Invading Foreign Shops
Offer COlOrful Products

zion OF the little shops Is TO be l.
rather a problem. IL Is obvious
these foreign friends must earn a
living. self-expression In their shops
seems 70 be the chosen medium. our
own manner OF absorption is what
seems TO be a matter for appropriate
adjustment.
The peasant linens. plain or EN-.
broidered. make fine and durable
rompeIs and school dresses for chill
dren. The Polish beaten cloth made
into golf garments Is warm. durable
and attractive for outdoor sport use.
The gay mittens and scarfs. caps
and sweaters are excellent for tee
skating. Russian blouses In fine
embroidered linens and muslins for
school use are pretty. Many OF the
artists and girls and men in offices
are using the foreign smocks of
linen and other materials that are
plain or embroidered Where the
colors are too gay the girls are hav.
ing the garments dyed and the work
takes on varying shades according
10 their original embroidery colors.
which makes he things very sttrac-
tive.
So 10 becomes a question OF adapt.
ing and adopting for us our textile
purchases. A man recently advised
young men to seek employment and
pleasure IN South American travel,
for Europe. he said. had gone stale"
Probably that may account for the
influx OF the small shopkeepers 70
this country. One OF the latest shops
offers Moroccan wares. gigantic stools
OF leather. such As are used al home
in place OF chairs, in combination
colors. The prices are very high and
the things are not disable IN the or
binary house or apartment. The
slip-on shoes would never intrigue
u men much less the women. We
tremble for the contents Of our
Christmas stockings II our families
and friends go foreign shopping. II
Is so hard 10 be thankful for things
we must learn 70 like. We do not
decry the wares. but simply regret
we cannot absorb more OF them into
our daily needs.
