Katharine. Neumann, Mc­ Henry county Extension advi­ ser, explains that fashion uses the term ethnic to define a form or way of dressing de­ rived from the influence of a particular location, tradition, heritage or culture. Items with a hand-crafted-look, based on customs of the different groups, generally characterize the styles. Spring fashions are drawing on ethnic elements from many different sources -- peasants, gypsies, western cowboys, Spanish gauchos and modern Af­ ros. Softness and femininity char­ acterize the look of the peas­ ant girl. Her frock calls for short puffed sleeves and a cinched waist with a full skirt drifting to the knee or the floor. Soft colors and patterns convey this romantic look. Today's gypsies sportscoop- ed-out necklines, sashed waists and billowy, flounced skirts. Bold patterns predominate in warm earthtones. Western and Mediterranean ranch looks depend on intri­ cate seaming, great detail and stitching. You can trace style variations to their origins--for example, fabulous fringe reflects the old American West styles; cropped boleros are reminiscent Jack (Pearl) Cooper and Mrs. Charles (Eva) Sparks. Donations were made to the department Presidents' Special Project, Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge, Pa., Adnto the March of Dimes. f The annual "on guard" color guard show will be held at the East campus of the McHenry high school Sunday, Feb. 28, at 1 p.m. The McHenry unit president, Mrs. Violett, will present the first place award.

Shiny hardware trim and clo­ sures outline shapes. Colors are rich--usually in deep, mu­ ted solids. The Afro influence appears in various shapes and sizes of caftans (long, loose coats), mel- labas (hooded cloaks) and tun­ ics with wide trumpet sleeves, often trimmed in embroidered banding. Primitive wrap skirts and tied-up tops expose the leg or a bared midriff-- jungle style. Fabrics in dark colors with vivid African patterns of strong geometries and intricate curves keep up the jungle beat. Ethnic-influenced costumes go to all lengths, and many are calf and ankle-grazing. But it's the mood that counts rather than the length, concludes Mrs. Neu­ mann.

This group should not let themselves fall into the all too common habit of nibbling biscuits, cakes and other sweets and then not have an appetite for the foods they should eat each day. The worst diets are found among the very poor and the very rich. People with extreme­ ly low incomes and a low level of understanding of nutrition tend to eat too much of the dry, staple foods that are high in starch. In the upper-income groups t h e y t e n d t o e a t t o o m a n y sweets and starchy foods be­ cause they taste good. Chil­ dren in this group always have plenty of spending money and they usually eat the wrong things, too. Good nutrition is most often found in the upper-middle class families where the homemaker is intelligent and interested enough in good nutrition to take pride in providing balanced meals for her family. Aladdin and his lamp would be a welcome sight to many a homemaker after a particular­ ly busy day.
