Nubbly Wools a Midseason Choice
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

EW clothes are a wonderful ton-
ic. For minds that go jaded in
mid-winter after the holiday excite
ment dies down, try the reaction of
a smart new frock or coat or, bet
ter still, an entire ensemble. To
start right, browse about in mid
season collections, eye-alert for the
stunning outfits that are being made
of intriguing woolen, for woolen
weaves are gaining favor right
along.
Lovely -featherweight woolens
you’ll find, that are caressingly soft-
textured against the skin and have
just enough warmth to be welcome
at this time of year. These de
lightful winter dress wools are
equally good choices whether you
spend the mid-season months in the
cold weather or warm weather sec
tions. The slim moulded silhou-
ettes tailored of sheer wool fabric
^lide under fur coats suavely and
they are just as attractive with lit-
itle fur boleros or jackets, light
weight coats that may be furred or
unfurred, or worn with no coats at
tall under sunny skies.
Speaking of fur boleros, they give
you your cue as to what’s about the
smartest item on the mid-season
style program. A dashing bolero of
black skunk gleams richly against
.the dull surfaced mossy texture of
the smart frock shown to the right
in the picture. The wool weave is
the closely woven nubbly kind that
is so sought for this season. The
dress is trimly tailored with twisted
cord detail at the neckline, down
the front and at the edges of the
self-fabric belt.
We could go on and on telling
about the voguish little fur boleros
that are playing so important a
role at present but we started out
with the theme in mind of intriguing
woolens. However, we do want to
say a word about the new and
jaunty bolero trios that include a
perky little hat, a diminutive bar
rel muff to match the jacket. The
sporty types are of various furs,
the youthful spotted pelts especially
outstanding. For the dressier types
it’s ermine. They’re making them
too, of lamb’s wool to wear skiing
and skating. The bolero with its
jv/% i
bm
hat and its muff made of cloth to
match the dress it tops, is a high-
style gesture if embroidered a la
peasant fashion in bright hued yarns
or give it the glittering note if you
will. Jet beads or sequins on black
wool are tres chic.
You’ll like the new nubbly wool
ens that are so much in evidence
just now. They make up smartly in
coats, black with Persian lamb be
ing a leader. The sheer dress nub
bly woolens are the “last word’’
for wear during the temperamental
mid-months that lead to spring. A
fine woven nubbly woolen in soft
blue makes the mid-season costume
or outfit for resort wear as pictured
to the left. The knee-length coat is
luxuriously collared in natural blue
fox. Silver lame applique at the
front closing and pockets achieve a
gleaming accent against the dull
richness of the fabric.
As to woolens in general, the
vogue for black is reflected in the
stunning black frocks in many types
of woolen, all of which have in
common the knack of fine wool for
taking a sooty black aspect^ that
makes a perfect background for the
gleaming decorative metal touches
and snow-white accents that are
used on this year’s finest frocks.
Very lovely are the alpaca-and-wool
mixture fabrics that are lightweight
and close woven, therefore tailor
beautifully. In high favor also are
the very soft rabbit woolens that
drape perfectly, lending them
selves to dressmaker styling. Sheer
worsted crepes and novelty sheer
worsteds with small self pattern-
ings are equally lovely in the popu
lar black or in rich jewel tones.
Fine wool jerseys are also avail
able and are used for shirred and
draped afternoon frocks as well as
school and sportswear. Fine wool
broadcloths are the wanted medium
for sleek dinner suits with accents
of glittering sequins, metal em
broidery or fur as a sophisticated
trimming detail.

GLAMOUR’S THE WORD
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Headdresses such as this hold
sway at fashionable opening nights.
Earrings are returning to favor to
balance the upsweep of hair.
Rapturous veils halo face and hair
with exotic charm. Nail polish in
flower shades matches the flowers
in the hair or flowered jewels that
are worn, heralding the return of
exquisite daintiness for feminine
hands. Glamour and allure are fash
ion requisites this year and it is
meticulous care as to flattering de
tails that counts in reaching the
goal.
Winter Blouses
Shirtwaist blouses in silk crepe to
match dark-hued tailored suits are
a feature of Molyneux’s mid-season
collection.
GAY KNIT GLOVES
CREATE SENSATION
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
If there is one thing more than
another . that will cause a somber
costume to change its tactics of be
ing conservative it’s a pair of the
new handmade Viennese , gloves
worn with it. You could pile on any
number of gewgaws and they would
not play up the dramatics like these
spectacular white knit gloves do.
You see it is the hand embroidery
done in a riot of color that causes
passers-by to turn a startled eye.
They are the height of fashion, these
“comfy,” ornate gloves knit of soft
white yarn and embroidered in the
true gay peasant spirit.
Little Hoods of Velvet
Are Coming Into Fashion
The peasant print bandanas and
kerchiefs, which college girls and
resorters are wearing tied under
the chin, have a rival. It’s the
new little hoods of velvet which are
fashioned quite like baby bonnets.
They are cunning as can be and
young girls are wearing little velvet
ones back and forth to their parties.
For the beach these wee hoods
are in gay printed stripes.
For Sports Wear
Short-sleeved blouses in silk jer
seys and wools are outstanding for
wear with sports suits.
Glitter for Evening
Glistening lames and slinky satina
are favorites for evening dresses.

or in three shades of one color
for a lovely jeweled effect. Ideal
in four-fold Germantown. Pattern

Growing House Plants.—When
soil in which house plants are
potted becomes more like clay
than loam it may be lightened by
adding sand to it. Plants grow
best in this kind of soil.

Grouping Furniture.—Groupings
of furniture, including pictures
and lamps, should generally bal

and effect of lightness or heavi
ness, housing experts say.

Thread Needle This Way.—Al
ways thread the end of cotton
broken off the reel into the nee
dle, not the loose end, and it will
never knot. When using double
thread knot the two ends separate
ly—tnis prevents any tiresome
twisting and knotting.

Don’t Burn the Cake.—Set an
alarm clock to go off at the time
when cakes, and roasts, are due
to be finished. It can be heard all
over the house and acts as a re
minder to the busy housewife
who, intent on another job, may
have forgotten the time.
• * *
Prune Salad.—Cook some large
prunes, one for each person. Stone
and stuff with cream cheese which
has been softened with a little
milk. Let the stuffed prunes set
for half an hour. Take one or two
large lettuce leaves and arrange
on each plate. Cut a slice of
orange on the round and place
on lettuce, and in the center of
orange place a stuffed prune.
Serve with mayonnaise dressing.
V * *
Washing Walls.—When washing
dirty painted walls with soapy wa
ter containing a cleaning powder,
the job is made easier if a little
flour is added to the water to
make a paste. The paste will
hold the mixture to the wall long
enough for the powder to dissolve
the dirt.
Today's Trast
HpHIS day is before me. The c»-
cumstances of this day are my
environment; they are the mate
rial out of which, by means of my
brain, I have to live and be happy,
and to refrain from causing un
happiness in other people. It is
the business of my brain to make
use of this material. Not tomor
row! Not next year! But now!
Today, exactly as today is! the
facts of today, which, in my un-
regeneracy, I regarded primarily
as anxieties, nuisances, impedi
ments, I now regard as so much
raw material from which my
brain< has to weave a tissue of
life that is comely.
Hopeful Impulse
Every heart that has beat

The modern majesty consists in
