stead of the usual blouse Of silk or mo-
hair there is a knitted jersey, which
comes below the hip. and has a sailor
collar and sleeves to the elbow; and
though the jersey fits prettily, it does not
cling too tightly to the figure. 1t is,
moreover, knitted from rather heavy
worsted. and will prove a protection from
cold when one comes out Of the water
The short runk-bloomers are also knit

models are shown. the white trimmings

braid on the mohair skirt.
