The thid rule in abandoning plainess this summer is to with stourd every bargain dress you ree and every new me unless it deli- mtely does something for you. One dress that Batters is better th a half dozen that don't. You can have it cleaned or tub it your self, clumes are, with the vogue for the washable that there is.

A TOUCH of daisy piping gives a soft white crepe frock the dainties and freshest touch. There is a diagonal cut to the blouse, with the collar ending on one side to meet it, and a sash that swathes the hips beautifully.

Little dirt sleeves are cut in one with this blouse. The skirt has Hare all eqwn and it, like the collar, cuffs and sash ends, is fished in slany piping. A sheer white novelty straw taps it with amazing chic.

And many is the day you will be tickled to pieces to have a brim such as this to shield your eyes from the burning sun and cast Battering shadows on your cheeks.

11. NOTHING beats white face, if you need a gown to go 10- matic in. It has a delicacy that makes you seem every inch a womanly woman. Vionnet takes white lace, lugs it tight about the hips, dnes a double trick turn at the top of the back decolletage and ties a rash in the back and there you are, ready for any eve sirig's dancing in the moonlight.

HI. IF YOU are addicted to evening pajamas, you should have at least one nice costume in white. Jane Regny uses heavy white crepe to make one pair and tops it with one of her famous fregoli boleros, This one is in pent) and silver and is vastly becom- ing to anybody with a slender figure.

IV, #En golf you are playing, don't give a glance at mannish things. Go in for soft, feminine things. Be tata ed il you will, but dressmaker rather than mannish tailored. Just the dress for you, a formally tailored dress for informal ocensis, is a white sports model, mande double-breasted, with a very unusual trim in the form of colored lagotting made of nar-

ow strips of colored silk.

The rounded revers flatter any lady, the wee sleeves show the arm off and give freedom at the same time, the skirt pleating allows you as much room as you wish to swing. In black and white this is a stunning model.

You can have brown, green, blue or any color you wish. O course, you accessories can be white or white combined with the color of your choice.

IF YOU belong to the country club set that is going in Don't for garden parties this summer dress the part.

Picturesque no end is a vari-colored chiffon ensemble with separate coat that boasts flowing sleeves above black mitts. This coat, you will observe, comes oil and leaves you the kind of dress you need for dances. The huge chiffon coringe repeats the deli- cate browns, tans and pinks of the chiffon and the picture hat of hair has a halo of tiny flowers in colored tones, too. A touch of mystery in a dress and this one has it in abundance--it bound to heighten its appeal.
