Before eating a garment for a
child always hold up the parts Of the
pattern 10 determine where sltera-
tions may be required. Most pat
terms are cut on absolutely perfect and
correct lines, but as children vary more
in their proportions than their elders,
even greater care must be exercised
in cutting and fitting. One child
is larger or longer wasted than an
other, the same breast measure may
find variations in size Of waist, and
soon in other details. II on holding
the pattern up to the child, it is found
TO be too long wasted, take a plait
through the center pattern between
waist lire and breast II unusually
large about the waist, in cutting the
garment slope gradually out, from
armhole to waist line, this giving extra
fullness.

a little wider band, and add an extra

add much to the becoming effect Of
the dress.
In making the skirt take every
care to have it absolutely even
around the bottom. Nothing is more
destructive to the appearance Of a
frock than to have an imperfect slope
at the lower edge. A very common
fault is for skirt to dip at the back.
and apparently ride up in the front.
Determine the required distance from
the floor and then let the child stand
upon table, and by means Of a yard
stick, measure accurately all around
the skirt.

n KhAfo the newest ana most
interesting feature is the very
full skirts that are cut uneven
or TO form points at their lower edges.
They are not essentially practical fol
one can hardly think Of apply
ing them 70 anything but the ex-
ceptional costume and it is
hardly probable that they will
come into anything like general
use, but they are interesting and smart
and certainly a departure. A very
beautiful gown that has Just been un-
packed, is made Of faillc silk in one Of
the rich and beautiful shades Of blue
that is not quite so dark as navy.
The skirt is cut in nine cores that
fare most generously at their lower
edge but are by no means narrow at
the belt for at that point, the skirt is
gathered Each gore is shaped to be
longer at the edges than at the center
and while the difference is not great,
It gives very novel line. the shape
Of each gore being not unlike that Of
an umbrella section. At the seams are
sewed little drop ornaments and as
a matter Of course, the skirt is short.
The shaped edge also means that the
under side is apparent as the wearer
walks, consequently the skirt is faced
with white satin and the lower edges
OF this facing is finished with silver
braid approximately one inch in
width. The bodice illustrates the
tendency toward simplicity and re-
serve in trimming and at the same
time gives evidence Of the rosourceful-
ness with which these simple models
are relieved Of over-severity. IL is
cut out at the front in the form Of a
rectangle and at the back. it is surpice
and the Jsurplce ends are extended
to form sash. The guimpe is Of
white satin with high stock collar
and two rows OF tiny white satin but
tons down the front outlining the edge
Of the bodice and on the white satin
is row Of silver braid. The closing
is made at the front where the edges
are laced together with silk lacing

touch Of bright color the artists band

For the coat suits. plated skirts and
skirts Of circular shaping have great
vogue. A new one that has especial
value because Of the use Of the colors
is made Of canvas cloth in a rich deep
blue. The skirt is laid in a succession
OF rather narrow box-plaits and over
each plat there is a little trimming
Of black braid 20 about yoke depth.

used on the coat, but they combine
black with dark blue and have centers
Of the tango color that exactly match

With the Spring ones interest natu-
rally turns to the coat suit but this
season we also will see great many
one-piece dresses designed for street
wear as soon as the weather is mild
enough TO allow Of their use. A hand
some one seen az an important opening
is made Of a dark blue gabardine and
both color and material are pro-
nounced favoritcs. There is much
hariug skirt Of circular shaping but
which also includes box plaits and
there are narrow box-plaits ON the

Of being cut in succession Of full
cores with boy-plait over each seam
and the box-plaits are wide az the
lower edge, tapering to narrow at the
belt.
