w Snow Togs C&y With Color and Chic CHER1E NICHOLAS HO, HO, ho I Who wouldn't go, up on the hill top fur, fur away? Come on up, the snow's line. Let's go 1 Whether we be snow-furing fans or among those who elect to Join the style parade under sunny skies "where sum mer upends the winter," the "what-to wear" problem is ever with us. So let's spend a few moments in confer ence with Dame Fashion and see what she has to say upon the subject. To begin with those who sknte and ski and toboggan nnd frolic in the snow are expected to follow as metic ulous a style program as does milady who promenades along sun warmed beaches or dances to the rythmic sway of waving palms under tropic starry skies. A most Important lesson which fash ion teaches is the value of color ? flam boyant, audacious color, If you please. A formula for color which the smart set Is adopting enthusiastically for winter sports outfits is gray for the basic color with accessories In a riot of brilliant greens, blues, reds and or ange tones. Over n swanky gray cos tume consisting of trousers in dark gray with a tuck-lo sweater in lighter tone, the neckbnnd and wristbands knitted In vivid stripes, she who skates wears a patchwork suede Jacket, In lumberjack fashion, which startles the eye with Its vivid coloring, being formed of swatches of blue, green, rod nnd yellow suede sewed together In crnjiy-qullt fashion, with enough gray suede worked in to relate It to the gray of the sweater and trousers with which It Is worn. It does not look Its high color In the picture, but if the skirt-and- Jacket suit DINNER JACKETS B? CIIKKIK NICHOLAS One sleeveless decollete gown with a nock of cunning dinner Jackets equals a whole wnrdrohe of evening clothe*. Which ? goen to show how practical fashion In growing during these days when economy In correct form wher ever we mny go. The mode) pictured In In black and white velvet, Gold or sil ver-spangled velvet would mnke up very prettily nftor this fashion. The Hat of flattering dinner Jacketa' In. eludes some very dnlnty fantasies made of choice lace either black or In ecrn or flesh tints. Worn over hlack velvet or crepe dresses they transform the formal gown Into a costume tuned to the semi-formal dine or dance hour. Tht flair for aparkle la reflected In the daasltng, little capetets and Jackets which are sequin covered.

'-J ' 1 ' _ < worn by the young woman playing Ice hookey in the picture could be seen lu the original it vtfould certainly qual ify as being pienly colorful. The trim ly buttoned and belted Jacket is of brlgjit red corduroy. It is lined with natural chamois. The skirt is of rich green suede leather. Its buttoned down the-front fastening Is the last word for sportswear. Included among timely suggestions for conservatively Binart snow suits are types such as the model shown to the right in the picture. It is made of navy gabardine which is so general ly worn, it hns become almost o tra dition in the sports realm. Variety is afforded by the plaid lining which is woven in flaming colors. The commendable thing about mod ern winter sports togs is that no mat tei how pictorial they may be they never sacrifice the practical. The sportswoman who knows her fashions never thinks of wearing a Jacket or blouse which does not fasten with a metal slide or some such ar rangement. That is, If she be not In trigued with some other equnlly as dependable a gadget such as, for In stance, the new fastening created by Schlaparelll which slips small wooden knobs through leather thongs. A row o' 'em is warranted to "doll up" any ski or skate suit to the snow queen's taste. Howsoever to do the trick with out ostentation you will please to note the pullover blouse pictured above in the group, which fnstens with a metal slide at the back of the neck. The collar and gloves are striped in pale blue and brown. 1932. Western Newppnper UnVon. GOLD AND SILVER SLIPPERS RETURN The fashion tip given by one of the better shoe houses Is to dye the heels nnd bows of an opera pump to match the gown or the accessories. This same house Is showing a slipper that can almost be said to embody every color of the rnlnhow In a vivid pattern. Velvet slippers are exceedingly smart. Mnny of them have straps and Intricate trimmings of gold or silver kldskin. Some have both. Returned to favor are kldskin gold and silver slippers. A new note Is a combine tlon of the gold and silver. The brocades are very smart. They are trimmed with the gold or silver kldskin. Some houses are showing a trim of opaque kldskin. There are satin and moire combinations to be had nnd crepe slippers to be dyed. One-Sleeved Gown? Are Latest Freak in Paris Two sleeves do not make a dress. Paris couturiers are striving to per suade their clients that one Is quite sufllclent However bizarre may be your men tal picture of a one-sleeved gown, In reality the creation Is sometimes effec tive.

HUGE PROJECTS ARE COMPLETED IN 1932 Engineers Push Conquest of Natural Forces.^ Washington. ? How man ^ppmed ahead on many fronts In his conquest of natural forces during 1032 Is shown in a bulletin from the National Geo graphic society, outlining some of the outstanding engineering achievements of the year. Despite financial difficul ties, dams, bridges, tunnels and other significant works have reached com pletion >pr progressed In all parts of the world. "Most important of the dams com pleted was that at Dneprostroy across the Dnieper (Dnepr) river. In the Rus sian Soviet union, about 150 miles north of the Black sea," says the bul letin. "Its construction was superin tonded by American engineers. The dam Is 3,350 feet long and 140 feet high. The maximum capacity of Its generators will be 900,000 horse power, which compares with the 000,000 horse power at Muscle Shoals. "In the state of Bahla, Brazil, a huge | power dam was completed and set to furnishing energy to the city of Bahla (Sao Salvador). The structure Is 1,150 feet long and 131 feet high. "Two widely separated projects on the North American continent made available large amounts of energy without the construction of dams. The first was on the United States side of I the Rio Grande, near Engle Pass, Tex as, where, by gravity diversion, an 80 mlle canal was supplied with water whose flow will produce electric en ergy before being used for Irrigation. The second was the Beauhurnois proj ect, In Canada, a 15-mlle power canal between Lake St. Francis ond Lake St. Louis, on the south side of the St. Lawrence river near Montreal. The hydro-electric plant operated by the canal water will furnish energy to Montreol. Colorado River Turned. "At the site of the Hoover dam, on the Colorado river, between Arizona and Nevada, work on what will be the world's greotest dam, is more than a year ahead of schedule. For the flrst time, probably. In millions of years, a section of the bed of the Colorado river at the dam site Is dry. On No vember 1.1 the stream was turned Intf a tunnel, bored In the canyon wall, and diverted for nearly a mile. On the site of the structure, thus left dry, the actual preparations are being made for laying the dam's foundation. "In Europe, the Moselle canal, first planned ISO years ago, was completed. The 19-mlle waterway Is on the Mo selle river, a tributary of the Rhine, in northeastern France, and connects Mot/, and Thlonvllle. "In the United States, the Illinois . waterway, making possible barge service between Chicago and New Or leans, was completed. "Africa's north-south transportation system was bettered during the year by the building of a 100-mile section of | highway connecting Nlraule and Juba. terminal ports on the Nile. "Italy began work on one of the first express motor-truck roads to be built. It will connect Genoa, Milan, and Tu rin, tapping Italy's moK important In dustrial district. "In the United States five Important federal government highways, opening tip historic and scenic spots, were put iuto use: the Mount Vernon -Memorial highway, from Washington to the home of George Washington ; the Trail Ridge road In the Rocky mountain National park, one of the highest scenic roads Jn the world ; the Cadillac mountain road on Mt Desert island; a new sce nic highway in Glacier National park and a scenic road along the crest of a portion of the Blue Ridge mountains in the Shenandoah National park, Vir ginia. Railway Construction. "Rullwnys crept Into new-territory on live continents and In New Zealand. The longest new railway In the west ern hemisphere was opened in north ern Argentina in August A broad gauge line. It connects previously ex isting rails and affords a short cut be tween Tucuman and Mendozn. It is ISO miles in length. "New railroad construction was practically at a standstill In the Unit ed States. Only 32 miles of rlew rail way was constructed, while 1,380 miles of small branch line 'feeders' was abandoned. "Most Important rail development In the United States was the steady elec trification of standard railways in sub urban districts. Main line electrifica tion was completed by one railway sys tem between New York and Wilming ton. Work is progressing between the latter city and Washington. "The most important bridge to reach completion In the United States was the Jersey City-Newark viaduct, which is four miles long and crosses two riv ers at a level to permit the possuge of ocean-going ships. The structure became one of the most heavily trav eled entrances to and exits from New York city. It is estimated that 20, 000.000 automobiles will pass over it each year. "Among other bridges completed In the United States were the Schuylkill river bridge at Philadelphia ; the West inghouse bridge near Pittsburgh ; and the Rogue river bridge, near Gold Reach, Ore. "The most significant land reclama tion projects were carried on in the Netherlands, where the Dutch contin ued to rob the Zuiderzee; and in Italy, where thousands of acres of the once malaria-infested Pontine marshes, south of Rome, were drained and turned into farm lands."
