Materials Familiar to Past Genera

An inspection of the materials for
summer wear show that certain old
time, reliable materials have returned
under new names, but our mothers
will recognize their friends In the
shape of the coarse linens that re-
semble oatmeal cloth, hopsacking
and the various basket weaves.
The feature that commends itself
to many women is the fact that the
weave is so evident that it serves for
decoration, and, therefore, requires
very little other ornamentation. Sim
pie braiding designs or buttons are
generally sufficient for the morning
dress, while the square meshes of
these coarse fabrics form excellent
backgrounds upon which designs in

linen threads) may be added
