Frills of FOOTING.

Plated frills of white tulle footing
are much in evidence on pretty blouses
of colored foulard. They are intend

arate skirt, but the colors should
match, thus making the dress at least
harmonious, if not true example of
the one-piece frock.
The footing frill usually is edged
with little strip of straight or bias
silk like the blouse, and its covered
buttons and small bow tie are of plain
foulard to match the general color
scheme.

There is quite return to the once.
popular fashion of having black frock
for genuine service Every woman
even with an elaborate wardrobe
knows there are some hours when
everything seems to be in need OF

For just such occasions she has a
smart one-piece frock of black hang

silk voile, for there has been found
no better fabric for this purpose. 1t
fits the figure. has an added belt OF
patent leather run through slides of
watered silk, and is fastened down
the back with hooks and eyes.
The skirt clears the groun by two
inches and has hem of black wa.

or three-quarter length. Each woman
is In go-as-you-please race concern

small folds from shoulder to belt. has

This lace is repeated in a narrow

In Pastel coIors.

Plain materials are much easier oi
construction than are those of striped
barred and fiowered material. Per
haps 1t is this that has made the deli
cate pastel-colored batiste favorite
with the home dressmaker.
The fact remains that many of the
more expensive sheer linen models in
these delicate tones are copied by the
amateur in the less expensive ba
tiste.
A favored method of finishing the
batiste frock is the basting together
of its various parts and the holding
of them in place by a very close and
even feather-stitching.

Evidence of the popular interest in

nearly 100000 people have attended
