Terras of Sale Cash in hand on the daylif sale,'jlt By CHER IE NICHOLAS An exciting fashion future i$ bl store for satin. Not only do advance dress collections play up satin, but used as trimming and for accessories satin has become a "plaything for designers, .with the result that very clever things are b»ing done with it. Milliners are turning out exceptionally smart hats done in satin, and they add bags to match. The new jackets of quilted satin have quilted hats and bags to match. These are attuned to both day afld evening wear. It's ever so chic to top your new black sheer or lightweight wool slim-silhouetted dress with a jaunty little black quilted satin jacket with which you are supposed to wear a pert cliapeau made of identical quilted satin. " Highly important is the intriguing use being made of black satin in 'connection, with th<* new black wool dresses. Satin serves in a patriotic way in that it helps wool go farther. The satiif is used in endless decorative ways, such as pipings on jacket revers and for waistline insets, gilets and waistcoats or for the entire blouse, for big patch pockets, for contrast sleeves. For the most part it is the black wool dress with generous insets of safari which is holding the center of the stage at the present, but a peep into the future reveals dark afternoon gowns enhanced with yokes done in pastel satins with pink or light blue or white leading. Many of these flattering yokes are handsomely worked with sequins or with jet or handsome applique flowers. The key color thep appears in motifs appliqued en the skirt or in matching pockets, or in some original -manner. There is no end to the effective ways in which satin is carrying on in the new fashions. Most imporffie hupp bows~of~satin that tieat neckline, ^nd wgfstline. Intriguing, too, "Is tne use of satin appliques In the form of butterflies or bowknots. Waistcoats of satin are also new. They fasten with novelty buttons which- supply vivid, color accents or glittering notes. 1 \Black Magic Some raw recruits in England's Home Guard were doing "battle maneuvers." Armed with broomsticks for guns,they were instructed to yell "Bang!" to represent a rifle, and "Bang, bang!" to represent a machine - gun. An additional "Swish!" was a bayonet attack. One stalwart lad met an opponent, put up his broomstick, yelling first "BSng!" then "Bang, bang!" and "Swish!" Finally, he demanded that his victim give the signal that he was killed. "Killed nothing!" was the indignant retort. "Didn't you hear me «*y 'Chug-chug'? I'm a tagkl" DOUBLE TALK • ' - , Clerk--Can I get off to go to the ball game? / Boss--You cann'ot.

And to this contraction of spending ' power another cut through income tax deductions at source and little is left with the wage-earner to expend above absolute necessities. Factory payrolls during the first six months of 1942 averaged 37 per cent above the same six months in 1941. Much depends upon th« scope of the Baruch rubber investigating committee's report going to the White House this week. It is believed that the Built Telescope Wandalee Nickel, 17-year-old graduate of the Glendale, Calif., high school, claims the distinction of being America's youngest astronomer. She built her own telescope. Enthusiasm for black cottons continues. Fashions designed for midseason wear stress continued interest in black shantungs, in black nubby rayon weaves, in black linens, and even black calicoes are on the list of favorites for immediate wear. You can't find anything more practical and attractive for informal party wear than this frock of black eyelet batiste. It will keep you cool and collected right through the heat waves, and it is sophisticated enough for afternoon and informal evening dates, at the same time that it is simple enough for office and street wear. It's the dress you will love to take back to school with you, for it will always be ^eady to call upon whenever you find yourself in a "what-to-wear" quandary. , tig Sleep , Judge--And you call yourself E peace-loving man?

A new trick worth trying! Designers are doing clever things With bright-colored tassels used as trimming. The latest gesture is the lapel ornament of military gold braid from which dangle one or more gay tassels. Metal-less belts ^ill be featured this fall which introduce intriguing and n^vel fastenings such as leather-covered buckles, eyeleted lacings, bow ties and endl^ps oth^r devices*which do away with the use-of metal. The need for warm garments when cool winds begin to blow will be met with charming bonnet and shawl ensembles made of novelty woolknit fabrics. Worn with a simple suit the matching hat and scarflHie shawl in highly colorful versions are presenting an excitingly new outlook for fall.

Gay Renovated Rngs Old grass or fiber rugs may be refinished and decorated with gay painted stripes. Thus refurbished they will give months of additional wear. After washing the rug and letting it dry thoroughly, a csat of white shellac is applied. This stops the suction and preserves the grass fibers. After the shellac has dried, 1. r give the entire rug one or two coats of a light-colored paint that has been well thinned with turpentine. In painting the stripes the best effect is obtained if a stripe of the. ground color is left between lhe/co\. ored stripes. Application win also be easier as the dry areas will prevent the colors from running together. Order your Rubber Stamps at The fl&indealer.
