Of course, come the first October frosts and c.dsp autumn days, we always wish we had goaded the cdltorlul spirits and framo Into doing our shopping earlier. Some of the fall fashion notes do sound intriguing. Did you know that make-up will bo In the brown tones this fall? You shudder at the idea of brown lipstick? Well, so do we, but the fashion writers say that in truth it Is more pleasing than the so-called white lipstick. One expert wrote that the brown is that of the lips of Negroes and Indians, and said that on many women it is exceedingly attractive. Hosiery companies are also advertising that brown will be the best color for full, and such shades as "teakwuod" and "toast of Paris" are advertised lo complement the now "blacked browns" which it is said will be seen In suits, coats and dresses. For tho luau at Rogue Valley Country club Saturday night, many of the women wore the colorful, splashy print frocks which are island-Inspired. They added flowers In their hair and ropes of shell beads as well as the traditional Icis. Mrs. Ray Frisblc and Mrs. Wayne Saffley, who with their hus bands headed the party committee, both wore the pretty Island-type attire, and Mrs. Lloyd Brooks and Mrs. Parker Woods, who poured punch from a huge bowl at "(lie foun tain of youth" both wore grass skirts and Icis, The fountain bubbled away inside of a structure which the committee con structed to look like an out-sized cocoanut, they thought but everyone else said it looked like a little grass hut. At any rate, the committee was highly praised for the clubhouse party decor, a la Hawaii. Many of the women at the Presbyterian tea Tuesday afternoon at the Otto Frohnmayer home were wearing summer pastels and fluffy white hats which gave an Im pression of welcome coolness on a day when the merciless sun and hot wind made actual coolness an almost Impos sibility. Mrs. Frohnmayco, flitting about from kitchen to tea table and trying to greet all the guests, didn't wear pastel but looked particularly becoming. Her summer frock was of thin black cotton and she had added a wide pink leather belt, ropes of pink beads and the fashionable large, looped earrings. Her shimmering pink lipstick was precisely the right shade. Circumstances alter cases, we often hear. And circum stances alter answers too. A UPI story from Chicago today quotes Mrs. Richard Nixon as saying she likes the prospect of being First Lady of the U.S. A few months ago another story about the same subject was written. Mrs. Nixon was asked what she thought about hclng First Lady and she reportedly answered, impulsively, "1 can't Imagine being in the White House It would be too presumptuous." O.S.
