The Washington herald., 1917-08-10

The dangerous days of summer are
apt to induce an amount OF relaxa-
ton that makes the necessary at
tention to health and beauty dificult
at times. We Of the temperate cli-
mate are unaccustomed to the torrid
waves that sometimes visit us. and
through indiscretions in diet and hy-
gienic behavior in hundred ways. we
bring about conditions that might
have been easily avoided with a little
thought.
1t is a well-established scientific fact.
borne out by our governmental in
vestigations in the Philippines. that
white clothing is the coolest that can
be worn. 1t has been found that
white fabric not only does not absorb
heat-rays. but that 1t defects them.
For instance, the temperature under
white material Is several degrees less
than above it. and under other ma
terials 1t is higher than that above
it-especially is this true of black,
which absorbs and retains heat.
Now, here is a fact to be remem-
bered. The body is cooler in summer
when swathed in white than II is
when not not covered at all. Civilized
beings who live in torrid climates
know this and dress accordingly. Why
should we not take advantage of this
scientific truth and adapt ourselves
to 1t? 1t is especially important in
the matter of headgear and one should
protect the body as far as possible
from the suns rays with white para
soils.
Business women should be especially
careful in the matter of dress-from
a hygienic point of view-during the
heated term. II white is too perisha-
bic and too conspicuous for the every
day working-woman. gray. which
holds the second place to white, and
pale shades OF tan. should be substi-
tuted. In emphasizing the great value
of white wash-silks for summer wear,
I am merely stating what everyone
knows. 1t has the added ADVANTAGE
of being easily iaundered. and is uni
versally becoming-that is, it may be
worn effectively by all ages and both
sexes.
Happily for US. the stiff, starched
garments modish some years ago,
have been laid aside for the cooler,
softer materials. It is criminal TO
dress children. more particularly in
hot weather, in clothing that is al
most impervious TO air and that i'm
pedes freedom of movement. The
clothing of children should inyaria bly,
be white and as soft and scant as
possible.
Greater attention 10 detail and the
utmost care IN grooming the body
is, IL anything. more necessary in
warm weather than at any other sea
son Of the year. 1t is only too true
that many wonderland men, too-neg-
