Weekly Fashion Letter By CATHERINE H. GRIEBEL. Extension Clothing Specialist 1 had a nip ot tea this afteroon at a place where I hoped o pick up something in the way r clothing information, but. ns « often the case, the sort of inormatlon I got was quite diffrom what I'd expected it At the next table' sat three decidedly plump ladies and couldn't help but overhear their conversation ■I'm all worn out."' complained otie of them as *be tipped the maple syrup jug over a plMrful of well-buttered waffles. "I Just haven't accomplished a thing and I'm In despair." Questioned by her friends she revealed the fact that It was a gown—-or lack of one—that was causing her mental anguM). vaw lovely things but none my slxe. Every single design 1 liked was for a small woJust then such a woman stepped briskly hy theli laWo and my neighbor nudged hot friend knowingly. 'There—that's exactly whst I want.” and the glare in her eyes boded no good to I be sromaa who had obtained the coveted de-

sign.

All the while I was drinking my tea I though of this, and, then and there. 1 decided to write you about It for there seem to be many women who feel that there la a personal

Th- small > all-over designs are worn as I easily as plain fabric even by th« tiny woman: and when It comes to selecting a print for the very large woman- if she insists on having one—I'd advise a small j Pattern too. Th<- small woman j might wear a gayer print than her larger sister, but you will find that the large designs shown are too pronounced to Ik- worn by anyone whose figure is not beyond reproach. Then. too. ratist have a real knack In w Ing clothes to dare choose the; large patterns and brilliant;

the design they wish in a size -

that suits their flgures.

If tbe heavier women would Just stop to think, it seems as if they must real lie that not onl) the design, but the cut oi a garment varies with site. Look over any pattern book and you will find that there is a site limit to the designs offered you. for instance, slxe 14 to 20 yearn or size 34 inch to 42 Inches sad then 42 Inch to SS inches. And when you shop for readymade clothes fhere are the same limits. It is not that the designers and makers of patlernand frocks wish lo show any partla'lty to the afender woman: It ts that In order to provide a suitable garment for the woman who is large, they must mak» a pattern that will trke care of her extra flesh and a design that lets in fullness where it Is needed and suggests the length

of line desirable.

1 hare heard that the French drawmak.-rs do not create designs for large woman. They are concerned only with the ''perfect 35"—or. more than likely, the size that a sixlcen-year-old girl can wear—and their whole effort goes Into the carrying out of an artistic Idva. A new silhouette may absorb them or a variation of the twopiece frock. It might be a wonderful sleeve to startle the fashion world or a clever cape arrangement to tempt milady and there you are.
