BOYS BLOUSE COSTUME
OF Blue and Red FLANNEL

For the little men some charming
costumes are seen that may be easily
and becomingly made of serviceable
materials. The blouse style Of cos
tune is highly commended as it in
sures perfect freedom and comfort.
When two fabrics are unietd the effect
is more dressy and trifling amount of
braid is necessary to give it neat COM
pletion. The costume shown in the il
lustration is of blue and red serge.
The blouse droops at the waist in the
customary manner, and the closing is
made with studs through the box plat
