New Legion Head a
Former Aviator
By TALBOT LAKE
THE American Legion has just
elected Harry W. Colmery. of
Topeka. Kansas, as its new Na
tional Commander. A natural abil
ity for leadership, boundless energy
and a keen mind are the qualities
that have carried him to the high
post.
He is a brisk, keen-eyed active
man. who looks like what he is?
a forceful executive personality.
During the war he was a First
Lieutenant in the aviation service.
In the American Legion his wide
spread popularity advanced him
from jne post to the next. He
practices law in Topeka and has a
high legal reputation in that state.
He was born in Braddock. Penn..
in 1890. He went through the
grade schools, worked for the Un
ion Railroad for three years, and
then went to Oberlin College.
After graduating from there he
studied law at the University of
Pittsburgh. He was admitted to
the bar in Pennsylvania, but when
the United States entered the war.
he left that career for the Army
Air Service. v
He did active duty at Kelly
Field. Texas, and Carruthers Field.
Forth Worth. Texas. He was pro
moted to a First Lieutenancy with
the status of pursuit pilot. In 1919
he received an honorable dis
charge.
When the Legion was formed in
1919. Mr. Colmery was in Du
chesne. Utah. He became active in
Legion affairs in Utah and when
he moved to Topeka. Kansas, a
year later he continued the activi
ties which brought him to the
commandership of the organiza
tion.
Mr. Colmery married Miss
Minerva Hiserodt In 1911. They
have three children. Sarah Eliza
beth. Harry W., Jr., and Mary
Caroline.

Guide to Charn
Wear a New
Dress Color
For Variety
By JACQUELINE HUNT
f-fOW do women get the idea
* * that they cannot use certain
cosmetics, that they cannot wear
certain colors or certain kinds of
hats? Because of these ??fixations,"
so many women hide their beauty
behind drab colors, unimaginative
clothes and outmoded hats.
It is true that every woman can
not wear every color or every stylo
becomingly, but it is also true that
with the right make-up. with the
proper attention to the correction
of figure faults and a becoming
coiffure they can wear things they
never dreamed of wearing be'ore.
I know a perfectly lovely girl?
nice dark eyes, brown hair and
skin with a golden glow and rich
natural color?who for years wore
nothing but stuffy shades of
blown, dark green or black. When
I first suggested pale blue and gray
for her she was horrified. Later,
when I accompanied her on a
shopping tour and persuaded her
io uy mese
shades she was
surprised and
then delighted
at the differ
ence they made
in her appear
ance.
The warm
rich tones in
her skin were
heightened b y
contrast with
these cool col
ors: her eyes
seemed darker
and brighter, and her medium
dark hair took on a more distinc
tive shade. Make-up. in this case,
played r.o part, since she used very
little.
Carrying our experimenting fur
ther. we discovered that she could
wear clear, bright red. usually a
difficult shade, during the Winter
and Spring when her skin was
fairest, but that all shades of red
and pink were unsatisfactory dur
ing the Summer when her skin
darkened into a golden brown. For
Summer, white, paie blue and rich
shades of turquoise were best,
while at certain between-season
stages she could wear soft yellow,
gold and peach shades becomingly.

Knit It
Ey FLORENCE DURCHARD
Editor's note:?Knitted icear?
blouses, skills, suits?will be fash
ion favorites this Fall. So Florence
Burchard. rcell-known fashion au
thority. will tell you in a series of
four articles, of ickich this is the
first, just what she is seeing today
in the exclusive salons in Paris.
IF YOU want a knitted blouse,
skirt, or waistcoat to wear with
your Winter suit this year, and
you can't find just the modei you
like in the knitting books?but can
find it in a paper pattern?buy the
paper pattern and?knit it.
Unless you are an expert with
the needles, this may sound a bit
difficult, but it's not.
Choose your yarn, select a stitch
you like from your knitting book
and with the correct sized needles
knit up an inch or two of the de
sign to see how many stitches you
make to the inch. Let us say you
knit six stitches to the inch. Start
at the bottom back of your paper
pattern, measure it with your tape
measure. It measures ten inches
(omitting seam allowances, as you
will want to weave your seams in
stead of sewing them up as you
would with silk or cloth), there
fore your set-up will be six times
ten. or sixty stitches.
With your pattern spread out
before you on a table and your
tape measure around your neck,
knit along until you notice a
widening or narrowing of your pa
per pattern, then measure again
and figure out carefully the num
ber of stitches to be added or
diminished, according to the six
stitches you knit to the inch. Once
you have acquired this paper pat
tern habit you'll find knitting real
ly exciting. Naturally, your paper
pattern must be suitable. A knit
ted garment should never be com
plicated or "fussy."
Combining materials is one of
the new notes I have seen in Paris
this season. Silk combined with
:loth, cloth with velvet, hand
snitting with cloth, silk and velvet.
A waistcoat which runs all
through the collections here worn
with cloth and tweed suits, has its
fronts of cloth, while the back and
sleeves are knitted in a knit two.
purl two rib.
There is scarcely a suit for out
jf-doors or in this season that
hasn't its scarf, and most of these
scarfs are hand-knitted or of a
land-woven material. Ttiey're
vorn Directoire fashion, swathed
ligh about the throat and tucked
nto the high neck of Jacket,
waistcoat or topcoat. What an op
portunity this gives the knitter to
/ary the color note of her cos- ?
lume! If her suit or topcoat Is ,
;weed, she can have a scarf for
?very color in the mixture. If her
iuit is a plain color and her coat
'ur, she can run the gamut of col
prs that harmonize. ^

Spain Sets
New Note in
Fall Styles
By ELEANOR GUNN
New York?Fashions of the hour
are of many modes and tenses.
They are inspired by widely con
flicting sources. The Spanish revo
lution. old Spain too, are among
the inspirational themes while, as
every one knows, Paris is actively
country-conscious.
It is not surprising that mil
liners have looked upon the jaunty
and affective hats cf toreadors
and such and found them good.
You will notice many hats, the
originals of which were worn by
Spanish men, gracing the heads
of American girls. You will also
find boleros and wide, horizontally
banded skirts. You will find, too, a
tendency to revive fringe and that
loveliest of all wraps, the Spanish
shawl, net to mention long swing
ing capes for evening, another
fashion borrowed from the men.
Have I mentioned Schiaparelli's
"Astrologers Cap" as among the
daring hat silhouettes of the mo
ment? Or the fact that an all
black costume and an all - black
hat is often accented by & bit of
exotic color in the h2t?
Maybe I have forgotten to men
tion that veils are still in use, the
little coquettish eye veil being a
great favorite.
It seems to me that there have
been few seasons in which there
are so many talking points, cer
tainly few in which hats have of
fered more than at the moment.
There is more than a flurry of ex- "J
citement of the various birds that
have alighted on hat brims and 1
crowns, some in full flight, also in I
the many furs employed in un- ,
usual ways.
For tliat matter, fur trimmings
of all kinds are of prime impor- J
tincc. There are those who Insist
tliat the fur - trimmed coat is
smarter this season than the all- ,
fur one, but dont let that stop you .
from locking into the matter of 1
the all-far swagger or the fitted <
coat in so called tailored furs. ,
