background of silk for a good effect.
Having the lining separate gives OPP
portukity for the constant pressing
they need.
Suitable and becoming accessories
for these evening frocks must be in
Guided in the school wardrobe, and
not the least of these is a neck chain
Of some sort. All the world of school
girls loves jewelry but it need not
necessarily be of the expensive va
riety.
The long turquoise and coral beads
are strikingly effective when wound
several times around the throat in
necklace fashion. The gold link chains
of a thread-Iike fineness are also
charming, and for these there are
round and oval lockets in chased gold
and blue enamel. Then a bracelet of
some simple description will make the
heart of its youthful wearer still light
err and add to the chic of her toilette;
while her dance card must hang in a
gilt frame, for all the world like the
border OF a tiny slate This may hang
with her tiny spangled fan by ribbon
from her belt, or it may emerge from
a silk bag which matches the costume,
and is swung over the left arm by
wider ribbon.
Not even children of the kindergarten
age are exempt from the need of festive
garments, as afternoon dances also
frequently inaugurate the opening of
their schools. So, even for the small
est fry party frocks and gallant Jack
Tar dance suits may be bought ready
made at the OutfitterS, at prices that
astonish, so sweet are the little gar
ments. Sometimes the prices astonish
the other way, but it is usually import
ed dearness, and nine times out of ten
the delightfulness of the get-up atones
for its expense.
For example, a party frock for a
girl of 6 was of white silk tulle gar
landed with tiny pink flowers. The
full gathered skirt, being mounted
over several similar ones, had a ballet
doll lock. wht4e the tiny sleeveless
bodteeEaYa $ ,tpVlsand held on the shout
ders only by a band of the flowers A
wreath of the same kind of flowers,
with narrow ribbon streamers, was
provided for the head. A wrap for the
costume was of pale pink gros grain
trimmed with embroidered frills of the
same.
Effective and comfortable dancing
shoes for these small maids are satin
ballet sandals, whose narrow ribbons
are wound about the ankle in genuine
ballet fashion. Dancing foot gear for
boys of all ages are patent leather
pumps, which will be worn during the
winter with white stockings and sailor
suits of white cloth. Nautical emblems
in colored embroidery and silk ties
will bedeck the suits. while the white
socks will be clicked with color or
black.
OF course, many children and quite
large girls as we'll are unable to stand
the exposure of a cut-out bodice once
the autumn winds have begun to blow
But for the smaller maids. the effect
of a low cut is made by q white CAMP
and the same stylish pretension may
be obtained for larger girls with white
fuckers of varying widths. AS long
as white is next the face the dressy
look is preserved. But a collarless
tucker or CAMP will promote a more
gala look than will one with a high
stock.
In short, bare necks are the fashion,
and because of this almost as many
soft muff1ings are provided for the
juvenile dancers as for the grown-up
Pretty shawls are seen in ice woods in
white and baby pinks and blues, whose
fairy-like fineness renders them
especially suitable to young folk. Ro-
