 that he and Sybil had pulled off the

 Bedding had been an accomplice, working for the money he would

 Simplicity never fails to be chief factor of Paris couturiers in creating models for small girls. This little rig doesn't need a label. Its French origin is evident at a glance.
 It is cut straight from the neck line to hem at the front to give em- phasis to the brief French bodice. The smartly cut skirt that is circular and gored is attached to the bodice. The prettily arranged cape opened at the front, falls softly over the shoul- ders. It is attractively carried out in skipper blue dimity with tiny white dots. The collar is white organdie.
 Style No. 289 is designed for girls of 4, 6, 8 and 10 years. Yellow dotted swiss with soft cocoa brown organdie collar is effective. Linen, gingham, printed batiste, printed lawn and shantung make up lovely in this model. Size 8 requires yards, 35-inch with 1-2 yard and 39-inch contrast ing.
 Our large Fashion Magazine shows the latest Paris styles for spring and summer for adults and children. Also instructive lessons in sewing.

 She did not want them to have too much pie, cake and pastry. They did not have it at home, why should they have their tastes spoiled away from home?
 She looked over the camp faculty to see whether there was some one ready to teach handwork, out t-of-door crafts or even leisure-time work such as leather tooling or jewelry making.
