A Junior Frock in Cotton P Poplin.

Very becoming lines are given to this junior frock Of dark blue poplin made ih one piece. It closes at the left shoulder and under the left arm. the neck to be finished with high or standing collar The plainness Of the front and hack are broken by box plaits. than which there is no more fashionable trimming just now. Deep cuffs finish the one-piece sleev- es. To reproduce the model for 8 girl of 15 vars requires 4 yards A. inch poplin. If timmed with braid, 6h yards are needed.
 As the back and front of the dress. have no seams, the home dressmaker starts her work with a minimum of detail. Place the back on along the lengthwise fold of the material, with the sleeve to the right of it, large 70" perforations resting on a 1engthwise thread. The collar comes next to the sleeve and Is laid along the lengthwise fold. To the right of the collar are the cuffs, then collows the front, with triple 'TTT' perfor- ations on the lengthwise fold.
 Opposite the back and sleeve and along the selvage of the material place the belt section. If contrasting material is used for the belt the pat tern should be laid upon the goods in the same way. he pocket and stay may be cut from the goods remaining after the sides of the front are gored.
 If desired. the patch pockets may be omitted. but hardly without pro test from the wearer, for every young girl adores a pocket.

However, in addition to this
splendid growth in sales, they have

ITO me the fact that dealers are

striking proof of the popularity which
Saxon has won for itself in the minds
of the motor buying public. 1t is, as

sMoTOR" NOW INCORRECT

William Guy Wall, chief engineer of
the builders of National twelve and
six-cylinder cars, says it will be q hard
job to get the public to say "engine"
instead of motor"
But the Society of Automobile En-
gineers has issued an edict declaring
that the term motor has been erron-
eously applied to the power plant of
an automobile and that 1t should be
called engine.
Literally a motor is merely a
means of transforming a certain type
of energy into power. and thus a steam
engine might as aptly be termed a
motor as machine operated by cleo
tricity,' said Mr.. Wall.
