Hair Fashion Designs New Hair fashion design* have de veloped a new look in shape and length this (all. They have named It the siren lift. It features bangs or soft waves across the forehead, short curls or waves at the sides of the face, and the baek is brush ed up and cut much shorter than the sides. This is a rather complicated thing and is not catching on with the fire the designers had hoped for. Instead, it has been reported that a short, soft, casual cut seems to be becoming quite popular. Al so,- extermely long hair is more in favor than in many recent years. Women have been educated to the fact that long hair worn in a bun at the back of the neck has an aging effect on- the face. Per haps for this reason the long hair arrangement most popular, places the weight of the hair high up off the neck. The sides and front are kept soft and waved. The new makeup for fall is really not new. It is a continua tion of last fall. There is, how ever, a new face powder which contains ground pearl*. It is used along with conventional powder to high-light a good feature or to give • lovely sheen to the com plexion. Many Items of makeup are be ing made with Royal Jelly. Royal jelly is the latest "wonder" ingre dient. It is quite expensive and there is no doubt that the claims made of what It can do to retard aging are mostly wishful thinking. The creams, containing royal jelly, Annual P-Ta| Meet?
