Sheath Dress
Good Fashion
For Shorties
United Press International
The sheath is a natural
style for shorties, says An
drew Arkin, a manufacturer
who specializes in petite
sizes. Because the sheath will
be an important silhouette for
fall, tie recommends that
women five-feet, four-inches
or under wear both sheath
dresses and coats. Arkin
shows full-length and seven
eighths coats.
Fall evening hats are a boon
to women who usually can't
find a style to wear. Easiest
to wear are monk's caps,
shown in white, black and col
ored satin to match the gown.
The caps are stiffened for
shape.
The "little black dress" has
been replaced by dark stripes,
checks, plaids, sombre pat
terns and provincial prints for
the transitional summer-into-fall
season. Look for burn
ished autumn shades, paisleys,
and vivid Oriental colors.
After all' the shortie .night
gowns and bikini sleepwear,
the "true" nightgown is
back. It looks like granny's
nightie long-sleeved, full
length, ruffled, smocked and
embroidered. In spite of the
old-fashioned details, the
gowns come in brushed, light
weight cotton blended with
nylon, Dacron andor Orion.
Ponchos are popping up all
over the loungewear and
sleepwear scene. Formed as
a circle or square that slips
over the head, they top jump
suits, pajamas, and tights.
They also double as short
robes or bed jackets. Women's
Wear Daily, a trade publica
tion, ' predicts the college
crowd will be wearing pon
chos all day. Styles include
fringed or banded ' geometric
prints, houndstooth patterns,
flowered prints, and solid
colors. Some come with
matching bandanas or slim
pants.

The 4th of July recalls many things
. . . most important of all, the
birth of our nation through the
war of independence. It. is a day
on which we cel
ebrate our free
dom, remember
ing that it was
not won easily
. . . and it still
d e m a nds our
constant united
effort to pre
serve it.
For many of
us, the 4th also
recalls other memories, of picnics,
brass bands, patriotic speeches,
and, of course, fireworks. Now
adays the use of fireworks is more
controlled than it was years ago,
and there are fewer accidents. Bur
some kinds of firecrackers are still
dangerous things in inexperienced
hands.
And speaking of potentially dan
gerous explosives brings up anoth
er subject we've been meaning to
mention, the matter of inflamma
ble home cleaning fluids. Most of
those now sold are gasoline or
cleaners' naphtha. A pint has the
explosive power of a pound of
dynamite. The fumes alone are
dangerous, and even the friction
of rubbing a garment can cause a
static spark that will make an in
flammable fluid explode.
So just as you're careful about
your children playing with fire
works, be careful with cleaning
fluids. Let your dry cleaner clean
your clothes . . . safely! Bring
your garments in for the lowest
cleaning cost ... or call us for
pickup and delivery. BIG Y
