] ---- Dl a] The Women's Corner * * For Anything of Interest to the Homemaker and the Housekeeper * LJ PARIS SPRING OPENINGS The Paris Spring openings are now being shown in Paris and the * Oshawa women readers who are de- sirous of keeping abreast with the trend of fashion will find many in- teresting fashion notes given be- low, The gowns and wraps are de- signed by famous designers such as Doenillet-Doucet, Berthe, Lan- lef, Mirande, Ardanse, Irene Dana and the new house of Pauline St. Anne, At the latest showing the Doeuil- let-Doucet collection consisted of some 180 models, and was interest- ing because of its bright color -con= trasts, Sports costumes affected ensemble themes with some one- plece costumes simulating a two plece effect, because of strong col- or contrasts, Fabrics included toil- laine and othes light weight wool- ens in bright browns, reds, and soft blues, There was also a series of tailored suits in grey and black mixtures, and in brown and beige checks, These had hip-length jack- ets and circular skirts, The afternoon group was made up mainly of separate dresses with characteristic feminine flounce treatments, stressing undulating bias flounces averaging 10 inches in width and variously disposed. They were sometimes placed at one side only, again arranged in spiral manipulation, and were also fash- foned to give a peplum effect, The afternoon silhouette spon- sored a fitted bodice with normal walist-line, and the skirt frequently lengthened by a dip at the side or back. Distinctive Touches, Necklines were open, some intro- ducing lingerie touches, Slceves were long and simple. The afternoon fabri included black crepe satin and 'many prints accenting floral patterns in medium size in soft multi-colors. There were also several instances of taf feta with printed taffeta included for evening. Skirts for evening were long at the back, and the decolletage var- fed, with the chemise-top type shown. The waist-line was posed at normal, anid the bodice fitted as fn the afternoon dresses, In the evening fabrics much at- tention was given plain chiffon and printed chiffon in bright shades, or floral patterns on dark grounds. Crepe satin in plain bright colors was also endorsed, with such shades 88 flame or vermillion noted. Beading Seen There were also dresses entirely pailletted or beaded im gold on red, dresses of this type being ac- companied by matching coats. The Lapief collection numbered nearly 200 models. Lenief places the waist-line at the top of the hips, and goes in for circular flounces. Dipping hem-lines occur- red occasionally for day dresses, and always for evening. An excep- tion to this ruling was a group of taffeta frocks with outstanding hip and back drapes. Sports frocks gdopted the conventional two-piece fdes, fashioned in flat crepe or jer- sey, Pleated skirts replaced cir- cular ones in the sports group. Coats also adbered to the straight line. Prominence given was navy Bronchial | _ Buckley's Mixture is different from anything else you've ever taken for Coughs, Colds or Bronchitis.

One novel- ty introduces tiny balloon puffs at the shoulders of otherwise long, tight sleeves, A few alpaca dresses and coats were shown, One of the smartest was pinhead dot in white on brown, worn with a brown crepe over- blouse patterned in white confetti dots, The evening dress series was a large one, with chiffon, plain and printed, considerably in evidence, In these, yellows were' very prom- inent, particularly canary, Mimosa and sulphure, ! Warp printed taffeta was also i sponsored, one dress of white and ved flowered taffeta being matched by slippers. There were several supple Tame broche gowns, the most beautiful of which, called "Corouiandel" is in Chinese coloring, in the Miran. de's spring collection, which de- veloped a silhouette molded at the hips, causing the hodiee to suggest a blouse at the baci. ' Flares and Dips Skirts flared with discreet god- ets featured for day-time, becom- ing dull in afternoon types, some- times mass: d at the back and front. Several afternoon frocks were slightly long in the back, The evening silhouette retains the same fe ling, but skirts dipped more decidedly at the back. Many afternoon ensembles of printed crepe and chiffons with soft shorter coats of printed or plain silk in collarlcss styles, the frocks occasionally endorsing scarf, collars, were shown, Separate afternoon frocks were made of plain georgette, faconne, and printed silk. Striking even- ing dresses were included in this collection, some in petal skirt ef- fects. The sports group included jacket sults in woolen mixtures and Shan- tung wool crepes, worn with blouses of printed crepe or with jersey sweaters. Other two-piece types featured flecked tusselya, and car- digan ccstumes appearcd in Mir- ande tricot with fine rib treatments in monotone or two-tone effects, worn with sweaters banded at the bottom in contrasting eolors. Colors stressed in the collection were black, which appeared to a great extent, soft Nile green, and yellowy green. Widow Makes Poetic Appeal To Bachelor A 60-year-old bachelor, who re- cently appealed to the Lord Mayor of Portsmouth, England, to find him "a loving wife," received the following letter from a Bristol widow, who put forward her claims to consideration in rhyme: If the man who wants a loving wife Would give me his attention, There are so many things that I Would just now like to mention, He wants one loving, so it read, And that appeals to me; ; I think if we had only wed How bappy we should be. I am 2 widow sixty-two, And he is just sixtee-- I never take a glass of beer, But like my cup of tea. Domesticated? Yes, I am. I'd keep the home quite spick and span. If only he'd like to choose I'd even clean his Sunday shoes. And if he now will let me know, I'm sure he need not farther go. When part of a mold of jelly is and pour into a smaller mould.
