Making Buttonholes.

The first thing in making a button
hole is to cut the hole. II possible,
use buttonho1e scissors. II not, fold
straight with the thread of the cloth.
Always leave at least a quarter of an
inch on the edge Of the cloth before
you begin to cut buttonhole
Strengthen &he edges of the button
hole now by carrying a thread along
it all the way around, near enough to
be covered easily by the buttonhole
stitch. Overcast with fine thread to
prevent the hole from raveling while
it is being worked. This is not neces-
sary with all kinds Of cloth. but is
very important with some. Use only
enough thread in overcasting to pre-
vent the raveling. The depth Of a
buttonhole stitch depends on the kind
of cloth. but generally the shorter
the stitch the better the buttonhole
will look.
To work the edge, begin one thread
beyond the edge of the slit. Holding
the buttonhole along the cushion of
the left forhnger with the folded
edge of cloth to the left. place the
needle in the slit under the lower
edge of the buttonhole and draw it
half way through. With the needle
still pointing to you. take up the
double thread at the eye OF the
needle and place it under the point.
passing from right to left Draw
the needle and thread out and from
you. so that the purl or twist comes
to the edge Of the slit. Place tho
stitches about the width Of the thread
apart to avoid crowded look. and
make an edge very even. drm and
hard. The thread must :. drawn
steadily all the way. but not tight.
else the edge will be rough. Be care
full not to stretch the slit In WORKING
the edge; when both edges are m
ished they should just touch. The

The same thing happened in Amer
decoiletage of the French came over
to America, was accepted by the smart
women, then by all women. Criticism
ceased. People forgot that high COL
lars we're worn once upon time.
The majority of the women cannot
imagine how they would feel in a
gown that carried itself up to the
ears. They will soon have that
chance. If any one wants the high
collar. they are not even saying it in
a whisper. The dressmakers want the
change and they will probably carry
their fight through to victory.
If we do accept the high collar in
its primitive sense, will we go on to
fantastic thangs. such as piccadilly
ruffs. Elizabethan lace collars, wide
wheels of transparent lace or chifon?
The latter is the dominant fashion
among high collars in France. Even
