The sentiment this fall is to get an early start in making suit and coat selections of dependable wool weaves and other quality materials that will carry on faithfully during the school terms to come. The crowd, from kindergarten tots to seniors ready for their B.A., are due for a big surprise this fall in that a new word has entered into its modern vocabulary that has to do with clothes. That word is aralac, and one might as well become acquainted with it, at the dawn of the fall shopping-tour program.

If food looks dull and unattractive, your appetite lags and the food, if eaten is consumed without much relish. The eye wants contrast. Pick foods that go well together. You can serve several green vegetables for one meal, but not several vegetables or all-whi- te all-re- d. Combine meat and vegetables on one platter to get a design and save plates besides! Use garnishes with care and give them an opportunity to bring out the most in your foods. Sprinkle beets with a little lemon juice to make them a more intense red. Cook green vegetables only until done to assure them of being crisp, green. A dash of lemon juice on apples, pears or other fresh fruit will prevent it from darkening. , , ct er (350-degre- e) Color in Tour spent as are rayon and nylon, silk and wool, cotton and linen.

A spun from the casein of skim milk after the nourishing fat has been removed, this protein fiber possesses the insulating qualities and resiliency of natural animal fiber. Not only is it used in 100 per cent form for interlining sports and dress coats, winter play suits and particularly childrens garments but you will find aralac blended with other fibers in fabrics used for sportswear, dresses, coats and suits. We show you in the illustration, a group of fashions which will be making their debut among the campus and playground set this fall. See how supple the lines are, how beautifully-the fabric drapes and tailors. The college-boun- d girl to the left has based her selection on aralac blended with other fiber for travel to and from school, for week-en- d dates, in fact as a background for her whole wardrobe, this collegienne has chosen a suit and matching topcoat in covert, made of aralac blended with wool. The topcoat is interlined with aralac for extra warmth. The teen-agto the right knows her fashion lesson too, for she has chosen a blue tweed with double button closing. This smart coat in wool with velvet trimming accent identifies its aralac interlining with a tag of which she is justly proud., Her snappy visor hat carried out the military look. The girl centered in the group is wearing a basic daytime dress in a new gabardine made of 70 per cent rayon and 30 per cent aralac and youll find it tailors superbly.

In answer to the call milliners are creating the most bewitching headgear of gay ostrich fancy can picture. The outlook is for a big ostrich vogue, not only in hats but neckpieces as well. The hat shown at the top is made entirely of cerise colored ostrich. Long plumes cover the back of the head, falling in portrait fashion to the shoulders.' The other chapeau is a tiny cap that fits over the right side of the head and is accented with three small curled ostrich feathers which tone from gold to brown. es er Released by Western Newspaper Union.
