a three quarter coat.

Th ABC's of. silhouette
themes for fall: A-the loose,
soft, low-waisted outline echo
ing the 1930's; B the long,
tall, semi-f i 1 1 e d silhouette,
sometimes, a straight tube
sometimes with an overblouse,
tunic, or tiered skirt to break
the line; C the combination
cf molded bodice and full
skirt, the bodice enlongated
and the skirt often side
widened. Fashion has a side slant for
fall one-sided drapes, side
slanting folds, side fastenings
on coats and dresses, side
widened evening skirts, side-to-side
necklines, sideward
plunge to daring evening
necklines.

A new holt-adjusting waist
band for slacks or shorts
breathes and moves with the
wearer. The inventor of the
waistband, Jack Winter, said
it's never too loose nor too
tight and will not ride up or
down. It hugs the waist and
secures tuck-in shirts.
The car coat's gone minky
To protect the casual mink
coat from wear and tear in
tiie driver's seat, a deep vent
in the back unbuttons so the
coat can be picked up and
brought around the lap.
The popular dinner suit
takes second place to the coat
and dress costumes for fall.
Don't assume you can store
your furs safely in an air-conditioned
home. Experts say
that furs require technical i
cold storage service when
they are not being worn.

GirlsTown
Run in Italy
Rome - (Uril - Boys Town,
the self-governing home of
wayward and homeless chil
dren, has become a symbol of
courage and help for the
youngsters of this country.
But few people know there
also is a Girls Town, develop
ed by the same Catholic
priest who started and still
runs Boys Town.
The bustling Irish priest,
Msgr. John Patrick Carroll
Abbing, said that during his
tours to raise funds for Boys
Town, the question that both
ered him the most was: "What
about the girls?"
lie had worked 13 years to
build the boys' institution not
far from Rome.
When he decided to found
Girls Town, Msgr. Carroll
Abbing asked Mother Mary
Dominic Ramaccioli, an Amer
ican nun, to help him with
the job.
The well-tailored woman
with gray hair - nicknamed
"the nun in tweeds" - began
tile project with him in 1955.
They chose for the site a
tiny hamlet called Borgata
Ottavia. near Rome. They
built a dorniitory-schoolhouse
and later added a modern
chapel.
In the autumn of 1957 the
first group of girls-16 of them
-were welcomed from insti
tutions nil over Italy.
These girls and the others
who will follow thorn-stay at
the institution for five years.
They arc trained to support
themselves, to become gov
ernesses, social workers, chil
dren's counselors and for
other jobs.
Mother Mary works an 18
hour day to help her "chil
dren." The worst part of her
work, she said, is going
around to all the luncheons,
teas and receptions in Rome
to raise funds to keep things
going.
She has received special
permission from the Vatican
to wear secular clothes. Most
of her outfits are tweedy and
homemade.. But she wears no
lipstick or jewelry, even on
her fund-raising expeditions.
