ing in the morning. The only thing
particularly distressing in the mak-
up is the variety which comes off on
slight provocation or the male es-
cort, depending on whether the prov-
ocation or the escort is nearer at
the time.
Seriously, lipstick that comes off
on clothes can be very annoying at
times. Short women dancing with tall
men should take especial precautions
not to nuzzzle up a a nice starched
shirt front or a soft and fluffy tie.
And now we come to the eyebrows,
which have more to do with the ex-
pression than any other thing. If you
must make a thin, tiny line out of
them, for goodness' sake don't arch
them so high that you have a per-
petual expression of surprise. One of
the greatest American tragedies is
the confusion which results when one
of these surprised-looking females
sinks down into the depths of a booth
in one of the local tea-establishments
and sighs something about being
bored.
Hastened Finis
And now a message to all the
ladies: An assignment such as this is
always a severe trial to a Mere Man.
So do not leap five (5) feet (ft.) into
the air if you are at all touched by
this little message. And don't take
down the old family blunderbuss and
go gunning for the writer. It won't be
the slightest use; he'llbe out of town.
ndulgent Style
Allows Glamour
In Dress a
Indulgence is the note struck by
the dress hats of the mode. One buys
that bit of fantasy in a veil or un-
usual style which spring fever de-
mands. These rare bits of millinery
permit a glamorous nature to be ex-
pressed in a subtle but convincing
manner.
Trimming is the forte of these
models for dining on campus in the
evenings, or keepng
a tea date. While the
features are unique,
these are seen on
every hat, and yet o
not five an air of a
c r e a t i on overdone.
Pillboxes are not ex-
treme in cut and
fairly demand one o
these huge circular
horse hair veils that
floats about one's
features in an intriguing way. One
mcdel has a lacquered fcathr
perched on the very top.
Large hats are coing in for their
proper treatment again, and have
new and engaging dips in their
brims. Baku and other crisp straws
are used, with ribbons attracting at-
tention to the lower side of the brim.
A clever arrangement has the band
of the shallow crown dip through
the bri mand adorn the side next the
face with a stitched bow. On these
wide brims, one often finds linings
of a complementary and lighter
shade.
Play Suits Neessary
Everyone should includ in their
wardrobe, a "play-suit." One of the
most striking of these is composed of
a white corduroy suit with a match-
ing three-quarters length coat.:Bands
of red and blue circle the coat sleeve,
red stripes decorate the shorts, and
a red and blue sailing ship adorn
the shirt. The back is low with ero>',
straps.

"One should capitalize on one's de-
ficiencies rather than try to hide
them. A tall girl should make every
effort to wear clothes and move with
graceful lines rather than be stoop-
shouldered and give an awkward and
unattractive appearance. Tall figures
always look better and are really
smart. The Amoricar hwomen has
the advantage over the European

Evening Wraps Change
Little In Appearance
The evening wrap has changed little
from previous seasons. The short
jacket is the favorite style. A new
and picturesque fashion which is
coming into popularity is the cape
which appears in all shapes, sizes,
and varieties and in almost .all fab-
rics.
