CHARM
Ry lou SWARZ

SIMPLICITY IN CLOTHES
especially for street wear Is
found to be the most sensible
as we'll as the most charming . D.. l..
Designers who shine best are
those who personalize their cli-
ents and when making that
street wardrobe, urge and inn
press upon their clients = the
clothes which have what we call
simple lines. However, there are
always the exceptional ones who
want you to be seen miles be-
fore you get where you are goirg
- both in colors and in styles.
But it is wise then to use your
own judgement, and know that
Simplicity in Clothes is what
the smart woman chooses = es-
pecially for street wear"
Study your exclusive shops
and you will find that the most
beautiful and the most expensive
clothes are those which are made
or designed along simple lines.
No matter what your figure is,
you can wear simple clothes -.
even though you have neglected
to study yourself. The best thing
is to make astudy of yourself
and always wear that in which
you look best - no matter what
the trend Of style might be.
When we are conscious about
to that inner charm, we
are also conscious about our
clothes too right along with all
the other Charm assets, so just
take few minutes every day
and study your self and
watch your progress where
CHARM is concerned.

OUR CHILDREN

1t is said that every fine man
has a good mother. This is al
ways true. The boy has a sense
of loyalty to his mother and
above al things to look to her
with pride. In fact, many men
look for their wives to have the
attributes of their mothers. She
is often considered a boys sec

family of his own he looks for
his children being like his mot

BEAUTY HINTS
by NINA TEMPLE
REDUCING DOUBLE CHIN

Apply bandage saturated
with vinegar to the chin each
night and tie up tightly with a
stocking or wide rubber garter
Leave on about two hours and
then apply a soothing skin food
to relieve irritation. Double chin
gives one appearance Of age and
is certainly far from enhancing
beauty: therefore, if you would
retain the facial contour Of youth
and charm, see to it that your
double chin has no chance to
develop, or, if it does, rid your
self Of it.
