has removed herself from town
to
country.
The big hotels will not be at their
height of gaiety for several weeks
yet. but. in the exclusive cottage com
munities houses were opened in June
usually as soon as the private
schools and colleges close by which
time well-dressed pretty girls are
swarming in the erstwhile quiet
streets of little villages, where auto
mobiles disturb the long quiet that
has lasted since the summer" people
left last September. Wonderful, in
deed, to native eyes must be some
of the frocks and frills and furbelows
annually making their June entry into
dull little towns.
The summer girl this year Is simply
but entrancingly dressed, and her
pretty little morning frocks look easj'
enough to copy to the country belle.
ho rpirarrts them anoraisinirlv. borne
of these frocks are really easy to
copy, but their very, simplicity calls
for beautiful materials end for per
fection of cut and the styles are not
so easy of adaptation as they seem.
Frills . Everywhere.
For instance, the frocks with pleat
ed frills of organdie! Such frills must
be machine pleated to have the proper
crisp smartness, and they have to be
set on with hemstitching. At a Long
Island shore colony the other day
appeared a love of a little frock made
of apple green organdie with a rather
short gathered skirt, having a hem
at least ten inches deep and an elbow-
sleeved waist cut kimono style. At
the front and back of the skirt fell
long, rounded "aprons" edged all
around with pleated frills of the or
gandie, and similar frills trimmed the
fichu collar and elbow sleeve. A sasn
of narrow apple green gibbon was
ilea arouna tne waisi, now hhu eim
falling at the front in this year's
quaint, fashion. Another frock with
pleated frills was worn at Newport
by a pretty young matron who steped
out of her electric runabout on shop
ping bent one morning last week. The
frock was of white dotted Swiss with
light brown dots and was trimmed
with pleated organdie ruffles that
were.picot edged in brown and were
set on with brown hemstitching. A
sash of brown grosgrain ribbon was
tied In front. With cool-looking morn
ing costume went a big hat of light
brown straw . with a band of brown
grosgraln ribbon.
Plain Dresses Good Style.
As Palm Beach foretold, back in
February, the plain linen morning
frock is the. acme of good style, for
midsummer wear. Linen is obtainable
gafn after the war years, and fash
ion, as well as housewives, have
pounced upon it as much as they
can get of the beautiful stuff.
Pale lavender. and pale Dlue linens.
made very simply and accompanied
by very smart hats, are evidently the
most exclusive thing for summer
morning wear, and these fresh, cool.
dainty linen costumes are set of f . to
advantage by very beautiful collars
and cuffs of sheer material, embroid
ered by hand. A frock of white linen,
made with long-waisted blouse at-,
tached to a .tucked skirtt has several
straps just below the normal waist
line and through these straps is
drawn a sash of wide black satin rib
bon, tied in one of the new up-and-down
bows at the back.
The long ends of the black sash
fall almost to the knee, one end di
rectly over the ther. and each end
finished with deep white wool fringe.
Few of the linen frocks are trimmed
with Dleated raffles. Ruffles are re
served for more airy costumes and
the linens are made in more tailored
effects. A good-looking linen suit
was observed on aboat starting from
New York for Portland, Me. and the
suit was headed for Bar Harbor, one
felt sure.
It was of very pale gray linen, with
straight, beautiful hanging skirt
and a straight, loose jacket in finger
tip length, held in slightly by a nar
row belt of gray suede. The coat had
long sleeves and mannish collar and
revers and its buttons were of gray
bone. Simple as could be but such
style and such linen that every wom
an turned around to look at it.
With the gray linen suit went a
rather small hat of black straw with
a floating black veil, a blouse of very
sheer, very pale yellow georgette, and
buttoned walking boots of black kid
with gray cloth tops.
Cheeked Ginghams Loom.
All the really smart gingham
dresses this year are in checked pat
tern. Only children, it seems, are
wearing plaid ginghams now. And
perhaps the smarest checks are brown
and white. Brown cneeked gmgnams
are so new that they have a distinct
ive effect and stand out among the
black-and-white, blue-and-whlte and
pink-and-white checks with a special
style of their own.
A tall girl at a Westchester country
club the other day wore a brown-and-
white checked gingham with a big
hat of cinnamon brown straw.
The brown hat had a trailing bunch
of blac -kgrapes and the brown-and-
white checked cloth had a necktie
of black ribbon. If was the simplest
of frocks, with a skirt tucked be
tween hem and hip and a loosely set
ting elbow-sleeved waist drawn into
a narrow belt of the material. But a
very wide collar and very deep cuffs
of white handkerchief linen, hem
tl'tcnea in brown, made the Bimnle
costume extremely good looking
along with the grape-trimmed brown
hat!
Women wear either very simple or
very formal frocks at the summer re
sorts now. What used to be called
an afternoon frock, of dotted Swiss,
cross-barred lawn, voile or dimity, is
now called a morning frock and may
be worn all day. For the evening
meal or for a late afternoon fete Occa
sion one dresses up in an elaborate
frock of tinted organdie, shirred net
flowered' georgette or chiffon: a
frock accompanied by a very elabo
rate dress hat. parasol and high
heeled footwear.
Did you know that little aprons are
very much the thing this summer
coquettish little aprons like this one
210). trimmed all around with a
pleated frill? The apron is part of a
fetching frock of pale green organdie
and its gay frill is matched by frills
on the sleeve and at the edge of a
turned-back collar that extends to the
waistline. Tiny square tabs, edging
this collar and turning back on the
pleated organdie frill, are embroid
ered in coral pink. There is a shorter.
also frilled, apron at the back of the
skirt to balance the effect.
Long- looped draperies at either side
of this flounced skirt 112SS)-give quite
new line and make the costume very-
graceful. The frock is of cream white
chiffon with a border design in ma
hogany shade. This border has been
used on two pleated skirt flounces
and for an underbodice, veiled 'with
panels of the plain cream chiffon. The
wide, low-placed girdl is of plain
and bordered chiffon. It is a very dis
tinguished frock and its rather long
skirt makes for dignity.
Simply as this young woman (267)
is dressed, she is very smart and up
to date. Her frock is of white linen,
on straight, youthful lines, and the
cuffs and collar are of white hand
kerchief linen. Through the deep
straps on the long bodice is drawn a
sash of wide black satin ribbon, tied
in the new up-and-down bow; and
the ends are fringed white wool. With
this smart little costume Is worn a
hat of mauve and blue straw trimmed
with black silk fruit.
For any summer resort, surely, this
very modern morning toilette (9952).

Seasonable Beauty Aid
We find you can bring out the
beauty of your hair to its very best
advantage by washing 'it with can
throx. It makes a very simple, in
pensive shampoo, which cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly of all
the dandruff, diirt and excess oil,
leaving a wonderfully clean, whole
some feeling. After its use you will
find that the hair dries quickly and
evenly, is never streaked in appear
ance and is always bright, soft and
fluffy; so fluffy, in fact, that it looks
more abundant than it is, and so
soft that arranging it becomes a
pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of
canthrox, which you can get from
any good druggist's, dissolve it in a
cup of hot water; this makes a full
cup of shampoo liquid, enough so
It is easy to apply it to all the hair

Tray Covers Handy for
Breakfast Upstairs.
Embroidered Kosegaya of Bright
Flonrrn In Cornera Make L!nen
Attractive.
BREAKFAST tray covers are an im
portant item in the linen supply of
the large country house where break
fast is served to guests in their
rooms. Even the modest home should
boast a supply of dainty breakfast
tray covers for every now and then
breakfast has to be carried up to
somebody and a tray covered with a.
folded napkin -has not quite the touch.
Linen tray covers make attractive
summer needlework and are neither
difficult nor tedious to do. Select
white linen of substantial quality
and hand scallop the edge of the
cover, making the latter the right
size to fit an oval or oblong tray.
Lmbroidered nosegays of bright
flowers, done in the corners, make
the morning tray cover very attrac
tive. The flowers should be tiny, of
course, and the flowers well massed
in a spot no bigger than a twenty
five cent piece. Match your tray
cover to your breakfast china. With
white and green china a cover of
green linen embroidered in white
will be attractive. With flowered
English china a pale ecru tray cover
with corner medallions of filet may
be very smart. Such a cover should
always be immaculately fresh and
uncreased. Have the covers ironed
while quite damp with a very hot
iron and roll them over a mailing
tube instead of folding.
