GASTON. an is style con- conscious of P v, and of he style requirements as an in- dividual. She is likely to be aware of the current fashions of any season, but she does not give sufficient thought to choosing from those styles the colors and lines adaptable to herself. That, I believe, is one reason why 80 few women are really well dressed. It is not a question of expenditure at all. For only tco often the woman with a very limited allowance is much better dressed than another woman with a much greater one. The reason no doubt is that the former realizes she can't afford to make a mistake, so gives a great deal of thought to the costumes she finally chooses. For it does take thought to be well dressed— serious thought, in these days when such a host of models is presented, and 80 many trends and styles are acknowl- edged by the fashion world. I ean imagine the average' woman Wiewing the many models of any sea- son. She is intrigued by the color of one, by the line of another, by the nov- elty of another. She hears a friend remark that she is chocsing blue, or ved, or a dress of a certain inspira- tion. Then, instead of considering whether these same colors and lines are going to be becoming to her, she rushes | i out and buys the same things, often ‘with disastrous results. Now what should this impetuous lady @o if she is to be really well dressed” She should, of course, know what the mev modes are. She must learn the new colors, the new 1 For without this knowledge, she will not be abreast of current style. But this information s only the first step toward smartness. ‘The next step, and quite as necessary a one, is a study of her own individuality in relation to the mode, unbecoming hues than to limit yourself 1o the three or four possibilies which your mirror tells you are acceptable. But once you have become accustomed to your appearance when dressed in your most becoming coior, you will not | be satisfied to wear unbecoming hues.

This is due in part to the fact that the French woman takes the ques- | tion of clothes seriously.

But above all, there is friendly consultation between client and designer, so that every costume is the result of study and experimentation. * K K % 'HE American woman does not have the advice of a designer in choosing her clothes, but she does often have the expert advice of a saleswoman, and she can, if she will, develop a critical attitude toward styles. She can, if she | interested—and every woman is—| learn her most becoming colors and lines. She can learn to express her in- dividual taste through her clothes. Many American women, of course, do express their own personalities through their clothes. Many others, however, although well dressed, suggest soldiers in uniform. They are too much alike. If one is wearing navy blue, all are wearing navy blue. That is not indi- viduality. It is not even chic.

LTHOUGH a great many of the smart Parisians still linger on the Riviera, there is a sprink- ling of well dressed women to be seen 2ny day at distinguished hotels and tea rooms. Some of these are New Yorkers, on their way south; others are South Americans, members of the Parisian colony, just now re- turning from visits to Buenos Aires and Rio de Janiero and spending a few days in assembling new wardrobes before the approaching Grande Saison. The South Americans, incidentally, are among the A smartest women of Paris, some of them, like Mme. Martinez de Hoz, having es- tablished world-wide reputations, 'not only for their inimitable chic, but for their exquisite beauty.

'I{w collections were, of course, shown some weeks 8go, but it is always interesting to know just what details and features have been taken up by the smart group which more or less sets a stamp of approval on couturiers’ aflerlnu.‘ * x % AMONG daytime costumes I have hat noted several interesting points. Skirts, for instance, seem to me to be rather narrower and straighter than they were early in the Winter. The waistline is slightly lower and there is often a tendency to blousing. The neck- line continues high—indeed, there is often a standing collar. A new tendency, however, which I have observed is the increasing interest in the square neck- line. I have seen only one or two of these thus far, but these indicate a new departure, I feel. Sleeves, which have, as you 0w, been attracting more than their share of attention for many months past, are inclined to be less dra- matic. I still see the puffed and leg-o- Prints Are Prominent HIS is to be a season of diversity, and the greatest variety is seen in febrics.

Hemp linen coats, cut on swagger lines, will be worn with dark dresses, showing a new alliance. There is almost as much latitude in the choice of the lines of dress as in fabric. Coats are long and fitted, short and boxy, of finger-tip length or knee- length and hugging the waistline, of the Eton jacket type, and many others. Shoulders are broad and sleeves are larger at the top; on this the best de- signers agree. * % % % NECKL!N!S of evening dresses are higher and are twisted and draped to give the most flattering outline pos- sible. Sometimes scarfs are used to still further cover the decolletage. Shirred ribbon is & new material for dresses.

A V-shaped in- gert at the waist is of navy blue satin ribben and continues into a draped sash, making the waistline adjustable, & very popular feature in many of the dresses of today. A collar and jabot, made of loops of the navy blue satin ribbon, trim the neckline. = 8. M. C.

Not that sleeve interest has vanished. On the contrary, there is still a great deal of clever detail to be noted, but more attention is p2id to other features of the costume and, consequently, less to sleeves. I find that novelty fabrics of every kind are still in favor. Matelasse and cloque are important, and although there are hints that they will soon go out, I cee little evidence of it thus far. For instance, the other afternoon jotted down a description of a particu- larly good-looking gown, of putty-col- ored crepe, with yoke, inserts in the sleeve and wide belt of a matelasse in the same color. There was a small “pillbox” hat of the same fabric. The other accessories, gloves znd shoes, were in a rather dark shade of brown. * x x % NOTHER striking fashion detail is the continued acceptance of skirts and blouses for daytime wear. The same day I noticed several costumes built up in this way, with a crepe or satin blouse, and usually & wool skirt. One of these had a very severe bl of white satin, with a high rolled %“of lar, tied at the front to form two long ends, with fitted sleeves flaring at the wrist. This blouse, by the way, was a tuck-in, and was worn with a skirt of dull black woolen. Another outstand- ing costume was black and green. the crepe blouse with high neckline and diagonal closing was in black, the slim +| fitted skirt in brllh:“xlmn ‘woolen. The was & black turban with a jade ornament. Another distinguished costume, seen at tea, was of a rough crepe, crinkled lengthwise, in the new shade of dark blue. This was a suit with skirt and rather short jacket, worn with an or- gandy blouse in pale greyish blue. It was worn with small tilted hat of dark blue straw, with a rosette of blue cire flbboexdx at g:eb:tcwedwhnle hat de- signed so wed & large part of the hair at the back. Now to iehnee for just a moment at a few of the more interesting cocktail and dinner dresses that I have seen recently. White satin, I find, is still important, as also are the various nov- elty weaves of crepes in white and off- white shades. I saw a black and red cocktail frock the other evening. This dress is a most striking model with an ankle-length black lace skirt and short Jacket. The sleeves of the frock—which show the transparent jacket— are in a b it red. The frock, when I saw it, was worn by a somewhat exotic young person, with jet black hair and eyes and pale olive skin. The effect was startling l:ld‘ch‘h: in the extreme. * ANOTHER dress, which makes use of the same color scheme, should prove popular, although as yet I have seen it only in salons. This one is in the new tailored mode, which is so much favored right now for evening.

From these few descriptions you will understand the diversity of the present mode, not only in evening costumes but in daytime dresses and suits as well. There has seldom been a time when D. C, OBSCURE ANV CALLED A VERVERR Chicago Art Institute Gift| Jumps in Value From Noth- ing to $40,000. By the Asscclated Press. CHICAGO, March 4.—There’s 8| chance of turning a gift into a clezri profit of perhaps $40,000 here, and it's gelng begging. It has to do with a painting which, since 1911, has hung in an inconspicu- | ous place with hundreds of others in | the galleries of the Chicago Art Instl- | tute. | Until now the world has credited it | with being the work of the Dutch artist, Jacchb Octervelt, who lived from | 1635 to 1700. | ‘Then, L. Charles Wallach, the Eng- | iish eritic, happened along and de- | clared it was from the brush cf the| master, Jchannes Vermeer of Delt, | teacher of Octervelt. | Immediately the canvas. known as| “The Musicians,” began to rise in value, | for, while an Octervelt is not to be dis- | dained, a Vermeer is a positive treas- | ure. None is included in the insti- tute’s collection. But least excited of all is Dr. Robert B. Harshe, director of the institute. | He's accustomed to such things and | has turned down offers of $400,000 for | 000 canvas and $1,000,000 for & $53,000 “vork. “You see, we're interested in art for its sake and not as a financial invest- ment,” he said today, and as an after- thought added, “Perhaps the world would be better off if it had made money less of a goal.” For the present “The Musicians” will continue to carry its little brass tag identifying it as a Octervelt. The marker will not be changed to Ver- | meer until all doubt as to its authen- | ticity has been removed, and that is up to the critics, Dr. Harshe said. Y MARCH 5, 1933—PART -THREE.

MISS PERKINS USES DRAMA TO EXPEDITE HER CAUSES Gra&uate of Hull House and Former Asso- ciate of Jane Addams. She's a Careful Student of Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, March 4 (NANA)— Frances Perkins, new Secretary of Labor | and the first woman cabinet member, | comes from Beston. Although for years a New Yorker, unchanging style of her tricorn hat— a type which she is reputed to have worn ever since she was 10-years old. She still has the farm of her for- bears in Damariscotta, Me., and makes it & Summer home, when she is not ing up her vacation to studying unem- ployment insurance in England or wag- ing a presidential campaign at home. Her childhood was In Boston, her school years in Werchester and her col- lege at Mount Holyoke. | She was an only child until she was nine, when a sister was born. now Mrs. | Prederick H. Harrington of Holde | Mass. Her father—a scholarly, earnes man of old-fashioned standards deep humanness—was very close to her. A Lover of the Classics. Frederick W. Perkins had brought from Maine enough enterprise to pro- vide well for his daughters, but he was never a man chieflly interested in get- | ting on in the world. He knew and loved Greek literature and filled his daughter’s early years with classical lore that may have much to do with the liquid clarity of her expression. Her calm, deep nature developed gr; ually. In college she was ripe for work and the mark she made on her class-| mates at Mount Holyoke caused them to make her their permanent class presi- dent. It was the class of 1802. Frances Perkins now at 50 comes to this apex of her career. She was often the despair of the col- lege faculty and the amazement of her friends. She neglected her courses to| make a factory survey of the vicinity— | her first investigation. Flunking a course, she refused to repeat it, having discovered her bent elsewhere. She called herself Fanny in college. but her vital personality was rendered “Fan” or “Perk” by her classmates. She was executive of half the activities on the campus, from the Golf Club to the | Y. W. C. A. In her junior year she bal- | anced the class budget by organizing a midmorning sale of brownies and sand- wiches which, as the “junior lunch,” has become a college tradition. “Social Righteousness.” Her father’s idea of education had not contemplated economics. But Prances Perkins blossomed with the 'e;ger, new era of the turn of the cen- ry. “My generation had a passion for social righeousness in those days,” she remarked recently. She taught a year in Chicago and read Jacob Rils’ book, “How the Other | Half Lives,” and Lincoln Steffens’ dis- | turbing articles on “The Shame of the Cities.” She met Jane Addams and | then came a period at Hull House. Her mlilm deepened to make & better world. She did not turn to reckless muck- raking, but instead back to the plod- ding labor of the class room. She studled economics and sociology at| Pennsylvania, at Chicago, at Columbia | University. Jane Addams taught her to discrim- inate between justice and sympathy. She taught her that to get anything done you have to dramatize it. But the capacity for dramatizing Frances Perkins always had in her. | She was a great investigator and | she has never got over it. Facts are her gospel. She has always got the facts first, and by the painful process of digging out the facts, situations focused £o clearly in her own mind that she has never had much trouble making @ situation or need clear to others. If there is any moral in the rise of Frances Perkins it is in her implicit reliance on facts. And the facts have never failed her. A Saving Sense of Humor. She saves words by spare speech, that comes straight to the point. is always calm and has saving humor. She knows human nature like a book.
