rain coats, capes, trenchcoats and short auto coats. The change from casual a.m. clothes into light and airy eve ning ensembles is a glamorous transition. There are flowered chintz frocks with cummerbunds and matching full, flared coats, bell skirted strapless styles with red roses on cotton satin and frothy organdy in mauve with lace in serts and minute tucking.

Pa. IF Many children in the world today have problems because they are part American. These children are among the war orphans of Kor ea, Japan and Okinawa. Pearl Buck, Nobel prize-winning novelist who grew up as a foreigner in China, believes the United States should do some thing aoout these thousands of mixed-blood orphans, both at home and abroad. "After all. they are half-American as well as half-Asian," she said. "The burden of being half-white lies even more heavily on their innocent shoulders than the fact that they are orphans." Adopted Six Nine years ago. Miss Buck founded an adoption agency call ed Welcome House for American born children with mixed blood. She discussed the problem in an interview during an annual spring meeting of foster parents and their children at her farm in New Hope, Pa. Some 18 sets of parents and 30 children attended the semin ar. Pearl Buck, who adopted six children herself, would like to see the United States take re sponsibility of setting up a re lief program abroad to help these Asian-American children. She feels even more strongly about orphans who might be brought over her or adoption. She says there are many fam ilies in the United States that would like to adopt these foreign-born children and bring them up as Americans. Welcome House is" set to handle part of the job. The or ganization has placed some 60 children once considered non adoplable. Mrs. Agnes Miller, executive directors, says she now has sev eral hundred prospective foster parents on her list and only six American-born children of mix ed blood to place. The difference easily could be made up with foreign-born orphans. "But their fate is bound up in controversial immigration legislation now awaiting con gressional action," Miss Buck says. As a citizen, Pearl Buck is pressing for a simple, non-con troversial law which would al low orphaned children of mixed blood to be brought to this coun try regardless of quota, as long as foster parents could be found for them. "Of course," she said, "we can't solve the whole problem of half-American.h alf-Asian chil dren by adoption. But measured in human terms, I believe the life of every child we place is a life saved. "Unless something is done sioon, I firmly believe these children will grow up with feel ings of rebellion toward both East and West, which will make them easy pawns of Commun-j ism." 1 SPECIAL Washer & Dryer Sale DRYER Hi-Speed Drying 5 Settings BEST BUY EVER!
