KEEP cclaimed In ari the Wide Use of Prints for By CHERIE NICHOLAS Cause Is Still Uncertain, Though Use of Helium Would Have Prevented II But Uncle Sam Owns All the Helium! By WILLIAM C. UTLEY I 'T'HERE must be no more We We world takes a holiday WHEN the beach, tennis court, golf course, aboard ship or wherever vacation lures the playful, watch prints.- We promise you that you will see prints this summer such as you have never seen before, armies of them, droves of them, processions of them! It would seem as if style creators are Just discovering thdt if there la one place more than another where riotously gay prints lend themselves dramatically to the picture, it is at the beach and its environs. The vibrant blue and green hues of the sea, the vast dome of a glamorous opalescent sky, the bright glare of the sun, the stretches of golden sand call to the colors, and to more color and more in the fashion parade. So it is that prints for beach and for swim wear have become a bobby with designers this summer. Needless to say, for the most part its linens and cottons that steal the show when it comes to rollicking, frolicking beach and costumes. The grand thing about the spectacular printed linens and cottons that are so thrlllingly enlivening the pageantry of fashion blow is that you where can wear them with all confidence, knowing that they have been scientifically processed so that they wont shrink and they wont lose their high color no matter how wet the water, no matter how many duckings they get, no matter how relentlessly scorching sun rays attack. This asand of colsurance of or endurance that goes with modern wash materials has, as a matter of fact, proved persuasive in encouraging the movement that is now on of featuring tub prints in a big way for beach fashions and also for swim suits. As to whether you don linen or sea-goin- g TIPLESS GLOVES By CHERIE NICHOLAS V- - ;Y: i-'- cotton In the existent orgy of prints that is being staged on land or aea la entirely a matter of choice since one is declared aa good style as the other. A truly amphibian suit done in the modern spirit la worn by the exultant water nymph centered in the accompanying picture. A swim suit of this type, made of print, the patterning of which is as smart and distinctive as is this patterning and which la guaranteed sanforized shrunk as is this print, will do honor a to even the most cruise wardrobes. Any girl would look pert and modern in the clever sport pajamas here shown. It Is one of the newer prints that have so much swank and at the same time so many practical advantages not only for beach wear but for house wear aa well. This gaily patterned linen washes like si hankie. And do for fashion! sake see the cunning play suit to the right in the group. Yes, you can have a costume exactly like it, buy it already made or get the material and sew your own. The new Hungarian cotton prints such as have been used for the making of this fetching outfit are selling as fast as they can be measured off on the yard stick. The colors are rich and glowing and the prints faithfully reproduce original fabrics. The trick is to make them up in keeping with their quaint design, in just some such peasant manner as here shown. Full skirt of course and rather short is according to the prescribed formula. Tune it to practical active sports wear by choosing a divided-skir- t pattern. Let the bodice be backless for comfort and for "style" on a hot summer day. And to the entire add a smart bolero to give it that picturesque peasant flavor which fashion thinks so well of this season. ultra-of-ultr- d C Western Newspaper Union. PASTEL LACES FOR WEDDING DRESSES By CHERIE NICHOLAS Pastel laces for the weddmg gown, as well as the bridal partys dresses are a new note this season, and one tha. bids fair to gain in popularity through the season. Very pale pastel are used, so pale that they are almost white, and yet have a special shimmer that would not be attained by plain white. One of the loveliest of these pastel wedding gowns that we have seen is of palest blue linen thread, and the edge of the train, and the edge of the slit skirt, are scalloped with the scallopnet In ing accented by the same blue. The necklinetoo, is edged with the fine net pleating. Net, as well as lace, ranks highly for bridal gowns this season. Silk net, particularly, is adapted to molding the figure, and when cut on a princess line, accenting the slender figure, it makes a truly beautiful bridal gown. And whereas net veils bridal are prevalent over lac gowns, a net wedding dress Is best set off by a lovely lace wedding veil One veil that we have seen, over a net gown, was of lace, and very short A bertha collar of lace was attached to the net train, the lace forming borders on the sidea of the train.

Thus spoke Dr. Hugo Eckener, he who is known as the world's great1 r est authority" on llghter-than-- a craft after being informed Yhat Germany's proud Hindenburg had crashed spectacularly upon completing her maiden 1937 Atlantic crossing at Lakehurst N. J. There have been several theories advanced aa possible causes of the disaster, but no one la yet sure which la the correct one, and it la doubtful if anyone ever will be. Sabotage was suggested, merely that no possibility be overlooked, and Immediately rejected. It might have been static electricity which set off the highly explosive hydrogen gas. All aircraft are apt to accumulate it, especially when flying through or near a thunderstorm. But this seems unlikely In the case of the Hindenburg, for her ground lines had been down three minutes before the crash, and presumably all charges of static electricity would have passed Into the earth. Spontaneous Combustion? Another theory, more complicated than the others, was that of Prof. Otto Stern, of Carnegie Institute of Technology, and formerly connected with the Zeppelin works in Germany. Professor Stern expressed wonderment that the accident had not happened sooner, due to peculiar action of the proton of the hydrogen atom. Tbs hydrogen - proton, he explained, la charged with positive electricity, which la offset by a charge of negative electricity In the electron, which cover the proton like a shell. When the gai la leaking under pressure, many of the protons lose their electrons, and racq madly about seeking new ones. This causes ipontaneous combustion. So rapidly did the flames engulf the ship, the versions of witnesses as to the cause were varied (fire wept from one end of the Hindenburg to the other in 32 seconds). Several Insisted, however, the rear port engine waa throwing sparks from its exhaust as the ship came to the mooring mast The theory considered most probable at the time of this writing la that these sparks, whipped by the win'd, per-- h a p a , ignited hydrogen being valved out as the ship came down. It is customary to valve gas in landing. Whether one of the conditions cited in this brief review was th cause of the explosion, or whether the true cause has not yet even been suggested, one thing la certain: An explosion of the highly Inflammable hydrogen gaa wrecked the airship. And no such explosion lould have occurred had the Hindenburg been filled with inert, helium gaa. Thereby bangs a tale.
