Summer Clothes For
The Growing Children

During the hot months children
should wear Just as little clothing as
possible. Babies require only a diaper
and one other garment, while run
about babies and children up to five
will be amply clothed in waist and
drawers, with one outer garment. pref
erably cotton slip, apron or rompers
or one of the many similar garments
Illustrated in the pattern books.
The one piece dress is a great boon
to busy mothers, being easy to make
and to wash and iron. If the kimono
sleeve is used the dress will be cooler
but in some garments the set in sleeve
is less clumsy and wears better Romp-
ers loose at the knee and low necked
and short sleeved may be used for lit
tie girls and boys alike. Denim over
alls are rather cumbersome for the hot
test weather, but are adapted to cool
days.
Starched, frilled and fussy garments
are all alike unsuitable for young chill
dren, whose clothing should be such as
will make them perfectly comfortable
and permit the freest play. No child
should have to think of his garments
during the play hours. He should, of
course, be subject to reasonable re-
strictions upon willful or mischievous
soiling or destruction of his clothing.
Cotton is the best material for out
side garments since child of this age
should have no clothes that cannot. be
washed.
