Perfect Women Are The Chinese

BEST DEESSED IN THE WORLD

'•Only one. race of women aro never untidy, never fussed or bothered in appearance always perfectly dressed, immaculate in face, hands and hair, have perfect carriage and charming,

modest manners. They are the Chinese.” This is the view of Miss Helen M. Davis, a Singapore fashion expert. “The Chinese women aro the best dressed women in the world to-day,” she said, “and the Shanghai dress is the loveliest style yet invented. “Not all the dress-makers of Lon’ don, Paris and New York have evolved a more useful or more flattering frock.’ ’ Miss Davis, an English woman, who

is quoted by the British United Press, said that British and French women “cut their clothes in odd pieces, vary the natural waist and disguise the beauty of their bouies with bulky material.’ ’
