that the heavier damask not only wears

hangs in better lines and is more easily

Every woman should know how to
make her own dresses. even if she
doesn't have to do her W sewing.
This applies to wealthy women as well
as those in moderate circumstances,
and the value of such knowledge has
been proved on numerous occasions. If
a woman knows how a dress ought to
be made. she will know whether or not
it has been correctly made after it
comes to her from tho dressmaker. AL
though she is one who doesn't have to,
Mrs. Victor Howard Metcalf, wife of
the secretary of the navy, can make
her own gowns, and she has the repu-
tation of being one of h best dressed
women in Washington. She believes in
a wide scope for women's work, but
thinks the beginning should be made
at home.
