Fancy Materials Are Popular Quilted satin, organdy, and velve- teen, are of course less durable than the other pillows, but are very pretty for the dainty room. Velveteen pillows are especially decorative in small squares, on which Scotty dogs and ter- riers are sewn in bright mosaic work. A pleasing feature about pillows this year is that the majority of them are not in thie conventional square, round, or rectangular shapes, but in most cases are in the form of elephants, horses, dogs, and innumerable kinds of dolls. For the studio or den, some very appropriate pillows are those of Chi- nese print. They are made of genuine imported Chinese silk and are em- broidered with gold thread. The de- signs consist of Chinese pagodas, i t i Lewrue Open '1 House To Be Held Tuesday Dancing, games, bridge and tours of the building will be included in the program features for OpenHouse,toe be observed Tuesday night in the League.

WOLF, Lapin, Marten, Caracul .. no, it's not a Zoo Directory, it's the furs on the new coats at the Marilyn Shop. The material is called "Tree-Box," just an out- of-doors touch, you know. They're all pure silk lined and very warm- ly interlined (A very important feature for this North-pole-equa- tor weather). They come, of course, in the best fall shades: blue, brown, and black and, the sum total of this- enumeration, the price is only $25. ** * WE WENT SHOPPING for one of those "hard-to-buy" gifts the other day and found just that at Calkins-Fletcher's. It's an in- nocent red leather case with a bottle of oily remover and, polish and when the bottles are removed, presto, it's a cigaret case . . . al by Peggy Sage and all for $1.50. Then there are two larger kits one in black satin and the other in pin-seal leather which are just as complete as they come. * * * Rj NGINEERS, hold on to your T squares and slide-rules - the new "kerchiefs" are very precise as to angles. We saw the newest at the University Fashion Shop . . triangles and squares, silks, wools, and even gold cloth. They're striped and checked and no two alike . . . and that's a rather big order. A new note in formal wear is a heavy white crepe triangle that certainly adds that 1934 touch. And there are lots of twin sweaters too, nice and wooly.
