little girl shouldn't be clothes con-
scious and vain. but she should be
taught at an early age to take pride
In her appearance and she should
be allowed some voice In what she
Is to wear.
Adults nearly always feel in

for them to wear. Not that they
don't make mistakes. They often do
make mistakes and have to wear
them. but not without suffering the
consequences Of not feeling night:
The clothes In which you feel
