BY CYNVT1tA 0neY.
Tho structural lines of clothes
this seaspn are so simple that the
question SCATTERING last years need
not cause you any anxiety. First
Of all in favor of the old clothes,
the shabby ones, is the combination
Of different kinds of material in the
construction of gowns and suits.
Then the fact that color combine
tions are among the newest FASH
ions also gives you a chance to
make successful alterations. Yet
another economical advantage is
the fact that you can veil one ma
terial with. another.
Let us first talk of coats. You
can wear last years with very few
changes. Add pretty vest II you
have increased In bust measure. To
shorten a coat Is another way to
change its style. Should you have
laid by for a longer time than. last
year. say two years ago. an eton
coat with a plated skirt. you might
make 1t over into Russian blouse
suit or dress. Recut the skirt of
palmer pattern-the scantier styles
Of today permit it--and use mater
ial left over for the tail OF the
blouse or skirt section of the coat.
Russian blouses are extremely good
looking-and as rule, becoming.
Get a pattern Of the style you
have decided on; rip your old gar
ment apart; don't handle 1t more
than necessary-as 1t is apt to draw
1t out of shape, and us sharp
scissors carefully. Then steam thor.
oughly where stitches have ap-
peared and press out plaits on the
wrong side. Recut garment and
make as directed on envelope OF
your new pattern
Tt change the high closing stiff
regulation notch collar, correct 1t
and replace by rolling collar and
lapels, or even the new large sailor
collar (see illustration). You can
fasten 1t directly over the collar
and lapels IL 1t happens to be soft
rolling kind.
II the coat sleeve Is shabby, fin
ish with q cuff. Do not place 1t d.
rectly on wrist line, but have It
reach midway between wrist and

be sewed last of all. Cut the sleeve
from the old lining and attach at
the top and bottom, finishing the
armhole first. Be sure to have the
lining larger than the sleeves, So
as to give plenty of room at the
elbow.
II your dress is made of a plaid
material, add a band in a plain color
which harmonizes, and it will look
like new. Sew the band to the
lower part of the skirt. Add cuffs
to the sleeves and finish fronts with
a frill. You can also set a plain
yoke of a new material in the waist.
Cut this in one piece without a
seam on tie tie shoulder, extending It
tafittle low down over the arms, to
give it the long flat shoulder line
which is seen in new clothes (see
illustration). This serves a double
purpose. 1t will freshen the waist
il worn around the neck. and allow
it to be heightened IL it has become

girls, this is an excellent alteratienI
for you.

practically impossible.
Some time ago l had my eyes

most unpleasant fashion, she said.
II had occasion to give a dance at a
London hotel, to which I invited 230
guests. I had very carefully checked
these figures before the dance began.
yet before 1t was halfway through
tho manager of the hotel informed
me that there were already over 400
people in the rooms who claimed to be
