What with a vast amount of entertaining going on for the men home on furlough small wonder is it that the call for lovely dine and dance dresses is resounding throughout the fashion realm these days. Then too, it gives zest to the demand for dress-u- p clothes in that the holiday season is coming on with many plans for the social season which will then be at its height. . That the longer-lengt- h gown has definitely regained its former style prestige, there is no doubt. In creating the modish long dinner gowns and evening formals, designers are making approach from two different angles. The one leads to statuesque, siren-slisheathlike gowns that bespeak dignity and ultra sophistication, setting a new high in lovely-ladfashions. The other contrasts the sophisticate types with bouffant creations that are youthfully and fashioned of yards and yards of fine net or sheerest marquisette, that billows about over a e silk or satin foundation like clouds on a summer day. The skirts are topped with girlish bodice tops fitted to accent the slim waistline. They all have most beguiling decollette necklines, the effect being favored alare many other attracthere though versions. tive low-cElegance together with the appeal of youth is seen in the lovely holiday gown of white net over white satin shown to the right in the illusbodice tration. It has a halter-towith a bouffant skirt of white net worked over shimmering white satin. Red sequin applique accentuates the graceful diagonal seaming of the bodice. The achievement of the dinner gown shown to the left is in its suave lines and its gracious dignity.

The narrow skirt is slit at the hemline in front, a styling technique that is featured in most of the new siren-slievening gowns. The accompanying scarf, accented with the same beaded rose design, can be worn over the hair in the traditional senorita manner, or it can be knotted as a scarf at one shoulder. Scarfs are everywhere in the evening mode, either of or sheer. In the artful hands of the wearer that understands its wiles and its witchery, a scarf adds greatly to the charm of a long stately gown. Typical of the newest evening trend toward tall statuesque lines the sheath dress centered in the group is of unusual interest. For this handsome gown the designer chose a purple in a soft violet tone for the material itself. Purple is a leading color favorite this .season Three fuchsia bows in satin with edge dramatically high light this gown at neckline, waist and knee. The side slit in the skirt adds glamour to scene in that it re veals with every move the beauty of exquisitely designed silver kid evening shoes. There is much to be said in regard to the present flair for winter white in the evening mode. Made of white crepe or jersey in the new sculptural and draped lines, very simple save for a discreet use of crystal and silver embroidery, these prettily feminine gowns are among the fashion successes of the season. The white jacket blouse-toin silver and white brocade is also tres chic.

SNAPPY FACTS ABOUT RUBBER Km Tha six of the country' synthetic rubber production may depend not only upon technical progress, but also upon policies adopted for disposal of government-owne- d plants, in the opinion of John L. Collyer, president of The B. F. Goodrich Company and a pioneer in synthetic development. Authorities expect that about tons of natural rubber will reach the U.

When the head of the fish was placed against a black background, its entire body turned very dark, and vice versa, says Co- llier's. The uncanny ability of this fish to copy a varied background was also shown by putting it against a black - and - white checkerboard which it reproduced well enough to make itself indistinguishable at a distance of ten feet.
