PARIS COPIES " CROWN JEWEL COLOR TONES By ALICE MAXWELL PARIS, April 27.—Stealing colors from crown jewels is the latest de- velopment in Paris style piracy. The glowing tones of emeralds, ru- bies and sapphires are being “lift- ed” to color evening fabrics and highlight day prints. Crinkly taffeta the shade of pale yellow diamonds makes tight-skirt- ed eveninz gowns with bustle- draped backs. Emerald tulle spreads out into pigeon fan-tail pleats for flared dance frocks. Sapphire chif- fon folds under in harem hems. And ruby faille widens out into stiff gadgets. The white gems, too, find expres- sion in snowy laces and glistening satins. Heavy white crepes drape softly while white organdies and muslins flare starchily. White also flourishes in grosgrain coats, shan- tung suits and linen frocks. The entire range of jewel colors is spattered over white or black grounds—in flowered prints or dot- ted and striped patterns. Reds and blues divide honors ers for belts and shoes and com- |bine in braids which make curly- @nd manager; cues for coats and jackets. Amber and the tawny shades of the tortoise shell are favorites for wool costumes. Light browns of the cinnamon type and a copper shade called “chaudron” make ‘smart spring tailurs. Many of them right field. are pencil-striped in white. ——————— Skunks Move In, Students Go Out PORTLAND, Mich,, April 27— Two skunks which crawled under the Hamil District school near here caused the hurried evacuation, Mrs. Christine Guillford, the teacher, is holding classes in the nearby farm home of Mrs. Alice Dutcher.

National Park Service to Protect Duck Hawk WASHINGTON, April 27. — The peregrine falcon, described by wild- life specalists as “the most spectac- ular representative of American air- life,” is threatened with an extinc- tion akin to that of the dodo bird. So the Nafional Park Service is planning to prevent its disappear- ance from the American scene. The service will preserve breeding and feeding ranges in national parks and in recreational areas. The falcons, also known as duck {hawks, are said to have flying speeds up to 70 miles an hour. Their ter- ritory includes most of the United States except the South and the lower secton of the Mid Atlantic States. — .o The average adult American eats more than five slices of bread each day.
