of the rope about this; then with a
coarse needle, threaded with the
stem of one Of the crosses. sew the
turns one to another, using a plain
over-and-over stitch. Splice other
punches of grass on to the rope as
you need them, and sew each turn of
the coil to the preceding one, as you
build. If you haven't a coarse enough
needle, you can use linen thread to
sew with, instead of strands Of grass.
Draw the stitches tight, to make a
firm structure, and, while building one
turn upon another, pull in or spread
them according to how much and
where you want the sides of the bas-
ket to flare. When the rim OF the
basket has been formed, cut off the
end of the coil, and trim back the
grass blades to different lengths so the
coil will bevel off on to the rim.

The little beauty of the family, hav-
ing attained the responsibilities that
begin with her fifth or sixth year,
finds plenty of opportunity for wear
ing finery. What with Easter and
June weddings that require her serv-
ices as flower girl, and birthday and
other parties that are always happen
ing among her friends, her social
training is well begun.
A frock that will grace any occa-
sion that requires fine dress is made
of sheer batiste and fine val lace.
The addition of little very fine hand
embroidery will enrich it to the high
est degree of elegance in the dress of
the small girl. Several silk slips to
be worn under it make a variety of
colors possible, for the diaphanous ba-
tiste and the val lace veil all colors
beautifully.
Other sheer cotton fabrics may be
used for dresses of this kind, and the
various houncings, with narrow and
daintily embroidered edgings, are very
effective in little dresses with full
skirts Joined to short-waisted bodies.
These bodies are finished at the high
waist line with one or two narrow
frills, made of the embroidered edge
from the flouncing, and the short
sleeves are merely underfrills Of 1t.

this requires explanation. A piece of
wire-electric bell-wire will do-forms
a center core of the handle, to give it
Stiffness, and several strands OF grass
ase placed outside of the wire to add
thickness; then all are bound togeth-
er and concealed by a strand of grass
Zig. g.. To attach the handle, bend
the end of the wire core around the
rim of the basket, as shown in Fig.
z; and fasten the ends of the grasses
to the rim, also. Fig. 9 shows a bas.
kst with another style of handle made
in the same way.
Square baskets Gig. 81 are not sub
stantial unless REINFORCED by other
material. The best scheme is to use
a cardboard box as a foundation, and
to coil the grass rope around the sides

inside may be lined with silk instead
of grass

grasses OF equal length TO make d
thickness a triffe less than the diane
ter of a pencil Then grasp these
grasses in your left hand. and taking
long strand of grass, wrap it around
the bunch from stem ends to blade
ends, bringing the turns close to one
another as shown in Fig. l. When
you reach the ends of the grass
blades, take another bunch of equal
thickness and splice them on to the
ends of the first bunch, tapping the
ends about an inch Gig. p, and bind
ing them together with the covering
strand of grass Gig. 81. An 1S-inch
rope is long enough to. begin the bas-
ket with. Fig shows how to start
a basket bottom. Coil the end OF
the rope over on to itself, to form a
small button, and coil several turns

Two views of a very fashionable
couture are given in the picture shown
above. This is one of several varia-
hair is drawn back from the fore
head and brought forward over the
ears. Those who are young eonugh,
or look young enough, and have the
face for it, may attempt it as it is
pictured.
The style is not generally becom-
ing but nevertheless has many de-
voices. II makes up in neatness and
finish" what it lacks in softness, and
It imparts the charm that lies in look
ing well-groomed to those who wear il.
To dress IL, the hair may be waved
or marcelled and parted at point
on the forehead above each temple.
The hair at the top of the forehead is
then combed straight back and even
when waved lies fiat to the head with
no hint of fiuffiness about IL. At the
sides IL is brought forward and curved
over the ears and the ends concealed
under coils across the back of the
head. One or two small ringlets are
allowed over the temple, and a recent
version of this style has three short
curls at the nape of the neck.
The same arrangement of the front
hair appears with the back hair
brought to the top of the head and
coiled into long pun extending to
the middle of the crown at the back.
In another variation of the style all
the hair is combed back from the face
and brought to the top Of the crown,
where 1t forms a loop of hair tied to
The Yale expositor., 1916-04-06

place with narrow ribbon. This is
couture for evening dress.
A pretty style recently introduced
shows the hair with an almost i'm
perceptible wave parted at the left
side and combed across the head to
the right side. II is brought little
way down in a curve at the middle
of the forehead and arranged in four
soft coils across the back of the head,
against the nape of the neck. A jew.
eled comb is thrust in the hair above
the coils and at the right of the
crown.
The most becoming of recent styles
has a small pompadour across the fore
head and stands out at the sides, sug-
costing the bobbed hair of children
In this style the back hair is coiled
low across the head. In the latest
coiffures short curls are appearing
sometimes at each side of the face and
sometimes in the coils at the back of
the head. and there is reason to be-
lieve that the popularity of the uncovN
cred forehead is waning.

Pineapple Industry Large.

The pineapple production of the Ha.
waiian islands for 1915 will approx
mate 100000 cases of canned product
so experts report. Years ago the pine.
apple canneries threw away the cores
parings and trimmings as refuse. Now.
adays the one-time refuse is convert
ed into a mash from which pineapple
Juice is extracted. the cores are cut
into cubes and used in the manufac
ture of glace fruit. and no part of the
pineapple is lost.

port the uprights. The upper end of
clothespole has a right-angie notch
cut in it for the clothesline to fit in
This notched end of the pole is used
for the base end of the jump stand
ard, and fits over a cross strip A Gig
A., fastened between the sides of the
box, in the center of the bottom. Cut
pair of sticks to fit lengthwise be-
tween the ends of the box (B, Fig. 81,
and fasten them just far enough apart
to permit the clothespole to slip down
between them. Then cut the pair of
sticks c of the same length as stick A,
cross them over the pair of sticks B,
and fasten between the box sides with
just enough space left between to
The Yale expositor., 1916-04-06

allow for the width of the clothespole
upright.
1t is not necessary to mark the
height measurements upon the up
rights. You can have an additional
pole so marked, for the purpose of ad-
1usting the cross bar or rope to
heights desired. Still, it simplifies
matters to have the poles graduated.
Rule the foot" divisions across one
face and edge, the "half-foot" divisions
across the face, and the Inch" divis-
ions halfway across the face. Mark
the foot" divisions 81" 90" 49," etc.

strip of tin about Ia inches wide from
a tin can, for the sleeve F, tack one
end of this to the straight face of
block ID, bend 1t around the pole, make
the other end meet the first end, and
tack to block ID. Make the sleeves fit
loosely so they will slide up and down
the poles easily. To fasten them at
the desired point, it is necessary to

and block d. and push It up until the

Little overbodies of taffeta or other
light silk are worn with them. They
are cut without sleeves, having bands
over the shoulders, and just to reach
the top of the frills on the underbody.
Their edges are pinked or finished
with hemstitching They may be
made of wide ribbon, and several over
bodies in various colors made to be
worn with one frock. Slips of silk
or null to match them will bring the
frock into harmony with any color
scheme, but they are prettiest when
worn over white with color confined
to the overbodice and hair ribbons.
Very handsome and SNOWY party
dresses for the small girl are made
by joining fine val or other lingerie
lace insertion to embroidered organdie
insertion in alternating rows, by
means of hemstitching. Although the
lace, embroidery and hemstitching
are all machine made the effect OF
these in combination is fine. The in
sertions must be basted together at
home and the hemstitching done by
someone who has the proper machine
for it.
There is a fad for having a hat or
little bonnet made to match the lin
gerie party frock, and pretty exam
pie is shown in the picture given here.

BASKET MAKING WITH GRASSES.
light. by A. Nicely IIall.)

The baskets are built of coils OF
grasses, each made of several strands
of grasses, and upon the care with
which the grasses are assembled and
the turns of the coil Joined to one
another, depends the success of the
basket. In gathering the grasses
pull long ones, because less splicing
will be necessary with them.
