NEW WASH FROCKS
FOR CHILDREN

MOT in many years have there bsen
IN so many colored wash dresses for.
even wee children. A few years ago very
careful mammas thought that pure
white was the only color suitable for
the child under five or six. But now. in
spite of the dye problems that might
lead one to avoid colored goods because
of their scarcity and high price, we find
even the toddlers dressed in colored
bingham. percales and chambray,
piques cordelins and linens, either in
color or in white. :.
The childrens dresses this year and
he children's coats also. show tend
ency to ape grown-up peoples clothes
la having very elaborate pockets, many
of these standing well of from the
childs figure, following the style OF
grown-up peoples pockets.
When a frock or a coat is chosen for
play purposes, however. pockets OF this
best a child's pocket is a temptation as
most inviting receptacle for stones.
pebbles and various sorts of vegeta-
ton. When the pocket is large and
open-mouthed this temptation is one
that no normal child can resist II there
are pockets they ought not to be very
wide at the top, and when they are used
merely for decoration it is a good idea,
If possible, to stitch them close.
Many of the children's cloaks show
capes terminating in hood effects at
the back. The favorite decoration Of
these hoods is long silk tassel Chill
dren's coats. like those of grown-ups,
are almost all belted in at the waist
In spite of the fact that navy blue is
not enjoying so much of vogue this
year-or, at least. has not been pushed
so much by the dealers-as in other
seasons. navy blue serge is still the
best seller when it comes to coats and
heavy summer frocks for girls over
seven or eight. Besides navy blue there
is considerable fashion for checks and
plaids but these are usually used in
contrast with plain color.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-04-29

economists urge that the American
woman should not buy these frocks or
encourage the shops to send to Paris
for them, but remain true to American
goods The women who buy the orig
inal French gowns are in such tiny
minority that what they do is Of no inn
portance whatever. What the American
shop and dressmaker want is to see
what Paris offers to us as an aid to ac-
complishing our clothes in the best
possible manner.
The most expensive frock from
France. under this movement of
thought. is worthy of being studied as
inspiration for Bingham, striped
lawn, a bandanna trimmed muslin.
The woman who is getting ready to
indulge in an orgy of sewing. and see
ing the artistic and serviceable posi-
bilites of the colorful cottons, should
be aware that it is tho opinion Of the
experts that the hour of the barreled
silhouette is over France experiment.

fabric at the hips as early as last Janu-
airy, and it ran rampant over the spring
apparel, but there is SO much evidence
on every side that the silhouette known
as the Egyptian is preferred. and will

touched with embroidery, there is hope
for every one.
No wonder the sewing machines are
being oiled and cleaned and patterns
are being sought and the shops searched
for good-looking ginghams and Turkey
red and candy striped muslins and
black and white polka dot lawns and
bandanna handkerchiefs bought to pre-
pare for veritable orgy of sewing.
The best way to go at the making Of
all these inexpensive frocks is to copy,
as far as taste and opportunity allow,
the gowns of high degree. There are
marked differences between gowns for
the formal and the informal hours, and
the knowledge and application of these
differences actually mark the line be-
tween a woman who is well dressed and
one who is not.
Consistency is a jewel In dressing as
well as In character, despite the fact
that most people believe with Mr.. Emer-
son that consistency is the vice of small
minds. There are several interpreta-
tons, however, of the word. and as 1t is
used to express a certain highly de-
veloped and trained sense of the suit
ability and relation of clothes and the
woman. it has no qualities of vice in it.
no, not even the minor and pleasant
qualities of it.
To trim Bingham with lace and rib
bon, to fashion 1t as though dealing
with satin. is to be inconsistent. To
wear Bingham to an afternoon tea or
dance is to be inconsistent But to

changed under the influence OF this
primitive straightness. Skirts. when
really fashionable, are from three to
four inches longer than they have been

lengthening process. because tho hem

There is fashion among the ex-'
pensive makers of apparel TO combine q.

followed in making wash frocks. A,
