LATEST FASHION NOTES

IN the absence of the French races
 and the cabled reports to which
 we are accustomed. those held within our own borders have assumed an unusual interest from the stand point of matters sartorial as well as from very legitimate one. Various evidences are to be glcaned from the costumes worn, not alone for the present but also for the future The weather has not been warm enough to warrant the wearing of summer costumes. Among the suits of serge and the like, have been seen novelties that not alone are good for the present, they also indicate what may be looked for when warm weather shall have come and gone. Plaits always take their place in spring and autumn styles. A handsome costume worn upon an important day was ade with circular skirt of plaid showing yellow and green bars over a blue foundation, with a short jacket open at the front, of blue serge piped with yellow cloth and beneath the jacket, a wide girdle giving a waistcoat effect, entirely of the yellow, laced together at the front with blue velvet ribbon.
 Among the one-piece gowns or redingotes worn were notable a model of tiny black and white checked cheviot and a second one of natural colored pongee. The cheviot redingote showed a rather low waist-hne and was loose fitting and the faring skirt was joined to the low bodice with a shirred heading nearly two inches deep. The pongee costume, while it may be classed under the head of redingote, is really ccat dress and surely indicative of the princess model that undoubtedly will be heralded with the next change of season. At the front, the bodice and skirt were in one, with the skirt laid in plaits to give fashionable flare. At the back, the plain bodice lapped over the box plaited skirt we'll below the waist-li and the front of the gown and the under arm sections of the bodice were richly embroidered with soutache com bining self color with green. The high military collar was of green velvet and
Arizona republican., 1915-07-22

the long close-htting sleeves were en- broidered in harmony with the fronts Costumes of the sort always mean a certain smartness and are admirable for cool days; they will. undoubtedly, be worn for few weeks now and V.ll appear in bigger numbers with the coming of autumn.
 Embroidery takes great many interesting forms. Narrow braid Is lavishly used applied over stamped designs, embroidery with silks and with cotton threads is much to bc seen, worked over rather bold and effective designs and there is also a still greater novelty in the form of embroidery with heads and with bugles We have, to be sure, seen beads used for embroidery in pre- vious seasons, but the buglcs are put to a rather novel use in being made to simulate alarming. A gown of white taHeta shows d treatment Of this sort, the design being a flat, convention alized pansy utilized both upon the bodice and the skirt with exceedingly good effect An unusual gown of blue tafieta is made with pockets hanging from the belt and these pockets are covered with alarming in heavy white silk Both are effective, the genuine alarming and also alarming simulated by means of the long busles and they will be used in numberless interesting ways.
 The possibilities of picturesqueness to be found in prevailing fashions seem almost without limit, for not alone the genral trend of the styles, and the handling of the materials and the Cclors all lend themselves to such re- suits with singular success. A most fascinating gown which is to make part of a June rousseau, gives evi- dence of that fact and is interesting for several reasons. The material is two-toned tai1eta combining coral pink with light gold. The skirt is quite straight, five yards around and it IS gathered at the upper edge, but at the lower edge 1t IS finished with a picot edge and seven very narrow tucks, handsewed, the group of tucks being placed about six inches from the lower

For the long sleeves, gather ar the lower edges between the two crosses. jcin the ends of the cuffs and join to the sleeves with the notchcs meeting and the large reriorations at the scans. Whether the sleeves are long or short. gather them al their upper edges between the two crosses and place in the arm-holes, with the seams al the n1tchcs in the front of the lining and the single large pcrforat,ons bind the seams with d narrow bias strip of the lining material or with the bias tape that can be purchased ready for use. Finish the neck edge in any way that you like with little frills of lace or with the picot edging that can be whipped on by hand, or, if you use the high neck join the collar to the neck edge with the center fronts and hacks exactly meeting. As next stcp. finish the ends and the lower edges Of the bertha and trim with the ruches illustrated or in any way that you like and then arrange over the blouse. Turn up over the yoke. allow ing the seam allowance to extend down over the blouse. Pin the center front, center acks exactly together and the

A TO prettier dress for little girls
 VI ever was devised than the one
 with the bertha finishing the round neck. This summer 1t is ex- ceedinEly fashionable and the model shown here Is one of the prettiest as well as the simplest that the sea son has to offer. Mothers who find it necessary to replenish the wardrobe in midsummer will be exceedingly glad of the design for the lovely mus lins, voiles. batistes and fabrics of the sort that just now are to be pur- chased at real bargain prices. Those who are looking ahead and using the midsummer leisure to provide for the coming season. Will like it for challis and for the similar materials of be- tween season wear. Since 1t can be made with either long or short sleeves and with or without the body lining. II Is suited to all season. The skirt is a simple straight one. but the hem and the graduated tucks make a most attractive finish. 50 that with really very little labor, the dress produces a most satisfactory result. In the diagram Is shown the test method of laying the pattern out on material thirty-six inches in width and since that width is the one to be found in a great variety of materials, it makes the best for our purpcse. As will be seen at a glance, if wider material Is used, there will he more or less waste. the picciny for the skirt will be mar rover. but otherwise there will be no material change. The material IS folded lensthwise both for the dress and for the .:1ing, but as a matter of course. the lining is quite separate and made from a different material from the dress.
 After marking all around the outside edges cf the pattern with a tracing wheel or with tailors chalk as may be better for tie special material, cut out carefully, allowing seams as wide as your material renders desirable, narrower if it Is closely woven, wider fl it will fray readily. Then lay the pattern on the material. mark all the perforations and the notches with care and then mark through to thc under s.de with the tailors' tacks that have cen described in earlier lessons. In the picture. the short sleeves are used and the pattern Las been cut through on the cross line of Pcrforaiions hcfore placing on the material. In the diagram

 To make the skirt, join the pieces as your material has rendered neces- sary and bind each edge of each seam separately with little strip of ma terial if the material is thin enough for that or with binding tape and press the seams open. Then close tho back seam below the notches, under

Pin together at these various points to Le sure they are accurate; draw up your gathers as required to fit the lining and baste into place carefully at the upper. the lower and the arm hole edges and tack the back ed yes one to the other Next. stitch the upper edge into place firmly.
 To make the sleeves, close the seams with the notches exactly rleeting. For the short sleeves, gather at the lower

To make without the blouse lining, cut the pattern of the lining through to the seam width below the second line of perforations from the upper edge and use as a pattern for the yoke. Lay it over yolling material and cut as already directed. Make the blouse exactly as 1 have told you to do for the lined waist, but draw up the upper edge and arrange it over the yoke with the upper edge at the line of perfora- tions and stitch firmly into place. The rest of the work is exactly the same as for the lined waist with only the difference that when the lining is omitted, it is advisable to make double seams on the waist, whereas, when it is lined, it is necessary only to make single seams and press them open. For the sleeves and the back of the skirt, always use the double seams.
