Neatness Dominates
Neckwear Fashions
Neatness is the dominating
theme in neckwear for Fall
1960. Even in the relatively
few prints around, such as in
traditional foulards and geo
metries, the accent is on neat
appearance and clean, fresh
design. In the challis types, a
fashion - conscious man can
find neat interpretations of
large paisleys, many "conver
sationals" and interesting Per
sian block patterns.
In stripes there are bright
flashes of color and a revival
of the "smoky" tones.
In the woven category,
there are many textured ef
fects, resulting from interest
ing j a c q u a r d treatments.
There are also handsome un-der-the-knot
accents and cen
ter panel effects.
Color news in the new sea
son neckwear stresses a new
"frosted look," many light
blue and silvery tones, olive
and gold-in combination or
separately-and the new "vin
tage" colors popping up all
over the place in flashes of
purple.
One intriguing note is that
because of the great popular
ity, of tab collar shirts, nar
rower ties - some measuring
only l'2 inches-are getting a
comparatively good play.

The Family Council
Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of a Judse, a psychia
trist, three clergymen, three editors and a women's editor. Kach article
is a summary of an actual case history. The Council reports on
problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and
counselors.
Mark J She started it
now I want a divorce.
Natalie J. Is it too late to
start again?
Mark J. My wife and I are
in our late 40s and have been
married nearly 20 years. We
have two teenage youngsters.
About ten years ago I learn
ed that Natalie had been un
faithful to me with more than
one man. She suggested that
I go ahead and follow her
example as long as we didn't
break the home. She wanted
us to remain together for the
children's sake.
After several years of liv
ing this way, I have at last
found a woman I love very
much. We want to get married
and establish a decent life.
Natalie refuses to grant me
a divorce. But I feel the way
we are living is intolerable.
Natalie J I told Mark the
score in the beginning. I nev
er had the slightest intention
of destroying our home. I
certainly don't want to do it
at this time when our daugh
ter is just 16 and needs a
home.
I realize I have been the
one at. fault in this situation.
I felt that Mark and I were
emotionally unsuited to one
another, but that we had a
right to some happiness. I
would do anything to repair
the damage now.
Is it too late to start again?
We are getting on in years.
The woman Mark claims to
love is 15 years younger than
he is. A marriage would never
work. Our children would be
victims.
The Council: The children
have been victims in this
home for a long time.
Although Natalie has had
some sort of idea of "holding
the home together" the emo
tional rift between husband
and wife has surely not been
unnoticed by the children.
They have undoubtedly been
deeply hurt as a result of the
breach.
What can be done now?
Natalie is no longer justi
fied speaking in the name of
her children. After all, she
was first to destroy their emo
tional security.
Natalie must now speak for
herself. We suspect that she
has at last discovered she real
ly wants her husband for him
helf not purely for the sake
Lightweight Shoe Popular for Fall
There's a new "high-light"
flashing across the men's wear
fashion scene this fall. It's a
higher cut, lightweight leath
er shoe for dress wear, re
ports Shoe Fashion Service
of Leather Industries of
America.
Generally tapered to a finer
point, in keeping with the
slim lines of this year's Ivy
and American Continental
suits, these shoes are availa
ble in dozens of different style
interpretations in smooth,
grained and even brushed
leathers.
An extension of the "more
shoe" look which has recent
ly characterized American
male footwear fashion, these
new styles remain light afoot.
Most often found as a slip-on,
of a home for the children.
Perhaps she is now ready to
give her love fully. She must
then find a way of expressing
it.
We agree with Mark that
life under the present condi
tions is intolerable. We can
only urge him to put an end
to his extramarital attach
ment and make the effort to
find emotional contentment
with a wife who has gained
some wisdom through sad ex
perience. (Copyright 1960, General
Features Corp.) "
they use elastic gores to keep
the shoe snugly on the foot.
They are available in an ex
tended range of blacks,
browns and burnished olive.
The greener tones and the
combinations of black with
brown complement fall's glen
plaids, worsteds and tweeds.
The trend to slimmer sil
houettes in men's shoes con
tinues in three-eyelet dress
bluchers, slip-ons and stylized
wingtips. More pointed toes
arc seen in bluchers and bnl
oxfords this fall. Moccasin
fronts, increasingly popular
this year, also show tapered
influences. In the main,
though, moc-toe shoes remain
fairly rounded or squared off.
In casual shoes, the slip-on
is most often seen. Brushed
and smooth leather shoes are
most popular in casual styles,
although a number of leisure
type shoes are available in
deeply etched grain leathers.
Ankle-high chukkas are a
favored fall shoe for week
end knocking-about. Loden
green, charcoal brown and
slate are among the more
popular colors in c h u k k a
boots.
PICK PLUM
Plum is newsiest fall col
or for girls' fashions. Brassy
green, warm browns, smoky
blues are more news.
Pencil-Slim Toe
Declared Latest
In Fall Fashion
Sharply pointed shoes ta
per to a pencil - slim toe in
this fall's newest styles. The
whittled look in dressy, casu
al and day wear.
Pumps, spectators, flats,
casuals and even moccasin
type leisure wear show sharp
ly pointed toes, reports Shoe
Fashion Service of Leather
Industries of America.
There are varying interpre
tations of the pointed toe,
ranging from the "single"
needle - moderately tapered
to the high-fashion quadru
ple needle or "missile toe"
that measures a bare quarter
of an inch at the toe tip.
Suede, brushed leather,
lustered, smooth and grained
leather shoes are molded to
modified or acute "missile
toes" to go into orbit around
the world of fashion.
While the "outer space" of
of the new shoes is held to a
fine line, new scientific tan
ning methods result in ultra
flexible leather that enables
shoes to make their fashion
point without sacrificing
foot comfort.
Many new pumps feature
cut-out, and cut-out effects
achieved through complemen
tary color underlays. Con
trasting textures make news
in casual shoes with special
detailing on vamps and
shanks.
Many styles have draped,
pleated and perforated fronts
to accent the narrow toe sil
houette. Both texture and color in
terest are evident. Luster lea
ther is seen ,in mauves, pur
ples and magentas for eve
ning wear. Evening pumps
in soft crushed leather fin
ishes appear in antiqued gold
and bronze, to accent elegant
dresses for special occasions.
Brown is in a leading color
position in daytime pumps,
casual moccasins, walking
shoes.
Very high heels write a
new fashion note in pencil
slim beauties that rise to
three and a half inches - a
half-inch higher than the pop
ular "spike" dress heal. Both
casual and suit shoes stand
on mid-heels of stacked leather.

Aristocratic Ideas For Fabrics Seen
Fabrics have aristocratit
ideas for fall. Woolens, silks,
the man-made wonder fibers
and cottons cxcell in quality,
presenting a distinctive, dis
tinguished appearance.
Elegant woolens impress
the eye with dimensional tex
tures and airy weaves, often
enriched by mohair loops or
slubs. Last season's success
with worsted ottoman stimu
lates the liking for ribbed
and corded weaves, with many
herringbones and twills add
ed. Rich-looking gabardines
make a strong showing, espec
ially in smartly tailored dress
es. Knits are everywhere, and
in every texture - brushed,
homespun, lacy, smooth and
languid. Others reflect the
look of fall's handsome rustic
tweeds.
Dressy woolens include peb
bly crepes and sheer, eye
catching textures. Wool prints
gain new importance in dress
es for the festive hours.
An aura of luxury ema
nates from fur blends, lus
trous velours, wool chinchil
las, camels and cashmere.
Gleaming silks for all hours
and brocades and metallics
for evening continue in the
luxurious vein.
Man - made fibers, cottons
ond blends achieve new ele
gance. The wonder fibers for
example, realistically copy
the look of silk and cottons
and blends are styled like
fine quality wools.
Taking note of the fact that
there's a lot of warm weather
in the fall, fashion presents
many more cottons. Comfort
is furthered by the prevalence;
of wash and wear qualities -achieved
with or without syn
thetics blended in.
