Sweaters Receive
Popular Acclaim
Fashionable for Daytime,
Evening Wear.

There's infinite variety in sweaters
for every occasion. for every hour
this season.
Right now as the formal season is
under full swing with first nights
popping three and four times a
week, concerts in full swing, bene-
fits galore, supper parties before
and after the theater, cocktail and
dinner parties at home and at night
clubs-the most exciting sweaters
are for evening wear. Last winter
women took up the fashion of eve
ming sweaters with joy-fnding it
the most practical and fa,tering
fashion in years. This season prom
lses to surpass last in enthusiastic
acceptance of this American fash
ion.
And no wonder! The new sweat
ers for evening are dazzIingly beau
tlful. Jet, the darling of the season,

strawberry pink sweaters. Whole
yokes of jet sequins highlight black
Woolknit jenkins or short sleeved
sweaters. Jet appears as a border
for bottom and neck of a sleeveless
jerkin of wool chenille-smart with
a long skirt and balloon sIeeved
blouse of chiffon.
Gold beads and metallic thread
trace intricate patterns of embroid-
cries on long torso" fitted sweat
ers. Rhinestones gleam in clusters
in an all-over pattern-the only trim
ming on an azure blue sweater.
New stitches have been devised to
make lovely textures of the knits.

of soft yarn-beautiful in white
with elaborate gold embroidery. An
other is tricot-cord, a smooth, close
ly knit fabric with body to it for
the more tailored sweaters. Wool
chenille has a fine nubby surface
which gives texture interest to the
sweaters for evening.
Pinks, blues, white, red, and
black are the loveliest and most i'm
portant colors for these evening
sweaters.
Classics go on for college and
country wear-with violet tones,
gold, clear light blues, and orange

In your haste to complete pre-

And, so in this column today, l am

your own appearance as attractive
as any decorative effect you may

Dress up! Brighten up your

1t is also important that you have
two identical foundations for every
day wear to keep your figure mould

foundations worn alternately and
kept fresh and in good repair may
be expected to hold their original
lines and do their job of figure con-
troll appreciably longer than two
purchased successively.
One foundation for formal wear
is a wardrobe necessity because the
figure needs extra help to look it's

THAT OLD LUCK

Beauty Hints-HD.
THAT OLD LUCK
Many women get that old look many
years before they should. They bring
in on prematurely by worrying, scowl-
ing or looking depressed. Watch your
self and whenever you catch yourself
with an unhappy expression on your
face jerk it off and begin to smile, no
matter if you don't feel like it, smile
anyway. Soon you will find your feel
ings following your expression and you
will begin to really feel brighter.
Watch your expression and keep a
cheerful smoothe unwrinkled face if
you want to keep young and be ad-
mired long after the years have said
"no"

This evening ensemble is a black
sheer crepe over black silk taffeta
slip. The skirt is slit and edged
with rose taffeta pleating. It's chief
glory is the huge bow that trims the
taffeta bodice of matching rose petal
silk. This bow is so arranged it
comes through slit in the jacket.
Watch bows! They are coming into
their own on the newer dress fash
ions. It is also smart style to tie
collarless coats with a huge taffeta
bow at the throat.

In order to help you l have laid
out the following schedule, select
ing for each weekday particular
beauty spot on which you can con-
centrate: Monday, hair; Tuesday,
hands: Wednesday, complexion and
makeup; Thursday, body; Friday,
feet; Saturday, entire appearance.
Naturally, you will not confne
your activities only to one part of
you but on Monday, for instance,
if you have half an hour to spart, it
would be wise to devote, say, fifteen
or twenty minutes of that time to
improving the appearance of your
hair and, in the remaining few
minutes, give yourself the once
over all around. This proposed
schedule does not, of course, limit
your hair-dressing to one day a
week. 1t is merely a suggested
routine of beauty care for busy
woman. I myself have found this
a very successful method to follow
and so, too, l think will you.
Regain the admiration of your
loved ones. Surprise them with a
new coiffure, with becoming make
up. Show your young folks that
beauty, neatness and charm in ap-
pearance are not attributes only of
youth-that mother and grand
mother, too, can benefit by a beauty
routine. You'll be glad you took
time out for your brushing and
cleansing, your exercises, when you
hear their exclamations of delight
at their "new" mother. You'll be
more than repaid for any effort
when they say "How wonderful you
look" "You look ten years young
er." And, Mother, how pretty,
how attractive"

busy mothers who make use of this
simple plan, and hope they will all
