 score. Truly surprising 1t is. what the designers and manufacturers shave done with singham; some of these frocks are distinguished affairs and one may pay a substantial price for costume that a year ago one would not have worn in the. kitchen on the maids day out.
 Finer Qualities Best To PuEchase. The shops are flooded with cheap grades of gingham, and with cos tunes made of cheap grades of ging- ham, but in buying or wearing a fabric so lately of humble classa as far as grown up costume is concerned lit is best to have a fine and beau tiful quality or none at all. A first quality gingham will retain its per feet color through countless laundef- ings and the pattern Will be clear and beautiful until the last shred of fabric remains. Gingham of this grade costs as much as fine printed voile-eyen as much as silk used to cost in the good old days of several years agone. So it is to be expected that3sa smartly built frock of best Scotch gingham may not be bought for a penny. But such, frock will wear and wear--no sun will be able

white slippers have black kid trim ming and the flesh tinted silk stock ings have black clocks. Note how simply. yet how gracefully this little frock istmade.S The organdy tunic, pleated at the shoulder line. is trimmed with a broad band of the gingham and small pearl buttons are sewed along the upper edge of this trimming band. A similar band fin- ishes the loose organdy sleeve. A straight panel of ginghan runs down

 reality it is of white lawn at the
 sides, under the sheer tunic of or

 Gingllan.
 Though not as cool and dainty as the organdy and gingham combina- tions, the sport blends of gingham with galatea, khaki and chambray are considered very smart and modern.

 toE fade it out, and no laundering And-as one far-sighted little woman puts it-"after it has. been cut over for little girl. what is left of 1t will do for the most enchanting rag rugs.' And right here it is pertinent to sug- gest that the woman who studies economy and conservation in her household, will save all the family silk hose and all the scraps of ginghan that can be collected. Cut into strips and sewed together. the two will weave into really beautiful rugs, round or oblong, and of a type very fashionable now for summer bed rooms.
 Simple Styles Best In Gingham.
 Gingham in itself is so striking especially when the pattern is in bright colors - that the prettiest frocks are those of quite simple type. The best trimmings are made with strips of the material used in bias effect and sometimes tiny corded pip ings of plain color are set along the edges of these bias trimmings to, throw them into higher relief. A lit-i tie white in collar and cuffs is also effective, bringing out the color in the gingham frock, yet softly reliey-

and the slimness of the figure be- meath.
 A middy with a sailor collar run ming all the way down the v-shaped neck opening slightly different style---is shown in another picture: and the arnfholes in this model are not as low as in the typical sailor middy first described. The sailor middy is in smarter style and is a more expensive model, but the gar nent worn with the gym. suit an .swers its purpose very well; it does not need to be quite as smart as the middy worn on tennis court or golf course. The place of places for a middy, of coufse. is on a boat Any one who imagines the middy is out of style, a garment discarded by Dame Fashion, will change her opinion if she happens to be in the vicinity of a yacht club harbor these days. On board all the yachts, from the big, magnificent steam yachts and schoon- CTS down, to the saucy little gasoline cruisers and yaw1s. mfddies are worn by women of all ages; and hot seldom the middy. is worn ashore when the

The Wild FloaUer Garden

the wild flowers were not 50
 plentiful along the highways and
 byways. some of them would be considered very rare and beautiful specimens, fit for any stately private garden And indeed many a garden would be, the prettier for a few of these humble roadside friends. Gut in the country, of course, where wild flowers may be picked in abundance from the fields. one would hardly take the trouble to plant them in gardens. but in back yard garden in town: or even garden in a suburban place wild flowers are rarities to be treas ured. Most or the fine supurban towns near a city are kept up like parks--no weed and no wild flower has ever opportunity to grow; and so the suburban dweller, living in riot of roses. pansies, plllox, mignonette and other lovely garden favorites, may have homesick longing for a gentian or a wax-white Star of Bethlehem.
 These wild flowers may be grown in any garden that has the proper soil conditions and plenty Of sunlight, and the seeds may be obtaiiied from any good seed merchant Laurel with it's

affair which suggests practical rather than picturesque usages. Very popu- lar knitting bags are made of khaki cloth. The bag has two sides. each shaped like a shield; the shield sides being Joined by a gusset of the ma terial, set in around sides and bottom. Narrow red, white and blue ribbon IS used to cover all, seams where shields and gussess are stitched to- gether and the ribbon binding out lines the top of the shield also. The bag hangs from handles of wide, blue grosgrain ribbon, attached to the points at the center-top of each shield.
 Another knitting bag is for Red Cross needlework or knitting work. Many women are knitting cotton washcloths or compress pads for the ambulance service, and this work is kept in a Red Cross bag, made of white muslin of simple. rectangular shape. the upper edges shirred over light wooden rods. White cords attached at the ends of these rods. form handles that may be slipped over the arm. On one side of the bag is printed shield with the words Red Cross above it. This device and the letters are worked in red cotton on the white material of the bag.

color scheme is subdued wisely. witr a black straw sport hat and black footwear. There are combinations also of blue sgalatea with blue and white plaid ging am. am ' and of green wool jersey with greeht plaid gipghans, and nothing is smarter for the coun-5 try. club just now. than a costume of this sort
 At Ardslcy the other day tall young woman wore a. really dfstin- guished costume of g:ngham. a cos tune so simple.in design that it stood out with definite distinction among 2 host of smart, summer frocks. It was built of gingfam in a checked pattern: of blue and black on white. the prevailing tone being haue. The skirt was cut to give large. saddle-bsg pockets over the hips, and the sur plice bodice had ends that extended around to form a knotted sash at the back. Very tall, pointed cuffs. and a deep. collar <were of white piaue. White slippers and stockings. a white hat with pIeated blue ribbon and g white and blue parasol completed the charming toilette.

Gentian, Star of Bethlehem and pink Marsh Mar row require rather damp soil and plenty of sun. Wild Aster with its delicate blue flowers. will grow in any soil, sun or shade. Golden Rod is also extremely hard as to soil though it must have sunshine. Golden Rod, kept by itself in solid bank of yellow, is very handsome in garden. Field daisies should not be brought into a garden as they are rank growers and will soon over-run everything else; or cause deal of trouble in up-rooting

Snue Berry Boxes for the Garden

roots. Prepare the new growing place by punching a. hole in the ground with a "dibber"; this is much better than digging the hole with a trowe, for not one amateur gardener in ten can dig a hole and plant seeding in a perpendicular position. The trowel and sliding soil make a slant ing hole and the little plant Ieahs to one side or the other. The "dibber'' is a sort of tall cone, made of wood and it makes just the sort of cor nucopia shaped opening needed for the little. plant. You can buy "dibber" or make one yourself with short bit of wood and jack knife. with the aid of "dibber'' twenty seedlings can be transplanted in no time at all. If the soil is very dry. pour little wa ter into the cornucopia hole insert the plant. press soil firmly about it's base and the operation Is complete. Next day. if the sun is hot, place inverted berry boxes over the young plants to afford shade until the roots have taken strong hold of the new soil.

plaids that would waste,a deal of ma terial in the cutting-out. were it not possible to turn the fabric on, either side.
 Care In Cutting Out Essential.
 Take the plaid gingham sport frock with pleated skirt, for example. In such frock great care must be ex- ercised in cutting out the sections, or the result may be very bad, and hope lessly amateurish. The pattern in both sleeves must be accurately matched and pinned together before cutting, or the crosswise stripes may be several inches higher on one arm than oh the other. The same holds true of the fronts of. the bodice and of the pockets. which are cut from bias strips of the material. \ Several breadths went into the making of the pleated skirt, and each breadth had to be cut so that it's crosswise stripes tallied with the stfipes in the next breadth. One heed. not be quite so accurate in cutting out checked gingham, but for a plaid froek it Is wisest to purchase two yards more than an ordinary frock of the style contemplated would require, to allow for the matching of the pattern. The pleated frock just mentioned has a green and tan plaid pattern; the belt is piped with plain green linen and buttons and belt buckle are of green composition. The collar and cuffs are of sheer white organdy, not hemm ed, but finished daintily with a. picot edge.
 Blue and tan is the color scheme of the checked pattern in another ging- ham frocl. This model is admira bIy simple The gathered skirt. trimmed near the hem with a wide bias band, has large square pockets over the hips. The blouse opens in revers and the sleeves have turned back gingham cuffs. A collar of white pique lends a note of fresh daintiness to the morning costume, and a smart sport hat and white footwear make the lit tie costume all that it should be.
 Organdy And Gingtam A Dainty
 Combination.
 One of the clever things the de signers have done, is the combination of gingham with. organdy-an idea entirely new this season. Usually l rather dainty ginghams in pastel col bring are selected to mate with the organdy though there, are some very smart frocks with red and white checked gingham used in this way A model pictured shows white organdy in combination with plaid pink and white gingham, and a tiny line of black edging the pink plaid makes the frock extra smart This note of black has been echoed in the footwear. the

This picturesdue, sailor laddie garb is only for the slender maid of rather boyish proportions. A large bust makes impossible the boyish, fiat line at the front. and large hips spoil the straight. yet tapering silhouette that middy should give. The simmer the effect below the hips, and the narrower the skirt, the more pro- nounced is the contrast between the loose n,iddy and its wearer's slender ness, and only when this contrast is evident, between loose upper garment, and slim, narrow skirt, is a middy at it's best. Some very slender young girls even wear the middy gathered in. at the hip. and finished with a flat hem or belt which buttons closely around the hips, to accentuate the contrast between the loose garment

 A middy in any color but white or navy blue.s is not a middy. The white model is usually ot galatea or heavy white linen, or of white duck in the cheaper models. Blue middies are of Hannel or serge with black braid trim ming and black silk tie. And this matter of tie is important in the style of your middy. skimpy tie is deplorable and will spoil the whole effect Have as big ind picturesque a tie as you canA-big in width. that is. not in length; the tie must have a loose knot and short. flowing ends.

H HF--as the famous old saying goes;
 Every lass loves sailor." 1t
 might be claimed with equal cer-
 tttude that .-evexy lass loves a sailors middy." No type of. garment, excepting, perhaps. the shirtwaist, has maintained Its hold on feminine fancy through years and years, like the middy. It was worn. 1t is worn and in all likelihood it will continue to be worn through the seasons, for not only is it comfortable--the most com- fortable garment in the world next to a kimono-but 1t is also pic- turesque. natty and trim The ideal sport accessory, it is. and nothing seems able to dislodge 1t from favor.
 Being a garment of nautical origin, 1t looks best when conforming strictly to the nautical pattern There are all sorts of "middies" put out by ambi- tious manufacturers; middies with sashes. middies buttoned down the front or down the back, rniddies of silk of khaki. even of Georgette and 'chifzors but none of these hybrid af- fairs have been able to displace one iota the jaunty. jolly sailor middy with its picturesque knotted tie and its GAG*AOA rAApA OA0SISQ UT DAFreQ sleeve. Two views of correct sailor middy are given In one view the niddy is part of Q tennis costume: in the other 1t accompanies golf rig. In either capacity 1t is admirable and leaves nothing to be desired in the way of good looks and perfect comfort.
 The middy pictured is of fine, soft galatea with collar and cuffs of blue linen. trimmed with narrow white braid. There Is no fullness at the shoulder but it Is cut on such gener- ous lines that 1t hangs loosely on the figure. This graceful looseness is achieved By cutting the shoulders very wide, 90 that the arm size comes sev- era1 inches below the ordinary arm- hole of bodice. The sleeve Is set in without any fullness and 1t is pIeated, not gathered into the flat cuff. This is an important point, for the middy is 50 loose in its lines that gathers anywhere might make It baeey and

ing it. One frock on today's page has no contrasting trimming at all, the only relief to the printed pattern for this is a fir ock of colored print, not of actual gingham weave-being in collar of very fine hand -embroid- cred lawn. The printed design of the material is in an aIlover effect of rose and green on a paler pink ground. The difference between such a print and gingham is. that the print has a right and wrong side while gingham. because the color is woven in, is alike on both sides. This is. fortunate. since so many of the patterns are bold

bulky. There Is no front opening, the garment slipping over the. head by means of the roomy collar opening 'Somettmes few eyelets with cord lacing are placed below the. collar in front. but this is not supposed to be necessary, and the eyelets are omitted when the middy runs true to nautical type,
 very few homemade middies have tne style and good looks of the ready made models of best type, for the tendency is, in home cutting, to get the lines Zoo close to the figure and the collar opening too small and trim. It is the middy's jaunty looseness that makes 1t good looking and sailor-like in suggestion. It, goes without say- ing that no woman of pronounced figure curves should wear a middv

at the lower edge. The latter gives a more graceful. middy line. Many girls are making these middies for them selves out of the heavy blue or gray wool u5ed for the army sweaters, and there is a brownish green wool also, that makes good looking shetland middy. There is a fad for the sleeve less sweater-and it is. oh so much quicker to kritAbut these models af- ford very little pnotecttonf from lehists they are simply g fad and haxe, no real use whatever. A knitted worsted garment is supposed to keep one warm when one is in danger Of being chilled, and 1t is not likely the faddish, sleeve less sweater will have very pro- loriged day.
