CLOTHES FOR AFTERNOON MUST BE DISTINCTLY FORMAL

Longer Skirt Required in New Styles BY JEAN PATOU MCA Service Writer PARIS, Jaft. 6.—Clothes now set aside for afternoon wear are of distinctly formal character. The length of skirt, one of the most important features of the morning costume, is one that would not be allowed for a strict sport*) suit. It is longer and has the waisted bodice, both features proper to more formal dress, but employed in morning dresses. Still another point is the bloused eflect, never seen in tailored clothes because it Invariably goes with a fitted hip yoke. Although simplicity is the keynote of these ensembles or dresses, several of the more formal fashion features are used in their creation, as, for example, the basque and the tunic. Simplicity in Cut Demanded The features used in more formal dresses have to be simplified for morning dresses because of the fabric usually employed. Any woolen material demands a very simple cut. This, on the other hand, is amply compensated by the fantasy of design and the coloring of the new fabrics, usually enhanced by the trimmings. Whatever trimming is employed In these morning ensembles must be light in color, in direct contrast to the accessories, which invariably arc dark, and both have to be in line with the general simplicity. For several seasons, white pique in the guise of collars, ties, bows and edgings, lias given excellent results. A belt of dark, soft leather supplies the direct contrast to the luminous note supplied by the pique trim. Speckled Designs Newer While uneven or broken checks still arc enjoying a considerable vogue for early morning outfits, I rather prefer the woolens with the speckled or mottled designs, which 1 consider newer. These fabrics need very little trimming, being almost sufficient unto themselves. Morning dresses also have borrowed from afternoon styles that seemingly narrowness of skirt and flowing silhouette, with the difference that an ingenious cut makes them perfectly comfortable lor walking. If desired, a jacket can be added to these morning dresses, although they are absolutely complete alone and are usually so worn. But if a client demands a jacket, it must fulfill the requirements of perfect ease of movement, lightness and moderate length. It can be fur trimmed or not, as desired, but can be chic either way. Accessories Not Too Fanciful Accessories to accompany these quite important clothes need not be so practical nor so severe as for sports wear, but must not fall into any too fanciful or dressy ideas. The smartest bag, I think, is fashioned of the same material as th*' ensemble. If this is of the checked or speckled variety, an inconspicuous handle or clasp is indicated. If a plainer fabric is used, the bag can stand a frame or handle of some precious wood or metal. To fashion the hat in the same material to set off such a morning costume is a mistake, but incrustations in the hat of matching or contrasting felt will lend the whole ensemble that finished look so difficult to acquire. ’ Bag Can Give Color If a note of color is needed to tone up the general eflect, this should be placed in the bag and hat in the guise of motifs and perhaps also in the belt buckle. Shoes are another item to be carefully considered. Flat-heeled sports models are obviously out of place, but so are high, tapering heels. Perfectly plain pumps of box calf Or kid, with moderate Cuban heels of leather or a fancy tie shoe are the best styles to select.

Glorifying Yourself

'THHE kind, the place, and the girl are all to be considered in this thing called “roughing,” this winter. After you have picked the kind of rouge you want, and the color, just where you place it on your cheeks is most important. The amount you can use with impunity depends upon the type of girl you are—vivid, pallid, exotic, vibrant. If you have the normal oval face, apply your rouge in triangular fashion. Draw' a little triangle with it from the temple to the lower cheek and then to the ear and up again. Apply it with the third finger of your right hand, either in little dots that you can blend in. or trace small lines with it. Blend it with the second finger. a a a THE brightest tint should appear right w’here your ow’n coloring would be, in the center of each cheek, w'hen you fill your mouth

Just Every Day Sense

CY MRS. W ALTER FERGUSON

THE conclusions reached by a certain type of political mind sometimes are rather startling. In a post-campaign speech a successful candidate lately was heard to say: “My friends, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the great honor you have conferred upon me. lam grateful for the mark of confidence as evidenced by your votes. And I desire to say that I consider this gift of public office one of the greatest that can be bestowed upon mortal man.” Now, that all sounds very fine without a doubt. But the facts are that this man. In *trying to grab the magnificent gift, had spent months of his time and the time of his friends, to say nothing of the round sum of approximately $50,000. The word “gift” in this instance seems to have been a trifle misused. This kind of a political arrangement smacks more of barter than anything else. a a tt WHAT soil of result, I often wonder, would obtain if it were possible to hold an election without the expenditure of a dollar by any candidate? Probably we should have better men in office, and certainly we could vote no more unintelligently than we do now. In spite of all laws and regulations, vast sums are spent in presidential elections in this country. Authorities place them as high as twenty million. And for the multitudinous lesser of--fices, the expense is equally outrageous. Indeed, one of the chief reasons we have such poor specimens running our business of state is because the struggle to get into office is so arduous, and the money necessary to attain this ambition so out of proportion to the emoluments, that the successful candidate is almost compelled to resort to some sort of thievery to live at all. This “system,” which we have built up with such painstaking care, has become the most cumbersome. the most expensive, and the least efficient with which any people has ever saddled itself. And the idea that we govern ourselves is one of the exquisite farces of the twentieth century.

I with air and just before you biow it out. If you have a long, thin face, you can take your pick and make it look rounder by placing your rouge lower on your cheeks, even shading the palest tone clear down to your chin. Or you can enhance the interesting length of your face by applying it even higher than the usual oval placing. If you have one of those nice round, chubby faces, but always have resented it and wanted it slender, try rouging high on the cheekbones, just below the eyes, and taper it over toward the nose instead of out tow'ard the ears. tt a a 'T'HE amount cf rouge you need depends on a lot of things Some skins absorb rouge—the oily skins—and they need more rouge and a retouching with the compact during the day or evening, if you are dancing. If you are wearing an off-the-l'ace hat, you will need less rouge than if you are wearing a brimmed hat that throws shadows on your face and deadens the rouge effect. The size of your eyes has something to do with the amount of rouge you use too. If you have beautiful, big, dreamy eyes, you can afford to use more rouge than if they are small. If you are a little person, overrouging may reduce you to a mere nothingness, rouge should compliment you, not stand in your way of being yourself. Last, but not least, apply a bit of rouge to your chin and just touch the earlobes with rouge, especially if you wear your hair behind them and are addicted to earrings. Nothing is more bewitchingly feminine than this little touch for evening wear. It is out of place in the daytime, however.
