Wolfe is perhaps the best material for
wear on the ocean or at the seashore.
Lingerie dresses, unless you have many
of them, are useless on the ocean, for Il
short contact with salt air takes away
their freshness. Chiffon, silk and even
durable crepe de chine soon look slinky
and wrinkled I'm the salt air. But moisture
seems to go right through the open mesh
of wolfe of any kind and leave 1t looking
as fresh as ever. So the dinner dress
for the steamer might well be wolfe.
Whether it is utilized after you reach
Europe or not is a matter decided by the
amount of your clothes and the number
of your suit cases.
Your travel outfit can consist of well
fitting, rather plain suit. with crepe de
chine waist to match it. dogskin or wash
able chamois gloves. good boots. becom-
ing hat and veil and becoming neckwear
Extra waists of some sort should be car

use because they muss and wrinkle so
easily worn under Il coat. \ white crepe
de chine waist-or several of them-will
be found useful, because they do not
muss easily and can be cleaned for Il

cost 10 nave a WASH NalSt
II will often be possible to obtain the
services of a chambeImaid or some other
hotel or pension employee to clean waists

will be found useful. IL they are plainly
made and carefully washed they can be
worn without laundering.

holds good i'm everything but shoes-but

American shoes are coming into fashion

A NEW style of veil has appeared. 1t
\ is accordion plated, and is made
in a number of styles to drape the
picture hat, the tOque and the motor
turban. This veil has number of
practical points. 1t is easy of adjust
ment, as it clings to the edge OF the
hat and follows the outlines of face
and neck and can be conveniently
rolled up and carried about in hand
bag for an indefinite length of time
without being mussed.
The material may be either net or
chiffon, but soft chiffon is the most
satisfactory. If intended for motor
wear, have the plaits lengthwise, so
that when the ends are loosened the
plaits will spring back to the top of
the brim in their natural folds. The
selvage forms the top and bottom finish
and hens are necessary only In the
back. A p,ait three-eighths of an inch
deep is a good size. Consult platter
