Suggestion for Travel Wear

charts a new style rock, or perhaps_a more appropriate phrase would be that a new light-house of fashion is~added. Mariners (including tailors and milliners) please note the Silk Scarf Light.

There are dozens of ways to wear this scarf, knotted high about the neck, with one loop perking out over the shoulder, or cravat-like under a poet's collar. They are found in men's furnish-iny places, and make a very effective adjunct to the chic costume. A new way to wear the printed silk hankie, by thd way, is tied choker-wise round the standing collar of a blouse.

It is well to have in mind the psychology of your summer resort in choosing your summer -outfit. Some watering places are -so damp that chiffons wilt and organdies droop, so that physical climate partially dictates the general mode of dress. Deeper than that, however, is the influence of the social arbiters of the beach or mountain rendezvous. Sometimes it is distinctly bad form to be elaborately dressed—the old-timers never are—and again one must prink. to feel a part of the entourage. Be sure to be primed beforehand.
