IN PARTY REGALLA
kPPRoPRIATE COSTUME FOR THE
SMALL GIRL AND BOY.
Correctness 10 as Much In Demand
fer tho Tots as for Their So
nIors-some Of tho More
Important Points.


From the dainty hair ribbon to the
~ee slipper or pump. the little girls
party equipment demands no end OF
ezscting details and her little broth
eTs gala get-up. TOO. requires strict
attention to the small things. the
socks and pumps and gloves which
are 50 easily forgotten By the busy
mother.
The eorrec. thing IN party footwear
Tor little girls this season is the pump
with the ankle strap. This Is usually
chosen in blue or pink hid to match
tho color scheme OF the dress. but
white kid and black patent leather are
also used. These pumps are worn
With hose to match. either In silk or
isle thread. For little girls-that is.
girls under eleven or twelve-socks
are sttll as popular az ever; though.
OF course, even the little tots some
times appear at parties in stockings
Little boys wear white silk or Isle
thread socks or stockings, usually
without any color. The plain patent
leather pump continues to be the cor
rect thing for boys. both little and
big.
Gloves should always be worn at
dancing party. although there is no
reason why they should not be dis
carded after the dancing Is over. Lit
tie girls have long silk gloves to
match the ribbons on their frocks. and
little boys the one button white thread
gloves The chief advantage OF this
style is that Of serviceability, for both
silk and cotton gloves are washable
and infinitely cooler than those Of kid
or channels.
The hair ribbon Is surely the mos;
bothersome OF all accessories and a
detail that nowadays costs a pretty
penny. This summer fashion dictates
very wide hair ribbons-of the same
width, in fact as those used for the
sash. OF course. there are some
mothers who always prefer the light
pinks for party wear. and these colors
are always becoming to the fair skins
Of children. However. the very new.
est thing is the lowered ribbons. and
such lowered ribbons as are a real
joy to behold. They are printed In the
most delicately harmonized shades OF
green, violet. blue. grays and yellows
that the combined efforts OF the de.
signers and the manufacturers could
devise.
The brilliant Roman stripes are also
fashionable once more. and surely
these gay colors lend greatly to the
fresh daintiness OF the little lingerie
frocks. Except for very little girls
the sashes are not tied in the back.
but either on the side or on the side
front The bows are usually made IN
the ribbon once and for all, so as TO
keep the sash free from creases.
The pretty fashion OF running the
ribbon under the sheer lingerie frock
and drawing II through only where tho
bow is tied-a fashion popular with
grownups as well-has been adopted
IN the newest hand embroidered
French party frocks. Besides the
Sashes made from ribbons. little girls
have made-up sashes OF satin or silk
designed to go with their party dress
es. These are usually finished with
tassels or rosettes OF the silk or satin.
AS children's thin dresses are al.
ways made with round or Dutch neck.
never with sign OF collar. a pretty
though not necessary adjunct to the
gala get-up is the string OF gold beads
or locket and chain. Good taste ,ol.
crates only the simplest OF jewel.y.
