Here a tuniic falls over a slim un- derskirt in a very graceful and youth ful manner. Wide pockets and full lines over the hips add a suggestion of youth. There can be no doubt of the fact that the little frock was es- pecial1y designed for the hottest of summer afternoons, and for the plans of the woman who makes her own clothes.
 Sheerest summer materials should be used for this model. There are any number of figured voiles and georgettes which will look extremely well made up thus
 The coolest of color schemes uses figured green material with white. The white may be organdie, for the collar, cuffs and girdle demand some thing that will stand out in a snappy, decided line. The little balls dangling from the pockets and the collar shoud be crocheted of white cotton.
 How would you like red and white as a color scheme? The shops are showing many materials with charm ing red dots, which will be just the thing for the blouse and overskirt. The rest of the frock must be white, of course. With this color sch heme the cherries in pace of the crocheted balls.
 Organdie, swiss, dimity. voiile and foulard may all be used with great success for this model.
