THE WELL DRESSED GIRL
Grooming, Consisting Principally of
Personal Cleanliness and Harmo-
nizing Shoes Important.

Every girl should endeavor to be
well dressed. This does not demand
the purchase of an abundance of
clothes of the latest fashion, says
Miss Addie Root of the extension
service of the University of Missouri
College of Agriculture. Large sums
of money may be spent on the ward
robe and the result be an absolute
failure.
In order to be well dressed one must
be well groomed, which means first
of all, perfect personal cleanliness
The hair should be clean, well brushed
and combed in style suited to the
age of the girl. If hair ribbons ar
used they should be clean and pressed
and of a color which will harmon:ze
with the dress. Black hair ribbons
for general wear are always in good
taste. Teeth should be brushed, and
nails trimmed and clean. Shoes and
stockings should be of one color

Woolen embroidery is one of the
extremely good looking trimmings
The embroidery is usually in some
rich contrasting color and adds much
spirit to a plain dark dress. But it
is not the easiest thing in the world
to work in wool. To help you in
this respect there is wool embroidery
on Il thin net foundation that can be
applied to the place desired with ex-
actly the same good result that you
would get if yon worked the stitches
directly on the fabric.
