THE STAND-OFF collar stands away from the neck making a frame for the soulders.

North American women are going to have to slim down to fit into the new spring clothes. No more voluminous skirts and crinolines will conceal that hipline spread. The course of spring fashion is straight and narrow, constructed to reveal every line of the feminine figure, divine or otherwise. THIS WEEK about 150 fashion editors look over the new collections, in that hectic semi-annual shindig known as National Press Week.

Although the slender silhouette has been on the way for the last year, it has become a fashion "must" this season. As one buyer puts it: "The straight, narrow line 'has moved from the better-dress salon into the volume department." From all indications, full skirts will be worn next spring only by the teen-agers and young juniors, except for after-five costumes, which still may have skirts as full as you like. SINCE skirts are straight and slim, fashion interest centres above the belt this season, with all kinds of innovations in sleeves and neck lines. The dropped dolman-type sleeve is a favorite in both coats and dresses, giving a smooth, rounded line to the shoulders and width at the elbow line. Necklines do all kinds of tricks, from cowl drapes to stand-out collars known variously as the fence," the "frame" or the "por trait collar.

Some of the more extreme suits hpve collars that droop down and away from the neck in back. Saskatchewan Girls Honored By Guides TORONTO (CP) The Cana dian Council of the Girl Guides Association announced Tuesday that, it has awarded its Gilt Cross for bravery to two Saskatchewan Guides.

First Woman Acts On Ontario Jury WINDSOR.

Ont. (CP) The jury career of Mrs. Charles Smith was brief, but it was enough to credit her as Ontario's first woman juror. She appeared in Essex county courthouse Monday and answered her name when it was called. She spent only a few minutes in the jury box and then the case was postponed.

Although Mrs. Smith was call- ed for a rountv court sitting, it is! expected most counties will waif for the opening of the Supreme Court assizes Jan. 12 before calling on their womenfolk. Under an amendment to the Ontario Jurors Act, this year women are admitted as Jurors. Mrs.

Smith was almost excluded several times when court officials and lawyers stumbled over the new phrase: "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury." CAMERA CLUB The Y.W.C.A.

THE DIRECTORS of the association's homes say there would he no dental decay in the orphans and abandoned children in their care if their mothers had had "rational and balanced nutrition" before the babies' birth, and if the children could be completely protected from contamination by the detrimental dietary habits of their school mates and the community generally." The hit at the community is justified by the fact that Australians have about the worst teeth in the world. Dentists say the most im mediate cause is the excess of carbohydrates in Australians' diet too much sugar, white bread, biscuits and sweets and not enough fruit or Vegetables. Added to this, they say, is a serious shortage of dentists. Photo Contest Planned To Illustrate V.O.N.

Bilingual Convent High School Opened In Toronto By Nuns TORONTO (CP A bilingual convent high school, first of its kind in this area, has been opened hy the Sisters of Notre Dame. The sisters, who have run a bilingual grade school here for many years, decided to start the convent high school after watching children from their grade school go to public high schools and apparently forget all the French they had learned. "After working with them for so many years, it was hard for us to see the students lose the use of their French so quickly," said one of the supervising sis-tprs of the order which Marguerite Bourgeoys founded in Montreal 300 years ago under charter from King Louis XIV of France.

The school has an enrollment of 27. including two boys. There are only two full-time resident students Helen Pinet. 17. of Three Rivers, and Blanche Belcourt, 14.

of Randolph, near Penetanguishene, Ont. Students will take Ontario department of education examinations in F.nglish or French. They will study composition, grammar, literature and history in both languages. Subjects such as mathematics and science will he taught in one language and reviewed in the other.
