Be Careful With Eye-Shadow,

Cautions Miss Helen Jameson

With red lips, ciear skin and éyelids touched witn blue, a girl may
be a knockout. Sie will be if lips
aren~t too vivid and -eye shadows
are faint. But if she has applied
these pigments lavishly she will; be
lithographic, Patriotism is noble but
even so, no girl should turn herself into the starspangled banner.

You can~t~, monkey with eye
shadows unless you know something
about makeup technique. Restraint
is the secret.* It is important to
find the flattering color, important also to condilion the flesh before the application is made.

MUST CONSIDER TYPE

The type of girl must be considered. One must have chic and
flair, be beautifully and perfectly
dressed. Nothing will make the
dowdy lassie look more ridiculous
than painted eye shutters, which

It has been some time now since
ve have discussed feet. with an eye
te beauty, but, under most circumstances, it is our feet that not
chly give us our start but carry
up through the day and. evening
With a minimum of consideration...

Too often we are ely to buy
shoes because they are so cute, or
because they makeour feet look
smaller or because ~the heel is so
graceful. -Not that I would for a
minutes advocate shoes that are
ugly. Scuffeq toes, run-down heels,
heavy soles can ruin the best outfit but shoes that are to comfortable can ruin a face anda disposition,

A shoe that combines beauty
and comfort is the ideal solution,
but, if that is impossible, it is
far better to sacrifice a little foot
keauty rather than limp around
attracting attention to the fact
that your shoes are misfitted or
highly inappropriatefor the occasion.

If you have a job, or do housework, or go in for walking or
active sports, you should wear
a sensible shoe by day. A good
Stylish oxford looks far better in
an office than a spike-heeled, toe-,
less shoe which was designed. pri- |
marily for evening glamour.

There is nothing more foolish
than a girl tripping over desks,
files and sundry furniture just
because she thinks high heels are
& necessary part of her costunie.
Save your dainty, flimsy slippers
for evening if yoy want to save
your joo.

_ Skin deep,~ so frequently, many of us are inclined to accept it and
we take the attitude that if a swift glance in the mirror tells us.
that all is well, we are off to a good start. Alnd perhaps we are
off toa good start, but it is more than the start that counts.

aS you would like, don~t try to
conceal the fact by wearing shoes
that are too tight. It is very
easy to tell if a shoe doesn~t fit its
wearer and it will make you ap year+

carry the entire weight of your
body and unless they receive the
proper treatment, they will rebel.
And when they rebel, you will
discover. to~ your - chagrin, - that
beauty fs more than skin deep.

You'll wonder where you: ever
those cross-looking
frown lines, that strained look

around your eves. Strange as it
seems, ill-fitting shoes affect your
posture, your walk, your face and
yoy figure.

And after all, if I must appeal
foremost to your vanity, summer
is cnly; a few months away and
you will soon be exposing your
tees at the beaches and pools.
Then you will be sorry if they are
marked and red-looking. Start to\daly to get them in condition.
Apply a little hand lotion to those
rough spots after each bath.

Take inventory of your shoes
and decide just which ones really
fit properly and which you bought

mind to be good to your feet and
they (will serve you well in return.

The most popular millinery innovation of the season is the
chenille yarn ~skullie~, a snug little dink of knitted texture held
firm with a grosgrain ribbon band.
So smart are these little numbers
that they are being worn with
suits,. coats, and sportswear on
many and varied occasions. In
green, gold, zippy blue or any of
the spring ~shades, they are especially dashing when flaunting a pert
quill of gay contrasting hue.
Also appealing in the hat picture are the lingerie chapeau,
httle hats made of eyelet. embroidery or crisp lace gathered into
ruffled topknots or circling Dutch
halo bonnets. & pair of clever
hands can make such a hat in a
few hours. An interesting fashionist of my acqugintance is receiving compliments on her white
crocheted Dutch bonnet, which
starched and crisp forms a novel
halo above her curls. Cap-like, it
fits neatly over the hair in back.
Boutonnieres composed of interesting buttons are new and decorative. And making them is easy
with the flower motif so popular in
rilgbons. Pastel tinted pansies,
daisies, rosebuds, violets, and bluebells are among the button posies.
Made of a lightweight composition,
they have the-appeafance of natural blossoms. A matching clip or
pin often is obtainable to form a
pretty set,

| Vegetable and ~fruit buttons also
are popular ~ lemons, bananas,
occuring in bunches or single units.
