small girls as well as small boys, but the
models for the tiny girls are usually OF the
one piece type with the plaits starting from
a fat yoke. A very good little model OF
this description figures among the small
sketches, it's yoke being cut In three tabs
at the bottom and all Of It's edges being out
In small soallops and buttonholed.
The yoke may be in the frock material
embroidered with white, or in white but
tonholed and embroidered with the color
Of the frock. A round yoke Is used for other
models of similar character and the neck
is usually of the Dutch type.
Dainty frooks are made up In white lawn
with colored hens. For the very small girl
extremely narrow hens are preferred. b,ts
the wider hems bestowed upon frocks for
children q few years older are still more
effective. Blue and pink are the preferred
colors for this as for all other very youthful
purposes and the hens may be attached by
open stitching of one kind or another.
Apropos Of the childish colors we have
noticed at various resorts this season one
slight tendency which ia at odds with the
prevailing good taste concerning children's
dress to which we have already referred.
Some mothers, striving apparently for orig
inality, have been using oolors other than
the traditional blue and pink for the hair

attractive models both In linen and in
rajah in a creamy buff. almost as deep as
cafe au lait, with white collar, belt. buttons
and shield and q little scarf Of black.
Piping is ussd upon some of the little
SIN ock suits, the piping usually being in
white. We have seen charming pique
models in ecru. in. pink and in light blue.
piped with white and worn with white
shield and belt.
One Of the models pictured among he
small sketches had this white piping and
was original In that it dispensed with a
collar, the fronts crossing without any neck
finish save the line Of piping. and buttoning
a little toward the left side with one big
white pearl button. A belt Of the suit
material also fastened in front with one Of
the big white buttons.
A model almost exactly similar to this,
though without the piping, was Of gray
linen. a cool, rather light gray, soft and
creamy enough to be becoming. Heavily
stitched edges. pearl buttons. a white
