It's Simple to Dress
For the Occasion
Do you know what to wear to a
wedding? A funeral? An afternoon
tea?
According to Julia Mclver, State
college extension specialist in
clothing, you’ll find that a few gen
eral rules are always helpful.
For a formal wedding before
six o’clock, wear a street-length
dress with hat and gloves. But for
a formal wedding after six, you’ll
find a dinner dress the order of
the day in most localities. And
wear a head covering if the church
requires it. 1
Funeral dress should be conser
vative in both style and color,
says Miss Mclver. It depends upon
how near your relation is to the
deceased. If very near, you’ll be
correct in black, navy, or grey.
Hat and gloves should be worn,
but should be simple.
For an afternoon tea a suit or
dressy dress is in order. A hat,
of course, is a must—and it can
be fairly elaborate. Step out in
pumps, carry a dressy bag (smal
ler than one for shopping) and be
sure to wear your gloves. In sum
mer, you may want to dress up
one of your pretty cottons with
an uncluttered hat of straw. But
don’t dispense with accessories.
Wear your gloves, carry a small
purse, and of course wear your
best shoes.
When can a veil be worn in good
taste, in general, says Miss Mclver,
veils are a little dressy for morn
ing use, but they can be worn in
church. They are proper hat ac
cessories for afternoon and eve
ning and can be used by them
selves with evening costumes.
However, the use of veils varies
with the mode of hats at the time.
They are never a “must”

TEEN TROUBLES
' -*y--—
John Douglas, M.D., and Mary Douglas
Question—How can a girl get a
boy to ask her for a date?
Answer—First, and very import
ant, don’t chase him. Don’t be ob
vious. Boys run from girls who do
either.
Now for some things you can
do—without being obvious:
1. Make yourself as attractive as
possible. Not sexy looking—but
just neat and clean and nicely (but
not showily) dressed.
Keep your sweaters, blouses,
scarves, gloves, etc., fresh. Keep
your hair, teeth and skin shining
clean. And not too much makeup.
2. Look happy. This is very im
portant. Boys think a glum-looking
girl is either stuck-up or a sad
sack. They are attracted to a hap
py look. It means smiling a lot
and being nice to everybody. It
means never saying mean things
about people. It means being in
terested in a lot of things besides
yourself. It means going out of
your way a bit to help people. It
means working for good grades in
school. (Boys don’t like dumb girls.)
3. Practice being friendly with
everybody. Smile and say, “Hi,” to
new students who may be feeling
lonely — and to your own friends,
including the boy you have in
mind. (He can’t think you’re chas
ing him, if you do it to others,
too!)
4. Help your parents plan a
party to which you can invite the
boys without embarrassment. Sev
eral girls can give such a party—
as co-hostesses. Plan plenty of ac
tivity. Be ready with more games
than you will have time to finish.
This will keep your party from
sagging in the middle. Leave out
the kissing games. Boys enjoy ac
tive games—like 3-legged races or
balloon tennis.
Have your party so well planned
that everybody will have fun right
up to the moment their parents
honk to take them home.
5. If your lad still doesn’t break
down and ask for a date—better
forget him for awhile. Of course,
he may be just keeping an eye on
you for future reference—or he
may be keen on somebody else. (In
which case you should keep hands
off!!) Whatever the reason for his
hard-to^gel attitude, don’t give him
the impression you’re the sexy
type, and don’t chase him!!
