THAT WINTER
HOLIDAY

1t does not seem possible at pres
ent, since the average man cannot
get one vacation in summer and
another in winter. but ''if we talk
OF a five-day working week. why
not a two-vacation working year,"
Is the question raised in an edi-
torial in this weeks issue of Lib
erty Magazine.
1T is an underlying economic
fact that we have got production
80 geared up in this country that
we are producing more than we
can consume or spend" continues
the editorial. eve need two days
a week to spend what we earn in
: five. Presently we shall need two
vacations year to spend what we
earn the rest of the time. And.
anyway, as things are now for the
average city man. he really can
bear summer at home better than
winter.
In his car almost anyone, in the
city. can get to some kind OF water
for swimming" the editorial goes
on. Lakes and woods are not too
far away for week-ends. Tennis
is usually available for those who
like it, and golf always for those
who can afford it, Baseball takes
ones mind off the daily grin J, and
generally a SIMMER in town is not
bad. In winter these things are
sharply restricted; that is when a
vacation Is actually more needed
and most useful"

THE MODE IN MINIATURE
The Washington Times 15c Practical Pattern

Small frocks are borrowing all
the smart details of the grown
up mode, as the scalloped collar
and hem in Pattern 1912 show.
There is a quaint charm in this
model that makes it different
from the usual type of Riddles
frock. The ribbon neckband and
pert bow are most attractive.
Being essentially a dressy
frock, Pattern 1912 would be
charming in the. sheer erepes,
georgettes or, chiffons. A. soft
blue crepe with scallops picoted
in darker blue and the darker
tone repeated in ribbon would
create delightful little frock.
Organdie and wolfe are equally
attractive for this adorable
model, and may be had in the
most ravishing shades.
This pattern may be obtained
in sizes 2, A and 6. Size A re-
quires y yards of 40-inch ma
terial and u yard of ribbon.
This model is easy to make.
No dressmaking experience is
necessary. Each pattern comes
to you with simple and exact in
structions, including yardage for
every size. A perfect fit is
guaranteed.

warm. Wearing it meant that you
had money in the bank, or should
have. When we thought OF fur
coats we thought in terms Of mink,
sable, chinchilla and ermine. Then
a changing psychology of desire
made the wearing of such furs
futile. because the aim and end of
feminine fashions became charm
OF appearance. We wanted to look
like the allure Of a million dollars,
and not like that much money in
the bank. Now, T" shion-moti-
