Country look inspires autumn menswear vl!» - • Men's fashions for fall will be more relaxed, more comfortable, and heavily endowed with the ele­ gance of the country gen­ tleman. The "Country Squire Look" is the all-around suit, says the Men's Fash­ ion Association It's tai­ lored with a British accent in tweeds, Glen plaids, gun club checks, as well as gabardine and cavalry twills. Stripes and linear looks m flannels and worsteds will appeal to the more urban-minded man But whether the look is town or country, vests will be an important part of it. They're made to match, to contrast, or even to re­ verse. There's a big trend to trios: suits with an ex^ra pair of slacks in a coor­ dinating color to give sport coat versatility to the suit jacket. Number one choice in sportswear continues to be the "easy" or "casual" suit, in battle jacket, blouson, C.P.O., over-shirt and sa­ fari-style variations. K>ep an eye on sport coats -- they're boldly pat­ terned in greens and cam­ els -- although the ever- popular blazer retains its classic appeal Jeans are still the most important casual slacks in a wide choice of fabrics and mod­ els. Outerwear can be sum­ med up in one word: va­ riety! There's the updated reefer with peaked lapels and flap pockets . . . the classic navy pea coat with oversized collar . . . the raglan-sleeved "steamer coat" In rugged tweed or camel hair, and the wrap­ ped and sash-belted polo coat. It's a big sweater year-- the bigger the better. The big shawl collar, on pull­ overs, cardigans and wraps, is the look for fali. Neater patterns show up on sleeveless sweaters, of­ ten worn with tweed suits and sport jackets In dress shirts, narrow stripes and small, neat checks go well with tweedy clothing Dressier looks include woven satin stripes and subtle tone-on-tone Patterns. Those who like the European-type suit can find shirts cut closer to the body, often with a higher armhole. Sport shirts stress the western motif with fancy yokes, pockets and cuffs. Pattern, from neat over­ all geometries to the wild­ est poster prints, abounds in both wovens and knits. In formalwear, the clas­ sic black dinner jacket is being worn with tartan vests and trousers. More offbeat models, longer in back and sharply cut away in front, come in velvets and brocades Navy blues, deep reds, dark grays, browns and greens are the new color trends. A1NDEALER-F1KDAY.

Timesaving products are in great demand by to­ day's active homemaker. From prepared food to quick-clean home-care products, the emphasis is on efficiency. But instant results don't necessarily make a product efficient It often takes a careful examination to sort out the claims from the real benefits. Just such an examina­ tion is suggested by some silver-care specialists. "In­ stant-clean products have their place in silver care," according to Pat Hagerty, whose family business in northern Indiana has been devoted to the care of sil­ ver since 1895. "We certainly have nothing against these products when properly used. In fact, we make an instant cleaner ourselves, called Fork Clean. But it's im­ portant for the homemak­ er to understand its limit­ ations." Just as the name sug­ gests, Hagerty's dip-and- rinse product is designed specifically for getting at the hard-to-reach areas between fork tines. For general silver cleaning, the Hagerty people suggest a FORD MAC DONALD > A NEW CAR SALE ^grand H?

FULL PRICE '3179 polish with a tarnish pre­ ventive to minimize the time spent cleaning silver. There are other charac­ teristics which, if under­ stood. help make silver cleaning more economical and less work. Since instant cleaners do not leave a protective coating, silver cleaner with this type of product is immediately subject to the oxidation process which causes silver to tar­ nish. Unless used and cleaned daily, the silver will generally have a no­ ticeable tarnish buildup within a week. On the oth­ er hand, a polish with a tarnish preventive, like Silversmiths' Polish, keeps away tarnish for weeks even months. People often comment that instant cleaners have a tendency to leave the silver with a bright, almost tinny, appearance. The formula which is strong enough to strip away tar­ nish in a wink can also remove the shadowy back­ ground in silver that helps to set off the rich tone and sculptured areas of the piece. As far as actual clean­ ing time goes, the differ­ ence between using in­ stant-clean products and washing on a lotion is measured in minutes. With Silversmiths' Polish, for example, the silver is gent­ ly washed, rinsed and buffed dry. This same for­ mula is also available in other forms, including a no-rinse spray. For maximum efficiency in silver care, use the in- stant-clean products to get at difficult areas on flatware, but then wash the piece with a tarnish- preventing polish to pro­ tect and treat the silver. For other silver pieces, use a tarnish-preventing polish once every few weeks or months, as your home and use dictates. It may take a few minutes longer than instant clean­ ing, but you'll do it far less often. And you'll be conditioning your silver at the same time. Now, that's efficient sil­ ver care!

Get 'personal' with your bath, use creative decorating ideas Like any other room in a home, the bath can be decorated to express one's personality. Here's how one bath became both at­ tractive and easy to care for. A built-in bench is covered with American Olean's Redi-Set ceramic tile, which means that the spaces between the tiles are grouted with a special white silicone rubber which will not crack, stain or mildew. The rear tub wall is aglow with Aruba Red crackle-glaze Carib­ bean ceramic tile; the floor is random-set green slate. If your tastes are mod­ ern, the decorating scheme may be for you. The show­ er curtain and towels are a bold geometric print done in vivid red and pur­ ple These colors are ech­ oed in the huge stylized flower painting on the wall The white vinyl pad on the bench invites bask­ ing under the overhead sunlamps. Shiny chrome containers hold tissues and bright dried flowers. Are you a traveler0 Then display those souvenirs of your African safari. Hand­ made mats, baskets and pottery, and native wood carvings would be authen­ tic ethnic touches. A zebra print shower curtain and brown and black towels would contrast with the bright background. Do you love gardening? Then transform the bath into a mini-conservatory. Plants will thrive in the humid atmosphere, espe­ cially if you use Gro- Lights in the overhead fix­ ture. That bench will hold lots of potted plants. Hang a blooming basket from the shower rail, and under­ score your garden theme with posy-printed towels and shower curtain. See, it's easy to individ­ ualize the room with your own eye-catching linens and accessories. The basics are here: good layout and easy-care surfaces (the porcelain fixtures and cer­ amic tile sponge clean with a squirt of liquid clean­ er) . All you add are imag­ ination and details. "No matter where I set my guests, it seems they like my kitchen best," reads an old sampler. And it is true that for genera­ tions, the kitchen has been almost a second parlor in It's a naturalistic look, naturally The "naturalistic" look reportedly will continue to encompass more than the gourmet cooks, health food advocates and eco­ logically concerned citi­ zens. It will also harbor grow­ ing numbers of youth who appreciate the beauty of "planet Earth" as well as those consumers who cherish the safety and tranquility of neutral and natural colors. At the heart of the "nat­ uralistic" look there will be plenty of butcher block, natural finished woods, plants, trellises; real, dried and drawn flowers; and bricks, wood paneling, stones, grasscloth and ani­ mals. Chocolate brown, all greens, rust, terra cotta, orange, bittersweet and beige will be the biggest colors, alone or in com­ binations. FRIGIDAIRE Freezer - Refrigerator Counter, stool arrangement makes a 'livable' kitchen many homes and a spot of much greater warmth and sociability. "The old-fashioned kitchen, with its big stove and flat work surfaces, was also a center for chores other than cooking," pointed out Margot Gun* ther, A I D. "Children did- homework. Father re­ paired utensils and toys. Mother did a score of things." Today, with modern heating, most children have study areas in their bedrooms. Dad has his basement workshop. But Mom still needs a work center in the kitchen for a variety of tasks front menu planning to flower arranging. For such tasks, Miss Gunther designed a modern kitchen and cre­ ated a simple counter- and-stool arrangement which easily can be dupli­ cated. The counter is a sturdy wooden board painted a deep blue matching the center area of the flooring, The shelf above, of which there could be several if desired, is painted tanger­ ine. •'The CounterMate stools by Samsonite have a com­ fortable seat and back, and a height adjustment span of several inches," Miss Gunther says. "The tangerine upholstery is Uniroyal's durable Nauga- hyde vinyl which easily wipes clean." Since the stools can be adjusted in height, the counter also can be used for children's lunches, the designer added. In stock kitchen cup­ boards there may seem to be a limited choice of dec­ orative looks. "However, you can 'cus­ tom-design' your own with just a can of paint and a little Ingenuity," Miss Gun­ ther said. "Molding can be added or appliques of fab­ ric as well as paper. In this instance, I used stencils." Bright, easy to keep clean, this kitchen was planned to make good use of limited space and avoids a sense of crowding. FPCI-170T Frigidaire 17.0 cu.ft.
