Smart Frocks for Children

TNHE problem Of the growing girrs
j. wardrobe has puzzled many an anX-
ious mother The "happer" period is not
an English institution, by any means.
Our own American girls soon get to the
age when they seem to consist entirely
of angles, and the problem of softening
these and dressing the young miss to the
best advantage is by no means small
one
Simplicity is, and always should be, the
keynote of child's clothing. Unneces-
sary inery is usually unbecoming, and is
always out of place. The fashionable

cost as much as grown ups'-are show

voiles for the young girls frock. PLAIN
colors are used, as well as striped

ham plaids which look so cool on a hot
day.
