Preferably the headgear has a lower fabric portion encircling a portion of the nose and face of the person wearing it and having a top edge which falls along a line lying approximately at the bottom of the eyes of such person and a bottom edge which falls along a line lying at approximately at the bottom of the jaws and chin of such person.
