You can count on an important handbag to give an ordinary outfit an air of elegance. With texture and costume silhouette both influencing handbag designs, the current fall crop emerges as the best looking for years.
New Handbags Give Fall Outfits Elegance
The box shaped handbag is a basic accessory, which can be gotten in everything from tailored calf to faile and velvet. This type of handbag is as right for a slim trim tweed suit as it is with a full-skirted after-5 dress.
The calf bag is perfect for tweeds, soft flannels, and woolens. Such calf styles also appear softly cushioned with foam rubber to lend grace to its outline and softness to the touch.
Handles are hidden or they are boldly evident in gold or silver chain handles on square or pouch shances.
Greeting Card Idea Prevents Forgetting
To help in getting birthday and anniversary cards into the mail on time, try this good idea. When you buy several cards, sign, seal, and address them right away.
Write the date for mailing each card in the top right corner of each envelope. Comes the day for mailing, stick the stamp over the date and pop the greeting into the nearest mailbox.

Preschool Association Plans Day Care Center
Because parents of lower income groups often find it difficult to provide satisfactory care for their children when necessity forces the mother to work, the Lawrence Preschool association, established two years ago, is making tentative plans for a day care center, according to Miss Ruth McNeilly, president of the association.
The purpose of the day care center is not only to give a child custodial care, but to provide a happy, secure day for the child while his mother is away. Also to give the child such experiences as will help him develop wholesomely. The physiological needs for food, sleep, and activity will be planned for, and an attempt will be made to satisfy social and emotional needs of the child, through the daily program and understanding guidance of the staff.
Any normal preschool child, age two to five, whose mother is employed should be admitted, Miss Ruth McNeilly, assistant professor of home economics, said.
The day care center should be open from 7 a.m. to 5 or 3 p.m. five or six days a week as the need demands except on official holidays.
Some preschool children may come for only half a day with or without lunch; kindergarten children may come for lunch and the afternoon.
Rates will be established for each of these groups based on general sliding scale geared to the income and other circumstances of the families involved.
It is suggested that a governing board be set up, drawing its members from groups sponsoring and supporting the center, including representatives from the health department, Chamber of Commerce, Community Chest, social welfare department and the Lawrence Preschool association.
The board shall have responsibility for all matters pertaining to the operation of the Center.
The staff desired for a base of 25 children would be a director, assistant director, a cook-assistant, a cleaner, and other assistants such as University students and volunteers. Services of a public health nurse should be available as needed.
Heavy Coat Hints For Longer Wear
Here are ways of saving coats wear and tear. Do not hang a coat on a hook, the weight can pull the collar out of shape. Always use a hanger.
Anyone interested in having children cared for by the nursery or wishing to cooperate in backing the day care center should contact Miss McNeilly at 925 Alabama st., or phone 3930-J.
Men who take good care of their clothes often seem to think nothing of abusing their overcoats or heavy jackets.
The Education Majors Are Doing It..?
Always unbutton a coat when you are sitting down, otherwise it will be stretched out of shape.

At their next meeting, Monday, Nov. 17, the Engineerettes will have Pat Read, Indian trader, as their speaker.

A picture of several Czech models shows one in a becoming subdued grey, woolen costume with a small hat of the same material, another in a simple school-girlish dress and $q$ third in a flowing autumn coat with deen pockets and large collars.
Iron Curtain Dims Fashions
Vienna—(U.P.)—Arbiters of fashion behind the Iron Curtain may frown on imitations of western models but neither have they copied the grey, drab dressmaking of Soviet Russia.
Judging from photographs and occasional articles in the Communist press, dressmakers in Czechoslovakia and Hungary, once noted for their originality, are placing emphasis on strict simplicity in line with Com-
Another photo shows a very conservative young debutante's dress, made of light white material with a tight-fitting collar.
The models were reported to have been admired greatly at a recent fashion show in Leipzig, where the Czechs stole the first prize from East Germany, Polish, and Hungarian fashion makers.
However, the average Czech, Polish or Romanian woman has to watch her family budget carefully and can do little more than admire the new styles.
Another difficulty is the prices:
“Perlon” stockings and other imitations of nylon cost as much as 1,000 crowns ($20) in Prague. Only shoes are still good and plentiful.
As a result, for most women behind the Iron Curtain the term "autumn" or "spring" fashions has little meaning. For work, she will wear factory-made "utility" clothes, and for the theater or party she will dip into her shrinking reserve of pre-war clothes or those dearly brought on the black market after the war.
Buttons Give Change To Blouse or Dress
To get alternate "new looks" for a blouse or dress, measure and mark (with pins) on several lengths of twill tape, the spaces between the buttons on one of your garments.
Sew a different set of buttons on each tape. Make buttonholes on both sides of the garment front. Place a tape of buttons inside and button all the way through.
