The
question
of
color
is
an
important
factor
in
clothing.
This
is
especially
true
in
summer
when
exposure
to
the
sun
makes
it
especially
necessary
to
consider
our
comfort.
All
dark-colored
clothing
absorbs
the
heat
and
the
sun
becomes
very
oppressive
to
the
wearer.
Then,
too,
black
and
dark-colored
coverings
shut
out
the
light,
another
objectionable
feature.
In
my
reference
to
sun
baths
in
the
preceding
chapter
on
Blood
Purification
I
placed
special
emphasis
upon
the
value
of
light
as
a
vitalizing
and
stimulating
factor
in
life
and
health.
Ordinarily
we
not
only
smother
our
skins
so
far
as
the
air
is
concerned,
but
we
also
shut
out
the
light,
hiding
our
bodies
in
a
cellar,
so
to
speak.
Our
bodies
need
light
as
well
as
air
and
for
this
reason
dark
colored
clothing
cannot
be
recommended.
For
warmth
when
in
the
sunshine
during
the
winter,
black
is
very
effective.
When
out
of
the
sunshine
black
is
cooler
in
winter
than
light-colored
fabrics
because
it
quickly
radiates
the
body
heat.
It
is
well
known
that
a
black
stove
radiates
the
heat
much
faster
than
a
nickel-plated
or
brightly
polished
stove.
White
or
light-colored
garments
are
advised
in
summer,
both
because
they
are
cooler
and
because
they
permit
the
light
to
reach
the
skin.
The
Arabs,
Bedouins
and
others
who
live
in
unforested
countries
where
they
are
much
exposed
to
the
tropical
sun
use
turbans
and
flowing
robes
of
white
as
a
means
of
keeping
cool.
Pure
white
is
often
unserviceable,
because
it
quickly
becomes
soiled,
and
therefore
gray
and
tan-
colored
garments
are
recommended.
