warrents it. Large hands are usually on large arms, so wear long sleeved blouses or dresses to reduce the expanse of out- sized anatomy. But if you are big all over, then large extrem- ities are not out of proportion.

Muscles--Large muscles, too, cannot be obseured and must simply be made in eonspicuous. If you have large calf muscles, don't wear seamless hose, the seams will make the leg look slimmer as will a pointed heel reinforcement. Large arms, neck or broad shoulders call for clothing that covers or plays down these areas or attracts the attention elsewhere.

Sloping Shoulder --This is one of the anatomical differences between men and women and when pronounced, cannot be obliterated and must be simply be covered. Females have a rather flatter junetion between neek and shoulders while males have a sloping junction due to the development of the museles running between the spine and the shoulder, which are used in lifting. When these are too obvious, it is necessary to wear high-necked blouses and dresses or ones with a full loose collar that ean-- ouflages this area.

Adams Apple--The larynx is larger and more prominent in the male because the voice is deeper and it takes longer and heavier voeal cords to make the deeper voice. Again, this is a sex differentiating feature that cannot be changed, but can b minimized. In the first place, keep the shin down. In the se ond place, don't wear choker necklaces, as they focus attention on the neck and bring out any irregularities in it. Thirdly, use a darker shade of foundation on the larynx, as darker color de-emphasizes and makes things seem to resede, while lighter shades emphasize and bring the area forward.

Elbow Joint--You may never have noticed, but a man s arm hangs straight from the shoulder, while a woman's arm has a slight outward bend at the elbow. This is because the woman's hips are wider and the arm must be bent to clear then. This con- dition can be simulated by keeping the arms rotated outward slightly, which makes them swing a little wider. With hip pad- ding, this is necessary anyway.
