WITH the new emphasis on al
w lure, romance and the sweetly
feminine which is coloring every de-
tail of the seasons fashions, the
evening mode for summer becomes
more exciting than it has been in
many decades. Romantic traditions
are being revived with endlessly
spreading skirts billowing from
slender fitted basques or high bod
ices, smooth shoulders cleaning
above quaint pulled sleeves and the
daintiest of materials heralding a
new mood of enchantment.
Nowhere is this new influence
more thrillingly interpreted than in
the use of delicate sheer imported
cottons for picturesque evening
gowns. Fine Swiss organdies,
amazingly versatile in their effects
and finishes, are ideally adapted to
glamorous styling. Deceptively
fragile and delicate in appearance,
they combine practically with their
alluring daintiness, for these i'm
ported cottons carry a permanent
lustrous finish which survives any
number of tubbings or trips to the
cleaner. They may be depended
upon to retain their original fresh
ness and vitality indefinitely.
Lovely beyond words are the cut
out embroidered organizes in geo.
metric and floral patterns which
make adorably youthful frocks when
styled along simple lines that en-
nance the charm of the fabric. A
winsome frock of the sweet SIM
picity type that uses cutout en-
broidered organdy is shown to the
left in the illustration. Here deli
cacy with chic is achieved, plus a
dramatic play on color via the strik-
ing use of deep garnet colored or
candy embroidered in a trailing
white vine patterning as trimming
on deep blue Swiss organdy sim
ilarly embroidered. The frock is

Dead Friend: [ am interested in your
opinions on love and marriage. On
observation | have found that people
vary in their reasons for getting mar
ried and would like to know how you
classify them as each problem you have
attempted to solve and give advice on
has its own peculiarities. Would APP
preciate seeing an early reply.
LELAND NC. of Mass.
Dear LELAND NC. of Mass: I
believe that at sometime or other each
individual desires love to enter their
lives and to marry but if you were to
pin them down to telling you why they
want love and what they expect from
love, you would get various answers
From the various problems that |
have received I have made four classi-
fications in regards to love and marri-
age l. The individual whose only
ambition in life is to get married. They
usually have no conception of what a
real marriage means but look forward
to a meal ticket, protection and support
that marriage offers. In gaining these,
they feel quite content until someone
crosses their horizon in whom they are

OONT SIMMER THIS SUMMER
Keeping cool in summer has long
been a matter that battles the best
OF us. While there is probably no
really satisfactory solution to the
problem other than air-conditioning.
there are number of ways of being
less uncomfortable and looking at
least reasonably cool.
One of the first rules, of course,
is to wear light weight clothes. Per-
Sonally, have always found cottons
cooler IN summer than silks, per-
maps because of the knowledge that
Chey can be washed Tight-fitting
dresses and wide, snug belts should
De avoided in extremely hot weather.
You can look trim and chic without
having your summer dresses as
closely lifted as your winter ones.
USE MAKEUP LIGHTLY
Summer makeup is important
TOO Use it sparingly during the
summer and choose it carefully.
% our skin tone is likely to change
alter few weeks of summer, so
keep that in mind when applying
your powder. Select the cosmetics
mat blend best with your coloring
ana then apply them lightly. Too
much lipstick will melt and run be-
low your lip-line. Too much powder
w,n become caked and heavy dose
Oh rouge will probably streak as the
preparation makes your cheeks

White Plque for
Chic This Summer
Made in Everything From
Cloves to Bags.
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

It's a grand and glorious season
for white pique Everything from
gloves to wedding gowns is being
made of it.
The pert little sailor hats of white
pique are ever so chic. To match
the hat you can get gloves, bags
and belts of pique.
Neckwear of white pique is seen
at every turn. Boleros made of tai
lored white pique or of the very
smart new eyeleted pique are among
fashions latest offerings. These are
worn with the very fashionable
black or navy sheer costumes. Pique
boleros are also good style to top
sheer evening frocks.
Big bows of white pique are worn
and pique flowers are high style for
boutonniere or corsage. New dance
frocks are of white pique cut along
princess lines with generous flare
below the knees.
The bridal party dressed all in
pique will testify this summer to the
importance of this smart cotton. The
bride wears a gown of wide-wale
pique topped with a bonnetlike
headdress of white pique with a
short veil. Her attendants frocks
are of sunshine yellow pique yelled
in rust yellow.
Crisp starched hats of pique are
introduced. Sometimes the hat is of
eyelet embroidery. Then again it
may be of stiffly starched white
lace.

Mother-D Daughter
STYLES in Favor

The idea of styling parent-and-
child costumes alike is as popular
as ever. Some clever new versions
turned out for this season include
the skirt of many cores for both
mother and little daughter done in
a monotone weave or in the popular
stripes if you choose. Shirtwaists of
dotted or striped washable crepe
are tailored identically, size their
only distinction.

udmp.
Nail polish in summer should be
of lighter hue than the deeper fall
and winter shades. The paler, pinker
shades will harmonic better with
pastels and will give a cooler effect.
For some unknown reason, the
cooler we look, the cooler we feel.
WARM AND COLD BATHS
[ can't stress too much the import
ance of frequent baths in hot
weather. Not only are they neces-
sary to cleanliness and beauty, they
are important to comfort as well. A
cold bath in the morning will start
you out refreshed for the days
work, but in the evening it is wise
to take a lukewarm bath before re-
firing, regardless of the temperature.
Lukewarm baths are soothing to the
nerves and conducive to sleep.
Above all, don't hurry. Take
everything in your stride and don't
let anybody rush you. Remember
that haste makes waste, and in this
case it makes waste of beauty, com
fort and good grooming.

BEAUTY HINTS BY NINA TEMPLE
Charming Women

Charming women have found it wise
to keep their voices low and to never,
never argue. Observe the lonely, fret
full unloved women and you will find
them usually with high, muerulous
voices and debating this and that. Con
versation is fine art and for woman
a very useful one. If she would be
charming she must learn to let con
vensation flow pleasantly, easily and
agreeably, but must never interrupt a
conversation with heated controversy.

Paris Flashes

White wells are worn on black
hats.
Vogue for ornamental buttons
is revived.
Pearl gray ensembles are chic
for day wear.
Taffeta is favored for both day
and evening wear. @a
Bright short gloves are worn
with black costumes.
Fragile evening fashions have
filmy short cape effects.
Dramatic jewelry is made to
brighten dark costumes.
Light colored woolens with
black accessories is new fashion.
Old fashioned stiff broche
weaves are in prospect for jack
cts and hustle dresses.

Sway Of Bingham
Still Hanging On

To be in the fashion you must be-
come decidedly gingham-minded.
According to the new style code it's
gingham for party wear, for tailored
street outfits and as to accessories
to wear with other gowns make
them of gay plaided Bingham, belts,
gloves, pocketbooks, hats, boleros.
and blouses.

Waves on Shore

There's great wave movement
in the present silhouette trend, seen
in fullness, fiounces and gathers.
Even the tailored suit is softer and
more feminine.

Nowadays as much attention and
care is given to the meticulous styl-
ing of play clothes as to the most
elegant of evening apparel. A study
of play fashions as worn by leading
film stars out Hollywood way is all
ways well worth while, for the ut
most care and research is given to
correct dress both on and off the
stage. For tennis or beach a favo-
rite play suit is the twosome that
tops shorts of white sharkskin with
Roman-striped silk jersey blouse,
as here shown. The great advantage
of silk jersey added to its comedy
appearance is that it is delightfully."-
cool in the wearing.

Refers Glory in
New Bright Hues

Refer coats are particularly
adaptable to spectator sports. Trim
ly fitted, they look especially well
when done in one of the new bright
shades. Polo coats have regained a
surprising degree of popularity this
year, and, of course, they are al
ways a classic mode.
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1939-07-01

Important for summer is the cos
tune suit tailored of silk print. The
dress with jacket as here shown is
of check print, for checks are the
rage in Paris, with stripes in close
rivalry. A silk suit trend also ex-
ploits black bengaline or MORE
weaves. These are tailored with
classic distinction. In many in
stances the edges of the neat trim
jacket are finished with silk braid
binding.

From ever possible angle of analysis, the six round main bout tonight, involving George Pope of Meriden and Bobby Cummings of New York shapes up as the fight of the season" insofar as Waterbury fans are concerned, and at the finish of the bout tonight, there is every indication that those on hand will agree that they have seen the best bout presented during the outdoor programs sponsored by the Water bury A. 0. at the Randolph Cloves stadium.
 Know Their Staff
 Pope and Cummings are experi- enced professional fighters whose records for the past year have made the matching of the two ring nat urar" such as any promoter, where both have shown, would long for. Pope, good left-hander may be a 2 to 5 favorite when the pair enter the ring. Both possess knockout wallops and are in prime condition for their first meeting.
 The best semi-pro tussle shows Charley Baginski, Springfield fighter who seldom fails to please the crowd, tackling Johnny Devore, Bridgeport battler and this one may rival the feature.
 Sam Craig, Waterbury negro, bat ties Bobby Ellis, New Britain south- paw, in another standout semi-pro encounter.

Mako and Tidball
 Face Famous Australian Duo
BY HENRY McLEMORE


 Chestnut Hill, Mass, Aug. IT, (UP)-Hopeful of providing the first all-forcign final in the 58 years of the tournament, two Australian Davis Cup teams go out to battle for semi-final berths in the national doubles championships today.
 The No. 1 cup team from down under, Adrian Quist and Jack Bromwich, meets Gene Mako and Jack Tidball, and the No. 3 outfit of Jack Crawford and Harry Hop- man is lined up against the sur- prising English-C echoslovak com- bination of Charlie Hare and Ladis- lav Hecht.
 The battle between Quist and Bromwich and Mako and Tidball has captured the imagination of tennis lovers in and about this hal- lowed jousting ground as has no other match in years. The critics believe the winner is certain to go on to the title, and that the out come will give definite line on Americas chances to successfully defend the Davis Cup in Philadel- phia next month.
 Mako's play against the Austral- fans will be watched by Walter Pate, captain of the American team and Holcombe Ward, president of the U. s. L. T. A. with Don Budge as partner, Mako conquered this same Australian team in the final here last year, but bowed to 1t in cup play.
 Uncertainty
 Win, lose or draw, Tidball has little chance to make the team. He is considered too cratic, too likely to yield under pressure. If Mako holds up today he will be set and the selection committees troubles will be narrowed to the choice of a partner for him. Until yesterday 1t was felt that Frankie Parker would be the man but then along came Bobby Riggs with the most sensational show of doubles play of the year teamed with Elwood Cooke with whom he won the Wimbledon title earlier in the summer, Riggs smashed the intercollegiate cham pions, Bob Peacock and Dc,g Im- hoff, in straight sets. Tn. ,ic.c-y was all Riggs. Given l.ttie or ao help by Cooke, who was badly off his game, Bobby played superbly. He couldn't miss a shot, and win ners cascaded off his racquet from star: to finish. Today he looks like the ma:., to play with Mako.
 CrAv:ord and Hopman are the smartest, cagiest players in the field, and 1t will be interesting to see them pit their knowledge and subt- letS against the ferocious hitting of Hare and Hecht.
 The women'S program for today lists four fine matches, the winners to gain the semi-finaiA The lire up: Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Fabyan and Alice Marble vs. Betty Nuthall and Nina Brown: Mrs. Dorothy Andrus and Mime. Silvia Henrotin vs. Mime. Simone Mathieu arc Mrs. Virginia Rice Johnson; He.er Jacons and Dorothy Workman vs. Msry Hard wick and Valerie Acott, and Patri- cia canning and Virginia Wolfen- don vs. Kay Stammers and Mrs. Freda James Hammersley.
 Riggs and Cooke were not the only ones to reach the semi finals yesterday. aLte in the day Frankie Parker and Don McNeill beat Russ Bobbitt and FraEx Guernsey to make the round cf -Four.
