Style Clinic for Women at Miller's Friday and Saturday afternoons at 3:30 o'clock. Miss Marolyn Dear lng, nationally known stylist, will be on hand In the third floor at Miller's to conduct a style clinic and give advice to those who would make the most of their Individual charms. The clinic is open to all Interested without charge. Miss Dearlng Is the New York rep resentative of the Simplicity League of Amateur Designers. Her aim In life Is to see that the proper women, patterns and fabrics get together. While in Salem she will demon strate how this should be done with mannequins who will display newest styles both suitable and unsuitable. Plump models will show the wrong styles for that type, while thin girls will be laughable In a display of tight frocks featuring vertical lines. These new fashions, on the pro per models, will bring rounds of applause. But perhaps it Is the fabric Itself which is unbecoming, or the pattern, or the color. Put the red dress on the black-haired girl and the black dress on the red haired girl and you will have the proper combination. These and many other hints Miss Dearlng Is only too anxious to Im part to Salem women. Her theme Is that you should dramatize your per sonality through color, lines and farbrlc to suit your individual type.
