An apparel message
f r o m Goodyear's
DUNG women of J-Hop proclivities, with
a desire to view smart evening attire, should
hie themselves to Goodyear's. They will
find the joyous lilt of dance music echoed
in lovely gowns, the spirit of youth reflected
with all its freshness and charm.
And, vastly essential to the perfect toute ensemble, they
will find the details of formal apparel -exquisite, correct.
Should purses hint discretion ever so slightly, the greater
should be their haste. For Goodyear exclusiveness entirely
belies actual prices, which are remarkably low.
What's under
-the gown is quite as impor-
tant as the gown itself. That

Gowns Delightfully

In color and silhouette
OWNS are developed from a variety of
fabrics. Glittering sequins, jewel-lik
in their colorings, crisp taffetas, lustrous
satins and velvets, cloth of silver and chif-
fon crepe-all lend their beauty to make
this a season of brilliant evening wear.
There is every color-that is, every color
that fashion sponsors. Very many, in this
case.
When the originality of design and the
worth of fabric and workmanship are con-
sidered, prices seem unduly moderate.
