The lines of her neck put her into the “stunning” class and if she in any wey neglects her brilliant opportunities in that di- rection, then she has to face the dreadful fate of einking ignomini- ously into the category of “lanky” ones. What a fate! And how easily escapable! Though the latter is something which myriads of long- necked girls fail to realize. Take an original basis of clothes reasoning !f you have a long neck. Don't go about moaning; “I am not im a class with the frocks in the stores.” Say, rather, “I shall make these dresses suit me. And, if they fail utterly to be coaxed into my class, then I shall design my own clothes and teach others what suit- ability of dressing really is.” Isn't that a mistake which most of the types of girls are making most of the time? They are trying to fit themselves (call them square pegs) into clothes that are easy to find (call them round holes). It is the hat which is most impor- tant in the clothes consciousness of the long-necked girl. ney her with one of those “cutey” little things perched way on the top of her head, with its brim turning toward the aky. It is all wrong! Now take the hat in the picture, with its feather falling all about the face, bending down in softness of line, to meet the high build of the neck. Then see the swoop of the feather on the right side as it flows along with the neckline and reaches the shoulder ima curving, caressing curl. There is art about that, and beauty, And the feel of it, on the girl whose neckline it suits, is something that raises a2r estimation of herself to the extent of making her feel kindly to all human- ity With a Mattering plume like t one, in the picture, any long neck can then afford to have a plain line about 8 thé throat. Possibly without the featheriness it could not attempt the flatness of material as the dress reaches the throat, but certainly when the feather is there, only charm comes out of its combination with a flatness of dress construction at that point. It 1s all a matter of what things you combine to make a p ture of your own head. Not any one thing is right, nor any thing wrong, but certain combinations of lines are positively thrilling in the effect that they, together, create. Of course, you with a long neck must be more studied in your dress- ing than the girl whose neckline does uot claim to be conspicuous in any way. Naturally this is so, because the very line of the neek’s curve sets the standard. It ts a studied thing in it- self and you have 4 duty to take ac- count of it. Barrings are Weautifa! on the girl whose neckline is long, Earrings ac- ‘centuate this salient character'stic of % 100 greatly. whe bas the where- one ace anninsthnnabangee A drooping feather is at its best topping the slender lines of a long neck, as the larger photograph shows. High collars of fur place the girl whose neckline is long in her element. withal to carry off the decoration so that it becomes a part of the scheme of her expression without ever giving the effect of being in the least bit resonant of “ginger bread.” The girl in the picture who wears the drooping hat has a big, round ear- ring to help out the pattern of her head dress. ‘This ts good, but long earrings are even more stunning. You gee there is space enough there to set them off, to make them appear as merely an adornment rather than something that fills up all of the sur- rounding area, Jeaving no breathing space Then there are the high collars. ‘Tney are never common because only so few of the girls capable of ring them well. But they are ai- ways smart if they ure dono in the right manner, There is the fur collar in the pic- ture wrapped high under the ears of a girl whose neck is long enough to stand the sometimes trying line. How well she looks and how natural it seems for the cotlac to sweep over the lower line of her mouth—all be- cause her neck is long enough to stand it. Haven't you seen those girls who attempt these high collars when the very construction of their anatomy pushes the fur into a tight wad under their chins? Now that is anything beautiful. And, moreover, it should not be done. The fashion should be left for the long- necked girl to display as only she can do it All sorts of high cotlars—not alo! fur—are meant by spccial and Divi right for the girl whose neck is long. She can wear (ivse Ughuy buttoning fairs that have the further addition of a ruifle under the chin. And while her short-necked contemporaries cleave to the blouses everyday and sports wear that are low in front, she can wear those that creep high under her chin. Thereby she makes of herseif an individual entity, she carries out her own expression to for fullest extent, and she stands out one who does not have to stoop follow the very ordinary dic- tes of style standards. If your neck is long it is so much in your favor. But just by itself it means nothing.

HAT evening as Pessy rode home from business and Billy Bracton held her arm while he gallantly balanced himself by a strap she was ii a gay mood, While she was joking and cutting up with Billy she was thinking of what a wonderful time she would have in that Madison Avenue house. How she would entertain, how she would dress and bow good it would be to ride about in a sedan instead of hanging on to subway straps! She rejoiced in her heart that she had accepted Sanford. When Billy Bracton proposed she had put him off on the plea that they remain pals and only become engaged just a few months before marriage. When Harrison Townley proposed he had given her time to look into her own heart und decide things for her- seif; but when Sanford proposed in his more or less matter-of-fact busl- ness manner she had been keen enough and sane enough to answer then and there, * After all, she did know her own heart when the right man came along. But did she? Things on a flying subway look very different from things in the stilly hours of the night. I had not mentioned John Sanford's proposal to her parents. She wanted to surprise them, to Iterally take them off their fect. He had said he would call to-morrow evening. She wanted him to tell his own story, to watch the eapression on their faces. Now, as she lay in bed and heard the clock strike twelve, one, two, three, things began to look very dif- ferent e could picture herself in that big, brownstone Madison Aveaue house day after day, sitting up trying to entertain Sanford’s mother, What it she did have a fur coat in the ward- robe or wear a flashy diamond upom her finger or ride about in a sedan, Would she be happy? What about her heart? Did she love John Sanford? Could she understand a man of forty-five, a man old enough to her father? Admiring a man in an office because he was a kind employer, because he was, although much older, her ideal type of Sir Launcelot, did not mean that she could be content and happy married to him. If she married John Sanford and went to live in the big house on Madison Avenue she must give up Billy Bracton, Harrison Townley and business life. Could she do this? Peggy scrambled to her feet, pushed on the electric button, slipped into a flame-colored dressing sacque und begun to write at her desk. “Dear Mr. Sanford.” she scribbled in a slanting, loose hand, "I am wiit- ing this at three-thirty.

By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. Copyright, 1921, (New York Rvening World.) by for the Fair, Publishing Co. AMILIES probably are a diadl- A combined cold shower and setting-up drill for the soul. I can’t think of any other reason for their existence. To escape them Man invented business, golf emd war, And, after centuries of training, has reached the point to-day Where he is able not only to escape physically from his family But also to tuck it into a mental corner closet, And blissfully forget it, for long hours at a stretch. Women, poor dears, are not 6 lucky! The family haunts them from the cradle to the grave, Castthg a shadow on their joys, Chastening their sense of acbieve- ment, Criticising their clothes, love affairs, work, ideas, ambitions, Whispering about them! So far as women are concerned, The family is expert on “viewing with alarm’, but weak on “point- ing with pride.” A prophet is not without honor seve in bis own country, Or a woman without praise—save in her own FAMILY! It deplores her, Or IGNORES her, Or manages tp do both at once. From sixteen to sixty, the clothes she wears and the way she wears ‘em | Are the subject of a continuous fame~ ily “probe.” Nice girls,” says her mother, “don’t roll their stockings, Or park their corsets at dances, I can’t imagine where you get such ideas!" “I should think you'd freeze in that little, light coat,” observes her husband, “And your pink dinner dress is cut so low I'm ashamed to go out with you.” “What makes you, buy a red bat, mother?" (Thus chides the daughter of the house) — . “Ien't it pretty gay for a Woman of Your Age?” (Oh, whatever else she wears, the womdn with a critical family ever lacks the shirt of Nessus for her soul!)

To this group her work is a cross between @ personal fad and a do- mestic scandal— Something to dismiss with, at best, a tolerant smile— At worst, a wince of distaste. Little boys go around bragging that “my father’s a lawye! or a doc- tor—or a manufacturer— But they never, never were known to show elation because “my mother writes stories"—or sings —or paints magazine covers! It seems even to annoy a woman's children That she should aspire to any role other than gingerbread-maker or stocking-darner. As for her aunts and her cousins, They tell her how “lucky” she is, when she sells the world her wares— Presumably because every family Prefers to attribute the success of its women to impersonal chance Rather than to personal talent. From the family point of vie woman's guilt is persona! But not her gifts “Wheever would have thought"—so runs the kindly cousinly com- ment— “That Mary Louise would write a novel? “And tho Things in It, my dear—T don't see how a Nice Woman could know them. “I felt so queer when the minister “How do you suppose her husband likes it?” This sort of comment about her books, or looks, or love affairs, Every woman may expect from her family.
