be sleeveless. There is something
rather gypsyish about beach costume
of this sort, striking an interesting con-
trast to the new beach costume Of q
truly nautical aspect.
There are the new, very wide skirt
like pajamas and the COB type Of
trousers that are not so full, yet are
decidedly wide below the knees. There
are long navy blue pajamas Of this sort,
which may be worn with hip-length
coats Of nautical aspect. Brass but
tons mag hold the trousers at the hips
on either side and q double row of
brass buttons may ornament the front
of the jacket
Some Of the new silk or cretonne
beach jackets and wraps are lined with
terry cloth or turkish toweling. Monks
cloth is used for some of the new beach
wraps. This is a good suggestion for
the girl who wants to make her own
and who appreciates the fact that
monks cloth, or even the coarser friar's
cloth, may be bought for low price In
the upholstery departments.
For the beach or general sports
wear there are straight hip lengch
jackets Of bright blazer striped flannel.

ct ET'S 60 in the house. There is SC
~ little to do outdoors" There Is
some one at every Summer house party
who makes some such comment when
the hostess Is trying to give her city
guests an opportunity to appreciate the
sweetness and quiet of the country
setting.

in the garden" some one says. AFTER

troop indoors in spite of the hostess
mild protests.
So long as there Is tennis or golf
swimming or riding-the conventional
sort of outdoor sports-to occupy our
attention, we are content to linger out
of doors, but at the end of the day
when we have had enough active exer-

seems to wane. Perhaps as race we
Americans are lacking in the ability e
take our ease out from under four walls
and roof.
The ingenious hostess Is prepared fol
these indoor lovers and plans games
that can be played without too great
exertlon out of doors. Games in which
the older members Of the party car
take part with the younger. It is OF
course perfectly possible to play cards
in the garden or on the beach. There
are large cards that can be used more
easily than cards Of the usual shape
because their size gives them sufficient
weight to keep them from blowing
away. Then there are special short
legged card tables that may be set ur
on the grass or sand, 50 that players
may sit on the ground or low beach
chairs as they play. The card tables
are covered with canvas tops provided
with pockets, finished with patent slide

Real Salads.
when they say salad

DIETITIANS, when they say salads,
and doctors, too, mean a dish con-
tanning plenty Of green, uncooked
leaves. They don't mean one lettuce
leaf, or two, with BIZ pile of salmon
mayonnaise on top of It. They don't
mean o delicious mound Of chicken
salad garnished by a cup of lettuce
leaf filled with salad dressing.
These salads are all right-but they
aren't salads, from the dietitian's point
of view The knocked green, which is
the dietetic reason for salads, is re-
duced to unimportance in these rich
salads.
So when you are planning to serve
your family BEAUTIFULLY with salads,
plan TO give them plenty Off lettuce,
chicory. endive or whatever other green
you choose to serve. Don't cover It up
until 1t Is almost invisible.

light, Says The Stars Fashion
Expert, Mary Marshall.

Usually q good rule to follow Is to
choose the brightest colors for places
where the sun shines brightest and to
reduce the tones as the sunlight Is
withdrawn from the picture. Thus we
have the brightest and jazziest of col
ors on the beach, bright, but not actu-
ally vivid colors for tennis and golf,
with fairly strong pastels for afternoon,
while for evening the smartest choice
is unquestionably the very, very pale,
rather dusty pastel.

Print FrOCkS
LeadSunnner
Fashions
By Wilma La Vile

The whole world seems to
have broken into print this
summer. You can scarcely find
a woman who doesn't own at
least one printed frock and
they are good for every time
of day. Early in the spring
when fashions prophesies were
rich in the phaise of prints,
many people doubted because
prints have been worn so long.
Every prediction has been more
than fulfilled, however, and
prints are undoubtedly the lead
ing summer fashion, especially
for afternoons.
You've heard the rules for
smartness many times over,
and they are still the same.
Prints for afternoon are still
large and Splashy. Most OF
them are in natural floral col
ors and patterns. Their grounds
are light or dark, many Of
them in the seasons loveheSt
pastelS. They are made on the
beautifully fitted lines that give
a woman so much grace,
dignity and SophiStications
Hemlines are q deciding feo'
tor in the SmartneSS OF your
summer chiffons. If the occa-
sion is formal. they should be
really long and a long skirt
is permissible even for a semi
formal affair, which makes
your frock wearable for many
occasions. HemlineS are best
when they are even Though on
chiffons they may be longer
in the back than the front and
slightly irregular.
We are Sketching two chit.
fons that are typical Of the
most popular styles. One has
a jacket and one has q cape.
They may both do as well for
informal evening wear. We
thought their patterns were
particularly lovely as well as
their lines.
If you are not convinced Of
the fashion significance Of
chiffon for afternoon, just re-
member that Paris wears it as
enthusiastically as America and
they are showing it and max
ing it for their private Glen
telle.

NEW YORK, July 15.-This
1880 cotton blouse fashion is a
lively affair, isn't it?
Perky frills waggling in the
breezes. Ruffles cascading all
down the front. Casual bows
doing unexpected tricks on
sleeves. scallops rollicking
round a neckline.
And colors as delicate and de-
lectable as a California garden.
Have you ever seen any fash
ion grow by leaps and bounds
the way this one has? Just a
year or so ago, the cotton blouse
was only a memory.

"LadieS All" ="
Is Bibesco
Comedy

FOFIIIGT nuIildiIldii miIllotCl
Here Is Author of Play
Scheduled for Next Week
Opening at Brighto n
Beach, N. Y, next week
Ladies All" is heralded the
latest drama of Prince An
tome Bibesco, one-time Ru-
manian Minister to Washing
ington and author of a dozen
or more clever and success
full little comedies.
The departure of the Bi-
bescos, some five or six years
ago, left an aching void in
the social and literary life OF
Washington. Handsome and
clever, Prince Bibesco was
exceedingly popular and his
equally clever and attractive
wife, the former Elizabeth
Asquith, shared his popu-
larity.
At Madrid
From Washington Prince Bi.
besco was sent by his govern
ment to Madrid, where he is
still stationed. The Bibescos
also maintain an establishment
in Paris, where they are color
full figures of the French cap
ttal's smartest% society.
Recently Prince Bibesco pro-
duced a play, "Quator," at
the La Potinere Theater in
Paris. 1t was enthusiastically
received by the critics. The
only opportunity Washington
ever was given to see one OF
his comedies was when a local
stock company attempted his
Married Life" and failed most
dismally. The authors sophis-
ticated viewpoint, so dear to
the Partisan boulevardier, ut
terly failed to go across and
the play was withdrawn.
Wife Is AuthOreSs
Although not a playwright,
Princess Bibesco is an author
of no mean ability. Her short
stories are we'll known in this
country and even more popular
abroad. Her style partakes Of
the sophistication of her hus-
bands. Clever and witty, it
has a sparkling charm, how
ever, that is entirely it's own.
She is the daughter, as no
Washingtonian needs to be
told, of the late Earl of AS
quith and oxford and his wife,
the irrepressible "Margot" AS
quith.
The literary honors Of the
Bibescos are not restricted to
the senior members of the fam
lily. Their small daughter, the
1O-yearsold Princess Priscilla,
has already one book to her
credit, THE Queen and Her
Daughters" which has been
most favorably reviewed by the
critics. Little Priscilla signs
her literary efforts by the name
of "Tubby," her nickname for
herself.
WOOIf and Heming
Prince Bibesco's new play,
"Ladies All" has Walter Woon,
ex-Shubert star, in the leading
masculine role and the blonde
and pulchritudinous Violet Hem
ing as star. Walter Woolf, it is
understood on Broadway, has
been ordered by his physicians
to refrain from signing for a
year or two, his voice having
been oVerStaXed in his recent
Hollywood productions.
Woolf, therefore, is confidlng
his abilities entirely to legiti-
mate drama for an indefinite
period the Bibesco play, La
dies ALP will be his initial ap'
pearance in a non-singing role.
