THE CHINA MAIL, TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 1961.
WOMANSENSE
• Be in the swing with the year's newest shape for a beach cover-up: As casygoing as a cloak, more exciting than a jacket.
The Cape look is another fast-rolling international beach notion for 1961. These little copes or ponchitas are very gay and what is more, very easy to make.
For the one shown in the picture you need two oblong white towels, joined together and edged with fringed trimming in white (or be dramatic with scarlet
bobbles).
As an alternative try bright red or apple green edged with a binding of brightly coloured printed cotton. A good idea for shivery smalls on the beach is ano towel folded in half with a holo cut out for the head, Then either make a bolt of towelling to sath round the middle or else a couple of ends to tie at the side of waist level,

A FACE IN THE SUN
SOME RULES TO HELP WITH the coming of the summer heat comes
the inevitable problem facing all European women in a hot climate--how to protect one's hair and skin from the often disastrous effects of sea and sun.
The English rose complexions and the Ameri- can peaches and cream, so beloved of women novelists are based on truth even if the roses rather tend to be submerged these days under layers of cosmetics and are by no means so uni- versal as the lady authors would have us believe.
