Dress in Business.

WITH ONCE equipment so precise
and eficient these days, much can
be done to speed up the daily routine
OF work. Just so With your personal
appearance A great deal can be done
in little time and less effort if you know
how and when to go about it-and the
proper beauty equipment to use.
For just as you have a responsibility
in coming to the office dressed as we'll
as misunderstanding out the day with
a cheerful freshness-you also have to
realize the importance OF your face
looking right. For no matter how
smartly you may be dressed, If your
face appears tired and sallow, your ef-
forts have been in vain. Every one is
sensitive to faces whether you hold an
important executive position or work
over typewriter. And leaders in busi-
ness particularly should appreciate this
fact.
Above all else don't frown during
business hours! Or at any other time
for that matter This is an important
command which all of us would be wise
to try to follow. A Fifth avenue salon,
catering to clients who desire complete
quiet and relaxation during treatments,
has method of stroking movement for
the froWn and arched brow lines in the
forehead which you could practice to
advantage II you are inclined to squint.

Great Interest in Hats
Developing This Season

in large dimensions. Maria Guy makes
such a hat with a flattering dropped
brim placing a huge taffeta bow on
the crown. This hat is the ideal solu-
ton of what to wear with the smart
new Summer cottons.
The high crown, made popular in the
chechia. marks many OF these large
hats. Sometimes this is done through
a draped band of taffeta or satin, or
the straw crown itself may be built up
Mado has model in baku, with wide,
curved brim. The high crown is banded
In cotton crepe in red, yellow and
brown.
The small hat. of course, continues
to hold its own. Variations of the fez,
pillbox and the turban are constantly
seen and will continue to be through
out the Summer season. But the popu-
larity of the small hat will yield sorre-
what to the new vogue for the wide,
picturesque typc. The Summer mode
In hate, Is, IN a word, as versatile as
any one could wish

Women Want Practical,
Comfortable Fashions

and harsh line, but soft, casual one,
rious fabrics. This line, I feel, is 60
ing to grow in Importance. 1t Is a
graceful line, 1t Is youthful, and 1t Is
new and different.
Now I would like to call attention
to another note of interest, and that
is fabric and color contrast. Color con-
trast Of course, we are familiar with.
Each year it appears in some form.
Fabric contrast offers endless possibiI-
t!e1 to the couGurier or to the woman
who designs her own costumes. There
is a pique scarf on a black silk suit.
A year or two ago such a scarf would
almost certainly have been of silk,
crepe or taffeta. BY making it Of pique
or linen, an entirely new note has been
introduced. BY including in the cos
tune hat of the same fabric, a new
interest has been brought into the style
field. Yet the pique accessories are
quite in harmony with our principles of
suitability and practical use.
Sometimes I have extended the fab
ric contrast to coat and dress, as in
a navy blue wooden frock, worn with
a short coat of heavy cotton. There
is no reason in the world why a coat
for Summer wear should not be Of cot
ton. 1t is light and practicable. and
when reinforced by color interest, it
is a smart new note in the field Of
fashion.
Similarly there is a note of contrast
in black and white ensemble, with a
skirt of black marocain. jacket, hat and
upper part Of the bodice Of checked
material And I have created still fur
ther interest by using the checked fab
ric, both on the diagonal and on the
straight.
Yet, you will agree, I am sure. that
while these costumes meet the demand
of the modern woman for something
new and interesting, they still are in
harmony with the laws Of good taste
and of suitability.

Notes on Footwear

THE outstanding news in footwear
this Spring is the vogue OF the
rounded toe; not the very stubby cut
that makes the foot look slightly de-
formed, but a modified version that Is
adapted to the simpler lines of the new
costumes, and very well suited to the
average foot.
The classic American foot, the long
and slender one, is not neglected. The
shoemakers have simply added the
stubby-toed shoes to their stock-the
larger proportion of footwear is still OF
the long-vamped variety, smartly trim
med with contrasting feathers, or per-
forated in the new manner. Fashion
tends more and more nowadays to
suit the individual, rather than en-
deavoring to make mold into which
the individual must force herself.
AS always in Spring, there is a
tendency to lighter tones in stockings
as the season advances.

Ensemble Suits.

ENSEMBLE suits are & boon to the
II budget shopper. especially those
that have silk dresses and lightweight
wool coats. The ensemble Is bought,
perhaps, with blue coat and a gray
and blue printed dress. and then one
buys another dress Of contrasting
shade that looks we'll with the coat,
and, 10 and behold, there is another
complete costume.
The convertible suit is another wise
choice. In these we often find a plain
jacket and skirt, perhaps with a top
coat as well. and an extra plaid skirt
that may also be worn with the plain
jacket. These costumes, with different
blouses or sweaters make it possible to
play almost infinite variations on the
suit theme. And the wools this sea-
son are so light that one may wear
such suit on cool, dull days all Sum-
ner and. with the addition OF the
~ coat 1Ar into ths. Eau - well

cording to this designer, is the loose

The big attraction at the Mainbocher
Summer collection was the entry at one

larly gowned for evening In fascinating
taffeta frocks. These we're all for mid
Summer, untrimmed and relying on
their wonderful ,colors and large de-
signs for distinction. They were closely
fitted through the bodice and hips, with
the skirts marvelously cut to flare in
front or at the sides and always at the

Double. purpose .Garb.

THE wise business woman chooses
each item of her wardrobe because
it will go with" something else. And
it Is in answer to her demand that we
find all sorts Of clothes that may serve
two or more purposes, such as the
dresses with rather low decolletages and
no sleeves that are covered with jackets
in the daytime and blossom forth after
dark as costumes suitable for restaurant
dining and dancing.
If the daytime silk ensemble has q
slightly dressy silk coat, you may make
it perform double duty by acting as
an evening wrap on Summer nights.
The little velveteen jacket that looks 50
gay on the side lines at the country
club on Saturday afternoons will be
equally smart over a tailored evening
dress. The swagger coat that goes over

crease Of over Z million bushels since
August first. Oats production shows
an increase Of almost million BUSH

potatoes Show further decline from

the month q large part Of the crop
had been cut for fodder. There are
scattered fields In all sections where
ears have developed normally and
produced q good yield Of grain. A
large portion Of the crop, however,
will only produce light chaffy ears,
due to poor polnnation.
Other spring wheat Is yielding
somewhat higher tran expected in

producing little better than seed. The
estimated production Of A,240, 900

cast month ago-the $685. 900 BUSH

Flax shows another sharp decline

donment resulting from grasshopper
damage and drought. The produc-
