Many of the choicest ones are made at

gether it may be said that blOuses and

In way to set off very prettily the
abundant embroidery in silk floss that
adOrns it. The collar. sleeve and
skirt of the smock are encircled with
this work, which usually Is done in
colors, one like that in the crepe and
one contrasting. In the smock pic
tured the sleeves are three-Quar-
ters length-a safe choice since
it is possible to shorten them for mid
summer. and novel feature appears
In the narrow velvet ribbon threaded
through eyelets in the embroidery.
For contining the smOck at the
waist line the choice lies between mar

seems an appropriate finish for q
