Well, in the months ahead, it's "back to reality," as one manufacturer sums up the style outlook; a "safe and sane spring, says another. Modified versions of the high waistline remain in the new clothes collections but the extremes of the empire are wasting away; and every one in the nation's garment center is talking of normal waists, of midriffs fitted, and of belts which define the nat ural body contours. Brims, Brims and Brims . Let's take a look at us fe males from head to heel, as the experts see us in the new year. Hat division-"Brims, brims, brims, in all widths from the very narrow one-inch to four and five inches" said a spokes man for the Millinery Insti tute. New for spring is anoth er "oldie," the young:looking skimmer with its shallow crown and turned-up brim. Still plenty of deep bloused crowns in the spring collec tions. And several milliners feature open crowns. Leading colors for spring will be the clear blues, yellows and vi brant pinks, and a creamy, not quite white. . Hairdos-the fluffy, bou- fant "do" gives way to the smooth, non-tousled coiffure. The influence of the empire period remains' in center parts, in soft wispy bangs and puffiness at the back of the crown. Wigs, in real hair or syntnetic material, will re main popular. Makeup-We go into the "paleface" period, with pale powders and foundations combined with all tones of pink in rouge and lipstick. Phony Eyelashes To Stay Eye makeup will be heavy, even for summer, and those phony eyelashes of plastic will go blinking on through '59. Jewelry-More bright colors than ever, to contrast with the subdued shades which are taking over in apparel, lots of turquoise, hot pinks and coral shades. Necklaces have reached the end of their rope; short necklaces will be more popular in the new year, says the Jewelry Industry Coun cil's fashion division. Short bibs and chokers will be fav orites. .Hemlines-1 ending down a little from last year's knee- displaying height. Most mod els in the manufacturers' showrooms wear skirts just below the knee, but the mak ers are shipping garments to the stores an inch or two in ches longer. Hosiery-A colorful year for gams, with stockings tint ed to coordinate with the rest of milady's costume. Shoes-The pointed toe and skinny heel dominate, but the industry reports the "squared off' toe is sneaking in. How ever, some of these needle heels are so thin they're dub bed the "double needle." Party Dress New York-HTD - Glamorize cold meat or poultry with aypic glaze.

Catholic Sisters Use Old Cards For Art Work Does it break your heart to consider burning or tearing up those lovely Christmas cards you received this sea son? Hold them-two nuns in the art department in a small girls college in California would 'love to have those cards. The cards can be sent to them through the National Housing center, Washington, D. C. The Immaculate Heart col lege has become nationally fa mous for its unique style of art founded and fostered by Sister Magdalen Mary, I.H.M., chairman of the art depart ment, and Sister Mary Corita, I.H.M., professor of art. The two Sisters specialize in use of broken bits of pottery, old jewelry, scraps of cloth, maga zines, and other bric-a-brac to create beautiful mosaics and other works of art. The fame of the art work of this school started when its students created special ban ners for an exhibit celebrat ing the centennial of the American Institute of Archi tects in 1957. Currently the Sisters have a collection of oil paintings showing at the National Hous ing Center, Washington, D.C., where they exhibited a dis play of mosaics a year ago. The two Sisters are just now completing a nation-wide tour to spread the gospel about their theories of art. Stated most simply, they aim to get everyone interested in art-not to become artists, par ticularly, but mainly to de velop an appreciation of good art. Through the Housing Cen ter the Sisters have let it be known that they can use the lovely art that decorates so many Christmas cards. Some will be used for their decora tions, others for special de signs. The Housing Center will act as a collection point and trans-shipper of your old Christmas cards. Mail them to the National Housing Cen ter, 1625 L Street, N.W., Washington 6, D.C. 4 New Furniture Styles Reviewed Chicago (UPD Some wag once proposed that the furni ture industry learn a lesson from automobile manufactur ers, and change styles so radi cally each year that last year's home furnishings would be obsolete.

Institutions For Care of Children Topic of Booklet Washington, D.C. - Twenty ways to measure the effective ness of institutions for the care of children are listed in a new publication of the Chil dren's bureau, entitled "Child Caring Institutions." The checklist is intended to help both institutions and communities determine how well the needs rjf children are being met in the light of changes in family and com munity conditions and re sources during the past half century. The booklet stresses the im portance of close working re lationships between institu tions for the care of children and their communities. Placement in an institution "alone is not necessarily sound treatment," the publica tion points out. "Even though a child must leave his com munity for care, the 'base' for total planning should general ly remain with a community agency familiar with develop ments in the child, the family, and community," the booklet states. "The institution is an interim, not a terminal re source." The publication stat es that no dependent child should be "fatalistically refer red for permanent custodial care, even though he has se vere limitations." "Child Caring Institutions" was written by Martin Gula, consultant on group care in the bureau's Division of Social Services. In a foreward to the booklet, Mrs. Katherine B. Oettinger, bureau chief, stat es that "this publication can serve as a useful background and guide for board members and professional staffs of in stitutions and agencies as well as for community planning groups, legislators, and judg es." The publication may be pur chased from the Superinten dent of Documents, US. Gov ernment Printing Office, for 15 cents a copy. LEFT-OVER TURKEY .
