King Cotton will rule all
through the summer, so look for
tri-tone waist bands in patriotic
color cottons; breast pockets de
signed to hold a strip of golf
tees; white pleated gingham
dresses with red cotton jackets.
Cottons for the afternoon func
tions will include grey and white
striped seersucker with separate
bolero jacket (for that luncheon
in town). For an afternoon on
the beach, cotton swim suits in
exotic South Seas prints with terry
lined cotton robes to match. Out
standing among the playclothes
are the bare midriff polka dot
numbers and “country cousin”
play outfits of one-piece checked
cotton playsuit with detachable
hood and full pinafore tie-on
skirt. For evening, it’s bouffant
dotted swiss with striking wide
corselet of navy linen, or mar
quisette with white embroidered
dots (Oppenheim. Collins, New
York, has it), and many other
crisp, cool and still glamorous
cottons.

Auto Quiz No. 3
ANSWERS
1. a. before you reach the
curve. A car is steadier on a
curve when the engine is pulling.
A driver should enter the curve
slowly enough to enable him to
accelerate slightly when actually
rounding it. If you have to use
your brakes on a curve you label
yourself an inexpert driver.
2. c. within the assured safe
distance which you can see. Road,
light, weather and traffic con
ditions vary greatly, making 50
miles an hour safe at times and
20 miles an hour dangerous at
others. No matter how straight
the road, how good the car or
how dry the pavement, if head
lights carry only 200 feet you
must drive in the dark at a speed
which will allow you to stop, in
an emergency, within 200 feet.
Likewise, in daylight, you must
drive at a speed which will allow
you to stop suddenly, should an
other car emerge suddenly from
a side road, or should a child
dart suddenly into the road ahead
O'1' you.
3. False. 115 times as many
persons are killed in automobile
accidents as are killed in aiiplane
accidents.
