FROCKS FOR LITTLE GIRL
Simple Styles That Are Always in
Favor and That Would Be Un-
wise to Change.

In children's frocks nowadays style
is quite as important as it is in re-
gard to grown-up garments. For
long time there has been comparative
ly little difference in the outline of
clothes for young girls, grown girls
and their still girlish mothers, but per-
haps this is to no small extent due to
the fact that grown-up lines have been
simple enough for children to adopt.
No doubt if our dressmakers sue
ceed in forcing upon us panniers and
draperies, general good taste will pre-
vent our defying little girls frocks to
match. and we shall leave them still
straight. slim and simple. Meantime
the coat and skirt of simple make,
with plain front panel, large revers
and collar and the inevitable sprink-
ling of buttons or long Cossack
frock or a pleated skirt and Magyar
blouse are each regarded as in their
proper place becoming to the school
girl or even to the smaller child.

binations of two fabrics, which she
may model after.
Two examples are shown here of
models that are easy to make and
pleasing to look at. A changeable chif-
fon taffeta (as brown, blue or green,
shot with black has an applique of
heavy ecru lace and pipings of black
satin. Little buttons of black satin
and a narrow girdle of the same add
a telling finish. For the touches of
black are most effective.
This model is designed for a slender
figure and is made so that it may be
worn with a chemisette and collar of
lace. There is a small applique of
silk passementerie Of gold, black and
the color of the gown.
The second model which has been
developed in bings blue and white or
black and white. The little coatee
is of a plain foulard in the color of
the body of the gown, with cuffs to
match. Little oblong covered but
tons in the plain fabric and pipings
of the figured material make a pretty
finish. The tie is a vivid green, but
black might be used instead. Lace
undersleeves and a chemisette are
worn with this model and its straight
lines and plain skirt recommend it to
The stout figure.

For the Ponaee Costume.

The 'natural-colored" girl is again
with us, meaning the girl who goes in
for costume wholly in the shade of
natural-colored linen or pongee. With
her tailored suit or frock of either
heavy linen or wash, she wears leath-
er pumps and Isle hoisery of match
Ing hue, linen petticoat bordered
and banded with coarse unbIeached
linen lace, a suede belt with self-col-
ored buckle and an outing hat of raf-
fla or Panama draped with natural
colored Shantung scarf. Finally, in
one hand she carries sunshade of
Shantung and natural wood, and in
the other a handbag of rafiia. For
country wear this sort of costume is
exceedingly knowing-looking and it is
decided relief in neighborhood
where all-white or white and color get
ups prevail.
