The 'Narrow, Long Look7 Continues At Main Paris Designers Showings By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Paris -IUPII- The "narrow, long look" still reign king in Paris, bul revolutionists have lipped in with big shoulders, wider sleeves and longer suit jackets during the current fall-winter fashion shows. Four fashion houses still have not shown their wares to the press and buyers con gregated in the crowded sa lons from all over the world Chanel, Yves St. Laurent, Gl- venchy and Balcnclaga will exhibit this week and may swap the trend, v But to date most of the de signers who more or less dic tate what women wear have voted to keep the narrow line In power, although shoulders and sleeves have expanded in a few houses and gone down right military at the house of Christian Dior. The head of one New York department "lore summed up the shows: "Fashion is in a italic period and has been for . several seasons. There isn't much change, possibly be cause women like the way they look-short skirts and un fitted short jackets are fem inine and young. "But next season they may be ready tor more change."

Evening Rowns: Floor Home Furnishing Tips For Brides Are Listed By MARGERY McELHENY Chicago -UPfr- A check of department store wedding spe cialists indicates an early in law problem - the bride should expect her choice of home furnishings to clash with those her mother or mother-in-law would choose. "The majority ' of young brides prefer tailored, modern designs that have plain, ele gant patterns," said Mrs. Elaine Kraiss of Scars Roe buck and company, in speak ing of table setting prefer ences. "But their mothers fa vor floral patterns and more ornate designs." One of the most popular styles in china is a plain white dish with a platinum rim, said one expert. Another consultant said a Mrs. Dewey Jeffrey Entertains Circle Gold Hill-Mrs. Dewev V. Jeffrey was hostess for the July session of the Golden Circle Women's group of Oold Hill Christian church at her home on Fifth avenue. During the meeting mem bers voted to help support Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Davis, Wycliffe translators and mis sionaries to New Guinea in October. The couple have two' youngsters. The group is the sponsor- ng body in the church that sponsored the recent Vaca tion Bible school for children n the Gold Hill area. It was combined effort with As sembly of God and Com. munily Methodist churches. the next meeting of the circle will be held at the home of Mrs. Ed Marsh Wed nesday, August 14, at 7:30 p.m. length. Flowing chiffons, nar row crepes, usual bodices em broidered with jewels. Match ing jackets. Lace and ruffles at Dior.

Bells: Leather belts at na tural waistline back on some dresses. Also many half-bells in back, some in front. Many beltlcss dresses. Novelties: Plaid knickers, greatcoats nearly to the ankles worn over short skirls, vests under suit jackets. Fabrics and colors: Manv white jersey and white crepe cocktail dersscs. Dark green big new color. Dark green vel vet blouses wllh black and dark gray suits. Gray flannel shealh dresses and suits. Tweeds, even in purple, pink and yellow. Soft yellow and orange wool suits. Orange coats. Chalky, pastel tweeds and big checks at Dior. tar or simple wheat pattern was a popular choice in silver ware. Style Differences The style differences of the two generations also was ex plained by Elizabeth Cook, manager of the wedding gift service, Carson Pine Scott and company. "If the bride-to-be disagrees with her mother on a choice of patterns, the girl usually gels what she wants, said Miss Cook. "Some of them don't agree with their fiance's choice. If he wants something moaern, they usually compro' mlse." The consultants advised brides to register their fur nishings choices and color schemes with wedding gift de partments in various stores. They cautioned, however, against duplication of lists. "Register china and silver selections at one store, elec trical appliances, cooking ware and linen at another," advised one consultant. "This makes it easier for guests to select gifts that you want and need, instead of something you'll put in the attic and use only when the guest vis its." Should Register ' Brides should register not only for items they will need immediately but for those that will be used in the future, said Mrs. Kraiss. "I usually suggest purchas ing a 12-place setting of china rather than an 8-place set ting," she said, "because it's more economical in the long run." She said most brides choose the smaller set "but their mothers and aunts usually buy the larger assortment." Larger sets contain all the needed accessory pieces usu ally lacking in the smaller sets "and because of break age, it's better to have the additional pieces from the be ginning because they are ex pensive to buy separately," she said. MANOR-ISMS . By ETHELYN EVANS Talent Visitor Talent-Mf. and Mrs. B. J, Morley were overnight guests In the home of his sister, Mrs. Frank Christian, on their way home to Burbank. Calif, They had been to British Co lumbia, Canada, where they visited Mr. Morley's mother and the Morley's daughter and family. Iowa Family Visits Family In Talent Talent-Mr. and Mrs. Har old Hartman and son, Albia, Iowa, were recent visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lester Davis. Mrs. Hartman is Mrs. Davis' sister. Manor members, as usual, are interested in and ready to help promote and estab lish our first valley music fes tival - Peter Britt Music Fes tival in Jacksonville, August ll-to-24. These twilight (4 p.m.) and starlight 18 p.m.) concerts will complement the Oregon Shakespearean festi val in Ashland. Held in t h e beautiful grove of the Britt Gardens, with historic Jack sonville as a background, this festival should, and I feel sure will, grow and grow into an other permanent, enjoyable and valuable cultural asset of the valley and state. T h i i year, of course, is the diffi cul and costly "first season," but some of the hard work and money spent now will be for permanent use. The festival is in the capa ble hands of a most devoted and energetic committee of sincere, civic - minded valley people. We have an interest ing photograph - poster in our lobby of Bert Pree, president, E. O. Graham, first vice presi dent; Ben Trowbridge, second vice president, Lewis Tiger, secretary; Virginia Lusk, board member, and William Mansfield, associate attorney. This was taken in the Peter Britt room of the Jacksonville Museum with the old camera and old portrait-photos taken by him in the background. Members of this committee have a well defined, long-term vision of this festival rapidly equaling the Carmel and oth er well established festivals and, eventually, who knows? it might be another "Tangle wood." Why not? Our valley is facing Ihe same enormous increase in population faced by all west ern states. Besides, we are already on the cultural map with our nationally and inter nationally known Shakespear ean festival. Enthusiastic members of our Manor committee for Ihe Britt festival, Mrs. C. C. Col lins. Mrs. C. Rease Braley. O. M. Anderson and yours tru ly are working hard to sup ply information, tickets and arrange for transportation. The Manor administration is interested and willing to schedule a full bus load to the concert"! for any who need such service. The general com mittee has arranged for ample parking for private cars; and they are providing a large number of benches, but It is suggested that we take ilong rugs, cushions and folding chairs it possible. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Moore immeriiale ly took season tickets, head ing the list of Manor mem bers who plan to attend. The Manor committee, of course, led off by all taking patron tickets. Many of us will attend the twilight, 4 p.m., concerts as that will make it possible for us to attend one of the Shakespearean plays the same evening. The after noon concerts will undoubt edly attract visitors who are in the valley for the four plays, and we hope they will go early for the music and have time to tour old Jack sonville and visit the Museum. This week I took a short but rewarding trip to Weft minster Presbyterian church property, set in a beautiful grove of towering oaks at 2000 Oakwood drive. I went to see a simulated siainea glass window by our retired architect, Hiram Salisbury. Like a similar but smaller window he made for our Man or auditorium, this window creates a diffused cathedral atmosphere in the exception ally well planned parish hall which is being used for all services now, pending the erection of the main church edifice. Another Manor mem ber, Mrs. C. C. Collins, and Mr. Salisbury teamed up on this worthy idea - Mr. Salis bury contributing his creative imagination and technical skill in designing and executing the window. It is in the end of the building opposite the very effective plain, dark cross at back of the platform now be ing used as the pulpit. Mr. Salisbury has used the companion cross in the end window as background and has designed an intricate sun burst of jewel toned color3. On plain, firm plastic he has glued his free hand patterns of thin colorful plastic. Even the manner in which he used the unsmoothed glue helps to create the stained - glass ap pearance and feeling. It is lovely and worth a special trip or, better yet, attending a service to see. Also, this project exemplifies the spirit of the ecumenical movement for united Christian work since Mr. Salisbury is a de voted, life long Episcopalian Potluck Dinner Held by Group mill accident a tew weeki ago, made his appearance in a wheel chair to attend the Yreka - Approximately 30 members and guests of the Pythian Sisters and Knights of Pythias held a potluck din ner in the patio of the Ernest Johnson home at 610 Lane street, Yreka. The Hawaiian theme was used in the garden and table decorations. Several wore Ha waiian dresses with flowers in their hair. Out of town guests of the M. A. Lewis family were Mrs. Margaret Lewis, sister-in-law of Mr. Lewis and Mr. and Mrs. B. L. Hunter, all of Medford. Chester Barnett, who is still a patient at the Siskiyou county hospital following a dinner. The next meeting will be August 14 and Mrs. James Robinson is chairman. Lions Auxiliary To Hold Meeting Prospect - Prospect Lady Lions auxiliary will hold a board meeting at the Prospect Public park Wednesday, July 31.

Son Here Derby Frank (Jerry) Hunt, Woodside, Calif., was a recent guest in the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Hunt, Box 130-A Butte Falls highway, Eagle Point.
