II Social Calendar Is Busy,
Make Your Glamour Clothes
By Ertta Haley

CIRLS who are getting out of
~ school invariably find their So
cial calendars full to overflowing
these days and this calls for rather
a sizeable investment in what they
refer to as glamour togs.
No average family budget can
stand the strain of this because
there is necessarily an outlay for
clothing for other members of the
family. But if mother and daughter
take to the needle or sewing ma
chine, they can turn out two or three
formals that will do the trick.
A formal may look especially
tricky but for those of you who never
have sewed one, the news is a
wonderful surprise. It's much easier
than you think.
First of all, the fabrics you choose
are among the easiest to sew.
Organdie, eyelet and even tulle just
all seem to go where you want
them to while you run them on the
machine or let the needle traverse
the penciled or basted lines.
If you are inexperienced, choose
one of the simpler designs and ask
someone who knows whether the
material you are working with will
let itself be readily nodded into
something beautiful under your in
experienced fingers.
Stay away from severe fitted dres-
ses that LOOK deccptivcly easy. They
require a fitting skill that demands
years of cXrCr.C.Ce.
