changes of clothes and at tho
same time assuring your reputa-
ton as a capable young execu-
tive and a wise traveller.
Summer suits and jacket dresses
are the best possible choice, not
only because they look neat and
trim, but because they're COM
Portable and hard wearing. Leave
the fussy frills and furbelows at
home. whether you're going away
on business, dashing of to spend
q few days with husband in the
service. or merely tearing down
to meet the 4:30 train. Small
hats that stay on your head,
comfortable shoes without too
many bows and buckles, wash
able gloves and bags that don't
show every lipstick smudge are
happy choices. Prints are good.
and so are the rich, deeper-toned
cottons. Skip the full-skirted
peasant" dresses with puffed
sleeves and turn to well-tailored,
good looking clothes with more
of a sophisticated air.

The grass may be greener in
the other fellows yard" but there
is no reason why there should not
be plenty of comfort In yours.
The "far away hills" are likely
to be way out of reach this sum-
mer, but if your own garden is
furnished with inviting chairs.
swings and hammocks you will
not need to look further for rec
reation.
Garden furniture seems to be
more attractive than ever this
year. Maybe the manufacturers
hoped to take the sting" out Of
curtailed motoring by making our
own back yards so attractive that
we cannot bear to leave them.
With all of living informal and
comfortable for the few short
hours of leisure we will have to
enjoy, it is a smart idea to fur
nish the garden with the best
you can find so that vacation
begins the minute you step out
the back door.
Wood, bamboo, cane and
similar types of garden furniture
are available, and the deep new
chairs and low tables are entic-
ingly comfortable and useful.
Prices are about the same, but
the accent is definitely on buying
the best you can afford, the most
weather-resisting types that will
last for the coming years. You
may start with good chairs at
about 81, which, with proper care,
will last 10 summers. Or you may
pay $40 for a chair which will last
equally as long.
Design, texture and expense are
regulated only by the type OF
house and garden you have and
the plumpness of your purse.
The painted wood chairs are most

are not very elaborate. After
all, picnics mean games and
other strenuous sports, so 1t is
hardly the fitting time to dis
play our fine linens and expen-
sive silver, glass and china. Ar
ticles that can be battered
around" and still look fairly pre-
sentable are preferred.
A streamlined outing kit con-
tanning a sandwich box and two
uuart-sized thermos bottles, each
with four plastic cups, IS an ex-
cellent item. These are neatly
fitted into a simulated leather
case with Upper fastening. and
two convenient handles make it
very easy to carry. This particu-
lar type of article is ideal If you
are planning a menu Of light
"Snacks."
Another type of outing kit that
is a little more on the expensive
side consists of a complete serv-
ice for four or six persons. You'll
love this handsome case, for it

Travelling in Wartime
Simplest N0n.C .CrMshable Costumes Are Recommended

Maybe it's q little severe to call
EN- madhouses, but such places
as Union Station, Washington

bus terminals have a mighty
frenzied atmosphere these days.
What with thousands Of people
arriving to take jobs, other
thousands In town for a few
days to transact business and
half the permanent population

bus, the situation is far from
soothing.
In these days when travel is
curtailed and likely to be dras-
tically cut down tc those who

with as little effort as possible.
Reservations are indefinite, so

too. the mark Of an experienced

and you'll be thankful for a

Plan carefully as to the type
Of clothes you'll need and re-
member that versatility in your
wardrobe is more important than
ever. A wrinkle-resistant cot
ton suit with several changes Of
blouses will take you neatly
through the longest trip in hot
weather. And as for accessories,
don't feel that you must 60 in

Answering Readers Fashion Queries

rs a suit Of awning stripe
cotton suitable for travel in the
summer? Would it be better
worn as two-piece dress, or with
a blouSe?"
Such a suit in fairly dark COL
orS is excellent for travel. 1t
may be worn either with or with
out a blouse, but If you want TO
look fresh when you arrive. a
crisp blouse is a great asset.
Il want to give graduation
present to a pretty young girl
who dresses up and goes out
great deal, but I cannot spend
much money. Can you give me
any ideas?"
Flower jewelry in lightweight
plaSticS goes with almost all sum-
mer clothes and is a welcome gift
to almost any girl. Pretty pas
tel printed handkerchiefs are also
nice gifts, or if you want to spend
that much, a summer handbag of
cotton in a bright color would be
nice.
Il am letting my hair grow
in the back, and would like a
suggestion as to what type hat
1 can wear besides a turban, to
keep the unruly locks in place"
Try a string snood with a lacey
back portion, Dutch cap of fab
ric, any Of the knitted or cro-
cheted tie-on effects. or a hat
made Of swirls of yelling. the veil
covering your head in the back.
These last are quite new and
smart.

Washington Wears

Princess Boncompagni poured
tea, looking lovely and gracious
in a softly draped gown of jersey
in tones of tan and beige, with a
turban of the same colors. -.
Mrs. George Pettengill wore
severe black, relieved by fetch
ing little hat consisting entirely
of two fat pink roses and a wisp
of veil. . Mrs Frederick Brooke
also chose black-so becoming to
her fair skin and slim figure.
Mrs. John Whitney is being
welcomed on all sides at her
return to Washington for her
husbands new tour OF duty.
Always one of the best dressed
women anywhere. she looked par
ticularly snappy Sunday after
noon in a trim beige shadow
plaid suit. topped with an enor-
nous broad -brimmed hat of lug
gage brown felt, ornamented with
two beige and brown quills stuck
smack across the front of the
crown.
In town for luncheon was Mrs.
Mason Peters, looking cool and
composed in a green linen suit,
tiny flower trimmed hat and COL
orful sandals with matching bag.
Helen spends most of her time
at her La Plata home, where she
says she Elves in" slacks and
play suits. Another advocate
Of the casual slack suit for "at
home" wear is Jean Murphy,
seen busily at work in the family
flower garden the other after
noon. Jean chooses slacks in
a colorful tangerine tone. wears
them with contrasting blouse.
Miss Louise Davidson, driving
in from her Bethesda home
looked fresh and cool the other
day in a light blue and white
print, with white hat banded
in q bit of the same print. :.
The towns advocates of the short
hair-do are blessing the recent
heat wave-it made their hair
curl delightfully."-, without benefit
of the hairdresser's art. Gertrude
Prisley, one of the first to have
a short, short haircut, looks
fetching these days in a tiny
pompadour straw bonnet in
luggage tone trimmed with soft
yelling. OF course she wears it
far back on her head in true
Gibson Girp fashion.
Erna Grunewald, the Powers
model who's joined the ranks OF
smart Washington women, is
dashing about town in a draped
white turban which completely
hides her blond hair. Erna wears
large clip earrings on the sides
of the turban in very effective
fashion.

cushion covers, they are not i'm
proved by remaining out Of doors
all summer through sun and rain.
They should be put under shelter
at night and if possible taken in
side during prolonged rains. Any
extra care you give the base and
cushions to keep them from alb
sorbing dampness will keep them
in good order just that much
longer. OF course. If they get
caught in a quick thunder shower
their weather preservation fea-
lures will pull them through
nicely and you need not worry
about them. 1t is the daily ab-
sorption of moisture that causes
mildew, fading of color and i'm
pairment of finish.
An investment in q collection
of comfortable chairs, several Of

mock or two and some conven-
lent low tables-one for each
chair, will cost only q small part
of what is spent on vacations or
weekend trips. The fact that
they are always there the min
ute you step out Of your door,
offering rest and relaxation with
out any effort on your part, will
make it possible to take advan-
tage Of every moment of leisure
this summer.
Rugs for the garden are not
necessary as a rule, but if you do
not have brick or hagstone ter
race you may wish to have some
thing under your feet as a deter
rent to the many small crawlers
that abound in midsummer.
Chiggers. the tiny red spider that
can cause such annoyance; ants
that bite when disturbed, do not
add to the Joy Of the garden.
