Extra" FrOcks for Your Summer
Wardrobe
JUST about now, many summer
y occasions come along for which
an extra little dress would fill in
beautifully. Buying summer
dress now is excellent economy.
You'll find better values than
you've seen all season; and If you
choose your dress carefully, you'll
find the style will be good to start
off next summers wardrobe.
If you haven't a chiffon in your
summer wardrobe; by all means
select chiffon for the extra frock
you buy now. If you're going
away week-ends, choose a chiffon
print. Because it will come out
of your travelling bag ready to
wear right away chiffon prints
have the delightful habit of not
looking wrinkledl And your printed
chiffon will be just right for the
beginning Of next summer, too.
Be sure you get it long enough.
Skirts are en1phatically not going
to be shorter. In fact, they may
grow a bit longer over the winter.
Perhaps you'd prefer a plain.
colored chiffon. These are not
quite as popular as prints, but
they're equally smart perhaps
even a bit smarter.
Maybe you need an extra frock
for less formal occasions than
those which demand chiffon. Then
choose pastel silk crepe, and to
be very practical, buy one that's
washable. Pastel blues and pirlks
are especially good; yellows and
green's are also in the fashion
picture. And for most any day
time occasion during the summer,
there's nothing cooler or sweeter
than one of these charming
dresses, with short sleeves or
jaunty little. capeletS.
Frocks for informal daytime
and sports wear-faShioned from
ribbed silk are new and smart.
Good morning, have you had
your permanent wave?

End of the Year

Only two more full sessions Of
the stock market remain in the
present year. In these two ses-
sicns the so-called technical fac
tors, such as selling to establish
tax losses. house-cleaning or un-
desirable holdings. ETC., WI play
a more important part than de-
Velopments in industry and busi-
ness. Those who can see the
silver lining in the business
clouds have been buying their
favorite stock at prices which
give the best income yields in
nearly three years. If they are
assured that dividends will con-
tinue at the present rate they
should not need much urging to
buy stocks at present prices.
