HE original Winter sports cos- tumes came to us from Nor- way, Sweden, Switzerland and other countries provided with | a_lavish supply of Winter snows. But they did not come to us| direct. France got hold of them first | and rearranged and reconstructed | them to meet her ideas of feminine | smartness. And the remarkable thing about it is that the French dressmakers in #dding the touch of smartness have | not done away with practical useful- ness. For skiing you may choose either knickers or so-called Norwegian breeches. The knickers are made | somewhat like riding breeches. with!be worn over the head or.detached: & deep cuff that may be fastened se- curely beneath the woolen socks or stockings. The Norwegian breeches are made straight—much like modern trousers—only that the fullness is drawn into a cuff just about the an- kles, where it is held by the short socks and tops boot. | For ekating or toboganning you may wear your skiing cvstume if you like—though many young women in- stead choose short skirts with close bloomers beneath. There are short | tweed skirts, skirts of waterproofed | woolen material and bright colored iveteen skirts made in circular pat- ern for skating or with front pleats for other Winter sports wear. Blanket coats are excellent for all sorts of Winter sports. They are made hip length with straps around the wrists and belts around the waist with a closely strapped hood that may if desired. - The material of one of these coats that 1 saw the other day was wide-striped blanketing in white, | green, red. yellow and black.

He may seem to enjoy being bounced about, but his delicate nervous mech- anism reacts by waking him up in the middle of the night. Likewise the night-owl baby, who is taken on fes- tive visits or o the movies, is not go- ing to xleep placidly on those nights when his elders elect 1o stay at home. Undress the baby before bedtime. Put him in warm room with only o band,and diapei. and let him stretch and wriggle to his heart's coftent for a half hour before he is nursed and put in bed for the night. That is all the recreation he needs, and if father and mother will leave him alone, they n enjoy the treat. too.
