VTOU can always. if you use
little commonsense in the mat
ter, Judge people pretty well by
the clothes they wear. Without
doubt, the psychology of clothes is a
thing to be reckoned with in the
business world. Not only do others
Judge us, more or less, by what we
wear. but We ourselves are in
fluenced by the matter. The feel
ing that we are properly clad gives
us a confidence and an air of assur-
ance that is completely lacking un-
der other circumstances, and for
that reason alone we should always
be carefully dressed. Business and
professional men feel that perfect
tailoring is ar absolute essential. to
say nothing of correct style and su-
perior quality. Perhaps that is why
so many of them go to McFalPs for
their suits since the new clothing
department has opened. Isn't it
likely?

The New Clothes

Taffeta is very fashionable this year both for day and evening wear.
 Summer frocks are going to be made of every conceivable material. but first favorites are the "oId-time' ones, such as dotted swiss, dimity, calico, gingham, prints and voile. 4 decidedly smart frock is of printed vone in blue cheeks, which are filled with alternating horizontal and verti- cal lines. These series of broken lines give a very soft color effect. The skirt was made with three deep tucks and a wide hem. The collar and cuffs made of white organdy and edged with clUny lace. The same eff feet may be obtained in pink.
 Pongees have taken a new lease of activity of late. Demand has in creased, with rather more call for the natural than any other. Some white is wanted, but natural is by far the most wanted.
 Advance novelties in fabrics and braids for use for the fall season in clude all sorts of wool braids from one to two inches in width. The main portion of the braid is a knit ted or braided effect, with an uncut fringe or loops of the wool extending from the edge. There are many eff fects in these braids, and the fringe idea seems to prevail even for the new season.

STATE GIRLS TO
 HOLD CONVENTION

Delegates from each of the four teen girls clubs located in different Connecticut cities will meet at Wat erbury for two-day convention, May 10 and II, when the Connect- cut League of Women Workers will be organized.
 Sessions of the convention will be held in Leavenworth hall. The Wat erbury Girls club which has 400 members and a splendid big club house, will entertain the delegates.
 Miss Lida V. Curtis, state organiz- ing secretary, has charge of plans for the convention. She looks for an enthusiastic group of delegates who will organize the state league with dispatch. Among those interested in the state league are Mrs. Julius Maltby, Miss Alice Kingsbury, Mrs. Karl Winter and Mrs. John Goss of Waterbury.
 The Connecticut league will be fed erated in the National League of Women Workers with the six State leagues already included. The State leagues maintain vacation houses, at which girls may spend their summer holidays at small expense. They plan hikes and entertainments and maintain a bureau of advice and in formtion on all club activities. The state leagues also employ a staff of secretaries to start clubs in new com munities.
 The National League of Women Workers holds a biennial convention in different cities. It publishes a monthly magazine, The Club Work CT, and employs a national staff of organizing secretaries to form clubs in additional states. The National League is one of four important or ganizations working for recreation for girls in America. The national president is Mrs. Bernard T. Pollak of New York. Headquarters are at S5 East SOth street, New York.
