Women Past ^0 Can Veil Their Age BY EDNA MILES 1LTANY women, when they reach the far side of forty, decide they * 1 are past the age for such fripperies as veils. Actually, they have just achieved the point at which veils are most necessary— and usually—most becom 'g. If crow’s feet, frown creases or lines have begun to mar the beauty of your face, now’s the time to learn about the flattery of veils. In the same way that a softly-shaded light plays down facial imperfections, a bit of netting across your face will veil the tell-tale marks of age. Experiment a little, until you’ve found the veil that does most for you. The shape of your face, your hair-do and your hat are all factors to be considered. Remember, an observer’s eye will see the lower edge of the veil as a line across the face. Rarely is it attractive to see a flat, horizontal line sweeping across a woman’s face. This tends to make the cheeks look broad. Round the bottom of the veil upward a bit, fallowing the contour of the cheekbones, or, if it’s a long veil, the jaw line. 1 Omaha Alumna® T to Gather— Omaha alumnae of St. Mary’s academy in O’Neill will meet for a 6 o’clock dinner Sunday, April 22, at the Regis hotel.
