Editors Notei Penelope Cross-ley is an English schoolgirl, just 16, who returned to England a few months ago after spending three years in the United States. With her mother and younger brother and sister she spent most of her time in Washington, D.

and some of her holidays In Chicago. The following story was written expressly for AP Features. By PENELOPE CROSSLEY BRIDGENORTH, SHROP-SHIRE In practically every way America is far more advanced in her modern conveniences than England. She can design kitchens, bathrooms, dressings rooms to absolute perfection in a tiny space. In her kitchens she has such devices as dishwashers and cashing machines which make America a labor saving country.

The only drawback about these things is that pretty nearly everything that America makes never lasts. It is only made for a year or two and then it gives out. When the average American woman buys a dress she carries it through to the last detail, while the English woman usually has no thought about the fun of collecting an ensemble. The thing that I love about American women is that they wear gay and attractive things in their hair, such as birds and ribbons and often they experiment with their hairdos so that one never seems to get tired of them. I think Americans can be summed up as "all dressed up and somewhere to go.

The spontaneous hospitality shown to complete strangers struck me at once and 'made me admire and love the Americans. These wonderful people take you into their homes, feed you, clothe you, and give you everything that makes life comfortable. The English on. the whole ar. slower in the beginning but they are deep in the endurance of friendships.

One of the things I am sure drives every American mother crazy is the constant telephoning by her children to their companions who have been together all day and after their separation rush to the telephone to continue their conversation and can only be dragged away by a radio program which cannot be missed as it is an important subject for conversation the following day. American life is arranged for living in groups; English life is broken up into families. I know that one of the first things my mother, brother and I will do the minute we go back to the United States is to visit the corner drug store and have a chocolate milk shake. English girls are giggly and "childish compared with Americans of their own age. They do not begin their social life until they leave school and often when they meet a man they cannot entertain him or are thrown off their balance by unexpected admiration.

Americans are used to this and are not gauche because their social life has gone parallel with their school life. They can talk easily with men at 16, while their English sisters are still shy school girls. Yet the all-round scheme of studies in an English school does ultimately deepen the mind, I think. The studies are kept parallel until a choice is made in the higher forms. Not being allowed to go out with boys until they are 17, the English are school girls until they leave, whereas American girls have school life in the term and a whirl in the vacation.

They have their amusements planned for them more, and seem therefore to lack thw resourcefulness of making their own amusements which English girls Jo very successfully. After four years of American schooling, from 12 to 16, I found on coming back that English boarding school life seemed restricted and isolated from the world. My old classmates had left me behind in my studies by one year and I found the work much stiffer. I am deeply grateful for my American schooling, but I am genuinely glad to be back in England, for I want to link up with old friends. Dress Designers Are Thinking About Fall Styles Right Now NEW YORK While Summer challenges the city dweller to meet Its unpredictable dress problems, dress designers are thinking about Fall, and are showing the first of next seasons styles to enable store to plan now for their Fall merchandise.

Among the top designers in the dress field, the name of Louise Barnes Gallagher is well known. Her creations, just out of the de-, signing room, are richly endowed with new color tones, and styled with a keen appreciation of the feminine angle as well as a war-time clothes sense. Before discussing Fall, how- ever, a look at a New York fashion audience on a warm afternoc is timely. The Gallagher salon is not very large, this being an exclusive designing house, and the 'audience is composed, naturally, of fashion-minded women. Here are a few sketches of what they wore: Brown suits several of them were worn with bow- blouses in gay prints, or with white vestees.

Some Navy suits had striped accents. One ensemble consisted of a yellow and black striped dress with a big bow at the neckline, and a three-quarter length chartreuse coat. The hat was a black felt beret. There were several gray suits. One of these had narrow pleatings of navy and white polka dot taffeta around the revers of the jacket, to complement a polka dot Cel-anese taffeta sailor.

Black was predominantly smart, either alone or combined with i white. For example, a black shantung suit looked very smart with a black satin sailor. Black satin accessories are making an early appearance here in style centers. One guest who chose black had come from California. She was wearing a loosely fitted black wool topper with a large black mllan hat.

Her dress was a print of widely spaced daisy sprays on a black ground. Two of the guests wore novelty patterned black and white tops over black skirts. One was a large plaid gingham blouse with long sleeves; the other a small chevron like pattern in clean cut black and white contrast. Now to return to the preview of Fall clothes at Louise Barnes Gallaghers. Her use of color was warm, glowing an ddefined.

There were many unusual browns from cinnamon to dark mahogany; and against th'se, a range of purplish and inky blues, periwinkle and icy lavender, appeared in a blouse, a lining or a dress. Some 'Vivid green, gold and rosy reds also shared the picture with black. Flared peplum waistlines were frequently shown in one-piece and new versions of the famous Gallagher tunic, of Russian inspiration, gave importance to coat dresses. Padded shoulders and firm slim lines otherwise predominated. Fur lapels, fur loops, satin pleatings, embroidered, knitted and novelty fabrics, were applied with restraint, or gave smart accent.

But wholly without restrant was the use of buttons! One can imagine this designer burning the midnight oil beset with thoughts of marching solders endless lines of them and suddenly feeling the outlet for this pent up picture In rows and rows of little flat butons which march up and down so many of her dresses in various line formations. Some beautiful, large, face framing fur collars of fox or longhaired furs, on wool coats made with dresses to match, are reminiscent of other years. Flat Persian revers and satin revers were other features. DESTROY THOSE MOTHS This year the use of moth de etructive agencies and preventives to guard against this voracious insect is far exceeding other, seasons, we are told. The menace is no greater than it is every year, but the desire to preserve is becoming a real one, end women who in the past have given little thought to methods of packing away their Winter clothes, Sre asking for expert advice.

Looking into the general situa tion regarding the care of stored clothing reveals a number of facts hot generally recognized. For example, the use of camphor flakes snd vaporous products is not enough. Not only the clothing, but the container, closet or trunk I into which articles are packed must be scrupulously cleaned first, i end it is often recommended that I it also be sprayed. One such liquid when sprayed forms i i. frosty surface said to be an ex tellent moth preventive.

You Ipray your garments before pack-! i Ing, and also spray the closet or container so as to reach all the comers, then close it as tightly as possible and keep it closed for the Juration of the Summer. I Another factor to consider before packing is the kind of fabric Miss Lucille LeStrange, above, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John LeStrange, Pleasant Mount, was married Saturday, June 24, to George Garrick, Forest City, son of Mrs. Bridget Garrick.
