the tourists millinery-the resort mats
probably-that entice even the stay-at-

headwear and donning something that
has promise of spring in 1t.
Spring millinery is survival OF the

styles that appear at the winter re-
Sorts with the addition of models IN
which variations in the use of mate
rials appear. Already the seal OF ap-

NHOTHERS owe Il rising vote of

genious creators OF children's clothes
this spring. First, because these
clothes are so simple and pretty, and
next, because they are so well made.
Even a fastidious needlewoman can
content herself with ready-made clothes
for her children. But If the ready
made things are higher-priced than
suits her, then she can copy them at
home, buying materials from the mer-
chants near her and gratefully follow
ing the lead of skillful and keen
designers who spend their time think
ing up ways for making children's
clothes. One would have to be born

the responsibility of designing as well
as sewing at home?

Many Wraps Are White.

For southern wear many of the
wraps being prepared by the specially
shops follow the mode of the old time
French cape known as the "visite."
This was a quaint, long, narrow affair
gathered up about the neck. This model
was followed out at one place in white
velvet gathered to a band of ermine
and lined with pomegranate red crepe
de chine. White wraps are. by the
way. being exploited much for the
