Another is remodeling an old styled black coat into a sport jacket. Many of the students are making variations of the new short coat. Geared to wartime demands, the course has been arranged to include many phases of sewing and care of clothes for the personal advantage of the students as well as work for the Red Cross, Vassar hospital and the Poughkeepsie Day Nursery.

The classes, which are planned in units. are electives except for the Home Economics girls. In the class sessions they learn all the fundamentals of good little things which take away that "homemade look." learna how to make such things pockets (with one variation popular now. the Victory pocket which is V- shaped), welt pockets, bound openings, all sorts of plackets, such as the plackets cut on plackets, plackets with zippers, Victory plackets, alteration of 'patterns to lengthen sleeves, widen 8 skirt, square a shoulder, etc. These and the other rudiments of good dressmaking are taught to the students.

Under careful supervision, the course is not a "snap." Students use two excellent books, "Dressmaking Made Easy," and "Your Clothes and Personality," Mildred Graves Ryan. They have regular assignments, and garments must be completed within a certain period. The course is concluded with an examination which includes both actual sewing and written explanations. Conservation Points One of the first lessons in the class is learning to make a notched-collar dickey from one of dad's shirts. This is only one of the many conservation points which are taught.

In one of the units, the work was devoted to I conservation and remodeling of clothing, and results were truly amazing! One girl made a smart striped housecoat from an, old bedspread. Another made an attractive peasant skirt from a 52 inch flowered tablecloth with enough material left over to trim a blouse. Several of the pupils made skirts from their fathers' trousers. Although a tricky procedure, this method of conservation results in attractive, long-wearing skirts. The skirts can be made gored or with pleats and, if necessary, can be widened.

Other projects in the conservation program included slippers knitted unraveled sweaters. mittens from an old fur coat, a child's dress from curtains, a boy's shirt cut down from a man's shirt, pillow cases made from flour bags, a boy's bathrobe made from two small and one large terry cloth towels. An outstanding example in conservation is seen in the attractive dirndl which. was made from four bleached flour bags and appliqued with apples. This dress was awarded honorable mention in a recent state-wide DAR homemakers contest.

Another of the units is composed of special work done by the classes for Red Cross, Vassar hospital and the Poughkeepsie Day Nursery. For the Red Cross, the girls have made 30 cotton and flannel shirts, well tailored with matching 'stripes in the plaids. The material for these shirts was bought with funds of the High school Junior Red Cross. There were 25 blue and navy wool coats, with sporty plaid linings made also for the Red Cross in. the classes.

Since two of the students' fathers are tailors, the coats were all professionally pressed before they were sent to the Red Cross. This Red Cross work, helps to entitle the girls to the High school Victory corps emblem. In the classes. girls have made several crib sheets, and bed pan covers for Vassar hospital. They have also recently completed two dozen laundry bags and two dozen cot.

sheets for the Poughkeepsie Day Nursery, and have made Red Cross Kit bags. Make Slacks, Pajamas The girls, during. their training. make either pajamas or slacks and now one group is working on slacks in denin! As an added feature, with their remaining material, they will make "Victory Aprons" with three deep pockets to hold garden implements and appliqued appropriately with colorful vegetables. For the course, also, the girls are all required to make a woolen skirt.

One remarkable skirt Was made from one yard of material. In all of these classes, the pupils continually assimulate the finer points of sewing. They are taught to shrink their material first. to stayline all pieces of their pattern to keep it from stretching. to cleanstitch raw edges, and proper pressing.

Along with these fundamentals, the girls learn simple and helpful hints in the -care of removing stains. storing as stuffing sweaters with moth flakes in large glass jars tightly closed). They are also told to store the new aralac like wool. and other such factors in the care of clothes. They learn much about textiles, and are instructed in how to tell values in clothing--the differences between, -instance, a $2.98 dress and a $25 dress.

also include instructions on mending hose runs the latchet needle, mending rubbers by cementing patches on worn spots, all types of mending holes. During, the year, the girls complete approximately seven or eight garments. They furnish their own material and at the end of their course they are well versed in the many phases of dressmaking- and, tailoring. The classes are under the direction of Mrs. Joseph.

Coat Tale At left is a Persian lamb coat that has seen better days. Center, HARRY J.

TREU demonstrates how worn spots are cut out, new skins put in. Right is the finished product- -same coat after being repaired, restyled. BY DOROTHY ROE AP Fashion Editor Stop, Mrs. Jones! Don't throw that old fur coat in the ash can. It's your duty to conserve, you know.

Yes. I know it has holes in it as big AS those in a Zero that has tangled with P-40. What if you have worn it for ten we years? Maybe it's good for ten more. Now. don't argue, Mrs.

Jones. Right about now. when you are getting ready to send your furs to storage, is a good time to find out about the miracles that can be done in remodelling and rejuvenating old fur coats. You see, I've just been talking to gentleman who is very sad when thinks about the thousands of fur coats at present furnishing meals for moths in attic trunks, just because their owners think they are too out-of-date or too worn for any use. His name is Harry J.

Treu, and he can wax as lyrical over furs as some men can over a symphony. Says Mr. Treu, almost any coat can be repaired and brought up-todate if an expert goes to work on it. You can do things with furs that would be impossible with cloth points out- piecing, for If you had a big hole in a cloth coat you'd just about have to give it up for lost. But a good furrier can piece your old fur coat up with -and when he's through you'll never be able to tell where the piecing took place.

Careful matching does the trick. If your coat is simply too far gone for restyling, Mr. Treu has another bright -you can have it cut up made into a smashing big muff, or a jacket, or trimming for a fur coat or suit. Beatrice M. Simms Bride Of Petty Officer Upright Bride Upright daughter of Mrs.

Grace at 3 o'clock Friday afterGerald Martyn Upright, and Mrs. George Upright, place in the Chancel of St. the Rev. Roland J. Bunten, rector, officiating.

Petty Officer Upright was graduated in 1937 from Staatsburg High school and from Krissler Commercial school in this city.

He has been in the service of the Coast Guard for approximately 14. months but prior to his enlistment he was employed in the offices of the DeLaval And if your coat is still good, and doesn't need either repairing or restyling, you'd better take care of it, says this fur fancier. Here are some sound bits of advice he offers: DON'T let anybody dry-clean your coat by the ordinary methods. Send it to a furrier for cleaning and glazing. DON'T put your fur coat near radiator to dry, after you've been out in the rain.

Hang it on a padded hanger, in a room where there is free circulation of air, at normal room temperature. DON'T practice strap-hanging with your fur coat buttoned. DO send your furs to storage early this year, in care of a reliable furrier, who knows just how to care for it. Take care of your furs, advises Mr. Treu, and your furs will take care of you.
