This frock is worn over plain white

der. The same materials provide an

the finishing is the same, with needle

There are heavier cottons, romper

Of very attractive ginghams in plaids

Gilpin observer., 1920-01-08

Here are two pretty frocks fu. eve
hing wear which offer choice be-
tween two extremes of designing; the
one at the left, about as simple as
an evening dress can be. and the other
elaborated in several ways. The lat
ter is an ambitious and finished affair
that leaves small chance for varia-
tions. 1t has been wrought out to the
last detail by a very capable designer,
and leaves no room for additional
touches. 1t must be accepted as it is,
or, at most, with very little change.
The simpler dress invites the imagina-
tion of it's owner to busy itself in elab-
Grating it-and there is nothing the in
genious young woman enjoys more
than ringing changes in her evening
dress.
The beautiful frock at the right has
an under-petticoat of net finished at
the bottom with a wide border of sill
yer lace. Over this a long and very
much wider tunic of chiffon velvet, in
rose color, fslls In irregular and ample
plaits that allow 1t to be caught up in
a drapery at the sides. The bottom of
the tunic Is cut In scallOps and finished
with rich embroidery of gold and
silver in sprays Of leaves and flowers.
Gilpin observer., 1920-01-08

The bodice reveals chehisette of sill
yer lace, and silver straps over the
shoulders, with the velvet crossed sur
plice fashion at the front and quite low
in the back-backs are neglected as
to clothes this season, finding them
selves, along with the arms, uncovered.
II they do any blushing 1t is not un-
seen.
The crowning glory of this brilliant
frock is the long and gorgeous ostrich
plume, mounted at the left side of the
bodice and skirt. But, however pre-
tentious and splendid 1t is, 1t is about
the only thing that can be changed in
this gown. 1t may be left off to be re-
placed by flowers or an ornament or
by nothing at all.
The frOck at the left, of blue and
silver brocade, is another example of
the surplice waist, but 1t has kimono
sleeves and a narrow girdle of silver.
In this frock there are several ways
In which 1t may be varied little. The
''V" may be made considerably lower
and chemisette introduced with it.
The long draperies Mt the sides may
be caught up with flowers or without.
and flowers or feathers worn at the
corsage.

Show windows In January blossom
with summery fabrics-sheer white
goods. beautiful ginghams and cham
brays, swiss embroideries and gay, ex-
Quisite organdies, along with whatever
novelties or less familiar weaves the
merchants have gathered. In cold
climates they hearten us to anticipate
the spring and get ready for it. Every
where these pretty fabrics appear in
company with frocks (and other
clothes for children) made of them, so
that foresighted mothers are inspired
to at the youngsters out for summer
long before 1t comes. It is cheerful
work for midwinter days and ought
to be pretty well finished by the time
the first robin begins "jollying" with
his pipings about spring.
Fine cottons, especially In white
goods. are to be used for blouses and
dresses for grown-ups, and there will
be considerable handwork In their
making. This return to favor Of fine
cotton materials and handwork Is a
cause for rejoicing on the part of
gentlewomen-the kind Of clothes they
enjoy are in the reach Of all Of them.
But the first thing that engages
mothers is the children's spring sew
ing. and here are two garments for the
little girl and tiny boy that are worth
considering. They are simple and
psstty. easy to launder and practical.
