Childhood is coated this year prefer
ably in velvet or corduroy Like the
grOWn-upS and whether they took il from

ton. Sand and putty color velvet or
corduroy is very popular and pretty es-
peclally when collared, cuffed and belted
I in brown fur. The long waisted side
belted models prevail above all others
for the favored coats. Brown is another
popular shade and black velvet trimmed
In tallless ermine is very chic indeed
for Miss Six Year Old.
Little inverted bowl shaped hats of
velvet with band of fur to match that

ship is showing adorable little scuttle
shaped bOnnets of pale blue, pale pink
or white chiffon velvet with just a nose
gay of tiny pink roscbuds and forget

request is almost universal for a
bath room with every suite.
In ancient Rome and Greece a
mans financial status was esti-
mated by the number Of baths his
house contained. There was, indeed,
a "bathtub class" of a few very
wealthy people. Today we have ex-
tended the "bathtub class" and
given il universal suffrage.
If we have the means. the most
efficient shape of bathtub is the
square model in which the base
directly Joins the floor, so that there
is no space between tub and floor

NEW YORK Nov. 21-With their
skirts up to their shoetops and Their
, frocks hanging loose and waistless from
| their shoulders like q SiX-year-old, all
the big girls seem to be stealing their
! fashion ideas from the little girls these
days. Naturally, then, it is up to the
little girls to be very well dressed, in
deed, since they become miniature
models a la mode for the grown-ups.
At the recent fashion fete models for
an American-made maid of tender years
were as important a feature of the
exhibit as were any of those for the
older members of the American beauty
family.
One lovely little model Of softest old
rose velvet was cut in one piece ana
hung straight from the little, low, round
neck to the knees. Hand embroidery in
different shades of rose silk hordcrcd
the neck and sleeves, which were elbow
length, and also was carried out down
the front of the dress in panel effect
The other little dress of knife-pleated
white chiffon hung from the round BABY
neck in a long blouse effect to the ps;
where it was girded in by garland
Of tinv pink ribbon rosebuds. These
finished the short sleeves and the neck
also.
Embroidered net over 1esh-colored
silk makes a party frock to bring de-
light to the heart of any little woman.
Let three tiny ruffles. of the net outline
the short waist, the elbows, and the
sleeves and five on the snort, run

very charming. Little white dresses
