A number of manufacturers In re-

wear. These have the double ad-
vantage Of being much less expen-

Choose your summer shoes for
comfort even if you have to sacri-
flee a little of their beauty. Many
people buy their shoes a half-SiZe
larger for summer. And in buying
your shoes, remember how often
they will have to be cleaned. Moth

Avoid wide or tight belts for
summer and collars that fasten up

The selection of a summer ward
robe, especially for the working girl,
presents a serious problem. Most
dresses after a few broiling hours
look as though they had been wrung
through a wringer and not even
hung up to dry. A careful choice of
fabrics and styles will be a help in
avoiding this appearance.
First Of all, limit yourself to wash
dresses almost entirely during the
hottestpart of the summer. Buy them
with an eye to easy laundering. Sew
eral dresses that can be rinsed out
at a moments notice, dried in a
few minutes and ironed with little
or no effort will serve you better
than five or six frocks that must be
sent to the cleaner or which are a
real chore to launder yourself. On
these days when we go around in
a perpetual drip, it is almost impos-
sible to make dress do more than
one day without rinsing it out, but
a clever collection of easily laun-
dered dresses will save your leisure
hours from Tubing and ironing
drudgery.
There are a number of fabrics on
the market today which are said
to be "crush-resistant." How we'll
these materials make good their
claim is a matter of opinion but
they are especially treated to hold
up under trials of summer weather.
Washable prints are very wise buys
for the working girl since the print
has tendency to make creases less
noticeable. Light colors always look
cooler in summer than dark or
bright hues and we feel, to some ex-
tent at least, as cool as we look.
While all white is impractical for
all-day wear since it shows the dirt
so readily, a Powered print on a
