Pahias, clothes are being simplihed and
made more comfortable just as garments
for their elders are. Sensible mothers ~
not bundle their infants up IN long ciothes
any more. The babies are most appreci-
alive. They express their enthusiasm III
kicks of joy. Their first slips ana wrap
pers are made to come a few lncnes oeioW

growth Of the youngsters
The regulation short dresses tnat ois-
play their boottees appear before anybody
is aware Of a change. Old fashloneo
mothers. who still make a serious and
solemn function of putting their infants
into short clothes at a prescribed DATE
in a prescribed way. would lessen their
care and increase the comfort of their on
spring by adopting short clothes from the
start.
If everybody, irrespective of their eligi
bility, by means of playing golf. had not
already adopted the wonderfully attrac-
tive and comfortable golf cape, they
would certainly lose no time in doing SO
now. for the new capes are something,
once seen, to possess. Outside the many
little odd new features, they are longer
than those of last year, full -three-quarter
length, in fact.
To start in, a charmingly modest one
in softest gray, has its many pointed yoke
covered with rows of stitching. Stitched
is the trimming otherwise, the
throat strap showing two dashing brass
buttons. The stitched collar is fiuted; it
is of the storm variety.
Combinations are the great vogue. One
showing green plaid on one side and soft
tan on the other has the cape proper
of the tan edged with fringe. This falls
over a band of the plaid, which also
forms the hood and revers, Steel buttons
and buckles complete the scheme.
But one of the newest and most charm
ing manifestations shows plaids Gin differ
ent effects on both sides. It has a strap
ping finish of plain green with seven rows
of red stitching, and the three straps
which fasten it boast six brass buttons.
This cape has a most novel hood, too,
In fact, it looks like a moderate sized cap
turned up around the edge to a depth OF
four or five inches 1t is a love and costs
s27.5o.
Another departure Is the slightly fitted
back of one in gray, the plaidS on the re-
verse side being In beautiful puppies. The
effect of fitting comes from stitching ar
inverted box plat down to the waist line
Stitched gray ~strapping trims the plait
collar, hood and revers, as well as tht
cape proper. This cape dips in the bacl
and has curved fronts.
A rich affair in red, with dim browns
and greens, fastens with a queer broat
strap to the left. This strap shows on
large smoked pearl button. The 'front.'
are edged with fringe.
Still another shows a new finish. 1t 4

the plaid. This is outlined at either edg,
with scalloped and stitched ~strapping.
