Smart white kasha, jumper Suits are worn on the golf course, heavy white crepes and silks cut on straight'.lines with box-p!eated skirts are the last word for the tennis courts, suits of knitted silk and wool are suggested for general sports wear, coats of white kid for motoring de luxe, and fairy-like concoctions of white organdie for garden fetes and other summery pleasures. But white is not every woman's wear. One of the greatest authorities on the art of dressing has laid it down that only the young and old should wear undiluted white.
