Elaborate
Garb Silly
for Babies
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALLER FEhGUS ON
Women are susceptible to adroit
fiattery, especially where their chill
dren are concerned. The expensive
shops always take this quality into
account when dealing with us.
The other day friend and I were
paying a visit to a sumptuous estab-
lishment and listened in on an in
teresting sale. A couple Of nicely
groomed, but only moderately rich,
women we're standing with the sales
lady before q show case Respondent
with baby clothes.
1t was an artistic layout: The
usual stork on one leg; bassirette
lined with tafeta; tiny shoes,
rattles; gaudy blankets and teddy
bears
The three were examining an
elaborate little coat for a 3-month-
old child. 1t was made of shell pink
chiffon with an inner lining of silk
in the same shade and had the re-
quired amount of faggoting and
hemstitching and drawn work and
French knots and shocking and
what not that is supposed to enhance
baby garments.
The salesgirl was Turing them on.
using sentiment for bait.
Isn't this the darling thing, MIS-.
Jones? Really two coats in one,
you see. How adorable your sweet
little midget would be in it! l SIM
ply adore tiny babies. I just love
to dress them up. I always think
Of roses when 1 see them, the dear,
cuddly, understanding angels"
Mrs. Jones fell. All three women
we're kidding themselves along, of
course. Their good sense shouted
that such gorgeous raiment was not
suitable for an infant, and that
nothing comes so near being fool
iSh extravaganza as silk and satin
and chiffons for tots. But senti-
ment and poiSe won the day.
We all can agree with the astute
saleslady that babies are adorable.
But we also know that it is only
after a good bath and a rub down
with some perfumed talcum that
they ever smell like roses.
They have, too, habit of gurgling
and drooling and splitting that is
decidedly hard on chiffon. They love
to chew on everything that comes
within reach of their fists and when
it comes to this habit they are no
respeCtors of silk.
Throwing pearls before swine is
sound good sense as compared to
spending small fortune on infants
dress up clothes. No baby Of any
intelligence likes being dolled up and
all Of them prefer the nude state.
With them it's comfort before
everything and heaven help the
| bonnet string that gets into their
clutches.

CODNflEll. IVY, DIV style Sources
NEW YORK. April l2.-That a
positive climax OF the trend IN
dressmaker technique has been
reached is the most convincing
manifestation of the import styles.
The 'dreSsmaker type" designa-
ton has been more in use in de-
scribing the new seasons fashions
this year than any other one term.
as it definitely halls the most im-
portant factor for style at present
The dreSSmaker touch is appar-
ent in simplest trocks-" simplest
being a relative term, for actually
hardly anything is simple, as wit
ness the blouse, skirt and children's
wear.
The "dreSsmaker technique" ar
rieS with it two connotationS-a
generally softer personality and a
very much worked-up composition.
And these the Paris couturiers have
developed with infinite detail.
Vast Detail in Skirts
1t is in skirts chiefly that a vast
amount of detail and intricate de-
sign occurs, and thus we sec a sinale
f1ounce that is cut circularlv To
begin with. then Slashed. shaped ct
the top with fan-shaped seams, and
finally irreguIarly scalloped aud
cut at both top and bottom.
All this work, fortunately. is not
obvious except in so far as it pro-
duces individuality in tho shaping
of the garment, but its presence
never fails to impress the woman
who may question the necessarily
higher price of frock with this
workmanship.
Touches Given Lingeria
While the "dressmaker technique"
description is applied to everything
else besides dresses, it seems to be
inseparable with the vogue for one
piece dresss, nearly always Of
princess or semi princess develop
ment
Trimming details such as scarfs
and lingerie touches that contribute
to the "dressmaker technique" are
strongly evident in the imports.

says that he is also in the market for

silver foxes have become immensely
popular in both Norway and Sweden
in recent months, and have proved a
very satisfactory source of profits.
