OF WOMEN
Ruffles Lend Springlike Touch. GLORIFYING
Hollywood.
Modified Letty Lynton rules and plain necklines give a light, evening springlike look to new things the stars are wearing.
At the Mayfair Club party at the Hotel Biltmore in Los Angeles, Lois Wilson wore a very becoming white dress, with triple ruffles around the armholes, giving a dressy look to her shoulders, and no jewellry except'n handsome lit- tle circular diamond clip right in front. It was the new off-the-floor length, a favourite for dancing.
Lillian Harvey, British star. wore a white crepe dress with beaded bodice and a single, flar- ing, graduated ruffle of the beaded crepe out over cach shoulder. It had a deep V in the back, and also. in the front.
Seeing Stars
Other amart evening dresses ween on stars recently include:
"Joan Crawford, dancing with Doug Frairbanks, Jr., at the Co- coanut Grove wearing a white dull crepe dress with little bows of the same material around its shoul- ders and armholes, and down the skirt, too.

Anita Louise dancing at the Co- coanut Grove with John Farrow, wearing a hyacinth blue taffeta gown. The skirt flared at the bot- tom, and below a molded hipline, and was decorated with swirls of blistered silk ribbon of the same shade. For a wrap she wore an old rose cape which was quite. short.
Sandra Shaw, dining at the Brown Derby with Bruce Cabot, wearing a white evening gown, high in front and cut to the waist in the back, and topped by a very short white coat that had enor mous leg-o-mutton sleeves, THE WRONG TOUCH,

YOURSELF.

No utterly fatigued woman can look beautiful. Yet only woman out of a hundred, or even more, knows how to save herself from getting strained, tired and even cross-looking.
It requires an intelligent pro- gram to manage to salvage some peace of mind from a hard day's work, either at home or the office or store.
One plice where business wom- en make a big mistake is in lunch- ing with someone every single
noon.
If it is someone interseting preferably of the opposite sex, then it seems to work out better. If it is just anyone about the office or about town who happens to come along or phone or ask you, then it is a mistake:
"Lunch alone. Read a good mag- azine. Read the papers. Relax and just think it can be done with a little practice.
When you have a given time in which to lunch, there is bound to be strain in trying to meet a friend, have time enough to talk and still get back in time.
If you can take a leisurely lunch period, time enough to wash up, make up, and saunter out, orderi ind eat in unhurried manner and relax perfectly, you will be 80 much more rested, so much more' miable and so much better look- ing in the afternoon, that it is worth considering.
