than the plate, and flat enough not to
show.

If you wish to preserve the color of
your hair and retain its natural oils
be sure to wear large hat when out
in the hot sun. Long hours on the
beach are particularly hard on the
hair, making it dry and brittle. If you
are being exposed to the sun very
frequently it is advisable to take hot
oil treatments. These are very good
to combat dry and falling hair.
For the older woman whose hair is
white careful weekly washing with
pure liquid soap is essential. A thor
ough rinsing to rid the hair of all the
soap is best achieved by using a
shower and when the hair is almost
dry vegetable bluing may be combed
into the hair to keep it soft and white
Combing the bluing into the hair in
stead of rinsing is preferable as it dis
tributes the bluing evenly and pre-
vents streaking when hair is set.

If your last years leghorn hat needs
bleaching, lay it on flat surface and
go over with peroxide applied on a
cloth. Keep flat until perfectly dry.
Your old white felt or pastel felt
hats for that matter, may be rubbed
up with piece of french chalk and
brushed. They will then look like new.
New bathing suits are made of shin
ing yellow sateen processed to permit
the suns rays to penetrate. No long
er will an evening gown disclose the
exact spot where the tan leaves off
and the bathing suit starts.
A smart new suit is made of polka
dot satin with an diversified beach bag
to match. An encircling Upper can
turn the bag into a skirt or hood, re-
versible, if desired.
Then there is the bathing suit with
the sarong draped skirt. These are
best in printed jersey.

smart on organdy party dresses with
the old fashioned triangle shawl worn
over the hair or shoulders. At the mo-

every type of costume, being just as
effective for sport wear and the beach
as they are with evening clothes.
