Light Colors Tend to Make
Persons Look Larger.

(Prepared by the United States department
OF Agricultural
The woman with a medium stout
figure needs to give special attention
to the lines of the light-colored dresses
for summer wear. Light colors more
than dark ones tend to make persons
look larger than they really are. Ju-
dicious designing of each dress, how
ever, will overcome this difficulty to
a large extent.
Up and down lines, which may be
formed in a number of ways, help to
reduce the apparent width of the fig
ure. Dresses should be made moder-
ately loose, for tightness emphasizes
the curves and makes n appear
larger. Set-in sleeves, somewhat loose,
and of full length, look well and are
comfortable. Little or no trimming
should be used because it will give a
broadening effect If attention is di-
rected to the arms. If trimming is
used, let it follow the length of the
arm. The belt should never be placed
so as to make the upper portion of the
dress the same length as the part
from the hips to the hem, and it
should always be made of the same
material as the dress so that the line
will not be conspicuous. Narrow belts
are also better than extremely wide
ones.
These points are applied to the cool
summer dress illustrated. 1t was de-
signed by specialists of the bureau of
home economies for a tall, medium
stout woman The material is printed
green-and-white wolfe, trimmed with
plain green wolfe. Long lines are
given by the collar, which forms the
two revers, bound in plain green. 1t
is extended into two jabots falling
to the bottom of the skirt. The bind

CEDAR CHESTS PROTECTION
AGAINST MOTHS

Experiments conducted by the
United States Department of Agricul.
ture have demonstrated the value OF
chests made of red cedar, Juniperus
~virginiana. However, to be effective
these chests must contain in the body
proper at least 20 per cent of three
quarter inch red cedar lumber. The
attention of the public is called to the
fact that chests made of neutral woods
lined with a red cedar veneer are not
genuine red cedar chests and cannot
be depended upon to kill clothes
moths. Experiments have proved that
clothes moths car develop from the
egg, through the worm or larval stage,
to the adult moth in chests lined with
red cedar eneer. They cannot do
this in genuine red cedar chests that
are in good condition.

are made of organdie this season.
1t is a fact, to be chic n must
dress utterly feminine this summer,
indulging in frillS and furbelows and
all things lovely which make lovely
women look loveIier. Wherefore it
follows that that which constitutes
comely raiment for the June brides
maid is typical of what will be worn
during the coming months by all Won
en- of fashion at garden parties and
other of midsummer's happy events.
About the most interesting thing to
learn concerning modern frocks for
modern bridesmaids and the 1923 sum-
mer girl is that skirts are longer, yes,
longer, and waistlines are higher. Not
that hemlines are heightened all
around in stereotyped fashion, not at
all. This l%engthening process is done
with greatest artistry. If there is
such a thing as temperamental hem
lines, then they are "having their
day" right now.
More about bridesmaids frocks and
others-it takes yards and yards and
yards of material for their making,
for "tres bouffant" is the call Of the
mode. And concerning lace. Never
such a lace season as this. Very, very
often it is combined with chiffon, i'm
some such enhancing way as here
pictured. In this instance not only
is 1t artfully inset with the skirt but
it forms that most voguish item-the
lace cape. Most of the dainty trans
parent frocks for summer are COM
plemented with either a matching
cape or a cape of exquisite lace.
And the ribbon-trimmed fine hair
hail 1t is just such as this modish
bridesmaid should be wearing.
