During the past two weeks, more, the Blade has
ceved number of communications from its readers and
friends relative to the observance of Christmas bv Free
thinkers, and these have raised exceedingly interest
ing discussion of the subject In this as in many other
questions Freethinkers somewhat divided but all
agree that the air of anctied holiness with which the
orthodox have surrounded the day. and the religious i'm
port given it, should be disregared while retaining in
many respects the and practices the season has
developed.
Some of correspondents exhibit tendency towards
extremes and a result find them expressing opposite
views One writes that for years he has abstaned from
giving receiving presents that day for the only
that the Christmas world has surrounded the custom with
the mythical Santa Claus, a genuine e while another
writes mother of children that she really enjoys the
Christmas tree and the air of mystery enhroudmg it, in
the minds of her children. For the part the others
express Indifference upon the subject

How to Apply the Design

execute it satisfactorily. One is.
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumb tacks or pins so
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white,
black, blue, red and yellow. | ad-
wise the use of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
Do not rest your hands or fingers
upon any part of the design you are
transferring, else the imprint of
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

piece frock. the one-piece apron. the
ne-piece corset cover, and SO on-until
you could mention almost every gar
ment a woman wears. from her topcoat
TO her undervcst. as being made in one
piece.
The idea OF combinations and har-
monies carried itself into the color field.
At first madame was satisfied to have a
tiny ruffie OF colored embroidery adorn-
ing her waist. Then she used heavier
and more attractive qualities of the COL
ored trimming. at times including a tie.
Soon after size began 10 have her
hosiery embroidered in colors to match
her costume. And. as II it were not
enough for women to carry out this
color scheme for themselves. they
planned for .heir children the wearing
of stockings to match their ribbon ac-
cessorles.
The men. feeling they are forced to
follow the fashions of women as closely
as possible now have the general color
scheme carried out in their socks, neck
ties and possibly. a delicate touch Of
color in their shirts.

The line may be made becoming to
every one. and when a long white

prevailing style was especially meant
for her.
The home dressmaker may rejoice
at the revival Of the collarless gown.
for she will find her work in making
up a frock or waist reduced by much

THERE are two ways to apply

upon which you wish to work it.
If .our material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen. lawn, batiste

is to lay the material over the de-
sign, and. with a well-pointed pencil.
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy, secure
a piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper you will find neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon your material.
