FASHION SHOW FASHION AT ITS BEST Unlike the typical depart- ment store fashion show of the States, usually held under the auspices of some charitable organization and offering as a door prize an all expense seven day trip to sunny Bermuda, ours was held onboard the Cascade while at anchor in Cannes, France. To display the latest in French fashions, a number of lovely young French girls paraded the boatdeck before the eyes of gaping sailors, that they might decide which garments would look best on the girl back home , and choose accordingly. But whether the sailors decided to buy or not, it was an evening well spent. ONLY 12.95 COMPLETE WITH C EST MAGNIFIQUE! EH ' LACEY?

KIDS, KAKE, KREAM AND KINDNESS The following is a translation of an article published in the newspaper La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno, Bori, Italy dated 20 Sept. 1956 and forwarded to the CASCADE by the U.S. Naval Attache in Rome. 200 children invited for lunch on board an Ameri- can vessel The CO. of the parent ship CASCADE , Cap- tain Robertson, has invit- ed for lunch on board, 200 children. This will take place next Saturday 22 Oct. The children are all war orphans of the region, their families are very poor and some of them stay at orphan institutes. Captain Robertson will give them some gifts and afterwards they will enjoy a film show. The lunch will begin at 1330. The kind initiative of the CASCADE Com- manding Officer will be very welcomed by the Taranto population and with much gratitude that day is expected by those children who will enjoy it and also by their familes.
