frock of one material with the trimming
only in contrast. Tafeta also IS
suitable for this model. Dark blue
taffeta would make a very useful little
frock and it would be pretty to make
the collar and cuffs of white Georgette
crepe while the belt and tabs match
the dress. If more dressy frock is
wanted, the taffeta could be chosen
in a lighter blue or in rose color and the
trimming could be of the same ma
terial banded with narrow black
velvet ribbon.
For linen or any material that is
liable to shrink in the washing, 1t Is
advisable to forestall such condition
by shrinking before the garment is
cut out. To do this successfully,
place the piece of white linen in
scalding water, then transfer to cold
water and let soak thoroughly IN both.
Squeeze but do not wiring and hang in
the open air to drip. When it has
ceased dripping and is partly dry roll
in cloth and let stand for a few hours.
then press under a cloth, piece OF
old sheeting or something similar IS
good for the purpose, for ironing under
the cloth gives the new finish: 10 the
rinsing water, add Just tiny little
bit of borax and the linen will come
forth from the treatment like new.
Treat the colored linen in exactly the
same way only add to both hot water
and cold water generous supply OF
salt to keep the colors from running:
When you have treated the material
in this way it will endure the necessary
washings without change and without
injury.
The diagrams which accompany the
pattern show the parts laid out on
material thirty-six inches wide, which
is an accepted width for linen and
only one material is used, but the only
difference necessary for cutting from
two materials will be found in the
b arrangement of the peplum. To get
the effect illustrated, the stripes must be
cut on the cross and in the diagram
the pattern is placed lengthwise on the
fabric. To get the crossed effect. lay
the edge of the back marked by three
crosses on the crosswise fold and the
line of large circles in front and in side
portions crosswise. The REMAINING

these scallops All the ruffles are
finished with picot and upon the under
skirt of net is wide band Of the new
Valenciennes lace already mentioned
that makes charming effect yelled Is
it is by the plain net Of the dress itself.
The bodice is finished with half-low
neck and with loose hchu that IS
caught lust above the bust line with a
cameo pin, but there are close fitting
sleeves of the plain not edged with
little frills and there is fascinating
girdle that shows soft white satin. in
the folds Of which lilies Of the valley
are deity placed while these same
flowers are sewn here and there upon
the skirt in little punches to give
very charming result. Usually the
neck line for these frocks is hal-low
but the sleeves are of varying lengths.
Some girls will wear the very short
sleeves with gloves to meet them
others will wear sleeves that come just
a little below the elbows and Others
again will like the combination OF the
half-low neck and the long sleeves
that fall we'll over the hands that
promised to be a feature OF fashions

what the length of the skirt must be
before placing the pattern on the ma
terial. If the skirt is shorter than the
pattern, let the extra length serve for
the hem and if the extra length is not
as needed. If the skirt must be longer
than the pattern, allow the needed
length and also the hem. The seam
is placed for the girl Of average height.
Mark all around the outside edges
of the pattern for it includes the seams
and no calculation is necessary, then
mark the notches, do not cut them.
If you are using linen, do this marking
with tracing wheel. For some ma
terials it will be necessary to use
tailor's tacks or tailor's chalk to make
a good outline but where the tracing
wheel can be used, it provides the
simplest means. Mark all the circles
through the two thicknesses with the
tailor's tacks that have been described
in previous lessons, then while you are
making the blouse, lay the skirt aside.
The tiny little circles near each edge
indicate the basting and the sewing
line but these circles are not con-
sidered in the directions for making
that are printed on the envelope.
Turn the front edges of the blouse
under, first on the seam then on the
line of smaller circles and hem. Join
the shoulder edges as indicated. For
the lining, take up double seam, that
is, taking first tiny seam on the right
side then the second on the wrong side
stitching on the circles. The sleeves
are to be sewed to the armholes before
the under-arm seams are closed, there
fore, place them with the seams on the
right side taking care to bring the
notches exactly together and the single
circles at the shoulder seams. Take up
as small seam as possible, then turn
and stitch the second time on the per-
forated line. To make the short
sleeves that are shown in the illus
tration, gather at the lower edges.
Cut lining for the cuffs from the
white linen and join the ends of the
lining and OF the cuffs separately.
Press the seams open. then join the
shaped edges, turn on the seams and
haste carefully. Join the sleeves to
the st-a;oht edoes of the cuffs. the

The little blouse beneath which is

pongee in the natural color would be
pretty too, with the collar, cuffs, belt
and tabs of brighter color, as red or
blue, and since pongee is exceedingly
smart these suggestions will be useful.
The cotton gabardines are very beauti-
ful and also very serviceable. They
too can be had in just such stripes as
these. If a thinner and lighter cotton
frock is wanted, Bingham could be
used and the fine ginghams this
season are very beautiful in color.

pretty effect or the entire frock OF

the skirt could be made Of a heavier
material and the blouse and peplum OF
a lighter material. Striped handker-

with the skirt of heavier linen would
make a very smart effect and the

always satisfactory materials for, sum-

This is a Season of Nets and Organizes

when reeds or stiffening is inserted in
the foundation skirt that makes part
Of the dress itself The separate
farthinpale or hoop skirt or whatever
one NAV like to call it is exceedingly
apt to get out Of place and give ugly,
lines. The stiffening that is part OF
the costume is by far the safer one to
use. Many OF the dressmakers seem
to think that the skirt cannot be too
full, that they cannot be too much
massed over the hips. Skirts not in
frequently are seen arranged in cart
ridge plaits, but over widths used in
such ways is not graceful, is not be-
coming. The skirt Of moderate di.
mentions is always the better one and
it seems curious that just at season
when dealers are experiencing dith-
Guilty in obtaining generous supplies
of the fabrics, there should be an effort
to exaggerate the width Of the skirt.
The moderate width is always the
prettiest and the very full ones
seem waste under existing conditions.
Let us hope that good sense will pre-
vail and that skirts of moderate
dimensions will be the ones exploited
by the ones who lead in matters OF
dress. b. e..
Artificial flowers as trimming are
extensively used upon the frocks de-
signed for general summer use, lilies
of the valley are favorites. For the

flowers of similar sorts are the preferred
ones for we must have the effect Of

THIS year, there is very marked
tendency toward the use of wash
able net and it is perhaps as
dainty and as lovely a material for
the young girls frock as anything that
could be found. 1t is quite durable
and perhaps it is washable in sense,
but in these days we seldom send
dainty dresses to the laundry, the
cleaners art is the preferred one and
we use trimmings with that thought
in view. Net is for example extern
sively used with trimming of taffeta
and we see ribbon trimming upon
cotton fabrics and on organdie we see
velvet ribbon used in combination.
Whatever is pretty is correct in the
world Of fashion and the ribbon
trimmings are very lovely on cotton
