Alright, so you were soaked at the
game yesterday. Perhaps, at the mo-
ment you feel that you could never
work up enthusiasm for any kind of
a coat except the newest model ren-
dered in pure rubber with seams
caulked with resin.
But the time is coming-and you
can hardly disagree with this, be-
cause winter always has come-when
the dearest thing to your heart will
be the shortest path to a warm fur,
coat.
This one is warm, but for you with
an eye to style it offers more than
mere protection from zero weather.
There's beauty in the perfectly-
matched and dyed muskrat skins'
which so 'perfectly simulate ming
that a very close examination is nec-
essary to tell the difference. There's
grace in the softly draped sleeves
whose huge dolman armhole is in the
fashion picture to stay-and in every,
type of women's outer garments.
Finally, ther's a simplicity and
charm about the tiny round collar
whose curving line goes direct, in
the front, to a single carved. antique,
button.;
Or, in short, this is the coat for you
-for winter.

By JEAN GILMER
One big jump right from college
into the midst of a career-that's
what Vogue's sixth annual Prix De
Paris contest is offering this year to
college seniors who have a flair for
writing combined with an accurate
eye for fashion.
Once again this fashion magazine
is offering a year's job on the New
York staff as first prize, inasmuch as
the war seems to have rendered the
original Paris assignment slightly out
of the question.
A desk of her own for at least six
months' work and more if she makes
good, of course, is the award awaiting
the second prize winner, while the
five best articles submitted during
the course of the contest will be paid
for and printed in Vogue.
For anyone who is interested in
magazine work, fashion reporting or
feature writing, this is an opportunity
to gain experience and prestige in
holding down an editorial job that is
almost bound to lead to bigger and
better things.
Prix de Paris Contest
The Prix de Paris contest, con-
sisting of four quizzes that will appear
in Vogue, is open to seniors in ac-
credited colleges and universities.
When these are passed successfully
the contestants are eligible to write
a short article in competition for the
prizes.
Of course -there are only seven
major awards, but those who receive
Honorable Mention and whose quiz
answers show outstanding promise
are recommended to leading depart-
ment stores and magazines on the
look-out for new talent.
Of the.81 prize winners since 1936
(including Honorable Mentions), over
60 are now embarked on successful
and exciting careers, Vogue reports.
Each' 6f the four quizzes will offer
a choice of four ,out of eight ques-
tions to. answer-half on fashion and
half on such'topics as~music, art, and
literature. The first quiz will appear
in the Nov.,1 issue and will be based
on the two. issues published in Oct-
ober. Aiswers, as well as entrance
blanks must 'be submitted by Nov.
20.
Originality Important
Papers will be judged by the edi-
tors o'n (a) clear and vivid writing,
(b) originality ofr ideas, (c) fashion
knowledge, and (d) general infor-
mation.. All quiz 'answers must be
typewritten in double space on one
side of the paper, with the name and
college of 'the contestant appearing
on every' page. . ..
Those who are eligible to write an
article, not to exceed 1500 words, will

be notified in April, while the final of songs which Michigan men and
women have always sung has been
winners will be announced in Junewomed hae itwasasung laedn

It's doubtful if isolationists will
admit that the present war can offer
anything to the great American pub-
lic. But the fashion world has reason
to differ; everything from "America
First" to "Bundles For Britain" has
furnished inspiration to the fashion
capitals.1
This time, it's the R.A.F. coat which
appears as a definite influence to
silhouette trends of ,the season. The
coat, designed to be an exact imita-

many words dozens of times for your
courses-i-and with no hope for any-
thing better than a C. This has
something solid to offer.

blanks and complete rules, consult

cupational Information in Mason

England's flyers wear, is a bulky.
formless little number which, unflat-

smooth addition to the tall, slim,

The coat is a three-quarter length

teddy-bear fur fabric on one side and
gabardine, available in different
shades on the 'reverse side.
