Properly Dry Cleaned
It’B not enough to buy good clothes . . . you’ve got to
take care of them to have them look right. Frequent
dry cleaning enables precious woolens to keep their
bright colors and trim fit. Date dresses too, last long

the girl who always presents a neat, clean appearance
. . . and fraternities follow in line! Our expert clean

CLASS IN FASHION FOR BACK TO SCHOOLERS
THREE SMART GIRLS wearin,
basic “musts” for the ’teen school
wardrobe.
Suit ami dress
double for class
ami dates . . .
the gown ro
m antes in
dance time.
THE Sl'IT IS THE STANDBY, wear-everywhere
fashion that’s the 1942 school girl’s first choice!
True to type is a model of soft, warm Botany flan
nel, with new Victory-length jacket and six-gored
skirt. Pretty, and pretty patriotic, in its fabric
saving silhouette!
THE IlKESS IS NEWS—For classes, snacks be
tween, and dates after—co-eds rely on the tailored
dress, detailed with pockets, pleats, fly-front and
a row of buttons fastening down one side. What
makes the dress shown NEWS is its fabric; looks
like wool, is warm like wool, but doesn’t contain
an ounce! It’s Mallinson’s Twiltour, a brand new
re* on flannel, light-weight, soft, a wartime wool
saver.
THE PARTY GOWN—School parties, USO dances,
and thrilling furlough dates call for fashions de
mure in a sophisticated sort of way: like the
Crown Tested rayon taffeta plaid dance frock in
Pennsylvania Dutch manner. It’s a dress to be
loved and cherished for seasons of faithful service,
because its fabric doesn’t sag or shrink; cleans
and wears like a charm.
War Places Wearability First

Expert Planning Of Ward
robe For School Misses
Is Prime Requisite
BY BETTY GREEN
Fashion Editor. Parents’ Magazine
“Will it wear well?” and “will
she wears it often?” are two ques
tions you should ask yourself be
'fore each purchase for your school
age daughter’s back-to-school
wardrobe this year. Informative
hangtags and labels, helpful sales
people, and your own knowledge
of fabrics will help you answer
the first question.
It takes expert planning, and un
derstanding of school land after
school) activities and the ability
to anticipate fashion trends, if
you want to pick the war-time
clothes that will become her fa
vorites, and if lou want to avoid
the costly mistakes that will spend
the fall an dwinter on closet hang
ers.
Build her school wardrobe around
Classics and you can’t go wrong.
Let’s start with a good fleece coat,
whether she is seven or seventeen
Let’s see that she is well-euipped
with mix-and-match “separates.”
Let’s be sure that she has at least
one jumtver dress.
To be on the safe side, pick her
coat in a neutral shade that goes
with everything. That’s another
way of saying “pick camel tan.'”
Spice up her wardrobe with
bright reds in sweaters, jackets
and accessories. Invest in plaids
and she will reap dividends in
good looks and good wear.
When /you consider plaids, don’t
overlook the new American Re
gional Plaids in gigham dresses
and the authentic MacArthur clan
plaid in wollen sportswear.
You have been reading so much
about the War Production Board’s
restrictions or fashions ar.d, of
course, you want to know how they
are going to affect your family’s
back-to-school wardrobes.
Well they are all to the good,
ns far as your teen-age high school
daughter is concerned.
Gone are her over-sized droppy
jackets; her very flared skirts; her
sloppy sweaters.
In their place there will be trim
ly shorter jackets that flatter the
figure (and save millions of yards
of fabric), cleverly styled skirts,
sweaters that look like sweaters—
not potato sacks.
« • *
And here are some of the new
fashions that' are gping. to be ac
cepted by high schoolers every
where; the ones that your daugh
ter will tell you ‘‘all the girls are
wearing, mother!”
Teddy Bear coats will be the
teen delight this fall (they are
made of that yummy, warm pile
fabric that looks like fur); trench
coat details wil lappear in coats;
date dresses will feature short
"Jiug-metight” jackets and mod
erately flared skirts instead of
last year’s long torso bodice,
dirndl skirt silhouette.
War activities will foster a whole
family of trousered fashions, from
knee-lengf- ------ wcnd-fui with
1_ UUxI
less slacks, culottes and even
knickers. Teens will do wisely to
pick boxy style coats or classic
wrap-arounds, because both types
look as well over trousers as they
do over skirts.
* * *
The Grammar School gals (those
“growing-ups” that wear sizes
7 tol4) are going to wear as many
skirts, jackets and sweaters as
their older sisters. They adore
jumpers, from the button front
versions to more dressy dirndl
styles.
Their cotton dresses will be
mainly of woven fabrics, such as
gingham, or of plain colored cot
tons, such as pique and broadcloth.
There will be plenty of rickrack
and embroidered trimming in
them to compensate for the dreath
of really interesting printed fab
rics. They will wear one-peice
snow-suits, inspired by the now
famous Churchill suit.
School girls of every age will be
wearing lots of corduroy this fall.
It keeps them warm and it helps
to save on wools. So do the new
rayon blends—some using a per
centage of wool, others introducing
made from milk casein.
Wind-resistant water-repellent
cottons and rayons will play a big
ger part in the school wardrobe
than ever before.
Is she starting kindergarden,
having just reached the precocious
age of six years? Then she needs
plenty of corduroy overalls, cotton
knit shirts, a one-piece snowsuit
that will be easy to get into and
out of, and a well turned out tweed
coat, a tailored model with velve
teen collar (buy her a velveteen
hat to match).
Yes, before you buy any school
clothes, make sure that your
oaughter approves of them or else
she will find every excuse not to
wear them. Then make sure that
they will wear well. With good
planning you can buy her less and
still give her a well-rounded ward
robe.
And .because conservation 1#
essential to the war effort, good
wardrobe planning becomes your
economic, patriotic duty.

1942 Fashions In Shoes
Feature ‘Off Duty’ Note
Fashions for feet marching back
to classes this school season have
taken their new timing, as might
be expected, from feet that are
marching off to war, and this is
producing a result that is all to
the good for the youngsters of
today and results their their par
ents will approve.
Styling furnishes plenty of vari
ety, and the “off duty” note also
is clearly apparent among the
shoes for all who go back to class
es, but most important is the
emphasis on health features and
wearability.
Quality shoes, of course, are a
prime requisite of foot health for
growing children, but style plays
a very important part, especially
for tljose more mature youngsters
who are in high school and on
their way to college.
High school and college boys will
take happily to the military in
spired shoes that stress simplicity
of smart lines. Monk type, brogues
and saddle oxfords will be favo
rites again with the younger boys
wearing moccasin and healthful
oxford types.
Although saddle oxfords and Nor
wegian moccasins are in the front
ranks for the co-eds and their
younger sisters, new and more
versatile models are appearing to
please the Critical school crowd.
Extra style emphasis is gained
by the use of contrasting or blend
ing stitching on shoes,' especially
noticeable in the new "harness”
stitching. Brown in antiqued, dark
or cream color with black accent
ed by white stitching for dress
shoes.
Slack shoes, for wear with this
newly popular mode of dress are
included in every school girl’s
well-rounded shoe wardrobe. The
espadrille or ballet shoe, good look
ing and patriotic as it uses no
hard-to-get ornaments, comes to
the fore in the. girls’ favor.
New, too, is. the way the moc
sin type shoe lends itself to dif
ferent shoe styles.
A bid for school favor is made
by the high-riding stepin with
the tongue merging into a moc
casin front, which may have
matching, contrasting or blending
stitching.
For dress-up time, the pump still
holds its. own for the comfort lov
ing schoolgirl. Here again the moc
casin type toe makes an appear
ance, further emphasized by the
harness stitching.
The open back and toe strap
shoe also adheres to this popular
material-saving mode of decora
tion and is especially effective
in the black-leather-stitched-with
white shoe, mentioned before
Suede and leather vie with each
other for fashion favor and run
the gamut of shoe types from
extreme sportswear to dressy “fur
lough” styles.

KEEP BIKE CLEAN
For the sake of appearance and
efficiency as well as from a patriotic
point of conservation, a bicycle
owned by a school child should be
cleaned thoroughly.' Caked mud,
dirt stains and other enemy agents
should be wiped off from the frame
work with a damp cloth, with spe
cial care taken not to scratch the
protective enamel.
