really let their imagination
roam. Not only in swimming
and beach attire, but in their
daytime sports clothes can they
indulge in gay and vivid colors.
Odd coats and trousers in
different colors are at their best
at the shore, and with them you
can wear ties and shirts as
loud as you please. Sports shirts
Of all kinds are at home there,
and gay Scarfs in place of era
watts are seen.
You can mix your tanS and
blues, your grays and browns,
whatever you please so long as
it's in harmony. AS long as
you're lounging about, making
no special attempt to be formal,
nearly anything goes.
COIOred Linens Smart
Colored gabardine sports
coats, flannel jackets with odd
trousers, colored linen suits as
we'll as white, deep toned shirts,
gay cravats. all these go into
the general color scheme, and
make men look much more in
dividua1, much more colorful
when they're away from town.
Those who like to indulge
idiosyncrasies of taste in color
can do so to their hearts con-
tent. OF course, the town color
favorites are good at the shore,
too, with many deep blue shirts
worn with yellow ties, or yellow
shirts with dark blue ties, and
so on and so on.
In swimming and beach
clothes you can again have as
much color as you like. The
sailor colors and styles seem
best, though you can throw in
strong accent Of red without
having it look effeminate.
Anchors, sailor emblemS, all
sorts of nautical ideas are seen.
and the basque striped shirt is
a favorite, too.
Capabilities Useful
Espadrilles of cord are worn,
even for lounging about the
house when you're at the beach,
and are a great comfort to have
around. It's advisable to take
more than one pair, as you'll
always need a dry pair.
Sweaters come in handy, too,
as nights are apt to be cool.
In case of a rainy or cold spell,
a Slip-over can be worn under
your sports jacket in place Of
q vest, and the same sweater
will do duty when you're SAIL
ing, if you need the warmth Of
wool.

ton a statement as to its cool
ness. For many men haven't
worn the new flannelS. They're
lighter and cooler than the old
"red flannels' which men wore
some years ago.
The reason for this new cool.
ness is that American weaverS
have learned the methods Of
some of the English weavers
who have made lightweight,
cool flannels for many years.
English Weaves Copied
England has climate that
demands just such a fabric as
flannel. The dampness there
calls for wool, or something
heavier than our linens and
seersuckers. Yet they have
their warm days when they must
be cool, too. And so for years
they have had their specially
woven flannels.
The American versions are
just about as good as the Eng
lish originals. Nor is their pop
ularity due entirely to their
lighter weight, for now patterns
are available, and more and diff
ferent colors.
HOund'S-TOOth Checks
In the early days you wore
either navy blue or dark gray
flannel. Now some of the most
popular shades are the lighter
grays and tans, and there are
stripes and patterns, too.
Hound's-tooth checks are smart,
and specially favored by young
men. Chalk stripes are good,
and are not only found with the
stripes in white, but in gray on
blue, and similar combinations.
Nothing fits better for sports
clothes than a good grade Of
flannel. There's something
about the casual, easy drape and
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. look that
is essentially flattering, and
that's another reason they are
popular.

By WILMA LAVILLE

There's really no excuse this
year for some of the grotesque
sights we see nearly every time
we go near a beach or pool.
It's true that we can't all be
beautiful, nor have we all per-
feet figures, but there is so
very much we can do about it
anyway.
First in Importance is to buy
q suit that really fits you, and
that does the best it can for
your own particular figure.
Never buy suit without try
ing it on. You can't always go
by size, for different manufac-
turers have different ways of
measuring them, and it's i'm
possible to buy SO this year
just because you did last year.
You can easily slip them on
over your lingerie without harm
to the suit, and without much
trouble to yourself.
Buy Longer Suit
Your own figure and type
should determine what suit you
buy, not your fancy. If you're
tall, be sure to get suit long
enough. That gives a balanced
look, and avoids the cutoff look
that is so unattractive.
Unless you're beautifully slim,
don't try to wear a suit with.
out a skirt. Maillots, as the
French call SkirtleSs suits, are
smart on some people, but only
on some. Also don't try one of
the trick Upper suits with a
little waist to them unless you
are slim.
An extremely thin person
looks better in a fabric suit,
such as bingham, or in a two
piece suit composed of top and
shorts than in the usual one
piece wool. cut very low. Also
the very thin girl will probably
look best with a neck cut
rather high in front. But this
is all problematical. Try the
suit on and find out!
Avoid Halter Necks
If you're not thin, or have
figure problems due to excess
fat here and there, then your
problems are entirely different.
V lines at the neck are much
better than halter effects or
round necks.: Buy a suit with
v front and back, then even
if the V is deep in the back, it
will not give you that extremely
wide look. If you can't get a
v, try a deep oval, rather
pointed at the bottom. Be sure
the suit fits under the arms
well too.
Only the slim should wear
vivid colored suits. Larger
women should stick to dark
blue, black, dark red and per-
haps a dark green or brown.
A bright, lively effect may be
achieved through white or col
ored cap and shoes, though
belts should be avoided if they
give you a decidedly cut-in-two
look.

VIENNA HOTEL
 GOING MODERN
Pre-War Rend ez vous ol Noblemen to Be Re-
 modelled for Comfort

VIENNA, Dec. 7.-Ghosts of old Vienna, of gay archdukes and plot ting noblemen, are raised by an announcement that the famous Hotel Sacher is to be modernized.
 Since the death four years ago of it's white haired, cigar smoking owner. Frau Anna Sacher, the hos telry has had repeated dealings with bankruptcy courts.
 After the war impoverished the greater part of her clients, the Hungarian and Polish nobility, Frau Sacher attracted wealthy tourists. among them many Am ericans, despite her refusal to c.eer to modern ideas of comfort.
 the old days wine flowed like water in the Sacher, with it's pri- vate dining rooms, the first in Vienna, but running water was as unknown in it's bedrooms as in these of Emperor Franz Joseph's palaces
 Many aristocrats remained true to the hotel as long as Frau Sacher lived, but left it after her death. Competition for the dwindling tour ist patronage grew keener. and forced the place to conform to de- mands of the times.
