CLOTHES FOR STOUT WOMEN
Black, Navy Blue and All Extremely
Dark Shades Will Attract
Less Attention.

While the slender women may Oc-
casiOnally indulge in bargain cOrSetS,
a purchase of this kind with its hap
hazard fit is TO be avoided by the
woman inclining toward stouness, for
it is by means of a properly con-
structed and properly adjusted corset
that the figure foundation is made.
The choice of fabrics for gowns is
also very important when a slender
appearance is desired. There are GER
tain materials and colors that have q
tendency to magnify the figure, while
others have the opposite effect. Rough
surfaces should be avoided by large
women. Brilliant cOlOrs can be used
successfully only in very small touches.
Certain colors are generally known to
apparently diminish size, among them
being black. navy blue and all the eX-
tremely dark shades, while white and
the light colors are apt to be ex-
pansive.
Stripes cut off the width and empha-
size the length. but woman even
verging on stOutneSS cannot consider a
plaid. Fabrics woven or printed in
large figures are not TO be thought of.
although small figures may be con
sidered A one-cOlOr scheme OF dress
ing is good for the stout woman. In
dress designs long ones should be cul.
tivated. rs they break up the width
OF the figure. Horizontal or cross lines
should be studiously avoided. TUNES
and draperies are good if they are
long TightneSs is a mistake. A gown
that is tight fitting will attract atten-
ton to size The lines should be easy,
no compression in one place to cause
bulge in another, for flesh must go
somewhere. Plain girdles and narrow
crushed girdles may be used with one
or two narrow sash ends.
Soft. indefinite colors suit an older
v oman. She should avoid bright, harsh
shades that call for a young, fresh
complexion on the one hand. and the
drab tones and duh blacks that sug-
gest the old lady on the other hand
Pearl. silver. oySter-gray, clematis
wiStaria. panSy color and black and
white are the hest cOlOrs for her. For
street suits older women should KEEP
pretty close TO very dark blues, blacks
and dark graNS.

May. but his car could not be com
pleted in time TO enter competition.

Vail was but a youth when he
stamped himself as a star driver i'm
the Metropolitan cup race at Sleeps
head Bay in 1916. His first trip to
the Indianapolis track was in 1919.
and he placed fourth at the wheel OF
a Hudson.
He won his spurs in the racing
game in the closing weeks OF the 1915
season, but established a whirlwind
clip the following year.
Vail is a heady, unassuming driver
and YOU would hardly know he was
about the race course if you waited
for him to speak. But he usually
makes his presence known by heady,
consistent driving.
