The side-swept look is at its very best in this dress of black rayon crepe. The closing is outlined by a narrow band with transparent com- position buttons. The draping all radiates from this band, which forms a wrap around skirt with fulness towards the but- ton-side. Here's a dress that is kind to any figure and especially flattering to the slender type. Nice for the bright lights of late after- noo. ° Fashions of The Day By Jean Walsh There is a subtle reminder in this crisp autumn weather that winter will be here before we expect it. Every year it seems to creep up on us, and the first fall of snow finds us scurrying to dig out our furs and goloshes, However, before the snow comes, we should take a look at what we have left from last year, and see what we might add. If you need a fall coat, you will | be glad to hear that long-haired (and much warmer) furs are back 'n style. Close fitting high collars of fox, skunk, wolf and coon are shown everywhere. Fur often makes a band on the bottom of the coat, too, or big shaggy pockets. For the smoother furs, beaver or {ts counterpart, a sheared sheep, dyed to a beaver color, is popular. Coats have that side-draped line which 1s also shown | in the fall dresses. If your face is young, your fall hat will probably be pushed back from your forehead, revealing piled up curls, or the new pompador line. Hats are much bigger, and given to sweeping flares. The Berets, similar to those worn by the Queen when she visited Canada, are seen every- where, worn pulled over to one side, and big-brimmed. If you feel bet- | right .. . but if the jar got low . . . ter in a hat which you can pull | mother was harrassed and busy, and down over your eyes, don't despair Many of them are shown, and they. are worn over the forehead rather than over one eye this year. Accessories are gay, and practical Knitted angora and wool mitts will go from school or shopping through the day and through the whole scale of color to evenings, when they blos- som out in white. Brilliant red, kelly green, gold, and the new winter blue . + + & duller-than-airforce shade... are bright accents in bags and hats. Mrs. K. B..D,, Hebron, N.S, has a black winter coat, with a loose back, and a wolf collar. She wore gray with it last year. She wants a change of accessories, and wants to know if this coat will be good this year, or how she could change it. She is 50 years old, has blue eyes | and gray hair. This style is perfectly good. I | wouldn't change it at all, except per- haps to shorten it. With your color- ing, you could wear the new winter blue in a hat and bag, and get black gloves and shoes. For the dress you mention, get a rich porewine shade in a sheer wool or crepe , , , lovely with blue. L I Miss B.K., Montreal, is just start- ing her first job, and has only about $30.00 to spend on her winter ward- robe. She is 19 and is very dark, with brown eyes. A brown wool skirt, with a rust wool sweater set would be smart for the office. You could get a brown crepe blouse to wear with a wide gold suede belt when you wanted a change. A deep green crepe or fine wool dress, high neck, bell sleeves, shirred skirt could be worn with your brown accessories, with a collar fo rthe office and a necklace for dates. Get a brown hart, not too dressy, and brown kid pumps. For evenings, a ruby red vel vetgen jacket could be worn over a black crepe skirt, and could also Le worn with the brown wool skirt. * + » Miss D. B. is going to be married, and wants to know what dress she could get for her wedding gown .. . a short dress. She is 19, has blue eyes and brown hair. 8he has to wear It later for afternoons. A deep blue crepe, made with a round neck, and short sleeves, with a tucked bodice and a side-draped skirt could be worn with a blue off- the-face hat to match and wine ac- cessories. "BARNAM HOUSE" " DECORATOR SPEAKS TO OSHAWA GROUP The craze of Canadians for "im- ports" in Interior decoration is quickly being superseded by a grow. ing appreciation for Canadian- made products, Freda James of To. ronto told an interested group of women at Simcoe Street United Church on Friday. Miss James, who came through the Invitation of one of the W.A. groups of the church, was the interior decorator for the recently-renovated Barnum House at Grafton and is herself a member of the Ontario Historical Society which undertook the task With her assistant, Miss Veitch, the designer talked to the women and showed them many samples of the beautiful work done right In this country by Canadian people. Her display included tables, chairs, lamps, pewter, potteries, rugs, wood carvings and draperies. The American people, the speak- er told her audience, have been quicker in the uptake than the Ca- nadians. American designers come over to Cape Breton where the beat rugs are made and actually live 'there waiting for the fulfillment of their orders. 'The native people work on the land and fashion these lovely floor coverings as a sideline. If the land keeps them busy longer than usual the rug-making art suf- fars and the buyers must be pati- ent until their work can be finish ed. Miss James emphasized that it is no longer necessary to buy ofiental rugs to furnish a beautiful home; that Barnum House, the finest house in the country, has 'ts floors covered wiln local-made rugs. In fact, she said, it 8 becoming in- creasingly difficult to find ofiehtals which harmonized with modern decoration and furnishings. Her samples of draperies were outstanding in interest and beauty. Among them were bolts of satin damask which fairly took the breath away. Then, too, there were wool pieces of gossamer {fineness and sturdy tweeds. The rugs in- cluded hooked ones and the revived | rag carpets. In her collection were included 2ome fine wood carvinge salvaged from an old church in | ties, Quebec where they had been dis- carded as junk. The decorator urged her listeners to keep their eyes open for the priceless treasures which are here if they but look for them. Arrange- ments are being made for a party | of thirty peonle to visit Barnum | House shortly. RECIPE EXCHANGE! By "The Housewife" Remember the cookie jar? Tt | might have been a fat, brown-glazed | bean pot, with a cover, a scarred tin box which once housed some- | one's biscuits. Or, it might have been | a shiny new enamel tin with "Coo';ie | Jar" in red letters on it. Whatever | it was, it was the secret heart of the kitchen . .. a barometer of | mother's feelings. If the jar was kept filled . . . everything was al- little boys and girls felt a bit for- lorn. The Cookie Jar still has {its enthusiasts, and a few of them have sent us their pet recipes for keeping it filled.

O'Neill spoke to the parents, on the alms of education, Chief among | these, he considered adaptability. BLspecially in this time of world- | stirring events, the greatest asset is the ability to adapt oneself to changing conditions. Sincere appli cation to work, and consideration | others are the chief factors towards | this adaptability which can bring | happiness by overcoming difficul- At the business meeting conduct- ed by the president, Mrs. A. E Shaw, the question of medical in- spection in the Collegiate was dis- cussed, To deal with this, a com- mittee, composed of Mrs. U. Jones, D. CO.

A social hour in which the par- ents were enabled to meet the staff, ended the evening. | NECKWEAR IS ELEGANT THIS AUTUMN Neck details on the couture fash- ions presented by Bergdorf Good- man, Bonwit Teller, Saks Fifth Avenue, Milgrim, Jay Thorpe, and other high fashion houses present a new elegance to this fall's cos- tumes. Margot Kops, top-flight designer, uses a sailor collar of exquisite corded Venise lace as the only trimming for a simple black after- noon dress; another sailor collar of a finer Venise studded with rhinestones on a dinner dress. Charles Armour, clever American designer, is presenting three im- portant black afternoon dresses with set-in-yokes of fine lace, the Ince designs traced with beads. One square shaned Yoke is beige lace | trimmed with gold and blue beads. Another is an oval yoke of Alencon lace, lovely with traceries of pale blue beads. The third ie a deep round yoke of gold and pink beads on flash colored lace, 80 watch for beautifully beaded separate yokes to dress up basic frocks. JET TRIMMING Jet, dominating all the collections ny stunning trim, is appearing on | little round collars ad on revers to AMONG THE LATEST STYLES | That really EXPENSIVE look is | achieved only through expertly | treated simplicity. Pattern 4575 is | an outstanding example of this rule | --a clever creation by Anne Adams. It's cut most simply, but with be- coming soft lines given by curved yokes and a deep V-neck. The spot- light of interest plays on that well. shaped center panel with its subtle, slimming effect on your figure. (You may give it dramatic empha- sis by making it in contrast.' Side- front waist seams result in soft bodice fit, 2 neat waistline and ex- tra action-freedom in the slim skirt. Pattern 4575 is available in mise. 36, 38, 40, 42, 44 and 46. Size 16 takes 3% yards 39 inch fabric. Send TWENTY CENTS in coin to The Oshawa Daily Times to ob- tain this pattern. es' and women's sizes 16, 18, 20, 34, | be worn with V-neck dresses. Some are all-over jet beads or sequins; on others jet forms delicate pat- ferns on pink, beige or white ben- galine. Any one of these smart col- lars Is a quick change to add the 1040 touch to an afternoon or din- ner dress. Gold beads on brown or beige lace or on black Venise collars are high fashion accessories for brown dresses, One lovely real handrun Alencon collar is beige with tiny gold beads tracihg the dainty lace pattern. Another smart small revers is black Venise with the flower pat- tern of the lace studded with tiny gold beads. , Gold, silver and bronze lame col- lars have also brought an elegant touch to fall fazhjors. A bronze lame sailor collar on a brown crepe afternoon dress designed by Margot Kops is very effective and will be particularly good with the newly Important bronze kid shoes. Jewel Studded For sheer delicacy and beauty there are pearl and rhinestones studded yokes, plastrons, and col- lars. These too are made of Venise or Alencon laces and follow the Jeweled trend this season. The Polish peasant inspiration of the Bonwit Teller collection has in- troduced a gay new note in neck- wear. Brightly colored wool em- broideries are set into little beige collars of fine Venise lace. Besides these dress-up neckwear fashions there is a new tailored dickey that is marvellous to wear with suits or under-sweaters. It is another "borrowed from the men Idea" and a most practical one, Dickles with various types of collars are made with the "Wrinkle Free" feature used in men's shirts. By a £pecial process the fibres of the collar gre fused to give them a per. manently starched finish. They re- quire no starching, always retaining their original finish. They're parti- cularly wonderful for school and college girls for that flattering touch of white under their sweaters --and a life-saver in the laundry, as what college girl ever has starch handy? These dickies come in fine pique or sharkskin. Electric broilers may be cleaned easily inside and out if wiped with a damp clot before they are entirely cool. Then dry thoroughly with another soft cloth. SIMCOE C.G.L.T. | SNOWDROPS The Snowdrops group of Simcoe Street United Chureh's C.QG.LT. opened with g worship service.

Therefore, with permission from Mrs. Jeannette Lebens of Chicago, I am quoting from her first letter to me. "Your article in today's paper in- terested me very much and I can appreciate just how that mother feels because 1 have three children of my own. "Children weren't meant to be little angels and can't be expected to be good with nothing to do. I have many problems, too, and most are with my son six years old, but I took my cue from his first grade teacher who was having a terrible time with him. I went over to the school a couple of times and told her I was glad if she could do anything to make him hehave. , . . Finally his teacher hit on a plan. She has him help her with a lot of things. He even sweeps up the floor every day and he has to go down on his knees to do it, but he doesn't mind. She says he is gn different boy since she has him as her "helper". Improved Disposition "So I let him do a lot of things around the house and give him a lot of praise. He is kinder to his two smaller sisters since then and asks them to heln him when he's picking up, thereby training them in a good habit with no interfer- ence from me. He dries dishes af- ter supper only; washes hands and | face of his baby sisters now and then, takes out the garbage and numerous other things. Even helped clean wall paver the other day, saving us the effort of stoop- ing to do the bottom, Of course, it 'back to their nroper place. | lakes a few extra minutes to teach him the proper way but, once learn. ed, it saves me many more precious moments, , , , on "My three-year-old can get ind a lot of mischief too, put I try #4 forestall it by letting her help e. You may wonder what a thrée year old can do, but it's really rg= markable.

I read ai your articles even about teen age children . . and 1 read a great deal to them, often to all of them together." THE BUDGETEER By Lois Moore Mary went upstairs to her room, and slammed the door. Her mother, going up a few minutes later, heard her crying as though her heart would break. Mary wanted a new bedroom. Her room faced the north, and had sloping ceilings and dark flowered paper. The woodwork was a dingy brown, the floor painted the same shade, with twin rag rugs, and the washstand was golden oak. Mary lived on a farm, and just then there was no money for new bedrooms . . . probably six or seven dollars her mother had saved would be all she could have. But Mary was smart! She lay back and looked at the room and then she went to work. The patchwork quilt in the trunk in the attic was mauve and yellow and she planned her room around that. The dark wallpaper came off, by scrubbing with warm water and a | brush, and the plaster beneath was washed thoroughly. Then Mary painted the stained white walls a soft golden yellow with the new washable water paint. She bought it in bulk and mixed it herself. The woodwork she scraped with sand- paper, and painted a deeper yellow, even to the cupboard door. The ceil- ing was hard, but she got her broth- er to help, and managed a fairly good job. "Anyway," said our Mary | "who is going to look at the ceiling!" By this time there wasn't much money left, and she still had to have | curtains. The cheapest material a: the store was cheesecloth, and she | found she could get a good deal for about a dollar. Two packages of mauve dye, and she had full lilac- colored drapes at the window, hang- ing right to the floor. She also made a dressing-table skirt for the wash- stand, and covered the top with dull-finished mauve oil-cloth. Big scallops of the ollcloth made a finisn around the top of the washstand, over the fullskirt, which was tacked on. Mary's father, proud of her clever fingers, made a wooden val- ance for the window, which she also covered with mauve oilcloth, stick- ing it firmly with heavy glue. The dresser, a golden oak affair, will have to wait till next month, when Mary will paint it mauve, and paste flowers on it she cut from an old wallpaper sample book. And all for $7.00! * + » Mrs. T. C., White Rock, B.C, has two very good ideas for the Budget- eer's Club, After knitting sweaters or making jackets for boys and girls, instead of knitting the cuffs, she uses the tops of men's cashmerz socks which, when folded down and sewn to the sleeves, makes a tight- fitting cuff which wears much bet- ter than the knitted ones. Also, when the sleeves of sweaters begin to wear out from elbow to cuff, she NOTICE All Patterns in COMMUNITY CHINA AND CRYSTAL are now discontinued. While our present stock lasts we will be able to supply you. Act now. BASSETT'S JEWELLERS rips the sleeves out and sews them into the opposite armhole, thus pute ting the worn part to the inside. LE EE Mrs. A. K. Bracebridge, Ont., asks for help in making mittens out of men's socks. The tops of the socks are good but heel and toes are gone The easiest way would be to cut Lhe sock off just above the heel and shape to the fingers, leaving the top of the sock for the cuff. Then, match the cuff with wool, knit a thumb by hand, and sew it in af the side, SOCIAL NOTICES Engagement, Marriage and Receiving Notices, 50¢ Results of Draws, 10c a line.
