IT is interesting to note that bathing
i caps, designed along entirely new
lines, are taking the place of simpler
caps of rubberized cloth made all ex-
nctly alike and without any reference
to becomingness. The new caps are
of silk and many of them intended to
be worn over close-fitting rubber caps
which provide the real protection to
the hair.
A pretty and strikingly original
model is pictured here, made of taf-
feta silk. which is about as sat,sfac-
tory as any material to be had for
bathing caps and suits. Women un-
derstand now that getting down to
actual swimming and managing to
look we'll when emerging from the wa
ter are two entirely compatible things.
But the cap and the suit worn are
matter that demands serious atten-
tton.
