(By Wilson). How ean girl dress harmonâ€" iously? That is a question which the girls of this twentieth century seem to have answered for themâ€" selves, for surely the majority of our girls of toâ€"day are harmoniously dregsed. They have drifted from the hoops and bouffant styles of their grandmothers to the slender silhouâ€" ette so popular toâ€"day. _ They bhave flirted with period frocks, played with the Spanish basque and coquetted with the tiers of flounces, but they have turned back, in a body, to the warâ€"time coat and dress. Students of progress claim that the was taught min nothing; that after the toll of lives and property taken by four years of devastation, they have learned nothing for their salvaâ€" tion, If that can be said of man, it is not true of woman, for she has learned anew, the benefits of simâ€" plicity in raiment. After four lean years of war, woman responded heartily to the ery of dress for show. They tried the vagaries of Catherine de Medici and lent themselves to the vogue of ,Marie Antoinette, but now they turn their baeck on everything artificial in raiment. . They demand the straight line, the eonvenient garâ€" ment, the slipâ€"on, the stepâ€"in.. It is barder now to be well dressed than in the days when knighthood was in flower and lords and ladies fair thronged the palace courts of France. Artificial dress reigned supreme in those olden days and artificiality covers defects;â€" simplieityâ€"_ eovers none, In speaking of harmony let us find what harmony means. The Coneise Imperial Dictionary with its ecold calculating words says harmony means ‘‘in aecord,"‘ or ‘‘*musieâ€"like."" ‘‘In accord‘‘ expresses well our idea, for, were we always dressed in acâ€" cord, we would always be dressed in harmony. ‘< Musicâ€"like,""‘ too, exâ€" presses the exquisitely and harmonâ€" iously garbed woman. As Longfelâ€" low said of Evangeline, we might truly say of the girl harmoniously dréssed, ‘*When she bad passed it seemed hke the cé@ting of exquisite musie.‘ Second of the Prizeâ€"Winning Essays on Harmonious Dress Last week ‘The Advance published the first prize essay in the competiâ€" tion inaugurated by the South Poreuâ€" pine Home and School Association.

An Essay Showing Marked Ability and Originality of Thought. Formerly each yéar there was a decided change in styles, but now each year the change is slight, The retention of fashions, however, is not a barrier to the aceumulation of new apparel, for woman is like naâ€" ture. â€" The flower of every tree i8, each summer precisely the same as it was the summer before, but it is a new flower. _ So they insist upon changing seasons. If each and every woman had the leisure, and necessarily the wealth to attend the fashion displays in Pars, the home of fashion, or in New York, its American rival, then we would all be â€" harmoniously _ dressed. The daughters of the idle rich roam aimâ€" lessly through carpeted halls:of marâ€" ble with deep velvet hangings, artifiâ€" cial trees, and broad stairways. There in a rendezvousâ€"room with inâ€" viting deep cushioned chairs, and mystic hidden lights, dainty manneâ€" quins promenade to and fro, and there no aggresive colours are alâ€" lowed. Who could not be harmonâ€" iously dressed with the famed deâ€" signers to choose their wardrobe? Unfortunately, or fortunately, we are not all children of luxury, and so we must depend upon and cultivate our own sense of harmony, that we may always feel we are in harmony to whatever occasion presents itself,. Fine feathers do not make fine birds. That oftâ€"quoted adage is not wholly true. _ Literally speaking fine feathers do not make fine birds, but THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO This is the winner of the second The Advance published it is with women, renewal with the One must not appear in the drawâ€" ingâ€"room dressed for mountain hike, or still more ridieculous would it be to attend an evening ball attired for golf; a pienie costume would be sadly out of place on a motor trip. Just as we would not think of taking our bathing suits from the beaches, so we must leave all our eostumes each in its allotted place. To appear harmoniously dressed, twe things are absolutely essential and equally imâ€" portant. First, you must know what you intend to do, whers you intend to go and dress aecordingly. Then, you must study well and know your own type and having learned it adâ€" here to it alwiays. Let us look at some of the different types most ¢ommon toâ€"day. _ Foreâ€" most among them is the ever popular athletie type of girl with her bobbed bhair and dashing spirit entering every field of athleties, breaking all bonds of propriety after years of suppression by her brothers. She is found at the seaâ€"shore, on the golf links, on the tennis courts, at riding meets, yes she even enters and excels in Marathon traek events. All sports costumes are for the Athletie girl, but she can dress for social funetions as well as her milder, and, as her anâ€" cestors would have said, her more ladyâ€"like sister. Then there is the slender tailorâ€" made girl who has invaded the busiâ€" ness world. To her belongs the seâ€" date lines of suits and one piece dresses, She goes to business alâ€" ways immaculate and faultlessly dressed. Her wardrobe should conâ€" sist of at least two skirts, several smocks and blouses,â€"the more the better,â€"two or three dark office dresses, one with removable eollars and euffs. _ Her shoes are cut on a sensible last and she wears hose the colour of her shoes in harmony with her dress. The attire of the business girl might well be applied to the school girl too, simplieity prevailing in both. On the street, the business and sehool girl dress simply also. A long ceoat entirely covering the dress, other means of judging us, exeept from our appearance, and so after all it remains to our ‘*‘feathers‘‘ to make or mar us. ‘*Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy‘"‘ were words of wisdom inâ€" deed, uttered by Polonius in **Hamâ€" let."‘ As he suggests, let us dress up to our income, but never above it, Our wardrobe should be planned on a well balanced seale, lest we have an exeess in some articles and a searâ€" city in others. _ We should generalâ€" ize in choosing our elothes, so when the inevitable question, ‘‘what shall I wear?"" arises it is immediately a fur choker and small, tight fitting hat. . Some of our more prosperous business and sehool girls are able to afford fur coats; these are also suitâ€" able and in perfeet harmony to her position. When the business girl dresses for a formal dance, she dresses to her heart‘s content, alâ€" ways, of course, remembering her eolour seheme and the evlours she wears best. Her hose and dainty slippers match her dance frock. Perâ€" haps an ornament adorns hbher hair, but the girl who is pretty and youthâ€" ful needs no decoration. When the senior high sehool girl dresses for the evening, simplieity accentuates her dress. Her evlours are in aecord and are beeoming to her. To assure ¢olâ€" ours becoming one, they should stmve to mateh the hair and eyeés, When the â€" Coâ€"ed _ graduates, _ simplicity should mark the dress for graduation, but hbher Prom frocks may be more elaborate. _ Dance frocks are made of light or heavy silks, velevts or metal eloths. Hose for the dance are always silk and shoes are high heeled. The fan is a necessary acâ€" cessory to the dancee. The fan is usâ€" W danswere ually in harmony with the dress but sometimes it is brilliantly coloured, standing out in direet contrast to an otherwise dark, colourless picture. Another type is the delicate, cream puff girl, with her fair Saxon hair and snowâ€"white complexion. _ For her were made all the ruffles and fluffy designs in pastel shades. The boyish clothes are not for her and she would do well to adhere to dainty feminine apparel. Mis Cream Puff‘s elothes are made to order. choosing a style, she must descide which will look best on herself, and having chosen it, she must choose a suitable material for the style. Now let us look whether it be f Miss TFailorâ€"made, 0 Masculinity assert s look at Athletie garb, be for Miss Athlete, 1ade, or Miss Cream Puff. asserts itself in sports clothes. Flannels, broadeloths and tweeds prevail _ Sports coats are slim affairs of three quarter length with uarrow collars and belts and reâ€" thos«e worn by the opposite sex. _ When a girl lays aside the clothes 5o delightfully feminine, and dons the mannish hiking or camping clothes, she should be dressed from the top of her soft felt hat to the toe of her heavy oxford. When she intends to live outâ€"ofâ€" doors she should be dressed for the outâ€"ofâ€"doors. _ Let it be understood that Knickerbockers and a Stetson do not make the outdoor woman. Not very long ago Ameriecan women wore unbecoming and inappropriate sports elothes, costumes wrongly eut, at the wrong time. _ Sports elothes worn at the wrong time are very luâ€" dicrous. _ Toâ€"day women‘s sports clothes are fashioned after English sports clothes, and there are styles for every oceasion. Women now enter sports in a workmanlike manner; they consider weather and comfort too, but they are always attractively dressed. Were Milady planning a mountain hike, she would wear a short eireular skirt or knickers, a heavy tweed jacket, chamois lined, a small felt hat, high top boots and gauntlets, and, of eaurse, she earries a cane. If she were going riding she would wear a tailored habit, and heavy ridâ€" ing boots, or she might wear cord breeches, boots laced at the ankle and a shaggy camel‘s hair sweater. Her head is scarfâ€"bound lest the high jumps disarrange her hair. On the golf links Milady wears a full skirt and a fancey pullover sweater, golf hose and sturdy oxfords and her head is banded. There is a time for every costume and every costume should be worn in its time and only in its time, The sports woman has learned what to wear and when to wear it. The girl of toâ€"day receives infinâ€" itely more ease and enjoyment from her elothes than did her sister of yesâ€" terâ€"year. Steadily, slowly but surely, our dress has changed until it seems to have reéeached the pinnacle of comâ€" fort, but we are not stopping, we are paissing the pinnacle going onward, ever orward, to the goal of harmonâ€" rous dress ""I am one hundred times as good as you areâ€"one hundred times as good as you are.‘"‘ A silver dollar and a oneâ€"eent startâ€" ed an argument, which deteriorated, as so many disputes do, into the pureâ€" ly personal.
