Those of embroidered mousseline, with

n great run is predicted for corded

preparing dotted and chenille silks, the

vest formed of fully gathered black
and white striped ribbon in marked
contrast to the red reverS. This bod
ice was of the jacket order, with tabs
at the waist. The sleeves were made
short to the elbow, with full sleeves
below of the striped silk ending in a
red cuff. The skirt was cut, as SO many

The pompadour element is a great
